Yass! Very impressed. He's bringing a realness that helps set them apart from the others. A real asset.

IKR!!! That's how I feel about his writing as well. There's such a realness to his writing that I really do like. 

Same. 

 

And I cannot wait to see who plays her.

“That’s MISS Bitch” absolutely made me hollered. I needed that today!

Does anyone else think Lauren Buglioli talks too softly? I get she's supposed to be a pampered princess, but I can't connect to her performances because I always feel like she needs more grit or something. She needs to be more ferocious for me. More of a firecracker, because she's coming off like less than a sparkler.

I will say bringing on Tracy was exactly what Anita needed because she's been all stoic all the time. Seeing her be infallible made her feel human, rootable, and relatable. 

This was the first episode where I feel like the new Ted had settled in well. Pretty good for a near immediate recast.

It's a repeat. Not sure of the episode # just yet.

[Bright Eyes]

Watch it still be more of a classic than what B&B and Y&R would show.

-- Leslie's "Miss Bitch to you" comment was priceless, but let's not forget the good moment when Ted called her a bitch.

-- I like nuTed as a counterpoint to Leslie. I don't need someone who comes off as a killer every time they meet. Nicole would not have married -- or lasted -- with that kind of guy. 

-- And honestly, I never thought former Ted was close to wanting to Kill Leslie, either.

-- Vanessa has become obnoxious to me. Her lecture and attack on Ted was ludicrously hypocritical. The biggest slut in town weighing in on cheating in a marriage? Spare me.

-- Joey and Vanessa are going to have sex on the table in his casino backroom? So romantic, Vanessa. Just what you want in another guy. Spare me.

-- Good Anita/Tracy scenes, but we need to move past scenes in which details aren't given about "what happened." It's not realistic that they'd keep having conversations and never get down to specifics.

-- The previews for next week look insanely good.

[Soapsuds]

He needs to cheat on hubby!

 

Leslie continues to entertain.

 

Love, Shanice!!

 

Tracy knows Anita's secret.

 

Next week's preview has me anxious for Monday.

Speaking of Ashley, here is what the actress posted on her IG regarding her thoughts on playing the scenes between her/Derek (and I think even in her responses to comments, was even team Derek LOL)

Tuesday

The Duprees have been cheated on enough for now.

Trisha Mann-Grant is so so good. I can’t believe I’ve never seen her in something before.

[BetterForgotten]

I'm going to be so sad when she's written out or leaves. I know characters like this have an expiration date or just come and go often, but I really think she's been an incredible asset to this freshly launched soap. You would think she's been doing soaps for decades, she's a real pro.
