EXACTLY what I thought of Erika's.

 

Now that I think about it...Kyle's too. 

 

Honestly, perhaps it's delivery but I felt meh on those.

 

That said. Easy faves: Garcelle, Sutton (congrats!), and Crystal's.

 

Dorit...I expect better.

 

Ex Soap Opera Star

 

Hmmm perhaps that's part of the BTS drama going on currently that would spill over if they are filming again.

I agree. I know LaToya brought drama, but I still found her thirsty and don’t think she fit in. I only enjoyed her at the reunion. She simply wasn’t strong enough for this franchise. When you look at what we’ve lost, you need to do better. Nene, Sheree, Phaedra, even Kim were all such huge and iconic personalities that had real impact and fit in. 
 

I agree. I remember when it originally was airing I was ready for Phaedra to leave even before the stuff with Kandi. She got to the point where she was tired and once Apollo was gone her story was over. ATL could’ve benefitted from a cast revamp around season 8-9 so they wouldn’t be so dependent on old HWs now. They’ve done a horrible job building a next generation.

That's how I feel - sums it up completely for me. 

 

Production on ATL is a problem and as everyone has said, ATL flopped with Covid, while shows like NJ and Summer House thrived. 

 

 

Garcelle's tagline is superior to all of them. Perfect.

 

Vyle is always harping on about her town...by which she must mean Encino because she lives deep in the Valley. 

 

Erika...No. You're not strong. You're complicit.

Speaking of production, some RHOD news: 

 

They have a new casting director and officially have decided to hire Toni Grant. She’s a black, married mother of two who also is a fashion designer. She’s friends with Kary and Kameron. 


I hope a new casting director means they’ll also have a new producer. I’m pulling for them to finally get it right.

@DaytimeFan your continued referencing of Vyle, the realtor's wife, living Deep in the Valley kills me every time!

I can't with her having melded her usual "My town" crap with "kween." Just because you refer to yourself as one doesn't make it so, Kyle.

 

Garcelle and Sutton's are the best. Rinna's is a regurgitation of every tagline she ever had. Dorit's is plain awful. And Erika's is truly shocking when you consider who the Girardis embezzled from.

With Crystal’s taglines she’s not saying she’s phony, she’s saying she calls out those who are. I’m assuming she’s referring to her feud with Sutton, unless she gets into it with someone else we don’t know about.

    • That was my point really. These anniversary party scenes are the first ones, and now they won't be able to use them (meaning these actual scenes, as aired, with OG Ted). They can recreate them but I doubt they will spring for all the extras to come back and film and recreate everything, so it will be more like tight closed in shots of Ted with one or two other actors, or snippets of Leslie's original speech where Ted wasn't visible. It would be hard to recapture the original energy of the scenes are as they were filmed in their full context. I just think that's too bad, but maybe they will prove me wrong. I never really saw what was so off in his portrayal to warrant a recast, anyway, so that colors my perception as well.
    • Yeah, and quite honestly, are there really that many scenes that are flashback-worthy at this point in the run?
    • I know at one point they were on Hulu & i-Tunes. I just checked it on JustWatch.com & it indicates 1 season on Prime Video & on AppleTV. Have fun!
    • That era is so weird...they made a big deal out of all three of those characters and then they just..disappeared! Not that I am complaining. We talk about the bad out of character writing for Alex under JFP..but this was one example that may have led them to write her being so obsessive with Nick.  WHY would Alex accept Flock of Seagulls guy as her brother? They had her in one scene (setting up the Alan return) complain that Alan abandoned her...she blackmailed him into leaving town and she had been angry at him for helping Brandon with Lujack and also using Spaulding for that dumb dreaming death thing. Endless scenes of her with Simon, I can't believe Bev wasn't bored to death! I would also add Pam writing the scene where she lets Ms. Sally die in front of her to protect Alan and  the writing for Alex could be screwy even before JFP.
    • On this day 34 years ago the final episode of Dallas and came in at an astonishing #2 in the ratings after two straight seasons of weak ratings. Interesting Knots was #27 for that week as well:

    • Thank you for clearing that up. I wasn't watching GL regularly yet at that point, but seems to me I should have remembered the big wedding after Leslie's death (which I do remember) described in the profile. Is there a web archive of SOD summaries, or are referring to your own personal collection?
    • I was bummed that 2.0 ended because Mcpherson (headwriter) had really set up some interesting stories and we never got to find out where the stories would go once they resumed production on 'season 2'. I remembered the EP (Ginger Smith) and a lot of the stars gave a lot of credit to McPherson being able to come in on very short notice and come up with stories/plots (I think it was a very short turnaround time of a few weeks).  It was nice that she got to redeem herself after her year long Days stint was not well reviewed/liked.

    • It seems like a setup for failure to review a single episode of a soap, but Cleveland Amory was a foolish man.  His taste was so predictable, that one wondered why bother reviewing a medium he so clearly disliked. (found on Facebook retro TV group) Another case in point of his misogyny from his review of Dark Shadows (Can you imagine the magazine with the widest circulation in the country insulting its customer in this way today?)

    • They could easily be re-created, or even re-shot in different ways, especially if they were re-shooting scenes at some point, as well.
