Members Soapsuds Posted October 24, 2009 Members Share Posted October 24, 2009 Her acting was good because maybe she was actually mourning Peck's exist from the show....hmmmm....just a thought...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted October 24, 2009 Members Share Posted October 24, 2009 Branco acts as if ATWT was getting rid of an emmy award winner, and just shipping him out of town with no explanation. Peck may be a good inteview and a good lay, but his acting comes and goes. And I'd really dispute the whole "Bratie's so popular" argument. Yeah, they had their fans, but TIIC have been struggling to write something for them for more than a year. Doesn't take a Mensa candidate to figure out Peck was on the bubble with a tight budget. I'm kind of stunned that TC managed to pull it up a notch and make me feel a little for Katie. If asked---I'll deny ever posting that, btw.

Members Actor87 Posted October 24, 2009 Author Members Share Posted October 24, 2009 Do I need to call a doctor?????????? *pfffftttt!!!!* Oooh dear, made drink go up my nose. I don't know what I like better...the context of the joke, or the alliteration of it all. ITA, Ron. The Friday cliffhangers have been Niiiiiice!!! Who wants to make a bet that next week will be potentially Emmy-worthy material for both Terri Colombino and Michael Park?? P.S. -- Ron, I don't know if Peck's exit and Colombino's emotional acting breakthrough have a connection, but there are whispers circulating that Terri and her hubby have parted ways.... *zips lips, throws away the key, and hurriedly walks off* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jfung79 Posted October 24, 2009 Members Share Posted October 24, 2009 They didn't "drop" the Adam story, they wrote him an exit. Casey caused it. Just because it wasn't announced all over the magazines doesn't mean it wasn't resolved on screen that Adam left town. As for Margo, she has been on 3 days this week, interacting with her brother as well as doing police work. Margo's story does not depend on Adam. It is Tom, moreso, who we are no longer seeing. Adam can come back later, or not -- it's open-ended, which is good because I do hope he comes back -- but for now, Casey made him leave. And it is a believable thing for Casey to have done. I agree Maddie could have been used more in the story with Audrey and Henry. Characters really "dropped" in the last few months, under Passanante's watch, are Jade, Matt, and Derek. I miss Jade's interaction with Luke badly. Matt had a lot of chemistry with Allison. Jade had a lot of chemistry with Casey too. The post from someone here bashing David Kreizman for a TWOP rumor ... Why?... First of all that supposed story hasn't started yet and I don't necessarily believe the rumor. Second Kreizman is quite possibly responsible for a lot of the show's other changes that posters seem to be liking, so I totally disagree that Kreizman is "the last thing this show needed." Third, I don't see why the rumored story has to be bad - it depends on how it would play out. Fourth, the created character is not essentially the same as a dropped one at all (even if one were to believe the rumored story which I don't anyway). Friday's show was good. I'm glad Luke was not that gung-ho about Lucinda's plan, although he did go along with it. As I mentioned last week, I thought Luke would want his mother to be able to make up her own mind, not be forced back to Holden, and that's pretty much what Luke was voicing Friday. The cliffhanger was well-written, but the directing for it was bleh. They should have shown Brad's wound more clearly and had more dramatic music. People might well have missed the wound if they didn't already know spoilers. Liberty is not isolated in her age range -- there are Tony who knocked her up and her friend Mackenzie (btw, Asian, yay -- represent!!) as recurring characters that we know of.

Members P.J. Posted October 24, 2009 Members Share Posted October 24, 2009 Pissy has a habit of dropping stories, or wrapping them up fast if they're not working. As nice as Tom Degan (?) was, I don't think he had much of a presence in the role, and it seemed more like the latest "let's throw a 20-ish male character at Alison" story. Look at the Hunter debacle...that's been completely dropped. I think it's time TIIC called it a day, and shipped Ali out of town. I like MS, but she's got the chemistry of a bottle of vinegar with every male she's been hooked up with. I mean honestly---canning Dylan Bruno (Chris) instead of her?? FCOL! And I say that dreading a DK influenced recasting of Bonnie Dennison in the role. I think Lib's pretty isolated. Other than Parker, and occassionally Faith (who seems to have disappeared again) there's no other teens, period. Dayplayers don't count. I was really looking forward to her moving on and only being friends/stepcousins with Parker. Now it's drifting back into "Parker has an unrequited thing for Libby" territory range.

