Members rhinohide Posted February 26, 2014 Members Share Posted February 26, 2014 I wouldn't go that far. I like interlopers as long as they aren't messing with my favorite pairing. Lol. Kelly is a complex character, and CW deserves a lot of credit for expressing the heart of the character. But I think she's been well written. Kept mysterious and fleshed out at the same time. That's hard to do on a soap in my limited experience. Kelly isn't just a soapy type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted February 26, 2014 Members Share Posted February 26, 2014 HeVon I'm really liking Esmerelda. She's going to cause trouble, and I can't wait. HeVon angst baby! Abby and Neil are just 2 people you don't want to be married to. Total drips bringing down their significant others! Poor Billy. I felt so bad. DT and PB are great together! !@#$%^&*] you, Vicky! No one cares!!!!! I LOL'd at the preview for tomorrow. My man Ian is back and he's sending pictures! Yes Lawd! Thank the soap Gods for Ian! So good to be excited about a soap again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted February 26, 2014 Members Share Posted February 26, 2014 I wouldn't say she is well written. Feeling regret yet still stalking Billy in the hospital. Uh uh. If she was claiming to be in love, I could see her being compelled to seek him out. But that's not why she does it. Without CW, I know I would hate Kelly. She is the kind if person that annoys me. I don't like cheating men nor women who open their legs to married men. Lol Oh..I didn't answer your question earlier. They knew each other prior to GC.

Members rhinohide Posted February 26, 2014 Members Share Posted February 26, 2014 All good soap characters do bad things. IMO. It takes a combination of good dialogue and a talented performer who knows how to work it to create nuance and avoid cartoonish characters.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted February 26, 2014 Members Share Posted February 26, 2014 I think Wednesday's episode might be slightly more compelling as a whole. The Hilary, Devon, Esmeralda scenes were fun, though. When Esmeralda casually asks Hilary "...are you sleeping with Devon too?" The look on Hilary's face but I love that she played it cool. Esmeralda dragging Devon off, though, was a bit, ehm, much. It reminded me of a bossy little girl, perhaps a character on Family Matters, having decided that she likes him and he's hers now, dragging Ritchie off. Devon's missing Thelma Hopkins, uh, Dru to throw Esmeralda's hands off with a 'Uh-uh'. Speaking of goldiggers, where's Mason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted February 26, 2014 Members Share Posted February 26, 2014 Mason disappeared and he might be gone. Too bad because I really liked him and thought he'd be the mess in between Hevon. Esme cracks me up and she makes no apologies for being a golddigger. I can't wait for Hevon to get together, but I'm going to enjoy the trouble Esme brings in the interim. With the exception of Vicky and Abby, I liked today's eppy.

Members rhinohide Posted February 26, 2014 Members Share Posted February 26, 2014 Casting Spoiler Lol. She doesn't. In fact she displays total lack of awareness that anyone else could have different motivation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted February 26, 2014 Members Share Posted February 26, 2014 Agree about good soap characters...however, to call them well written, they should be given believable in character motivations. That's where we disagree on Kelly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted February 26, 2014 Members Share Posted February 26, 2014 Esmerelda is all "awesome sex. Lots of money. That's all I need to know. He's great. And mine." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted February 26, 2014 Members Share Posted February 26, 2014 I don't think Mason is done just yet. I expect him to show up just as Hevon get together to black mail hilary with some info from her past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jcren Posted February 26, 2014 Members Share Posted February 26, 2014 I think the recast has potential. They can reboot this character and it is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
