New year, new UOs (or old ones)...

I'll start by saying...

1. Anyone who considers that showkilling bootleg Janet Wood bitch as any kind of effective EP's opinion is null and void.

2. Anyone that can take time out of their day to 'hate watch' a show deserves to be mocked by the show's staff, cast, and network execs (including those that I can't stand) for all time for their delusional entitlement.

3. For all the talk about those who rail against those who tell them to stop watching if they hate a show much and claim that they'll be the ones to beg them to come back, those haters will be the actual ones holding up the SOS signs and spearheading those petitions.

4. 'Bland' and 'boring' are code words that the majority of (non-) POC viewers feel threatened by a POC character whose mere presence threatens their raggedy white favorites (especially for prominent airtime), yet can't quite rag on their looks or acting.

As chicklits mentioned, Mark Teschner is overrated. I don't think he has cast anyone that good in 5-10 years, at least.

I laugh and laugh when I hear praise of Bryan Craig. I've rarely seen worse crybaby faces on daytime. People just don't want to say they only care about what's in his boxer briefs.

I thank Mark Teschner for casting Brandon Barash and Brianna Brown on GH. Two great finds!

Is it a bad thing to take to someone based in how he fills his Under Armours? If so, then I guess it's my UO that one can be appreciative of both talented actors and fine-looking men onscreen and that one shouldn't have to choose between one or the other.

Speaking of Brianna Brown and Brandon Barash:

1. Brianna would've been much better served as Lisa if they'd allowed her to play the wily and slightly unhinged shitstarter that she was testing out right after she'd slept with Emma's sperm donor. The minute that that hack Guza turned her into the predictable blubbering mess is when I lost what little interest I had of her as a villain.

2. Hot Johnny had the misfortune of being introduced in the wrong GH era, which is why he wasn't able to thrive as he should've. Sure, he was borne out of the bootleg Sopranos setting, but I think that he'd have been much better served if he were introduced about a decade before (back when Sonny thrived as a villain-turned-leading-man off the strength of great writing and how early Zander benefitted from the residual of that before being thrown under the bus).

Brandon's acting was average and by the time he left GH he was looking bloated as hell.

You and me both. 6 years ago people would've been calling BC a hair model.

Unpopular: Turning Lily ( as played by CK) into a bitch on Y&R has been the best thing to happen to her character. I actually like her now.

That's on the show, not the viewers. "Cartini" haven't cast an attractive man who can really act since Mark Lawson, or maybe Josh Kelly.

she was a bitch when I watched and I found her annoying.

Yep! She's always annoying. But the break from sugary valley ho was such a welcome change that she ended up being less annoying than she usually is.

The character will never work unless she is recast & they adjust the writing.

whats changed with her?

she was a bitch when I watched and I found her annoying.

When she was about 14 when she first showed up...but I don't count that because that's how almost al teens are...but this new grow up snark that calls people out it amusing. It's about time she gets a female rival again...there was only so much arguing she could do with her family over that imposter husband of hers before I had to start FF.

whats changed with her?

The addition of Hilary as her foe makes her more interesting.

whats changed with her?

Nothing really. She still is the same "WUV THE TWINS!" "Cane is sexxxiiiii" "You'll be fine!" "Boo hoo I have cancer" bitch but she had a few scenes were she was snarky & bitchy and it was a refreshing change from the saccharine.

I asnt watching when she was 14, so no. I recall her being quite bitchy towards Amber and Chloe and that was a few years ago

She's been a bitch for years and she's still currently sugary sweet. Nothing has changed about Lily at all. She always gets bitchy with her rivals and she's not really good at that either.

I am aware of that. Once again, what I was saying is that every now and then she becomes bitchy when the plot demands it and takes a break from being sugary.

I didn't say she changed. I said it was a welcome change to see her doing something different when 98% of the time it's the same bland, boring happy sh!t.

She wasn't good at it but it was a break.

I think one of the main differences is that Amber and Chloe don't have the same rhythm or acting style that Mishael has with her. It makes for something different. They mostly just whined.
