Ryan missed another bullet. There is definitely something shady about Reese.

WORD. Especially about Reese being the guy in the relationship. You really think Reese and Zach will bond, though? The fact that sort of resents Zach makes her immediately suspect in AMC World, no? Still, I am really liking Reese and Bianca. And AMC are not holding back on the kissage which I honestly thought they would shy away from.

I'm not 100% sold on Natalia either. You are right, for her to be the offspring of Jesse and a so-far great Rebecca, Natalia needs to stand out. She needs to be a young Tonya Lee Williams or Victoria Rowell. The resentment and fire should pour from her eyes. Perhaps she will grow on me like the actress who plays Randi has. Or perhaps DW will take her to one side and give her some tips to fine-tune her performance. She couldn't do worse than look at how he inhabits Jesse. Since she grew up with him, it would stand to reason that natalia has adopted some of Jesse's mannerisms.

And can I just give a shout-out to Cornelius Smith who gets better and better? I totally buy him as Angie and Jesse's son.

LOL. That spitting monkey thing NEVER gets old.

Preach! Sing it! Shout it out loud, baby!

Aren't comfortable? Eden's been playing an openly lesbian character for EIGHT YEARS! And I doubt that Tamara Braun signed on to play Bianca's love interest if she wasn't "completely comfortable" playing a lesbian.

Nonsense. Nonsense, I say.

And as for "sweeping comments," let me just say this... that would be true if fans of Zendall didn't hate on every single character that presented a challenge to Zendall. They hated Hannah. They hate Greenlee. They hate Annie... and now, coincidentally enough, they hate on Reese?

Please. Puh-leeze, I say.

What is it about Reese (of all people) that is perceived to be a threat to Zendall?

Was she holding a gun to Bianca and Zach's head re: a second baby? No. Though some might make the leap to say that it was probably all her idea (was it?), therefore all her fault.

Is she a threat to Zendall's marriage? LMAO. Don't think either Zach or a coma patient are her type.

But she is dating Bianca. Would people prefer Bianca alone and saintly and non-sexual and totally at the disposition of the Kane family with advice and comfort?

Is there hesitation at outright trashing of two beloved characters (Zach and Bianca), so the newbie becomes the whipping boy?

Honestly, I like Zendall but sometimes it seems that lines are being constantly drawn in the sand -- you are either with Zendall or against them. This is only going to kill the show if people start gunning hard against nearly every other character on the same damn show. It's a soap, you need a conflictual, ambiguous dynamic sometimes as well as the love and kisses and romance.

On GL, there was a very vocal Michelle/Danny fanbase which would not let anybody (I mean ANYBODY) breathe in the general direction of their favorite pairing. The result? Manny became totally isolated, any SL involving a third person tanked, and they had to be written off the show because the stories and their interaction with others just dried up.

Ummm....people need to stop assuming that one poster is the national spokesperson for all fans of Zach and Kendall.

Can they just give Debbi Morgan an Emmy. She is the most real actress in Daytime. I loved the little Dr's pow wow abut David. It seems so real to have people working at the hospital. I wouldn't mind a bigger focus on that group. Sigh, if only nurse Julia Keefer were still around.
