Members SFK Posted January 16, 2009 Members Share Posted January 16, 2009 I'm sure mine's not the only mouth you took the words right out of. Anyone else have Powell Lord flashbacks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted January 16, 2009 Members Share Posted January 16, 2009 You know what's also sad? From the way Susan is playing it, I almost get the sense that Erica has to convince/remind herself that this is her son and she's supposed to have strong feelings for him. So tragic that Joshie is, so tragic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members leevo64 Posted January 16, 2009 Members Share Posted January 16, 2009 I hate the character of Krystal, but DAMN! Bobbie Eakes just got her first Emmy reel episode for 2009. What a great performance. I was transfixed. Now if only we could get all the other actors on the show to deliver like she did... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted January 16, 2009 Members Share Posted January 16, 2009 YAY for Angie... Give me a break for Jake. Jake's a piss poor excuse of a doctor -- not to mention he basically handed David the COS position by being an idiotic and hypocritical Martin and attempting to lie to the freakin' government about Brot in front of David. It's more Thorsten, I think. Zach has had other insufferable moments before. During the Budget Cut Killer Satin Slayer story Zach smacked a cup of coffee out of the hand of the bodyguard that was handing it to Kendall, berated the guard, and then told the guard to "CLEAN THAT UP!" I don't get why he plays his love for Kendall so unsympathetically, but he does. It's like whenever Kendall is involved, he will become this loud, angry insufferable jerk... which is one of the reasons I've grown to hate Zendall. Thorsten plays Zach's affection for other characters in a rather touching and almost sweet and endearing manner... but when it comes to Zach's affection for Kendall, it's like... Dude... is she your wife or your heroin addiction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LeClerc Posted January 16, 2009 Members Share Posted January 16, 2009 Although I think AMC would be just fine writing Krystal out and freeing up the money she earns for someone else, Bobbie Eakes is fantastic. Colin Egglesfield, on the other hand....well he definitely has not improved since those god-awful scenes where Josh had Babe close him up in a coffin.

Members marceline Posted January 16, 2009 Members Share Posted January 16, 2009 Bobbie Eakes was great today. And I like seeing Angie get her hands dirty. I was afraid she was headed toward sainted Mother Earth territory. But I hate hearing her prop Krystal. I've never bought that friendship. JR just gets on my nerves and something just seems wrong with Jacob Young. I'm beginning to think the actor is drunk, not the character. Amanda pregnant, a custody hearing for Jenny, we just got done with Gabby's birth...can this show PLEASE get away from the baby-based drama? It's bordering on self-parody.

Members DeeeDee Posted January 16, 2009 Members Share Posted January 16, 2009 Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted January 16, 2009 Members Share Posted January 16, 2009 It's always seemed plot pointy to me. From the moment Angie came back, Krystal crawled right up into her colon and settled in. I know part of the reason for that was so Angie could bring the audience up to speed on the J&A backstory by "explaining" it to Krystal but then Kwak started waxing on about "destiny" and "true love" and it was obvious they were going to be BFFs.

Members DeeeDee Posted January 16, 2009 Members Share Posted January 16, 2009 Angie & Krystal make good friends. Krystal's a babynapping skank but that was before Angie came back to PV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted January 16, 2009 Members Share Posted January 16, 2009 I agree, what IS it?? Something about him as always been "not right" to me. I actually liked him for about 5 min. when he first came to AMC though it seemed like he thought he was hot shiz for playing Luke AND Adam's so. Then of course Babe made him evil and he started trying to make his voice all deep and gravelly. The coup de grace was when he decided to pat himself on the back that year at the Emmys.

Members marceline Posted January 16, 2009 Members Share Posted January 16, 2009 To each their own. It's not like it drives me crazy and the actresses are good together but it doesn't work for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted January 16, 2009 Members Share Posted January 16, 2009 Well she and Krystal haven't been aces long enough for their friendship to withstand Krystal's betrayal of Tad. This is where recurring characters come in handy, let Angie air her stuff to Livia or Opal over lunch every once in a while. Krystal feels like one of those real life "friendships" that end once you break up with someone (and their friends). Angie sure as hell doesn't like Hayward, and Krystal screwed over one of her best friends, so if the writers make Angie "fight" for Krystal beyond "She's hurting, she needs to work her stuff out... but not on my time" it really won't work for me.

Members DeeeDee Posted January 16, 2009 Members Share Posted January 16, 2009 Yep. Jesse & Angie are Tad's friends first. Exactly. The Hubbards sympathize with Krystal but they'll never side with her over Thaddeus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted January 16, 2009 Members Share Posted January 16, 2009 Exactly, and it didn't always used to be like that. I much preferred Zach and the silent type that only on rare occasions would open up and show some sense of emotion. Myrtle for instance always could get him to open up, and in the early days of Zendall Kendall could too.... I mean thats when Thorsten was turning in emmy calibre stuff.... I mean I sit and read on these boards people constantly complaining about Neanderthal Ryan (myself included), and Zach for a time was the anti-Ryan. Now he is one in the same if not more annoying.
