[Clear Drama]

I think it's already etched in stone that JR is going to be evil. Krystal keeps saying it, Colby is scared, even David took it as an offense to be compared to JR. JR will likely be Annie's dark knight w/ the black horse. B/c he again knows she has faults but he likes that, they aren't dependent on what the other does. JR needed Marissa to feel like a good person and be there for AJ, Annie needs Scott to feel like a good person and be there for Emma, JR told Annie, there is nothing wrong w/ us, the first person that has ever acknowledged that to her. JR was right not to tell her what she wanted to hear, he told her how he understands she needs a proclaimation or declaration, he truely knows her, and loves her for it, he even put her feelings first, he told her he has a divorce coming, lets take it slow and see where it goes, she instead chose a shiney rock b/c she's that scared of being lonely. She settled for Scott while still being hot and bothered about JR, how does this work? then you have Scott who is fresh off BOFFING Marissa and he has already admitted to Marissa that he wishes he could go back before all this. JR right now is the only sane Chandler, not even Colby makes sense. Caleb was right this family is crumbling to pieces.

I don't want JR to be evil, but I do want him to stay JR. I think that will only help keep JR/Annie in the running for super couple status (if such a thing exists in the year 2010) anyway. The worst thing they could do is turn JR all soft and fluffy. It'll be much better if JR/Annie play off each other in ways that aren't always sweet and healthy. MCE was wasted when Annie was all sweetness and light. She's too talented to play that sort of boring character. If JR/Annie are always sweet to each other and have to rely on external forces for angst, then they'll just be Jake and Amanda 2.0 and I'll have to jump ship.

See here's the thing, I think they are going to be the first in a long time rootable evil couple. JR and Annie are already power driven, they are selfish, they feel self entitled, her choice to marry Scott was b/c she didn't want to be one of those ppl that judge what he did after the stuff she did. Remember Scott knows JR and her were at a beach cottage, but he doesn't know about the stolen living room kisses, her going up to his room nonstop and almost screwing him on Emma's b-day, him showing up at her hotel room and standing in for Scott, her and JR in the park using it like an invisible mattress. So yeh she gave Scott a chance. But Scott is just going to pull away from her and hurt her unintentionally, this time it won't be her fault b/c he will slowly continue to be drawn to the Flannelicious one, which is the one he's wanted since she came to town.

I did LOL at Annie's, what do you have to offer? to JR, I was like, what you want him to strip right there? this isn't 'Lets Make A Deal' he wants to see what her and him have, then she went to the best deal available, like if this was some sale. So if JR were to get on his knees and popped out a ring, we know she would have said, Scott who?! and will you take care of Emma? fine sold.

I still can't believe Flannelicious went to stop the wedding, she's already drawn to Scott, and add the fact she told JR it wasn't to one up him, and she wanted Scott at that moment, which Scott did too, this is gonna be hilarious yet painful to watch unfold. Oh please add Greenlee boffing JR in this SL, please.

Those two were pinging like a pinball machine. Colby has officially become irrelevant.

[Clear Drama]

Colby's character sucks so much, basically b/c she boo hoos at JR, Annie, Adam, she sucks up, has no spine, bitch you're a Chandler ACT LIKE ONE!

[JackPeyton]

Colby is a lot like Mac on Y&R.

Missy Claire looks fab.

I tried to tune in, i did. Then i seen that big old mop of hair on kendell and had to tune off.

[R Sinclair]

I would laugh but it's true. I think, subconsciously, that's one of the reasons I don't want to watch her. She looks unappealing to me.

[Pine Charles]

Same here.

I've always preferred Annie with Scott. I'm not saying the Annie/JR sex wasn't hot, but I wouldn't want Annie with JR long-term.

Bitch needs to change her style.

How many women keep the EXACT same look for nearly 10 years???

I'm surprised Erica hasn't spoken to her about this.

@ that pose J.R. struck as he gazed at Scott and Annie from afar (yet within plain ass site where they would of course notice him).

Damon seems so small and dorkward around Asher, like any number of diminutive Hanna-Barbera sidekicks. His body language is all gawky and a simple adjustment like pulling that damn flannel up over his shoulders would be such a help. Asher needs speech lessons, he has a lazy tongue and the pin-pen problem, and oh my God if he said "Dewd" one more time... And then there's Colby, R. and I have discussed this before, this 35-year-old woman pretending to be an angsty teen. I feel like she'd much rather be in her den drinking coffee reading up on fertility treatments and hiking trips in Sedona.

[All My Shadows]

JR and Annie could never work as a couple. Well, maybe they could try to make it work, then it'll fail, and we can be entertained by the ensuing divorce settlement. But nah, as people, they would never work as a couple. Sexual interludes, yes, but as an MFSB unit under one roof, big happy family? No indeed. If they were to become a couple, the kids would have to be out of the picture because JR and Annie are so obsessed with lust at this point the kids would have no room.

That said, I wanted to punch the sh!t out of JR multiple times. No, Scott isn't the flawless man Annie thought he was. But JR running around acting as if he's got a handle on integrity by default is just laughable. Sitchass, Junior! Scott made it with Marissa in one moment of passion when they, very rightly, thought something was going on between Annie and JR. JR was acting like the two of them were carrying on an affair for months.

Oh and look, there's Marissa going cry to that woman she supposedly harbors resentment towards. "Po' babeh..."

I was surprised at how much I enjoyed Kendall. I was right intrigued by her talk of not feeling completely satisfied with life on the high seas. It made sense.

I agree with all of this, of course. Succotash Petrock has a weird stance in his scenes, like he thinks he has a big beer belly or something (I swear, anyone who makes gut jokes off of this will be ELIMINATED), so he just stands there with his stomach poked out. I don't know, it's weird. I like him, but he's a peculiar one.

I think I'll need a little time for TG to grow on me. He looks better in pictures than he does onscreen for some reason, and his line delivery is really off, but he's a beginner, so I'll cut him some slack. Being a south Louisianian, I never even noticed he has the "pin-pen" problem (because here you can have a frin named Bin who knew whin he was tin that he's attracted to min and likes to write with pins), but "dewd" bugged me.

The chem is totally there, though, and any scene between just the two of them looks like gay porn. DO SOMETHING WITH IT, AMC, JEEZ!!! I hate the fact that "Nah, they'll never got there hahaha" is the natural response.

[DeeeDee]

LOLOL

[SFK]

*DEAD* @"Succotash" and YES! totally at the beer belly stance, nailed it.

And your pin-pen example sentence belongs in Edith Skinner's Speak with Distinction.
