Members DaytimeFan Posted February 20, 2015 Members Share Posted February 20, 2015 I think Naomi does a good job too. She isn't on Courtney's level where her acting can move you, where she's raw and live...but Naomi is very good in a decorative part. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mr. Vixen Posted February 20, 2015 Members Share Posted February 20, 2015 Yeah, I think she's good. Not earth shattering but she does well with what they give her. Agreed. Courtney is really doing amazing work. Like I said, she had me in tears in that bathroom seen with Cookie. Thanks boo. So glad you changed your avatar as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ReddFoxx Posted February 20, 2015 Members Share Posted February 20, 2015 I'm in agreement that Naomi has done a good job with the material that she has been given. It's standard stuff, but a lot of models would really flub up even limited material like this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted February 20, 2015 Members Share Posted February 20, 2015 I like Naomi as well. She's perfect for the part she's playing. If they were giving her five-page soliloquies then that would be different, but she appears, delivers some very delicious lines in that feline voice of hers, and keeps it moving. Perfect part. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted February 20, 2015 Members Share Posted February 20, 2015 Perfectly put, that's exactly what my feeling for Naomi is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Particular Posted February 20, 2015 Members Share Posted February 20, 2015 I'm okay with Naomi's acting. I just miss me some Tianna!! I crack up when I see Naomi in scenes with Bryshere. She towers over him. She had some serious chemistry with Terrance. I was trying to think of a younger actress who could really play opposite of Taraji and I'd love to see Tika Sumpter. I think those two would be soo fun together. She could play one of Lucious side pieces. No offense to Grace Gealey at all, it's just a matter of time before someone pops up to give both ladies a little twist. Or even someone for Andre. Rhonda too needs someone else to sink those delicious claws of hers into. Maybe an old college fling or something. In the end, I have a feeling Miss Anika is going to find out about Bunky and blackmail Lucious. It's the perfect roadblock to throw in the way of Cookie and Lucious reuniting fully. I wouldn't be surprised if Miss Anika pops out a kid or two for Lucious. It would be the perfect transition towards Cookie and Malcolm which can't happen soon enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted February 20, 2015 Members Share Posted February 20, 2015 I would kill for Tika Sumpter to join the show, but I fear Tyler Perry may have her locked down for years working for peanuts in Atlanta. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted February 20, 2015 Members Share Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) Yessss to Tika. Run from Atlanta, Tika. RUN. LOVED this last episode. Loved every second of it. That little girl is adorable. I doubt she's Jamal's after seeing all of them bond with her (I do think there should have been a followup scene this week with her though, even though I don't mind picking up story threads episodes later ... but they're almost starting to border on too much going on). At least Michael hit the road. For good, I hope. BYE. Courtney Love has been great. Poor Elle. I felt terrible for her but the second Anika sat down with her I was waiting for that vial to come out and YASSSS it did! Disgusting and awful to do but Anika was taken to a different level after that. I'm not sure they needed to have her do that but I'm also not hating it either. I'm ready to see more of Andre and Rhonda. Both actors are good and I enjoyed the shower scene. I also like that Rhonda and Andre are "real" with each other (meaning they aren't using each other like I sort of worried about initially, at least with Rhonda). According to Chaiken or whatever her name is, they are solid with each other. I'm glad about that. They intrigue the hell out of me. I can't wait for Rhonda to get a real rival. Oh my. Terrence Howard was fantastic this episode. I loved everything. Lucious collapsing, being hospitalized, torn between Anika and Cookie in different scenarios (and Anika looking PRESSED when he said "I love you Cookie" was gold) ... it was good. I thought Lucious telling his family all at the same time was nice and I enjoyed the boys surrounding him and Andre reacting how he did. I like being reminded they do love each other and will have each other's backs at the end of the day. YAASSS Cookie, get that dick girl! I'm ready for her to pounce on Malcolm too. LOVED Cookie's speech. Absolute perfection. I'm dying to see her interact with "Yoko Ono" soon. Those scenes look delicious. I also want her to interact with Raven and Olivia. That could be good as well. I thought Naomi did fine with what she was given. Agreed with AMS though, if it was more than what she's given I'd probably not feel the same way but they give her just enough and she does it well enough that I enjoy it and it works. I loved loved loved her reaction to bae. I hate that word so much. What a damn good show this is. Just solid.

Members Particular Posted February 20, 2015 Members Share Posted February 20, 2015 You know you could be correct but she seems pretty saavy with making sure she has availability for outside projects. Tasha Smith's presence on Empire does give me hope. She's been locked down with Tyler Perry forever and a day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MoTheGreat Posted February 20, 2015 Members Share Posted February 20, 2015 I would like to know who Anika going to see. Is it Andre & Rhonda or Vernon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
