I know others want Leslie to have more family around. But I do not, we've got some great characters who were outsiders.  Phyllis (Y&R) comes to my mind. I want her and Eva without kin for a while.

Eva and Leslie in similar shades of green (depending on how the lighting hits)

Kat dear, Leslie is unhinged, why would your mind jump to Eva being the one who ran Laura off the road?? lol

When it comes to nuTed I'm not going to dwell on it but he isn't for me. The voice, the look and the low energy is not working for me. Maurice had a commanding presence and I don't see this actor ever matching that. I know he'll stick around so I'm just going to focus on the other characters in the story going forward.

Another thing I gotta say is that I am at my wits end with Derek. I don't wanna hear about this mediocre white man with his shirt off. He could be butt naked and it won't change that he is absolutely one of the worst actors who has ever been on contract in soap history. To see his performance today when we have our first recast really made me want to snap. The show needs to be embarrassed and ashamed of themselves for keeping this guy around. He has less talent than Charity Rahmer. At least with her there was a comedic value but Derek gives nothing.

June's a mess. She thinks Jacob is hot. First Hayley stole your moms man and her potential sister might steal yours!

 

I love that Colby can hold her own with TMG! Leslie vs Kat for the win lol 

Happy to watch a show with multiple smart Heroines. It has been a minute.

Miss Kitty Kat Brat is my favorite nickname!

• Uh-oh, trouble is a-brewin' between Bill and Dana. What could come out of them meeting up?
• Derek is a complete slob; I'd dump him over it. I really would.
• I appreciate that Ted is not running away from his actions nor trying to really excuse them. He's accepting them. But I need more responsibility to be owned up to.
• Bill just read Dana to filth about her names and wigs, and I kind of love it. They definitely are giving villainous lovers to me.
• Ashley isn't this loose or at ease with Derek... but she is with Andre. This is proof that Andre is the guy for her!
• And just as I wanted to try and forgive Ted, he goes and tries to gaslight Naomi in defence of Bill.
• Ouch... imagine your "mom" forgetting it was your birthday. How horrible. Eva deserves better.
• Eva, you should've kept your mouth shut... because you just put Laura's accident back on Dana's mind.
• Once again, Katherine is smarter than a lot of soap cops; she may be in the business with Chelsea, but she should be going out for detective. And I am sure no one will believe her again.
• June is still being June; I pray she does not change to appease others.
• If my boyfriend keeps having to come to me after things have happened... that is a red flag to me that there is something wrong in our relationship.
• So, Dana does not like the word "crazy", does she? Because, if the shoe fits... maybe she would prefer clinical terms instead? The Dupree grandchildren love recording things they likely shouldn't be. Audio. Video. It's a trend/character trait.
• Yes, Dana has a very vivid account... let that speak volumes, Katherine. Do not fall for this bitch's scheme again. You know the truth. Seek it.

Notes:

• "The role of..." voiceover is back, and I couldn't be happier about it. I miss those voiceovers so much. Welcome aboard, Keith D. Richardson, because you are excellent! Hitting the ground running, emoting, and most importantly, no rocking or swaying while you're meant to be still.

Not Kit Kat brat.

Leslie gave her blow-by-blow. Pay attention, Kat.

I'm not caring for Ashley right now. Initially, I liked her but not right now. Currently, I don't care for her individually or with Derek. I can understand her not liking him doing stuff like leaving things around/drinking straight out of the carton. But she still comes across as immature and sheltered to me with her approach in trying to deal with him/their relationship.

You can tell she's never really lived with anyone before outside of Jan. She needs to grow up a bit and get some more life experience. Derek probably should just move out at this point.

I don't want Ashley near Andre either. Andre has grown on me and deserves someone more interesting and more mature.
