Members kelly1142 Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 I'm absolutely loving the chemistry between Flo/Susan and Flo/Hillary....FUN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members a2sassy Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 Who the hell gave Sarah a jolt of "umph" today? She was actually spot on bitch in that scene with Vanessa. And the courtroom drama today...LOVE it! Tea is such a bitch and I love every bit of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MTSRocks Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 Sarah was good today, but just like Adrianna this type of goodness always occurs close to when an actor is about to depart. Still can't wait to see her leave. Florencia has revitalized this show in spades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 I dont like the Zbox plot either. In this bad economy (which has been acknowledged on the show), sorry but Shane is just going to have to do without. I get where Rex is coming from but broke people dont go spending hundreds of dollars on some game system. We're in a recession. Tough luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RoseVioletDaisy Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 That's the thing that I'm having such a tough time with in terms of the Marty/Todd situation, the insertion of jealousy and other conventional relationship entanglements. What happened here wasn't a lovers spat, Todd committed very serious crimes against Marty again and we need to see her fighting him and Tea as a crusade for justice and dignity, not something spawned out of sexual jealousy or her running from whatever feelings she's supposed to have for him. I'm hoping that the scenes of Todd with Margaret the other day where the beginning of a shift in direction where Todd really starts to understand what he did. I really liked seeing him respond to Margaret's very Todd-like come-ons with the exact same answers that Marty would give him now if he said those things to her (and he would if he was alone with her) and Margaret pointing that out. I hope they follow through on that as this case progresses. Exactly. I get that Rex wants to swoop in and play hero but times are tough all over and he's not gonna do the kid any favors by pretending that they're immune. If Shane was five, I could understand it but he's old enough to get it even if he doesn't like it. I can't get over how fabulous Dorian still is. I adored her magnificent diva-hood when I was ten and still do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MTSRocks Posted December 19, 2008 Members Share Posted December 19, 2008 Thank God there are others who feel the same about the Z Box. I doubt people who are sitting at home because of this recession are enjoying watching rich folks buy a bunch of gifts, or squabbling over a petty gaming system. Sometimes I miss the middle class or true working family on soaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted December 19, 2008 Administrator Share Posted December 19, 2008 Just give Susan Haskell the Emmy for Supporting Actress right now! What an amazing performance once again. I can't get over how great these Nora/Tea and Marty/Tea scenes are. You have powerful actresses in a meaty storyline. It's just awesome to watch this kind of soap opera. I hate the Z-Box thing too. It makes Rex look like an idiot who's trying to buy his son's love. He's broke and yet he's willing to pay up to $600 for a gaming system? Idiot!! I hope so too, MTS. They've been the 2 best soaps this year. No other soaps come close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members detroitpiston Posted December 20, 2008 Author Members Share Posted December 20, 2008 ITA Toups! Susan, Hillary, and Florencia made today's show. Actresses like these are so rare nowadays. I really hope Flo ends up staying! The only thing I miss is Tea and Todd's fiery chemistry. Make's me wish Roger was still in the role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MTSRocks Posted December 20, 2008 Members Share Posted December 20, 2008 Jess Walton and Susan Haskell are two completely different performances though. Quite frankly, Judith Chapman is not even in the same range as of now (I think next year will be Judith's year though!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rangethatrover Posted December 20, 2008 Members Share Posted December 20, 2008 I love both Jess Walton and Susan Haskell. I think Susan's performances are above and beyond any actress this year. And yes, very different performances. And in all fairness, Susan's emmy performances did not even begin until November sweeps while Jess's were consistently excellent all year. I think based on tapes- Susan to me would win hands down. But Jess's understated emotional material is excellent stuff. Judith Chapman is just so one note and overblown I can't even take it. I hear Ellen Dolan has some good stuff this year as well. I have never seen an episode of ATWT in my life so I have no clue. I want Melody to get her due this year as lead Actress. That is my one hope. But you have Erika in Victors tomb and Kay and Marge and its a pretty cool race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MTSRocks Posted December 20, 2008 Members Share Posted December 20, 2008 Watching today's U.S. episode on Global, and if Chapman continues to play her role like this, she'll definitely be a surefire contender next year. I'm saying it right now, 2009 is Judith Chapman's year, and then she'll leave when her contract is up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rangethatrover Posted December 20, 2008 Members Share Posted December 20, 2008 I think she is a contender this year too actually. I wish I liked her more. I can't stand her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members leevo64 Posted December 20, 2008 Members Share Posted December 20, 2008 Susan Haskell should most definitely win for best supporting actress. And yes, Jess Walton's awesome too, but Judith Chapman's embarrassing to watch. She's SO cartoonish. I wish they had a best guest star award. Florencia and Tuc could get nominated.

Members MTSRocks Posted December 20, 2008 Members Share Posted December 20, 2008 ^^^She is, but next year should be epic for her. They do now. It's supposed to be introduced next year at the Emmy's (if there is one?). No? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
