Discuss bitches!

[alwaysAMC]

Love bitchy Madison!

Randi needs to die and just go away.

Love that Zendall/Ryan were NOT on today. Yay!!!

[tina m]

Who stole Amanda's baby?? I can not believe Tad and Taylor just left the baby there and failed to keep an eye on him. Ugh.

[alexisfan07]

. Yeah, Randi pissed me off today. She's gonna feel pretty salty in a little while.

[CassieFan]

Randi needs to die by a slow, painful, overacting death.

[LeClerc]

IMO there are a handful of actors that TPTB really should not be giving the opportunity to move to LA, but rather they should be looking at getting rid of in the next couple of months. Denise Vasi in particular. I gather that once someone makes the move they will be safe for quite some time. Is Brittany Allen really working out well enough for them to make that kind of commitment to her?

Or maybe I'm wrong and TPTB would fire someone a couple of months after the move without a second thought.

[Vee]

Is this whole Jesse-protects-Randi/Frankie gets the wrong idea thing Pratt's "subtle" way of doing the Jesse/Randi storyline that supposedly got killed?

Marissa looks and acts like an "American Girl" doll. I can see absolutely no redeeming value. Mia and Becca Tyree had more selling points as a character. Maybe Tina Harding did, too. Who is she [!@#$%^&*] BTS? Unless this character is revealed to be a Mary Jane Benson/Patrick Bateman-style cannibal serial killer, there's no reason to keep her.

[ChitHappens]

Denise Vasi was a special kind of aweful today! My heart went out to DM because she had to guide the poor thing with body language and eye movement. At any moment, I fully expected Vasi to ask, "is it my turn" or deliver her next line "don't ask any questions about me, stay out of Frankie's ear...storm off towards exit".

God, she was aweful! Great to see no Zendull, but unfortunately, with the exception of Angie and Frankie, there were no rootable characters on today. Tad is a mess! Jake and Amanda have no appeal, and David is a loathesome creature who needs to get back with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Slug, and get off my screen!

[Steve]

I'm relieved to finally have a Zzzendull-free day!

I love Jake/Amanda and like Tad/Taylor. It's nice when they're featured on the same day.

I loved having so much of Opal in this episode, although I didn't buy Joe coercing her into a physical when she insisted she had to leave. It just felt off to me.

I agree about Denise Vasi. She really needs to stay in New York and take some acting lessons when the show moves.

Stephanie Gatschet was terrific when Madison was laying into Jesse and hitting on Frankie; it's too bad TIIC didn't realize her potential and wasted her in the role of a woman who killed her husband and framed the police chief's daughter-in-law.

[R Sinclair]

Shoudn't Joe be retired by now? They could've come up with a better way to stall Opal. Also, why didn't Opal just text Tad back with a "Don't drop off baby. I'm running late!" message? Ah, well, that's what this baby switching Flubsome Foursome deserve.

So many annoyances in this episode for me. Jesse, Randi, Tad, Taylor, Jake, Amanda, Madison... ugh!

[Ann_SS]

Is the the actress who plays Natalia on contract? I hope she is because she is the only talented younger AA actress and is the one that AMC needs to feature. If she sticks around long enough, Pratt may finally wake up. Look how long it took for ABC to focus on Christell Stause and OLTL to give Layla the time of day.

[reallyhateskateonlost]

All My Morons Opal, Tad, Jake, Amanda, Taylor are despicable and need to be behind bars, with David taunting and torturing them in every possible way he knows how!! HATE!!!!!

Jessie and Madison hate sex...Messie...lol

[Southofnowhere]

David didn't go to jail when he did the samething only worse not once but twice so i don't see the others even getting into trouble.

[alwaysAMC]

Wait - why haven't we discussed Angie's new weave??? haha - I actually think it works for her. Very different.

And yes, I also thought the Opal/Joe scene was random and contrived...although it was nice to see two vets work together like that.

[rsmith2k2]

Yay, no Zendall. Boo for Dead Baby Liars (great, in fact BRILLIANT plan, folks..really ) and Tapioca Mabe.

This has crossed my mind from time-to-time as we go along.

I liked Angie's new 'do, too always. Makes her look so young and she already looks fab.

Loved how Debbi Morgan played Angie listening to Randi's BS as Dr. Hubbard is doing her background research for when she lets Jesse have it (though I doubt my happiness over Jesse being discovered will last).

Loved how gentle Jill Larson played Opal's chat with Randi. Lovely little bit of work, enjoyed her. Agree the Joe scene seemed out of nowhere.

Aaaaah, Vasi. What's left to say?

I think Stephanie Gatschet is interesting but is over-reaching in her portrayal. I've enjoyed Madison's bitchiness but she needs to dial it back a bit, imo. If I thought Madison was going to be around for awhile (just my spec), I'd wish she wasn't such a cartoon. But then few characters aren't cartoons these days.

OTH, I wish she would smack the fire out of Jesse the next time he grabs her arm and jerks her around. Gah!
