Members DRW50 Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 I don't care about Adriana. I'm just tired of seeing these awful performances and unpleasant characters 4-5 days a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members catsmeouch Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 Rex and Gigi are fun! They sure beat Natalie and anyone, or Brody and Jessica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Scotty Posted February 23, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 If they cut that part, it was early on. Nothing about it ever showed up in the previews we receives from the network. But I agree, it appears that they do feel that Rachel is more or less a throwaway character anymore.

Members catsmeouch Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 They are! I find it funny that Farah's main love interests on both Days and OLTL have the name "Rex". Plus, "Gigi" kind of rhymes with "Mimi". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Leia Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 I think FF had some moments that worked and some that didn't. But I think she's trying really hard. Clint washed Kim's feet like the people used to do in the old days of the bible belt. Todd's offer to Blair was gross but I'm surprised she walked away. Daniella seemed like Blair's daughter not Tea's today. Schuyler needs you Rachel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Doyen Posted February 24, 2010 Members Share Posted February 24, 2010 Well she's had better days...she's not always this off... For crying out loud. No. In a scene that was supposed to be confrontational, emotionally charged and riveting, Farah Fath stunk. She shrieked her way through her lines, had spastic movement, and was practically begging Scott Clifton to throw her a life jacket. All of her especially dramatic material, since coming onto the show, have been bad. She only barely works in the most lighthearted, casual/banal scenes. When it comes to drama, she's completely overwhelmed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted February 24, 2010 Members Share Posted February 24, 2010 tell me about. Someone needs to talk that girl down before becomes a grandfather again. I thought those scenes came way too soon at first but it made sense when she explained to Matthew that she wanted to have sex first with someone she cared about rather than letting someone force it out of her like Todd did. Today was about her taking control and power over a major decision in her life. Its sad bc if she thinks sex is the way to go about that, she needs to see a shrink and preferably not Marty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Leia Posted February 24, 2010 Members Share Posted February 24, 2010 I hope they don't make her into a young slut. Did it bother anyone else that Todd was trying to have sex with Blair while his daughter was trying to have sex too? About FF, I blame TSJ. Because of him I think I will give any actor who tries to make the effort to emote a pass. FF could have taken a page out of TSJ's book and acted like Schuyler was Rebecca.

Members Vee Posted February 24, 2010 Members Share Posted February 24, 2010 I thought Scott Clifton did his best work on daytime today - that was really incredible and a testament to his potential and the potential of the character. As conflicted as I am about how Sky got the big ol' bus treads for Rex and Gigi, I can see why SC loves the role and the show, and prefers this 'Sky goes gray' stuff to what he was doing before. There's a lot of room for this character to grow, he's very complex and sort of pitiful in a way some of the old OLTL antiheroes were, so it's a horrible waste that DD is out when clearly Sky is poised to rebuild with Rachel by his side. It makes me wonder if Frons saw this stuff, stepped in and said 'hmm - why are we wasting Scott on the black girl?' It's happened before on ABCD with similar characters, usually minorities. Many times. Next up: Lucky Spencer and Maya Ward. And I've said it before, but what a waste of Kim and Clint too. Whenever Jerry Ver Dorn says "Kimberly," I melt. That is too good to lose. Both these women who are exiting are some of the best new things on the show. Incidentally, regarding the cut scenes, Daytime Confidential gave me the impression last year that ABC made most of those last-minute cuts, not OLTL - they said that many things that were taped or spoilered got cut at the last minute for more of the stories and/or characters the network preferred. This happened with Viki and Charlie, and Jared and Natalie, among other people at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NorrthCafe Posted February 24, 2010 Members Share Posted February 24, 2010 They're wonderful. From the moment the writers had Kim realize that Clint was no one's fool, I'd hoped the writers would make them a long term couple. He caught her in the lie about Jared, the attempt to get him drunk and in bed, the failed seduction attempts. Brilliant! I think Kim is wonderful - the improved version of a young Blair.

Members catsmeouch Posted February 24, 2010 Members Share Posted February 24, 2010 But the scene WAS emotionally charged and riveting. Are you saying GiGi's reaction was wrong? Because it seemed pretty accurate to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted February 24, 2010 Members Share Posted February 24, 2010 Maybe they'll show up on the fairly pointless "More Life to Live" on abc.com? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Scotty Posted February 24, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 24, 2010 I don't know if I would call the MLTL deleted scenes pointless. It's interesting to see some of what gets cut out of the show's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