Members jfung79 Posted October 24, 2009 Members Share Posted October 24, 2009 Interesting, I have a totally different take ... I actually like MS as Alison. She has shown her range to me, going from the sleazy, vampy porn star drug addict when she first started to the super innocent damsel in distress and nurturer now. Also I think the Adam story was more than just throwing a 20-something at her, because it brought in the Hughes/Stewart rivalry as well as sibling rivalry between Casey and Adam. Oh don't tempt me with ideas that DK could influence casting. If DK were to influence casting, I would want EJ Bonilla on ATWT! He can be the teen contemporary of Parker and Liberty y'all want so much. As for Parker and Liberty, I still think Parker is just being a very good, supportive friend, no unrequited crush. It's so admirable and adorable. Parker is such a good boy in between his acting-out moments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted October 24, 2009 Members Share Posted October 24, 2009 NO, GOD, PLEASE...anything but that! As bad as I think Dennison was, Bonilla was 1000x worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted October 25, 2009 Members Share Posted October 25, 2009 It's a shame Adam is gone over TP. Again we disagree about Fridays show...lol...what a surprise...lol The direction was great. We didnt need to see Brad's wound to know Jack had shot him instead. The music was perfect. The dramatic music was during the actual shooting. The music for Jack finding Brad had to be more sober and not dramatic. Btw PJ...it's Dylan Bruce.and not Dylan Bruno....lol..... Here's my baby darling lindo Bruce...on the top of my post..lol..he is so hot! Oh and HELL NO TO BONILLA ON ATWT!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Actor87 Posted October 25, 2009 Author Members Share Posted October 25, 2009 I would rather wash my eyes with bleach than have to sit through EJ Bonilla on ATWT. That would be awful. I can definitely see Mick being a character-recast of Adam...especially if Kreizman wanted Adam to be bad again. Since Pissy knows how to ruin a good story, I'm sure she suggested reverting Adam back to a psycho, but Kreizman suggested bringing on a different version of Adam...someone who could act like they want, without Adam's hawty-tawty Hughes/Munson "morally obedient" background. End result: Mick. I liked Tom Degan in the role of Adam. Too bad they had him leave town. Jfung's assertion that MS has successfully portrayed Alison being a meth addict porn star...all the way to a nurturing nurse with a guilty reputation. That started me thinking....how many times, since Pissy took over, has a return character transformed? It seems like every returning character that she writes goes from one extreme to the other. Adam was a psycho, turned identity stealer, turned good guy. Alison was a meth addicted porn star, turned man-eater, turned whiney bitch, turned nurturing nurse. Not to mention the characters that were promised exciting return storylines, only to be shelved a week after their initial storyline came to a close. i..e. Bonnie, Jade, Adam, Aaron, etc. I mean.......it's almost like she doesn't know how to write a soap!!.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 25, 2009 Members Share Posted October 25, 2009 Either that or there were no female cousins around for Adam to bang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members nhee Posted October 26, 2009 Members Share Posted October 26, 2009 I was very disappointed in the ending of Friday's show. Not really a cliff hanger when you show the result. They should have had the struggle and gun shots be the end of the show. Not show who was shot. I was underwelmed with Jack's reaction to seeing Brad. Hopefully it will be better next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted October 26, 2009 Members Share Posted October 26, 2009 I disagree. In the 1984 Dallas cliffhanger someone shot at JR's chair but the ending showed Bobby falling from the chair. They showed the result and I found that as a cliffhanger. We didnt know if Bobby would survive. They could have left it with gun shots but I was happy with the cliffhanger. As for Jack...what was he suppose to do?? Scream and yell like hystrical loon....lol....He just might do that on Monday's show. But I loved his reaction to finding out it was Brad who he had shot. I can't wait for tomorrow and this whole week!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
