Members Khan Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 I think it all began when they introduced Joyce Colman as Lisa's rival for Grant's affections. Because Lisa had been so bitchy in the past, the writers probably felt they had to neutralize her (and make her seem tame in comparison to Joyce, who, in many ways, was truly over-the-top) in order to sell the triangle. Of course, in retrospect, I think they underestimated the audience a tad. Lisa was a bitch, but she had her reasons to be; that's why America loved (to hate) her. They would've rooted for her to end up with Grant no matter what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 Thank God Obama didn't screw with ATWT's airing. I know there's this whole "rep" of Lisa being a bitch...and if I'd seen any of it, maybe I'd have a different opinion of EF. But even in the snippet of vintage Bob/Lisa I saw, I wasn't that impressed by her acting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jay Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 That may be true, but it was still box office poison taking them out of opposition with each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted May 28, 2010 Author Members Share Posted May 28, 2010 Aaaah!!!! Vulnerable Reid showed up today! It's about time we've gotten to know a little bit more about his background, but that wasn't enough. I want more! And that was the best kiss they've had. Just to see ESS play those scenes, the near cowering, the passiveness in his voice as he said "Do you want me as much as I want you?. He's just a fantastic actor.

Members Soapsuds Posted May 28, 2010 Members Share Posted May 28, 2010 Can't wait to see it! I am a week behind. Hopefully I can catch up this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted May 29, 2010 Members Share Posted May 29, 2010 I agree ESS is a good actor. But LuRe sucks...and I really don't care about Reid's "vulnerable side". I'd much rather see Reid in scenes with ANYONE other than Luke and Noah. And that includes Katie, who I borderline loathe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted May 29, 2010 Members Share Posted May 29, 2010 You made me watch. Damn you! Just amazing stuff. So much chemistry and sweetness. The heart on the sleeve, the babbling, Luke steadily moving towards Reid. This was their best kiss. Ack, I refused to get sucked in. ESS is the best thing to happen to ATWT in a long time. He is so good and shows up JS as the talentless hack that he is. Van Hansis is finally showing up in his scenes again with ESS pushing him to react.

Members Soapsuds Posted May 29, 2010 Members Share Posted May 29, 2010 You're sucked in already...lol Read the Van Hansis interview in the spoiler thread. Van mentions how he and JS dont even talk about the storyline away from work and how great ESS is...lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members P.J. Posted May 30, 2010 Members Share Posted May 30, 2010 ^^^doesn't mean I can't voice my opinions on other stories and whether or not I think they work. I will not become some Van Hansis sycophant simply because he stumbled into a quality actor to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Jay Posted May 30, 2010 Members Share Posted May 30, 2010 You can do all the voicing you like. Doesn't mean your opinions won't be taken with one enormous box of salt--kosher salt, even. "Sycophant" -- please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted May 30, 2010 Members Share Posted May 30, 2010 Yeah..I agree....PJ is a great poster...I'd hate the bickering to continue. We need to disagree politely...lol... PJ gets kidos for liking ESS. I understand her VH dislike...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
