AMC: Monday May 27, 2013 Episode Discussion

Honestly, looking at David in the long view, he was supportive of Bianca terminating her pregnancy. He didn't try to sway her either way and was clear that it needed to be her choice, and that was right after he'd lost Leora.

Since then though he's lost 2 additional children, one of whom was murdered right in front of him, he lost a wanted pregnancy with Krystal, and Trevor turned out to be Jake's son. He went to jail believing that Cara was truthful when she said she wanted him in their child's life. Then she lied to him about a miscarriage, cut off contact for five years, and then screamed at him that she terminated her pregnancy because he is such a despicable human being. I don't blame him for being pissed off, especially since she made it clear before the end of the show on ABC that she absolutely would have the baby. He has every right to hate her, and he is going to lose his mind when he finds out that child is alive and well and being kept from him.

Eric Nelsen's acting isn't going to get any less OTT and one-note, any more subtle or layered, if people keep praising him for stuff like this!

[Vee]

The perils of democracy. He's actually very good.

[EricMontreal22]

Wow, I think he' sone of the better "newbies" in his age range to a soap in a long while. *shrug*

[Khan]

Which says so much about the quality these days of young actors on soaps, it's sickening.

[ellabelle]

Agreed. For me the bright spots of the rebooted AMC are Eric Nelsen, Denyse Tontz, and Vincent Irizarry.

[Khan]

Don't get me wrong: I think Eric Nelsen is good, too. I wonder, though, whether I think he's good because I have been subjected to so much bad from daytime for so long.

[marceline]

I like him too. I agree that he was a little too revved up in today's episode but I generally find him pretty good.

[Winchester91]

I wonder if Covin was hired to make all the other newbies look good.

[Khan]

I'm not kidding. I pray all the time that boy never wins an Academy Award. Or else I'll feel really stupid for making all those cracks about him as an actor.

[Winchester91]

Khan, don't feel bad. It would prolly say more about the Academy Awards than it would about you.

[Khan]

Maybe you're right?
