Members Cheap21 Posted September 14, 2014 Members Share Posted September 14, 2014 I guess I should have said how instead of why bc I know he's out to get Sharon. Did he just bribe the docs to ignore the rules? He shouldn't be able to dictate Phyllis treatment nor be able to force some experimental drug on her without consent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted September 14, 2014 Members Share Posted September 14, 2014 Only one of them could really act. That might have something to do with it. He tricked Summer into signing a consent form and made sure Daniel was out of town with an art show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted September 15, 2014 Members Share Posted September 15, 2014 I'm with you. I don't mind if a pretty face comes with a mediocre actor, but I can't tolerate flat out terrible acting, no matter how pretty the face. MO is a prime example of that right now. She's flat out dreadful, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted September 15, 2014 Author Members Share Posted September 15, 2014 I'd love to see Brooke Newton as Abby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted September 15, 2014 Members Share Posted September 15, 2014 MO would be far more tolerable if her line delivery and tone weren't so abrasive. It's like nails on a chalk board. The actress is almost unlikeable. Partly, because writers tried to make her a heroine type too at one point. And she just can't pull it off with that delivery. If they must kerp MO, they should just make her a full on unapologetic bitch and foil to one of the other younger ladies who can pull off being a heroine. And don't ask me which one can at this point but I do think Mishael Morgan and Hunter King do a decent job in the sweet wide eyed role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soaplovers Posted September 15, 2014 Members Share Posted September 15, 2014 I assume when you say MO, you mean Melissa Ordway? If so, she did play a decent bitch on Hollywood Heights. While I do think Mishael morgan has done a good job as the heroine.. I kind of miss her snarkiness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted September 15, 2014 Members Share Posted September 15, 2014 Abby needs to get back to taking numbers. Seeing her as a victim during the Mariah stuff was out of character. Abby needs a reset - maybe with Ashley back, that will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeeeDee Posted September 15, 2014 Members Share Posted September 15, 2014 After all these years it's still offensive that Kevin (a serial pedophile) had more in the way of overall story & romance than Devon. Kevin & Jana worked largely because Emily O'Brien was a better actress than she was given credit for. Unfortunately she never got a chance to do more than hold Kevin's hand & stand around as a glorified extra in Baldwin Fisher scenes before she inevitably went psycho.

Members Mr. Vixen Posted September 15, 2014 Members Share Posted September 15, 2014 Agreed, Emily O'Brien is criminally underrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted September 15, 2014 Members Share Posted September 15, 2014 Yes. I meant MO. I didn't watch HH but I can believe that she can play bitch. The problem is relying on her delivery to show that she has a heart. And that doesn't work. It needs to be in the writing for her. I think Mishael is one of the two actresses on the show that can play heroine and not become boring, insipid, and a chore to watch. Sharon Case being the other.

Members ajsp35801 Posted September 15, 2014 Members Share Posted September 15, 2014 Please do NOT start me on the wide disparity between Kevin and Devon and what they were given by way of romance and story on this show. It really bothers me. And not just because I am a Devon/BJ fan but because it is indicative of all that is wrong with daytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted September 15, 2014 Members Share Posted September 15, 2014 My favorite part of Friday's episode was Nikki looking like she wanted to snatch that martini right out of Avery's hands. Good job, MTS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cyberologist Posted September 16, 2014 Members Share Posted September 16, 2014 IA but I was wondering how they could have used Malcom in two days...what could have been done differently... Kevin is just asexual to me ... Jana was the last one in recent times that he had chem with. I think there was one other one early on. CM is giving me nothing in in this role, she's not even interesting to look at at his point and her acting is bland and stiff. She can go tomorrow and that'll be that. Her acting against MB really highlighted how bad she is. It was painful to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted September 16, 2014 Members Share Posted September 16, 2014 I tried again to watch a week for Malcolm's return and this show is BAD. I know many seem content with what they're getting and find it watchable, but I thought it was so awful and of course it didn't feel like Y&R. The stories continue to have no momentum and so many boring characters. I'll never understand this new old Billy, Abby has always struggled to be interesting, but Stitch drains ALL the energy out of her. Dylan and Avery are still boring, Christine is being wasted on Paul who has also become boring. Nikki drinking is not enjoyable in the execution. I didn't find anything interesting about Meredith Baxter's character and there is no purpose for her on the canvas. Cady McClain is still terrible as Kelly and the list goes on. The only bright spot the show has is the Nick/Sharon story with Mariah and I do like the fact that the black characters get screentime again, but the stories are SO BAD. Unfortunately I feel this team is here to stay since there isn't much backlash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sivad40 Posted September 16, 2014 Members Share Posted September 16, 2014 I'm having visions of Mariah and Kevin having a bedroom scene with Mariah being on top of Kevin thrusting away. This will never happen but it's thought I had when you posted this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
