There was a little white woman tied up in a living room amongst black people. This show is a trainwreck.

What's even more amusing is how Vasi and her tweeps on Twitter are all acting like she brought down the house with this episode. Comments like "the Feisty Randi is back" kinda crap!

Um... back? Don't you have to be something once and then be it again in order to be "back?" It doesn't count if you've been it at all!

Oh God yes, someone posted a couple of her tweets before, like she'd Kim Stanley'd the studio that day. That is really bold, setting yourself up like that, who is lying to you sweetie...

I was hoping JR would get entangled in the Chandler family drama with the new Step Mommy. I hope it's not in the Martinized version...which sounds likely now. Junior was a piece of work today--renouncing his family and throwing in his cousin's face Scott's lack of Chandler blood. JR is such a big, big, baby still.

I despise this character. After all the times he has run to his "real father", Tad, who has treated him like crap for a good portion of his adult life, he's now playing the biology card on Scott.

This whole thing about not being a blood relative = being worthless is something that is all over the soaps now and it always disgusts me.

She had a part on "White Collar" that required her to look like a model while walking across the roof of a NYC apartment.No acting required. She was perfect. The girl is as pretty as a picture and if she isn't a model she should be, but her acting isn't even good enough for soaps in 2009.

This is what I see when I see Zach, Erica and Ryan together

Love it!

Well, what qualifies as a "vet" (which is why I never use the word, because it's a word whose definition changes with convenience)? The episode was full of soap vets: David Canary, Susan Lucci, Darnell Williams, Thorsten Kaye... even (shudder) Cameron Mathison and Jacob Young are eleven and twelve years respectively into Daytime.

This episode was boring. Very little, if any, movement at all.

Gidget and the Dum Dum Twins are, of course performing Bring in Da Noise, Bring in Da Funk on my last nerve.

Eunice Mabe McGrimace and JR... zzzzzzzz!

Denise Vasi... ugh! After a year of her non-acting, and seeing yesterday's performance, I've come to the conclusion that soft porn is ultimately the best career move for her after Frankie dumps Randi for Madison.

Zendall... dumb asses! What's the point of referring to each other as "Z" and "K" in an attempt to remain hidden on a message board... if you're just going to write, "So! How are things back in Pine Valley?! Did Annie confess to killing Stuart so I can stop being on the run with Aidan and come home to you and the boys?!" This goes to show that Pine Valley's law enforcement is as dumb as a box of hair if they can't figure out that brilliantly coded message. Dumb, dumb, DUMB asses! Natalia should be running this force solo. Her corrupt father and the mushbrained officers under him couldn't find a maple tree in Vermont.

Yeah, it was full of vets but still was a boring episode.

DV would be perfect for porn and as a gay man, I'd never have to see her again!

Today was kind of boring for me, too overall.

I found myself moved a couple of times by DC's layered reaction as the guilt about Stuart presses him. Today it was external forces, JR and The Three Stooges helping that guilt along.

Denise Vasi returns to not act some more.

Glad Madison's back. Frankie's got it bad because he believes her and his good guy self won't be able to hold back from helping. No tears for Randi from me.

I agree R, the stuff about Zach and Kendall using all but no attempt to disguise their identities on the message board when it's been mentioned many times that Zach was under surveillance.

I am not sure what's in plan for Beigissa and Junior but those two characters could fall away from the current landscape and few would notice, imo. I'm someone who thinks the JR ought to be around as a legacy character, too. The writers have isolated them during the cancer storyline and it sounds now like JR wants to officially de-Chandlerize himself (for the forty-seventh time, but there we are). Perhaps we'll see more interaction now that JY and BA are going to LA.

Zach & Kendall are so stupid that nothing surprises me anymore.

I feel the same way about JR. His comment to Scott about not being a real Chandler was dumb since he repeatedly tells Tad how much he considers him his father. As a legacy character, there is so much potential, but not when he's being written as a whining baby. I don't understand why the cancer story is so isolated from the rest of the canvas. I was expecting him to be involved in the inevitable Adam/Annie/Scott triangle, too. I suspect when someone figures out the truth about his illness (i.e., Annie), he'll be blackmailed into rejoining the family.

That's just it. She is a model. She's the stereotypical "model-slash-actress" you run into in NYC... and the kind Judy Blye Wilson loves to cast on this show. I bet... I bet there were at least three other actresses that were MUCH stronger than she was and sold the character much better than she did... but didn't have "the look." I guess "the look" in JBW and JHC's case is a girl who was raised in child services who grew up to be a gritty, tough, streetwalking hooker who continuously was beaten by her pimp -- with the looks of a porcelain doll. Casting Vasi in this role made the character incredibly unbelievable from day one. Not only because of her looks, but because of her bad acting.

The role and this particular model auditioning for it reeks of a cheesy scene in a TV show, where the resident model is going around for days before the audition telling her friends that "this is what I've been waiting for! A really gritty role I can sink my teeth into! People will take me seriously!" Because you know all gorgeous models-slash-actresses want to play roles like hookers and drug addicts to prove how serious they are as actors. Or as it's been in this woman's case: memorizing lines and reciting them in a monotone fashion in full makeup and hair.

How can the same woman who cast wooden Denise Vasi cast the talented Shannon Kane?

Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Good news everyone: Denise Vasi tweeted that she has found herself an LA apartment!

Oh, good! Whew! I was worried there for a second!
