I like WR and sadly, I am actually getting used to Parking Lot Peter. I just think he and Maxie are beyond forced and Kirsten Storms couldn't be more checked out. I think Peter and Lulu would have worked better. 

 

I don't think he'd be right for Nathan. He's too young looking for say Steven Lars (and the show forgets he and Tom Hardy exist apparently). Maybe a reformed Logan back from the dead? (I forget how he died, but it's a soap ....) lol (although Mark Lawson works better for that, IMO, but of course he's playing a newbie. Wouldn't want to you know, recast Lucky or something)

 

It's just a shame so many of Frank's pets dominate the counts and airtime and are all in forced couplings that are hard to stomach. I actually think Lucky could have been a good role for Ramsey. Weird, I know. But I could see it (or I've just lost my mind? LOL)

I'm still on the fence about him, and I really didn't like that they made him Anna's son. I was hoping that that would be rewritten and that Alex would be Peter's mother and Anna just had the memory, but the show seems to have forgotten all about that. Maybe they'll revive that when Finola Hughes comes back.

 

I'd kind of like to see a Maxie/Peter/Lulu triangle. Maxie and Peter are boring together and a triangle would give them some good story. All the elements (Lulu and Peter working closely, Lulu losing Dante) are there for it. 

 

Lulu killed Logan by accident to stop him from attacking Maxie. Mark Lawson turning out to be an alive Logan actually sounds pretty good too. I won't hold my breath though.

 

And I actually do like some of Frank's pets, but yeah a lot of them need to go.

Love how they said Oscar was born in 2002 today but literally every other line of dialogue is about 2012

Literally in Kim's scenes they keep saying 17 years, and in everyone else's scenes about Drew they say 7 years. It's so glaring.

God, if only. This just cements his trash character further on the canvas. Frank is beyond desperate to make him work and it shows. ABC needs to stop being checked out and FIRE Frank's ass. Varni is also an enabler and not any better. Both need to go. Not saying the writers are much better but I'd be willing to try a new EP and daytime head before showing them the door. Besides, who'd we get? Barbara Bloom? Tomlin?

I am starting to wonder, with the recent writing out of Billy MIller's Drew, the memory transfer of Drew's memories into Franco, and Peter's sudden shift from bland reformed good guy to sneaky villain, that Shelly Altman may have left the building a bit earlier than we were all told.

    • Better than 90 percent of what I see today on my screen. Absolutely mesmerizing.

      I LOVED HER TOO! She was crazy but great on Desperate Housewives! And that "The Powers That Be" show in which she was John Forsythe's daughter as well! Many people she would've done a great Maris on Frasier too
    • Hey boys, I know these aren’t really thirst traps but I think they belong here. Don’t ya agree?

    • That’s one of the things I’ve liked since the new writers came in; more interactions between characters that they hadn’t really had scenes with 
    • Such a missed opportunity… 
    • Loved Valerie Mahaffey as crazy as a box of frogs Sandy Cooper on Wings. 2025 needs to chill out already. May Ms. Mahaffey rest in peace.
    • She was great on there. And Wings. And so many shows. I don't feel like we get those character actors as much now.
    • Cady did have a southern accent as Dixie in her first few years playing the character... but it started to minimize the longer she played the character (which tracks because my aunt had a heavy southern accent when married my uncle and years living in the north has softened it quite a bit). Her initial stint playing Rosanna was partly due to mirroring the previous actress and eventually developing her own take on the character. And the thing about her take as Kelly on Y & R was that she was too sedate when she first took over playing the role (she was supposed to play a woman that had recently lost her child.. and trying to keep things together) and then went OTT crazy and didn't play it well.    And I don't care to remember her attempt at playing Jennifer on Days. I think this Pamela character is the first time she's playing a character from the start and I think she's like a kid at a candy store.  She's having so much fun trying different things... and I hope eventually she decides to settle on a more consistent character for Pamela (perhaps her love of accents is a character trait based on something traumatic that happened to her in the past maybe).
    • That's sad. I remember her mostly from ER and the shortlived, yet very funny, sitcom The Powers That Be.
