Members 1974mdp Posted March 5 Members Share Posted March 5 ITA. They could at least throw in a line saying that they adopted them when they were 11 and 12 years old, for example. Then, it would be much more believable. At least Smitty got to give Martin a quick kiss on the cheek. The lack of affection and tenderness between them has been striking compared to the other couples. If Martin's going to be running for president, he needs to work on being less wooden! LOL I LOVE Leslie. She is soooo messy, and I'm here for it. Jacob is SOOOO hot, and the actor has a nice ease to him that is missing in Martin. Ashley's growing on me, but they really need to have her in scenes with Naomi a lot more to tie her into things. Her boyfriend (Brian?) just falls flat. He still comes across as just generic handsome guy who we are just supposed to think is hot. How much is the actor, the writing, etc, I don't know, but if I had to pick the first character to fade into the background it would be him. He needs an edge...or something...to make him interesting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members All My Shadows Posted March 5 Members Share Posted March 5 Martin being in Congress is ridiculous enough but running for President? He has the charisma of a jar of mayonnaise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 1974mdp Posted March 5 Members Share Posted March 5 Good point about the age! Now, if he said he wanted to run in 4 years, that would be much more believable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Alan Posted March 5 Members Share Posted March 5 I am used to US soaps having ruined timelines because of SORAS but BTG is only a week and a half years old - the ages cannot be this fcked already. If Martin is going run for president in 2028 he needs to be at least 32 now to be eligible. DD has said Nicole is 53. That means Nicole had Martin at 21 at the earliest. But Nicole and Ted met at a professional conference. Do premed students typically attend those? If Nicole met Ted as a resident psychiatrist she needs to be at least 58. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members janea4old Posted March 5 Members Share Posted March 5 They had the scene with Vanessa and the gym trainer talking about the property, in front of Vanessa's husband Doug. So Doug knows what property she's about to show and where it is. Doug asked his friend, the mob-affiliated Randy, for money for his gambling debt, and Randy told Doug to go ask Vanessa for the money. Do Doug and Vanessa have an open relationship? Does he know she likes to play around, and is he fine with that? Will Doug go to the real estate property location to find Vanessa to ask her for the money? Will he be surprised or unsurprised at what he finds? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Antoyne Posted March 5 Members Share Posted March 5 Work caught up to me so I’m starting to watch now. Today is the first day I’ve seen some chemistry between Smitty and Martin. I actually believed they liked each other so far. Kat came in so hot at Eva my god. Eva was so taken aback by meeting her potential father wow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Alan Posted March 5 Members Share Posted March 5 Yes, that would be more believable, and maybe Martin pressured Smitty into agreeing to adopt in order to burnish his image as a congressman 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted March 5 Members Share Posted March 5 Age is one thing, but when Martin and Smitty look like they’re barely over 30 years old and are talking about what to do when they’re grown-up children move out of the house in 1-2 years, it does indeed look silly! I’m notoriously anti-SORAS and always have been, but this isn’t even SORAS. It’s questionable casting right out of the gate. Daphnee Duplaix could theoretically be playing a great-grandmother on this show inside a year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Alan Posted March 5 Members Share Posted March 5 It's not tearing it apart - it's simply speculation about what we are seeing on screen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted March 5 Members Share Posted March 5 yeah and that viral video of Dani is going to ruin any chance of him going far with that pipe dream 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mona Kane Croft Posted March 5 Members Share Posted March 5 I really enjoyed today's episode. Now that a couple of exciting events have occurred, the characters have settled down for some day-to-day scenes, which I found refreshing. Now we are seeing what a "normal" episode of BTG will be like, and it was great! Very interesting to have a low drama day. Great episode!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Maxim Posted March 5 Members Share Posted March 5 The show is so sane feeling without Dani. I almost miss my daily dose of borderline personality disorder. Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
