I don't think you're reading too much into it. I was immediately struck when Andre used the word "painkiller" -- and then used it a second time. Why not say aspirin? Or even "Here's something for that headache"? I mean, who takes painkillers for a hangover?

That had to be intentional. If it wasn't, it was a major error on the part of the writers.

A man giving pain killers to a woman who has passed out (or nearly passed out) without her permission, AND while the woman is completely drunk on alcohol???  Alcohol and pain killers at the same time??  Seriously, either these actions need to lead to some consequence, or this some very irresponsible writing.

Fck these hoes! After all that they decide to settle. Which means since this settlement comes in after they switched lawyers, Naomi won't get the money for the pro bono work. Id cuss them out and leave them with the bill

I know Martin gets heat for being strict but I like him checking his kids. They disrespectful AF and need to be disciplined. Smitty is too soft

"Its none of my business but is something going on at home?" Love that she is intervening even though it is not her business

And who is this nosy doctor? He about to get Doug in trouble

He sorta look like a cross between Linden Ashby and Nolan North

Yeah, I didn't like her Kelly. I enjoyed her a Jennifer but I did notice a lot of negative feedback during her tenure.

I expected to care more about some of them. I am fascinated with a handful of them. I agree with you, most of the characters had decent descriptions that have not come tofruition, just yet.

You're right, Andre would be more fleshed out if the writers gave him more scenes to speak about the loss of his parents. 

Kat vs. Eva is probably the best thing that got going at the moment. It's a typical soap for sure, but it works. It all comes down to storytelling and characters to make it interesting. 

Like you, I wanted them to be more edgy, and push the envelope with their stories and characters. It's still time…

I could see that.

It resonated with me. I understand that part of Dani all too well. I just hope they don't make her this powerful businesswoman too soon. They could set a goal but it should be a long road for Dani to reach IMO.

That was a great choice to not make Bill this evil cheating husband. 

I do not see anyone at the moment.

    • The violin smashing was ridiculous but ridiculous in one of those soap moment ways I could enjoy as an end to a dramatic reveal. (admittedly my expectations are at rock bottom with the show in terms of drama so I do think you're right to point out the OTT nature) The clash with Lulu and Brook Lyn has potential if they allow Brook Lyn to get dirty. 
    • They might be doing that until they get a clothing budget for wardrobe that fits Keith.  It has happened a couple of times on the other shows. Louise Shaffer in an interview said that she took over from another actress on SFT back in the 60s and wore only one or two items of clothing for a few weeks because the budget for new wardrobe hadn't come available/approved.    I do agree that Maurice played Ted as more cocky/suave.. and aggressive when opposite SPS (Leslie/Dana)... and maybe the show figured a more sedate/remorseful Ted was what the show was looking for.

    • I have to agree.   I hope Lulu gets bulldozed for what she did.
    • For a show that can seem allergic to drama, that was a surprisingly juicy moment, and much as I hate the term, actually very "soapy." It does seem like something where the beats that need to be played out may not be, so the reveal being as dramatic as it was is a great help. I like that Gio is the one who had that reveal, which was an unexpected twist. And the Nurses' Ball being used for drama but not in a way that felt gross (like a sex tape) or inappropriate (like a serial killer). It helps that Gio is easy to care about when used properly, so we feel bad for him and are invested in his reaction. And it was even in a sweeps period. I do wonder why this didn't happen on a Friday instead of a Thursday. Points to Rena Sofer, who was acting for her life in the background.  I'm glad the director remembered that Ned should have some involvement too.
    • Read her, Mona!!!!!!! And DEAD at 'Good talk.'   Hahahahaha! Of course, Nosy Nurse is listening in to Nicole and NuTed.   And Kat looks great in that red.   Hold up, hold up!!! Is that DEREK with attitude??  
    • I've always had faith in Mazza so I'm glad that was a bit rewarded. I think he could've been slightly less loud and I did think the whole bit with smashing the violin was a bit much. While Lulu being both brash and a busybody is 100% in character, I have suspected for some time that making her the well-intentioned but obnoxious heavy opposite Setton/BLQ is not a coincidence on FV's part. Nonetheless, Alexa is great.
    • Tracy's scenes were after June's. Interesting. Just a guess, but Anita was probably to Dante what Diana Ross was to Berry Gordy. Leslie just steps up the crazy each episode. Why was she stealing things out of the hotel room? On a technical note, is Keith wearing the clothes that Maurice wore? That jacket was huge on him and clearly the wrong size. I'm surprised production would let anyone go onscreen looking like that.  
    • Y'all could be right that it wasn't Henry Slesar.  But I think it's mighty strange that Russell Kubeck popped in as head writer with seemingly no previous writing credits or experience, then vanished into thin air once Somerset bit the dust.  And when you look at the subject matter of those last 6 months of Somerset combined with Slesar's previous tenure there under his own name --- I dunno.
