The dialogue was not written great, but Ms. Tunie brought it alive for me. She's so great that I felt I was the room with Anita Williams Dupree. Ms. Tunie is so alive. I forget she's an actress and am captivated by the character. Which is an achievement when the storyline isn't that interesting yet.
(in contrast to a few other actors that I feel are just actors saying lines.)
I can't manage any interest in the "teens". Maybe it's because I don't care for kids in general. lol. Not sure the purpose of them being on so much other than strife for Martin/Smitty.
Can Jacob take me in? I need rescuing.
You inserted yourself in a conversation where you presumed we should be aware of something. I asked what gave you that presumption. Your answer was unsatisfactory to me.
The writing lets Anita as a character down. She has no agency, is completely reactionary, and she and Vernon have the same conversations over and over again.
The stage fright/singing angle is such a lame angle as well. There is no story there. They have TT and need to write something great for her.
