Absotively posolutely. And the fact that his hair looks frizz-fried from flat ironing only adds to the comedy. Looks like a still from SNL's "Magruber".

LOL. He has charisma already, so I don't understand why he overdoes it, Zimmer-style. In that screen cap, it's like "You've already got a gun. You are shooting at people. You don't NEED to out-act the gun. It is doing all the acting for you."

The constant overacting from Tom Pelphrey was one of the reasons I gave up on GL for several years. I never saw a character, I just saw the mugging and tics. I'm sure he is a good actor but I thought GL did not use him at his best abilities.

LMAO, out-acting a gun, that is such a Kim Zimmer thing to do, he learned from the best. I was reading an interview TP did and he was saying how he realized that he'll never be one of the actors he looks up to/emulates and might as well be himself, and I thought, "Yes, YES, I am so glad to hear him say that." I always thought he was good but I thought his performances were tricky and classic hotshot kid from acting school, trying to be Brando, Nicholson, Penn, Malkovich all rolled into one.

Is Grady still rotting undiscovered at the bottom of that ravine?

Why do I get the idea that this Buzz/Cyrus thing is all about discovering that Cyrus is some long-lost son of Jenna's?

DAVID ANDREW MACDONALD [ Edmund] was listed in the cast today at the end of GL - however they put him after Grant Aleksander [Phillip] - so I am guessing they think David last name is Andrew, but I am glad to see DAM listed in the cast - just wish we could see him there longer and watch GL longer.

GL HOTLINE: 866 - 695 - 1859

Saw this on Daytime Confidential:

That Jonathan pic at the bottom seemed to sum up so much about GL in its current incarnation... I've liked TP in the past but boy, is he a total ham.

When TP first came on the show Jonathon was sex on a stick....and I am not into younger guys or the bad boys or the grungy types, but he just gave off the energy that he would f*ck anyone at anytime. Then, maybe his exposure to Zimmer and her idea that "bigger is better," he just became this monkey boy bouncing around, screaming and yelling and of all things, whineing about his childhood. The funny thing is, the louder a soap actor is, (Zimmer,Deas and TP) the more the people on the boards go and on about what great "actors," they are!

Love the pictures, sums up Wheeler's GL to a T and should be given as an example of why GL is dead!!!

IA 100%. Not into younger guys here at all either, but TP when he first came on the show was an exception. He oozed sex. Nasty sex.

Caught today's show - well half of it anyway.

It really bothers me that they haven't done away with those random meetings that take place in the middle of (seemingly) nowhere. And that crappy music! It takes away every dramatic tone of the scene. Last complaint - the scenes between the characters are too freakin' short. Phillip/Lizzie lasted what? 5-8 minutes? Mallet/Marina (not that I care about them) 5-8 minutes? And they were discussions that I really wanted to see happen!

Phillip mentioned casually about "all the bad things he's done". And Lizzie was like "Yeah". WTF?!?!? I want to see Lizzie confront him about them. Ask him WHY he did those things. Not just "Yeah". I don't really care about Mallet/Marina/Henry, but that discussion was way too short as well. Not that I would have paid attention to it, but too short nevertheless.

I have to say this again. Jeff Branson is a find. He's perfect as Shayne. I think that Y&R should lure him away as a recast Phillip "Chance" Chancellor and kick JD to the curb. I like John D, but Jeff would be much better. And the man is S.E.X.Y

They probably don't want a strong male lead in that role. Chance exists to be the boring guy who can never compare to Billy, the show's big hero.

I'm still way behind in watching the entire episodes, I've seen a few moments here and there but not entire episodes since early August.

I wish they'd done more with Dorothy Lyman.

I was surprised by how much I liked Dinah's exit (even though I hate that she had to be turned into the pariah again, it does fit her character -- as she said, "I ruin everything"), and how much I liked that so much of it was about her relationship with Mallet. I have never believed that Mallet loves the little garden gnome Marina, and his decision to all but try and convict Marina himself, while helping Dinah flee the country, was final proof. Her goodbye to Vanessa was touching, but I really was moved by that last scene of her in the helicopter as she said goodbye to Mallet and Springfield.

my thoughts exactly. Which just goes to sum up the storytelling of GL.

I was trying soo hard to care about Mallet...nope.

Ohh please no Jeff Branson on Y&R. He does nothing for me.

I'm glad to see the labelless love story of Olivia and Natalia has moved into Natalia making reference to her "friend". WTF? That's the best they could do after months and months of buildup?

I think Branson is really sexy...he seems so different then the usual soap "hunk," (aka Cyrus) who either look like strippers or male models. He seems effortlessly masculine, and that voice!! However, I find Shayne completely unsexy and a whiner. They want me to believe Josh and Reva's kid is a mope who, when faced with a problem, immediatley goes to the nearest roof top to jump? Talk about a drama queen!

Holly/Olivia is interesting as Holly was the first choice to have this thing with Olivia. And how much more interesting would that have been then having Olivia with the wet rag known as Nat. One more bad choice on Wheeler's huge rap list. She could have brought MG back for this and it would have been HOT!!!

I am so sad to see GL go this way. Are these supposed to be the final weeks of a 72-year old show?

Is this show supposed to end with stories about Jeffrey and Edmund?

Horrible production. No story. Am I supposed to tune in just to SEE Nola?

YES, Mitch. I agree completely - and the voice is "Effortlessly masculine" is a great way to put it. Interesting take on Shayne - I haven't really noticed that before but can see your point. However, I had no idea that Holly was the first choice in the story with Olivia! Very interesting, indeed! I guess EW couldn't get MG back, so they went with Natalia?

Jill Lorie HACK at her finest. I was thinking the same thing to myself yesterday, particularly about Reva having hung up all those pictures of Jeffery - all over Cross Creek no less. WTF? And they actually had Reva say about her and Josh: "That's ancient history". WTF?

I was hoping that both of them (Jeffrey and Edmund) were actually dead and laying down there with G/Grady/Gillespie at the bottom of the cliff.

I would think at this point, there would be some momentum building to the end game. We should be seeing more of Holly and Ed's story in particular. And we should be in the middle of a Josh/Reva/Jeffrey triangle. Colin should turn out to be Josh's son. I don't like the thought of "Reva Shayne" being forever tied to rapist Jeffrey with a baby. Ugh. I would like to see something start to develop for Blake and Alex as well.

Don't get me wrong. I don't need everything tied up with a pretty little bow, but I'd like to see some story momentum now that we're in the 30 day stretch.

Edited August 26, 200916 yr by Greg's GL

We don't want to see someone dress up looking like a clam for $20. - we want to see Josh in towel and Edmund in shades and we want to watch love!!

I thought the Olivia/Holly story was planned back when MG was still with the show. Does anyone know?

I wish they had used Edmund in a better fashion. He had chemistry with everyone. He even had great chemistry with Bradley Cole when Cole played Richard.
