Members ReddFoxx Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 At least the wedding was ruined and the Hamiltons had to get married in front of almost no one. Anita had no room to get angry because she should have supported Dani going to Paris and not demanded that she go to the wedding. Forcing her to be that was asking for a huge scene. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 So I wonder why Leslie changed her name From Dana to Leslie, and I wonder if she's had plastic surgery, cause I don't think Ted cheated, I don't think she's(EVA) Ted's kid at all 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ponds Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 I am making an attempt to watch on week 2. Last week I felt lost with so many new characters. I really wanted to know how the wedding ended, but I feel like I am never going to absorb it all. I think I'm too old to start another soap! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Maxim Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 What Dani did today was an "own goal". She showed Bill the insanity he left behind. And she painted Hayley as this normal sane girl... Standing next to her. It will be hard going from Faye Dunaway level of crazy to... making Bill want her back. Unless he is a masochist and wants to live in a state of constant mess and crazy. Which is possible. Who knows. I just know I'm hooked and can't wait to see what happens next. I am starting to care now more about Dani... ever since I saw how unhinged she is... I actually felt empathy and pity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soaplovers Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 I've had my fill of Dani to last awhile... can we have a Dani free episode soon? No wonder Bill dumped her, Hailey/Hayley seems less high maintenance then Dani.. and people don't like high maintenance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 (edited) AHN-dre and White Ashley stuck in the ABC Fan Fantasy crossover elevator is a cliche as old as the hills lol. "I'm sure she'll be here soon," her loaf of a husband tells the thin air for the third time. Please recast them both. Karla has been killing it the last two days in particularly, first on Friday in the very vulnerable and beautiful (and well-dialogued, the best on the show so far) scenes with Andre and Bill and now in today's show going HAM. Was she OTT and foolish? Absolutely! That's soap opera. I don't mind a histrionic, narcissistic and messy character when they are presented honestly as such; it's not like the show is saying everything Carly Dani is doing is great, unlike at GH. Dani is her own worst enemy and the show clearly tells you that. I think KM's well-known crazy-ass soap opera eyes sometimes can obscure her talent lol. And her range, which she's proven to me in the last several shows much more than before. I never thought I'd buy her as a ladyboss of Chelsea's career, etc. But she's giving Erica Kane, among other more deranged examples. Not too sure about that whole-ass afghan Leslie/Dana is wearing. But she's still great. Nurse Shanice gossiping about the IG stream at the hospital is hysterical. Edited March 3 by Vee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wonderwoman1951 Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 (edited) i might be, as well. i grew up with what’s often dismissed as “your grandmother’s soap.” for me soaps have always been about anticipation of a coming event, then the aftermath. only a week wedding anticipation felt rushed. and the wedding was so far over the top, i was actually thinking i was out. thankfully, it was only one day (don’t miss those week long soap weddings:) it was the initial aftermath between dani and anitia pulled me back in and made me want to see more. as for the rest of the episode, the elevator scenes were trite and predictable. and after only a week, i already know way too much about the leslie/eva/ted storyline, and can’t say that i’m all that interested to see how it unfolds. for me, the reveal should have played out over a couple of weeks — maybe even a month:) Edited March 3 by wonderwoman1951 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members CrazySexyQ Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 Beyond the Gates has made me a faithful viewer of soaps, not just out of habit or to hate watch. I love that the characters range from grounded (Nicole, Naomi) to regal (Anita) to downright messy (Silk Press Sheila Please register in order to view this content ⠀, Dani, and Bill). There are so many shades of Black POVs. That said, it's not perfect. I wish the show would pull back from Dani, who is exhausting. I actually like her and get why the writers have anchored the show around her. But every episode so far has been about her and everyone reacting to her stunt of the day. Today was no different, but the silly plot point of having the ex and her family show up at the wedding did make me feel bad for her. But I also see why Bill had enough of her. (Karla looked great tho). I wish one of the daughters was conflicted about Bill, torn between their parents. But lol at Chelsea's phone being perfectly positioned to catch her mom crashing out. Martin still doesn't do much for me as a character. He's just there. I love Black Amy Vining. She's my new fave, gossiping about everyone at the hospital. Derek does seem to have a hint of something being off about him. I'll take anything since he and Ashley are boring. I hope the Ted/Leslie story develops into a strong B story. I think he's been in three scenes so far. Also, wouldn't Ted have formed a friendship with Bill? That's an easy conflict with Nicole if he still wants to be cool with him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted March 4 Members Share Posted March 4 (edited) I love that Nicole went after Dani following Anita's dressing-down despite their differences. Tamara was great, too. You understood and totally got her anger while (for me, at least) understanding Dani's hurt. Same with Anita coldly dismissing Naomi when she doubled down on supporting herm other. Classic soap family nuances and crosscurrents. Martin remains an android. "Humans are sometimes pushed to extremes!" The reason Karla can do as much as she's doing (and do it well) as Dani is because Daphnee is so, so strong as a foundational character. Trying to get Anita to apologize, while Anita keeps her nose turned up. Edited March 4 by Vee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
