Members Juliajms Posted December 24, 2011 Members Share Posted December 24, 2011 She's a good actress, I don't dispute that. I just dispute that her back story makes any sort of sense now that a beauty is in the role. This is a girl who was too ugly to be invited to prom? This is a girl who needed Nick to give her a prom out of pity? This is a girl who is eaten away by insecurity about her looks? I think not.

Members Cheap21 Posted December 24, 2011 Members Share Posted December 24, 2011 I think HT's asting is consistent with Ktie's backstory. There was almost a 20 year gap between the time Katie was a regular character and HT taking over. Isnt it possible that this ugly duckling blossomed into a swan in those 2 decades? Isnt it possible she had gained some confidence and has grown quite a bit since she was an insecure pimple faced teen? To be honest, HT is not a beauty queen. I think she's very average. In the early 90s, found her (and her siblings) very unnatractive. Its not till B&B that I thought she looked beautiful and its a large part due to her styling, hair and makeup on this show which has been much better than when she was on Y&R, where I thought she overall looked a mess. Teen HT is closer to how teen Katie was, physically. As an adult woman, she looks ALOT better amd thats where they went with her character. She was still treated as different and less glamorous than her beautiful blonde buxom sisters and thats how the hierarchy went back in the 80s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BadZoe Posted December 24, 2011 Members Share Posted December 24, 2011 Heather Tom would be doing movies if she was better looking. She is fairly plain looking with a slightly plump face although she is in no way fat. She has a body to rival any daytime actress and her talent is wasted on B&B. I watched the last few days because I was home sick, but nothing I saw convinced me I want to be home during the day time with the shitty tv that is on.

Members DRW50 Posted December 24, 2011 Members Share Posted December 24, 2011 Heather is aging well, although that may be down to several of her co-stars having death masks. I think Katie is a pointless character and I despised the story with Storm's suicide and the pity f*** with Nick. I wish they'd just made her a new character, as there is no real dramatic value in her being Brooke's sister and I don't buy these characters as a family.

Members Juliajms Posted December 24, 2011 Members Share Posted December 24, 2011 I agree Carl. i would have much rather had HT come on as Kirsten than Katie. HT as ugly duckling needing a pity screw from Nick didn't work for me on any level. At this point, it doesn't really matter, but I know I would be sympathizing with Kaite 100% more if she weren't arguably the prettiest Logan sister.

Members P.J. Posted December 25, 2011 Members Share Posted December 25, 2011 I don't think HT is miscast either. There's a HUGE difference between being seen as "plain" and being "ugly". Katie was "plain" in comparison to her sisters, two blonde, California stereotypical babes (or at least Donna's blonde now). Katie was shy and insecure, which was probably a bigger hurdle to her high school dating life than being "ugly". And while I hated the "pity screw" story with Nick, I think a lot of people do carry "wounds" from high school around with them long into adulthood.

Members Antoyne Posted December 25, 2011 Members Share Posted December 25, 2011 The Logan/Forrester families may be the most disgusting in the history of daytime. It's just...weird It's odd seeing a Rick who can act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted December 26, 2011 Author Members Share Posted December 26, 2011 ''Hope is still in love with Liam'' God, Brooke SHUT THE HELL UP! She said that about 27 times today, there isnt one episode that passes where she doesnt say it at least once! Just ...STOP! UGH. Love B&B pulling out all the stops and actually going to Mexico! To bad its with this tired group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted December 26, 2011 Members Share Posted December 26, 2011 I loved the Taylor/Brooke scenes until they started talking about their daughters. I thought Taylor joking with her with that gift was pretty funny and they seemed very respectful of each other. Still I didnt think they were that bad today as they remained civil and didnt resort to fighting. I only wish both would stop talking ao much about their children's love life Is Pavelka the go to pilot from now on? Im getting sick of seeing him. I didnt even know he'd be back Im looking forward to teh Mexico scenes if only for the scenario. What happened to Bill and Katie? I thought they were going or are they joining later?

Members Cheap21 Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 A Beverly/Rick/Amber triangle? At least its something new but I have no interest with he and her. He's what like 30 and she's 18? He shouldnt be dating somenoe Hope's age. And Amber looks especially pathetic cornering Bev like that. Speaking of her, how the hell did she get in the building/ Security is said to be tightet and considering she stole designs before, she should be nowhere near the halls, free to roam around the offices as she pleases Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 She called in pretending to be Hope, saying Amber Moore is to be let into the building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 Oh I see thanks. I thought she piggypacked on Marcus since she's the baby mama of a Forrester heir. FC security sucks though if it was that easy for her to bypass them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mistydoll74 Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 30 and 18, is NOT as icky as 50 and 22 like Bill & Steffy! lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members felicity22 Posted December 27, 2011 Members Share Posted December 27, 2011 Isn't it though? And he is being entirely wasted on this show as backdrop for the interminable Hope/Liam/Steffy/Thomas quad. Why bring on JY if you're going to take 4 months to 'ease him in'? I don't see a viable storyline for him here-- doing a Beverly/Rick/Amber triangle doesn't do anything for me at this point. Portraying Rick for JY has to suck compared to JR. And yet he's still doing his best to actually act the few lines he's given. I would be thrilled if they'd do a cross-over and bring Missy Egan over to BB. I'd bet those two would still have chemistry even portraying different characters. I don't see any good romantic pairings for Rick on BB right now. The only one who would be his acting equal is Heather Tom and they're related... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
