Members skiman12082004 Posted January 26 Members Share Posted January 26 I honestly keep going back and forth with the idea of the 3 soaps being in the same universe. BTG, just from the promo, is far superior to what B&B and Y&R has been throwing at us viewers for years. I am definitely on the fence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BoldRestless Posted January 26 Members Share Posted January 26 I think they'll keep crossovers in their back pocket for special events or if they need a ratings boost. I could see Devon trying to buy Anita's catalogue, for example. That would be organic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Joseph Posted January 26 Members Share Posted January 26 Thank You very much for this! Nor this nor the first promo are available for watching her in Brazil! This Looks Fantastic! Much better than most stuff supposed to come out around her this year! With the Exception of the Telenovela HBO is Lauching tomorrow 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wonderwoman1951 Posted January 26 Members Share Posted January 26 Actually, it’s more like, “if you’ve got money, you’ve still got problems — just like the rest of us.” i, too, prefer marland’s and nixon’s storytelling style to the over-the-top glitz and glam of the uber rich — white or black — behaving badly. but, i do hope the show does well. and, since i will watch tamara tunie in anything, i’ll be tuning in, as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted January 26 Members Share Posted January 26 My interest is based on multiple factors but she is the single one biggest one!!! And, both Marland & Nixon are on my list of favorite writers, which numbers to 15! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vanguard Posted January 26 Members Share Posted January 26 The synopsis of this show is that you got big money but you're STILL ghetto. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BetterForgotten Posted January 26 Members Share Posted January 26 Black women have been watching and supporting soaps with rich white people behaving badly for generations with little to no acknowledgement or regard from said soaps. Now they’re hopefully going to see people who look like them doing the same things on a soap that was primarily created with them in mind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted January 26 Members Share Posted January 26 That's a dam* fine thumbnail of what BTG is all about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vanguard Posted January 26 Members Share Posted January 26 Also, I think that Andre's background might've been somewhat changed. That woman ran off the road might probably be his mother with his (and possibly Bill's) father's whereabouts unknown. This might mean that Andre isn't rich but relies on photography (and maybe something shady) to live his life of sophistication as also described as his character. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members vanguard Posted January 26 Members Share Posted January 26 I think it's true, but this is going to be a show I want to watch. Count on it. Remember, ratchet sells, for better or worse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members skiman12082004 Posted January 26 Members Share Posted January 26 I don't see anything that resembles ratchetness from what we've seen so far. Yes, everyone is entitled to their opinions, but as MVJ so eloquently expressed, she likes messy and that is far cry from being ratchet IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted January 26 Members Share Posted January 26 Exactly! She's bringing us what White characters have been shown to have since soaps began, but now we're getting it from the perspective of Black characters, and I love it! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
