Members Soaplovers Posted April 1 Members Share Posted April 1 I don't know why Dani doesn't open a boutique, or maybe use some space in the country club for a pop up store for some items (i.e. sportswear, shoes, etc) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Maxim Posted April 1 Members Share Posted April 1 Dani needs to start a video podcast. About messy disgusting cheating husbands. Get more viral than her daughter. She should use her newly found unhinged fame after the leaked live and her mugshot. That's what I want to see her do. And it will be a lot easier to shoot and arrange than having her strut around a runway. And way more interesting in terms of writing. When life gives you lemons... make lemonade. P.S The podcast should be called "Trust no bitch". First episode - "How a conniving slut stole my husband. Now I'm going to tell you how to prevent this happening to you." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Taoboi Posted April 1 Members Share Posted April 1 I thought today was a good episode. But in the grand scheme of RC breakdowns, I liked his second one more. Things that stood out as RCisms was the thankfully very brief mention of the cat story that people didn't even like from his first breakdown, Dani's little jump excitement as she ran up the stairs which made me think of moments from his other shows, and we know I love Nosy Nurse and she saved all of it due to the actress playing her so please don't stone me, but how she was in the episode echoed (slightly thank God) OldRecipe Brad on GH and what I know of Leo on DAYS. But again...the character has already been established as Nosy Nurse and the actress has the best ability of elevating everything she's in. In fact, if it was those aforementioned characters, it would have been sillier. Nosy Nurse can be that way, too, but the actress perfectly grounded it in reality. THAT is a skill. I think what I liked about this episode is the fact that everything was moving nicely. It does seem like this week is going to be about the lawsuit and its dynamics among the Duprees and Andre's drama though. I like the former, but I know there are going to be problems with the latter. I love that we are getting to see more of Naomi. I realized today that I guess I haven't gotten quite a feel on her outside of the other third generation Duprees. But seeing her in work mode, I really enjoy her and what it reveals about her character. She was giving a bit of Olivia Pope with some Christine Blair today, and I didn't mind it. I'm really looking forward to Father vs Daughter. They feel evenly matched. Meanwhile, the subplot with her man and the corrupt cop(?) continue. And them having individual stories is really allowing for them to be rootable as the first together couple we saw in the first episode. Chelesa vs Hayley was great, too. Chelesa got all the good licks in on her. And I honestly like seeing Hayley get out of the bubble she's been in with only Bill and Dani by interacting with others. First Naomi which was long overdue and now Chels. Go on. Will she be able to repair any rift between Bill and Chelesa/Naomi? Time will tell. And then Chelesa having to have a firm hand with Mommy Dearest. Watch that girl grow. Dani, Dani, Dani. So much one step forward, two steps back with her. I honestly felt like she really wanted to help Chelesa. And it seem like Chelesa got through to her why she can't. And then she was tempted by the drink. And then she got that call from Bill. And then I rolled my eyes cuz I knew she was going to take that the wrong way. And not helped by how easily her and Bill go into their old roles as husband/wife. And the fact that Bill can when he is newly married is soooo telling. And God, Timon and Karla have great chemistry. And don't think I didn't notice how they were sat at the beginning of the reminiscing. Cuz by the end, their legs were touching. And I gasped and shook my head when Dani kissed him. I'm sure I'll feel differently later, but I felt today was the first time I was annoyed with Ashley. I think for me, while the start of Andre/Ashley has been nicely paced. Now...it felt very paint-by-numbers. I did like that Derek verbalize his jealousy to Jacob. But, like I said earlier, the show flowed smoothly without them so having them back...at the moment...felt like a clunker storyline. Not even Nosy Nurse could save it. And she was the best part of their storyline. Ooooo cool! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rmodelboy Posted April 1 Members Share Posted April 1 I just knew that Andre was asking Shanice her advice about the dinner that he was gonna ask her to go with him. That would have been so good lol 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members janea4old Posted April 2 Members Share Posted April 2 (edited) Dani is larger than life, just like Erica Kane was. No way she'd do something small or middling. I could totally see Dani as a talk show host! It would be a natural progression for her character. Dani has the dynamism and connections to bring on guests, and the business acumen from her years as Chelsea's momager. But a talk show would be too difficult to film for this soap, as there is no way for BTG to show Dani interviewing celebrities - the show certainly couldn't afford to bring in real celebrities, and fake ones wouldn't work. I think @Maxim's idea of a podcast might work? At first I thought maybe Dani could do some sort of DuchessMeghan/GwynethPaltrow fancy home show, as a blog? But it would have to be deluxe and trendy, with lots of followers. Not your average home&family thing. But still, I think that would be way too confining for Dani's persona. So, no to that. She'd find it boring. I think ultimately it will be something that builds on Chelsea's social media brand, which Dani will copy and adapt for her own thing, whatever that thing is.

Members Taoboi Posted April 2 Members Share Posted April 2 I admit...I was wondering if that was where it was going, too. Alas. She will get out of that hospital set yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MontyB Posted April 2 Members Share Posted April 2 Haha. That would have been hilarious. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Maxim Posted April 2 Members Share Posted April 2 I think she's perfect for it. Podcasts are messier than polished shows. I also think something like this will be a perfect place for her to voice her anger in a more healthy type of way. She will feel heard and validated and won't need to resort to violence and law-breaking stuff. And imagine the fun and hilariousness when her fan base starts turning on Haley. It can get very modern and thematic. Youtube is full of women like Dani who have hundreds of thousands of followers listening to their messy lives. But I trust MVJ will think of something even more interesting. I'll let myself be surprised. I'm not a good writer... so I don't pretend to have a good idea.

Members kalbir Posted April 2 Members Share Posted April 2 On what planet is Jacob hotter than Andre? In my mind, Andre is the hotness of BTG. Not seeing any connection. I'm like "damn girl you thirsty". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted April 2 Members Share Posted April 2 Same. I, too, prefer Jacob over Andre. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soapfan770 Posted April 2 Members Share Posted April 2 Yeah same I was at least hoping he’d invite her to this dinner with Derek & Ashley, that would’ve been gold. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members EricMontreal22 Posted April 2 Members Share Posted April 2 Please register in order to view this content Yes, that topped my list, particularly because of course the actor playing Tomas was complete at sea trying to make that reference sound natural (I think he even made an awkward hand gesture.) But I felt like it was throughout Monday's episode, lots of characters saying "indeed" etc. Just dialogue that on the page might read as more clever than normal, but did not work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
