I liked it and I'm ready for more -- some of the pacing seemed a bit off to me but I can't tell if that's because I was trying to tweet and watched and maybe missed a crucial moment here and there.

I agree wholeheartedly with Ang and any other member, I have not been impressed with anything Robin Givens since Boomerang. I'm just not buying what she's selling nor am I 100% sold on Brian White. Now, I'm wishing they could have gotten Vanessa Williams but she would look like Amara's mom as opposed to her best friend.

I can see room for improvement but also realize that it is just the pilot and it is rare that a pilot makes me feel like I'm watching a movie. I loved the envelope being pushed.

I sure as hell won't be watching this show after the way DC behaved, especially the way they behaved towards the Prospect Park soaps. And I watched soaps from the time I was a small child. Supportive or not, I wish she would not try to speak for everyone.

Literally, like if that group of fans she's talking about don't pertain to you then ok.

Tyler Perry's sh!t is laughable and this wasn't as bad as that. Hammy acting to a degree but once properly fleshed and pilot shoot is better I hope to see better dialogue.

Someone was right on about the costumes... however Fashion Nova it may seem, I was loving it and the previews for the next episode.

    • Well awards like these are certainly different from big name award shows in a few ways but this is an awards show, not a poll. Not the same gravitas, not the same cachet, etc. but an actual awards presentation show is going to happen. We Love Soaps used to have one. The Webbys, etc. various.  But if you are aware of a better place for this to be posted, then say so, but to be clear, NOT A POLL. 
    • Ok I just bought Kim's book on Amazon... should be an interesting read.
    • Well, I think she's trying to be funny, and it's technically accurate, if misleading. If you leave out the Sonni part it's "Josh left Reva to (go to) Venezuela shortly before Reva had her miscarriage because of Vanessa." I guess "Josh left Reva after finding out the child she was carrying was his father's, and miscarried because of her drugged out step-daughter-in-law, where he met a woman with split personality..." isn't as "snappy".
    • Thanks for the info. Timm was a model for years, so one could speculate he may have done something like nudity etc... that violated CBN's moral clause. He was good in the role. He had an awesome mop of 80's blow dried hair that would rival Ted McGinley.....LOL
    • Before I met Reva, I really did enjoy Josh and Annie. The beginning of their relationship was really cute, the flirting and chemistry was there. I was fully into it, but then I learned who Jeva was and realized it couldn't sustain. I just read a few interviews that Kim gave online, and it's pretty clear she loves her wine, which I love. I'm a wine guy too, so I'm not surprised she had to have a little here and there to get through some things.
    • Opinion polls conducted by soap podcasters are not the same as "soap opera award shows".
    • Unfortunately, that period of the show would likely just put you to sleep. A part of me agrees, as I do think Robert is a good actor (better than I gave him credit for at the time), but I'm not sure, aside from Harley, how much he ever clicked with other ladies. He did have some spark with Crystal Chappell. I know there were claims they didn't get along either, although I remember reading somewhere (I think) a story about how Michelle was panicking when they had to film the rope ladder scenes in Venezuela, and Kim had to help her through...and Kim had also had a bit to drink.  (I hope I have the details right)
    • Does anyone have January 6, 1999 (2958) in english?
    • Thank You very much for the info
