This is probably the most I've liked Brenda since her return honestly.

I want all these people who talk about JJ being a great actor to give me specific examples of it

Well, he does a great Irish accent, and I liked him more as Irish than American. He had a great silent moment when he was confronting Luke and he was watching Luke poor the glass of booze and he asked if Luke was drinking. You could really see the pieces fall into place for Lucky as the wheels were turning. Because it is JJ they were able to have a nice moment with a flashback of Luke, Lucky and Sonny drinking. I think all these stories were enhanced by JJ's presence.

I have no idea whether or not GV can do an Irish accent but right there is an acting skill that was needed. TC may have eaten JJ for lunch the last scene, but that is because TC and JJ himself wrote it that way as a showcase for TC. I bet you if you told JJ or TG you felt Jane Elliot was the best actor on the show they would agree with you. I liked GV but it took for a half a second to see JJ onscreen, and then he was Lucky again for me.

Honestly Brenda's return was pointless.

She just needs to hurry up and leave with

Jax

Vanessa Marcil is owning my life right now.

You used to stand for something, now you stand for nothing!

You gave it all up for that BITCH!

Making me a Brenda fan. Go Marcil

Go Brenda. And now it's not "That woman" it's "That BITCH"

Really pretty much every scene JJ is in he is committed to, he works well with the performers opposite in and never throws a scene away even when they are written as garbage. You see his heart in virtually every scene given to him and that is more then can be said for nearly half of the cast including the 'veterans'. He is played as intended more or less, you can only do the best with the writing that you are given and when all is said and done JJ does a brilliant job with what he is handed out. I think his sensitive portrayal of the character is a bigger help to the character then it is a hindrance I feel more invested in Lucky then I have in years.

Uh Brenda dear, this is who Sonny has always been, ie AJ & the meathook

Was Brenda around for the meathook?

Regarding JJ, it's one thing to be sensitive, it's another to cry as much as a small child to show that you're acting.

Like I know I was supposed to feel something for LuLu and care, but the only thought that came to mind was "dumb bitch"

Brenda just walk out the door and leave this empty shell of a person that is Sonny Corinthois.

I'm surprised Guza didn't have Lulu raped so he could draw further comparisons between her and Laura and say that it was a transcendent storyline about the Spencer legacy or something.

Why is Olivia still stuck up on Sonny? I'm tired of Sonny and his harem of women who will destroy themselves and their entire lives for him.

So Carly has guards all around, yet Sonny isn't a danger to her? *rme* LMAO

Is Lulu going to burn down the whore house? I think that's awesome.

Brenda gets the line of the day:

Stop treating me like one of your stupid Ex-wives

Finally an AJ reference. Of course not during the hearing but still.

Wow GO JAX! Great line about AJ, that to be the work of GW, no way Luza would let someone throw what Carly did to AJ in her face :-o

GW totally rewrote some of these scenes.
