IF this show ever gets cancelled I think she's got so much potential. Imagine her on a show like Melrose Place 2.0 or any show dealing with people in their 20s/30s and the drama surrounding their lives and interactions. She just has the look and projects such confidence and strength. Yet in the same scene you can see the vulnerability beneath the surface. I can't help but be drawn to her in every scene she appears in.

Even when shes with Josh Henderson its like she's the one who's making the relationship sizzle.

The promo for next week made my stomach sink, so damn sad. How many episodes left this season?

That hostage scene... on a daytime soap, that would have gone on for a week. I'm surprised that that guy got offed so quickly. And I thought it was going to be J.R. who shot him.

Harris and Judith must be pretty damn good because I think most daughters would be curious to know their mothers and go through a rebellious stage where they blamed the dad for her absence, et cetera.

The reason why the Bobby and Pam characters worked is because they were not badasses. This is the problem with modern soaps where everyone needs edge. No one who writes these things ever realize if everyone is a badass then no one is a badass. Bobby has to remain pure as the driven snow so characters like JR and now John Ross have someone to contrast with. I like Bobby (what's not to like?) and I hope he remains virtuous to a fault. I really hope they don't mess around with Gary's personality too much and start giving him shades of gray. Most of the original Ewings were decent people, and it was only JR, Sue Ellen, and Jock (and sort of Lucy) who had ethical problems. Ellie, Bobbie, Pam, Ray, Donna, Gary and Valene were all candidates for sainthood, Clayton too.

    • 6-6   Hmmmm. Not my favorite of the week. However, it showed the strength of Jazmen's script writing against RC's breakdown. And he's good enough to rise above almost all of RC's tics. Though I guess the real question would be would I have caught 'Carl' author thing if I had not heard it mentioned here?

      I felt the stories moved and while there were situations, they weren't the slapsticky I would expect from a RC breakdown. Well-done, Jazmen.   I guess I liked it on a second viewing. I'm just sorry that outside of Bill's subplot and Chelesa's love life C plot, it did not continue the majority of the stories that were going on this week. I still liked what I got so I guess it was worth it for potential flow interruption. Though I have to note that Eva and Kat have been dancing around each other all week and since it is a by-product of the SilkPress storyline, I love how the story can be used separate from the main part of that plot, which kept this episode with a thread attached to the main stories of this week.   It has been a minute since I saw a situation where a character has to get into someone's room and it seems plausible. Of course, Kat has to use her family name. That said...those scenes did not seem implausible at all, but that could be my industry experience showing. Meanwhile, Eva and Tomas continue to grow closer. But even I had to side-eye when he finally declared his interest for Kat. Because it seem like he had been working hard to give mixed signals to Eva and Kat. And NOW he's devoted to Kat? And I am smh at Kat thinking Eva is the one who ran Laura off the road now. Just le sigh. BUT keeps their rivalry going if she accuses Eva and it turns out to be false. Eva will be looking for the payback. And she will be justified.   I know I'm in the minority, but I enjoyed the Doug/Vanessa/Joey scenes. I've mentioned it before, but of all the B stories, it was the only one that was given enough room to grow and had a build to it. And you could cut the tension in that room with a knife. Everyone gave a good performance. You could see the distance between Doug and Vanessa. And for all that drama...there still was more to play with the other shoe dropping of Doug finding out Vanessa and Joey slept together. Just juicy. Even if the end goal apparently seems to be money laundering.   Lord...Bill wasn't really even out of the hospital for an episode without having to go back in again, was he? lol. Good to see his separate story progressing.    Same for Chelesa and her love life. I'm not sure if Naomi is right. That said, I do like the cliffhanger of Mystery Woman being Bill's doctor. Not to mention Kat with the evidence.
