To Queen Marie Antoinette, I mean Maria Arena Bell apparently...

She has to learn that her idea of "comedic relief" is falling flat to a good portion of her audience and it really isn't that funny anyway.

But let me guess, she's waiting to showcase this next year in another Emmy reel for Outstanding DRAMA Series. :rolleyes:

This show is managed terribly...

"Colleen" is another one they have no idea what to do with. I partly blame it on the actress, since they let her leave every 5 minutes to do a movie she wants to do, but if they haven't had any long-term plans for this character for YEARS now, why is she still here? Can't she be written for long-term, recast, or sent off to live with Traci in New York?

I mean, are they seriously going to drudge up her seat on the board again, TWO MONTHS after it was last played up for two episodes or so in May? Seriously? They expect us to be invested in this when it was dropped a million times since February?

Who is really running this show? They can't be that stupid, but maybe they are.

He recently turned 63.

Grrrr.....I just knew Adam was setting Patty up. And now Summer has a debilitiating condition? Patty's road to recovery (not redemption, notice) is getting longer and longer. The silver lining is that Adam and PAtty don't seem to be lovers at this point, so that still leaves my hopes high for Pane (Patty and Cane).

So Jack, Sharon, Phyllis and Nick are all friends again! Yay! Enjoy it now suckas till Sharon gets horny again. Or Nick remembers that redheads aren't the freshest produce at the market.

So Victor is truly making some of the worst decisions I've EVER seen him make. First he hires whack-job (lovable though she is) and now is hiring Glo-Jeff to do in Colleen, who hire Jill's one-night-only stud (Ruxton's happy!) to get her drunk and make "Colleen Goes Wild!" DVD's - please show us your tatas, Collie! Make your two days of work this month count for something! Perhaps this could be her "big story" after all?

I actually have always gotten the feeling that Braeden doens't care how smart Victor comes off.. as long as Victor come out the winner... the Barney bad-ass. I always felt that Braeden's main concern has been Victor's alpha male status and his virility. (Hence, his sperm being able to leap tall buildings in a single bound.)

I guess we should be thankful for some things, a year ago, Ana was singing in every other episode it seemed. She hasn't been on in what seems like months, and that's definitely one good thing I can say right now...

I'm anxiously awaiting that Ana and Tyra will next to be written out...

And really, this "Colleen" is a totally new and stupid character. Can you imagine Fonseca and Leon playing this disaster? Tammin is miscast, my opinion of course, but Colleen was never a ho that liked to get hammered and she was never this pathetically dumb. The sad thing is, this is a CORE character, and she's being wasted away by poor writing and casting.

    • Not mad at Leslie Locking Eva out, I think it's important for the audience to see her on her own for a while. Curious how scrappy and savvy on her own. Yeah, I am with you there. It feels a bit hollow; maybe if she was talking to Martin and Kat I would feel better about it. There must be more to this story. Daphnee and Ambry owned this episode. Tugging my heart in every scene. Nicole process hurt and anger much differently than Dani though.
    • I also really enjoyed Eva's scenes with Kat today. They have an interesting chemistry. I thought it really did feel a bit like sisters at conflict. Especially with the way that Eva was trying to convince Kat to forgive Ted and them both coming to the conclusion that the man they thought was their father was different wasn't who they really thought he was initially. And the way that Eva broke down when Kat said that she was dead to her was emotional stuff. I really do think that in spite of their conflict/bickering Eva really would have loved to have gained a sister, along with a brother, father, etc... Also, I thought it was interesting how Eva kept saying that she loves Ted and Nicole. That and Leslie mentioning that Kat/Eva are almost twins really does make me wonder if Kat may really be her twin and Nicole's as well. I would gladly welcome that outcome, even if it takes a while for it to come out. At this point Leslie doesn't deserve Eva as a daughter as far as I'm concerned. And I would forward to a storyline where we found out that she's Nicole's second baby girl, and all the complex and ultimately happy feelings that would bring Nicole. Eva/Kat could still have a rivalry, especially if Nicole ended up doing some more bonding with Eva. And then we could get the rest of the family's reaction to that as well.

        What you NOT gonna do to me!
    • Bravo to every single person responsible for today's episode. From the writer on down to Kraft services. Yall I'm getting emotional but I wish my granny was here to have seen this soap since she was the one to introduce me to this medium.

    • Everything is fraught with confusion. Why is Leslie pleading with the Duprees to accept Eva? She's not biological family so what is this? She's the product of an affair with their in-law so Leslie wants them to accept her? I'm getting GOOD TIMES vibes of Leslie and Eva minus the physical abuse.
    • Big fan of today's writing. In particular, I like EJ complexity, crying over Johnny and conspiring at the same is tough to pull off in the same episode, but it goes very far in explaining EJ's motives. I don't hate the idea of Cat and EJ, and I especially appreciate everyone trying to warn her, but she is sticking to the plan. Boy oh boy, when Brandon Beemer wears a shirt that matches his eyes, I get lost in the screen!
    • Yeah, I think that Leslie's speech would have had a bit more of an impact if Ted had been the Dupree's son, with Nicole being the daughter in law they loved like a daughter. But being that he's the son in law, and that Eva (at least not right now) isn't technically a Dupree, it doesn't hold as much weight. They aren't caring much for Ted right now and their feelings could be trickling down to Eva. Though, I do think they have some sympathy for her. I really enjoyed today's show. Loved a stripped, down hurt but still strong in her resolve Nicole. DD continues to shine and shows why she is IMO the heart of the show. I felt her words, and anger at Ted and how she broke down in Kat's arms at the end. She is just wonderful all the way around. I also loved the way that Anita read Leslie. She was spot on about her and how mishandled everything with Ted and Eva. And speaking of Leslie... I immediately thought the same thing once I saw that scene. That what she exhibited was trash behavior. I don't think she's a good mother. In fact, I think she's lousy. Granted, I have missed some episodes, but I haven't really seen her do anything to indicate that she really cares for Eva or her well being. All she's really done is try and manipulate/use Eva for her own agenda since she came to town.   
    • I thought Brandon C was much more believable as Martin today.  Before, I watched an actor trying to portray a character.  Friday and today, I simply felt the character.
