I just saw the promo and my god, KA's delivery of her "My friends, call me Kiki" was TERRIBLE

What shocks me is that people thought it might be anything but TERRIBLE! Nothing this young woman has done has been remotely good, and she's had time to put a serious dent int his craft. She has not. KA better stop training under Farrah Fath. Now, all she gets to do is play in the halls with her lesbian boyfriend again.

SMH.

If James got punched in the nose and it never healed.

I think he showed up when he was playing Caleb in a way he stopped doing for McBain. I'd never watched PC so the GH clips were my first exposure to Caleb and the only reason I watched was because I'd never seen ME get that much positive response on this board.

He had some energy. If that qualifies as showing up, then he did. I was proud of him. I thought he might have some embarrassment trying to ressurrect his youth, but he embraced it and played it. As ridiculous as I thought it was, I can't blame Easton for holding back.

But the story wasn't well received IMO. Lynn Herring admitted in her interview that half the audience liked it and half hated it. In some quarters that's considered success. I think her estimation is generous. But who really knows?

I think the whole thing will be fine if FrankenRon are given enough time. They are stubbornly determined to push this to the limits no matter what and soap audiences are forgiving. Most importantly, I think the ponytail will not last. It's all about the hair.

As for RH, he'll do fine as well. It sounds like he's playing a different kind of quirky grey character that he does best.

If they were truly your friends, dear, they wouldn't call you "Kiki."

Kiki? What the...?

This reminds me of Big Business, where "kiki" meant "using the toilet."

How appropriate.

In the Philippines "kiki" is a slang term for... vagina. Seriously.

And you know FRon as part of their summer teenpalooza will come up with a musical episode or 20 for Miss Alderson in which she does perform "Let's Have a Kiki." And, owing to the character's apparently bad girl style and "ReRon" being who he is, said performance will be in the vein of the infamous OLTL "Jailbait" video...

If they were truly your friends, dear, they wouldn't call you "Kiki."

LOL..I have a cousin whom we call Kiki. She's black though so I laughed when I saw that they were calling KA's character that

I just keep looking at the title of this thread. "Kiki and the Mystery Man" sounds like a bad 70s cop show.

Not to be all its okay cause your cousins black, but it's okay cause your cousin's black...I'm black so it's okay that I say that.

That's why they call her "Kiki." She's just a walking piece.

Yep, it definitely has an NBC Mystery Movie ring to it.

See a friend told me Kiki is slang for Jamaican women who love daggering. SO now I think of some ghetto women in the dancehall.

That probably fits KA's Kiki as well.

Is this what people are thinking?

RH replacing James Franco? HELL NO!

I don't see that James Franco was particularly irreplaceable on GH. Wasn't his character and performance almost universally panned? To me, the bigger question is why saddle any actor with that albatross of a character. He should have stayed DEAD. Not soap dead. Just DEAD and forgotten, imo.

Personally, I think the change in hair color puts the frosting on this [!@#$%^&*] flavored cake!!!

That probably fits KA's Kiki as well.

You don't know the horrible, terrifying visuals you just put into my head

At least KA's character isn't called "Planet"
