Members Cat Posted May 19, 2009 Members Share Posted May 19, 2009 But that's Nikki. Love her or hate her, MTS is in complete command of the material. I should have used Eileen Davidson as an example, as she does no wrong in my eyes. I used MTS, though, as an example of a well-entrenched vet who knows her character inside-out. Clementine doesn't have command of her material. I don't think she knows who Mac is. Nobody does. Sometimes she looks absolutely petrified. And yet... and yet... there is something warm about her underneath that terrified brittleness. JMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ann_SS Posted May 19, 2009 Members Share Posted May 19, 2009 CF probably feels overwhelmed and uncertain. Soap scenes require so much dialogue, action, and being in the right position. There are also much fewer retakes, if any. Based on Nia's comments, Paul Rauch is being very tough on her on top of everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted May 19, 2009 Members Share Posted May 19, 2009 That's 'cause she can't do anything else but scream in that hideous, awful voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darn Posted May 19, 2009 Members Share Posted May 19, 2009 But in the few scenes she has they give her maybe one line of dialogue and she can barely spit that out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members YRBB Posted May 19, 2009 Members Share Posted May 19, 2009 Sorry, heyou got there first! She was the lovely first Mac! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members classicmoment Posted May 19, 2009 Members Share Posted May 19, 2009 She's obviously still trying to find her rythmn on the soap. I think, if it's possible, she gets the character or who the character is supposed to be but she has not yet found a way to adapt to the climate of Y&R. I mean she should try to fix that as soon as poss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Heyou Posted May 19, 2009 Members Share Posted May 19, 2009 An extension of herself. Clementine hasn't wowed me but she's no worse than some of those others that been on the show for an ETERNITY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted May 19, 2009 Members Share Posted May 19, 2009 Rachel Kimsey, please come back! Id much rather watch her as Mac than CF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted May 19, 2009 Members Share Posted May 19, 2009 At this point, before they cut bait, I'd like to see them: a. Give her constructive notes, and b. An acting coach or a mandate to see an acting coach (whom they recommend) If she still does not improve...it's time. I could see playing her minimally and giving her six-months-from-signing. Then, I hope she is a huge success. But if not...it's time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted May 19, 2009 Members Share Posted May 19, 2009 I agree. I thought she was good at the end of today's show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted May 19, 2009 Administrator Share Posted May 19, 2009 Agree. And I liked her in Wed's US episode - she was smiling and laughing. I think if they write for her and give her good scenes, she will shine. I haven't lost hope yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BadZoe Posted May 19, 2009 Members Share Posted May 19, 2009 I did at first but then she had those photo-album voice overs that were entirely over-hyper like something you'd expect to hear from excited Abby about her million dollar horse. CF even seemed to have less bags under the eyes, making me imagine Adam injecting her with something before her scenes to look so old and haggard.
