Whisper acting at its finest.

 

Jack calling out Cane about his sneakiness and non-Chancellorness was the highlight of the episode. Well that and another superficial reason, but that's a story for another day.

She's been going to hard from day 1. 

 

Mariah is the most consistent, in depth, and well written young character this show has had in years. She's infinitely likable and you can tell TPTB love both the actress and the character. What you see now is who Mariah will always be.  And it's not a bad thing IMO. I think she works as is. 

 

Too bad I despise the character.

 your phrasing is A+

 

I guess I feel like she'd have even less of a life if all she did was sit on her high horse, or shall I say bar stool, looking down judging everyone. 

 

 

 

They're convinced fans have a hard on for him. Lol

 

The only decent thing about the current story is folks reminding cane of his past and that he's not a Chancellor. Let's hope it's not a precursor to them making him one after all.

    • Thanks.  Yes, I believe this is his first time with the BDWs.  Was O'Connor still listed with the BDWs?
    • The flow of each episode has been so much better
    • And her evolution was so subtly done. There was nothing like the depraved shows later on, like Game of Thrones, where they said a woman needed to be raped in order to find empowerment. The layers of Laura were what got me hooked on Knots, somewhere in the season 3 repeats. And I agree that her becoming a therapist would have made sense - look at how much her trauma over her mother drove her decisions early on.
    • I think that the problem with Laura was that she had grown to love herself and saw her value in both herself, her career, and her marriage.  She had this inner strength and confidence that Lynn/Bernard didn't know how to harness/write for because they were more interested in generating conflict amongst emotionally immature people. Karen/Mac and Gary/Val were all immature/stubborn to a fault even though they all had grown/evolved.  So the Latham's could key into their essence/history to generate the standard soap opera tropes and stories for them. Even the season 8 conflict with Laura's pregnancy and Greg not being cool with it didn't diminish Laura's fire and strength.  You saw how she was able to move on and live her life as a single mother because she'd already done that after Richard took off.   I saw her response to Greg's kissing Paige as 'that's my husband and I can't change him.. but once I find something better, I'll toss himself'.  She wasn't emotionally tied to him nor his money.. and I think that was partly why she was such a unique and interesting character in the nighttime soap world in the 80s.
    •   They actually had great chemistry to as friends in the scene I felt. A shame it was the first onscreen interaction. Looks better than Bill/Hayley’s house. I absolutely loved that! I feel the exact same way. This is just facts. Those scenes today between them were electric.
    • If The Real Housewives of Dubai is on hiatus/pause (a.k.a. done), then we need a way for Caroline Stanbury to come back to Ladies of London.
    • I hate quick snip scenes.  Such a tired hold-over from the 1980s.  And that nonsense does not belong on BTG.  Bring back the long scenes.  
    • Eva packing, thinking about how good the Richardson's house smells.
