Members Skin Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 I disagree. They've softened her severely and completely changed the purpose of her character these days. Maxie was this fiesty, impulsive, fashionista and now she is this kind, caring supportive girlfriend, she's damn near maternal these days in looking after Patrick, Emma and others. KS' Maxie is going to look out of place, especially since she used to be having these cat fights with Liz and doing random adventure stuff with Spinelli before her haitus. KS Maxie was a bitchy, uptight, elitist fashionista. JL's Maxie is completely different from that central image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 I like Jen Lilley and am not looking forward to KS returning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 Finally budgetMaxie is gone and KS is returning. Hopefully she gets as good of writing as JL has gotten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cheap21 Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 Its not like she was fighting with Liz 24/7. She was supportive and helpful towards her last year around the time Jake died. The only reason they began fighting again was bc of Matt but he's out of the picture now so Id imagine they'd go back to how they were before. Maxie is still a bitch with selfish tendencies. She continues to treat Spinelli like crap and she gets all pissy when he calls her out on it. You really think had Robin died a year ago, Maxie wouldnt care about Patrick or Emma? I see her still trying to see Patrick through his drug problems bc of her past and especially since KS played the role during the drug pushing storyline. She's still an elitist fashionista and we just saw her insult Heather's taste in fashion when she visited the old Crimson office. I fail to see the character as being completely different.

Members Ann_SS Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 I don't have an opinion either way, but good luck to JL. Hopefully, she saved her pennies so she can go out there and look for much better roles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 RC doesn't do friendships, or family scenes, so I doubt Maxie would care about any of this. The main problem with "Spixie" is that he can only exist if Maxie is completely destroyed mentally. That is what gets him going. Their relationship is disgusting, and badly acted, and badly written.

Members Cheap21 Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 Huh? What do either of these points have to do with what I wrote? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 You said that you thought Liz/Maxie would become friendlier now. You also mentioned about how she gets upset because Spinelli calls her out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 No I didnt. Skin made the comment about Maxie is different now bc when KS was in the role she would fight with Liz. I responded back with that they werent always fighting and that Maxie did have it in her to be nice to Liz if the situation called for it, and I used how she was during Jake's death to support that. I never said that the two would be friendlier now. She does get upset when Spinelli calls her out and that was in response to Maxie not being a bitch. She is selfish and treats him like crap. She's not all nice and goodness today. I wasnt making a defense on the Spinelli/Maxie romance as there is no relationship now. She's made her choice and he's moving on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ryan Chamberlain Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 Back to fast forwarding the Maxie scenes. I really loved Jen in the role. KS chapped my arse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ER Tosh Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 Yeah I mostly agree. I think some people are influenced by how nice and sweet Jen Lilley seems on interviews and it kinds of bleeds in to the character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 Jl brought a softness and some maturity to the role that KS never did. She made Maxie layered so you saw something beyond the selfish blonde shrieky ditz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
