[alwaysAMC]

Today was a great episode - this is the BTG (and soap opera) I love.

Comedy, drama, secrets, character growth/exposure, good dialogue, not boring...  good stuff!

• Sharon is frosty and bitter to Anita, and it shows in her age lines. Being that bitter ain't good for your skin, honey.
• Detective Walker? Hello sir, who are you? Why are you here?
• Dana, the walls are closing in on you, darling. Be careful! You might get hurt by Ms Karma!
• The country club is failing with its staffing; it's time to bring Calvin and Jerome back; they've been missing since the premiere.
• I appreciate seeing Nicole having natural thoughts where Ted's affair is concerned, and her feelings concerning Dana, etc.
• Sharon, your continued bitterness is strong and harsh, and it's making you look especially ugly.
• Dana is going above and beyond in her reactions, which normally means she's overcompensating and lying.
• Damn, Nicole, is that enough Febreze? You're saturating your furniture. That is insane.
• Eva, you have got to stop protecting Dana; she tossed you out, locked you out, and tossed you out again. You owe her no loyalty.

Notes:

• Sorry, but Bonita Brisker (Sharon) is doing too much in her acting, and it's off-putting to me. She's got to reign it in.
• More use of Febreze and no commercial before or after.
• Once again, Ambyr Michelle (Eva) is showing up and out with her leading talent! She's a superstar!

I actually had a Febreeze commercial right after that segment where she sprayed! It was the first commercial in the group.

I think they need two more meeting spots, such as a clothing store and/or a park.

I don't think Sharon is ugly at all.  I think age lines are realistic and I appreciate them.  I understand her being bitter, event though I don't know what the secret is yet, but obviously she has struggled.   I liked that Sharon had edge and anger -- for me it gave the scenes realness.

Meanwhile we had this outdoor scene in a park with Bill and Naomi in week 1

I always feel that way about Teresa episodes. I haven't paid much attention to Cheryl's name. But I usually enjoyed Teresa's work.

@Cheap21 And it would be nice to see it again.

You made some valid points about Dani. Her human side is what I am the most interested in learning about her. I wanna get to know Danielle...

[Liberty City]

I'm sure, with it being warmer in Atlanta, they'll utilise the Assembly grounds more (they've already shown cast on set being outside).

[Bright Eyes]

It's an equal mix of feeling tortured and superior being a day ahead. Ya'll are getting a pretty good one tomorrow. It puts some things into perspective.

How much longer are Sharon and Tracy actually going to be around? I really hope we find out what Anita's secret is especially if they're going to be gone soon. I'm going to be really annoyed if we wait months on end to find out what it is. We still don't know what Martin's secret is even though it's been nearly 6 months. I can't help but think that maybe Anita might've had a hand in sabotaging or even destroying some people's reputations and careers, as Sharon had alluded to. Whatever her secret is, I don't think it's necessary murder, but it has to be really bad enough that Anita's terrified of it coming out and ruining her life. Maybe she got involved in some serious scandal that could've ruined her career but she somehow managed to keep it under wraps. 

Also, are we ever going to get back to the corrupt partner storyline with Jacob or has that been officially dropped? I totally forgot about that until now. I won't be surprised if TPTB decided to drop it at some point. 

[Rmodelboy]

Yes today had some great stuff !!!!

Yes and Colby and Trisha are proving to be quite the dynamic duo as well.

Trying on the jacket was really dumb. Kat screwed up.

Whatever Anita did has to have been really terrible because she looked scared when Sharon brought it up. And Sharon mentioned Vernon twice during the conversation so it's got to be something that he'd be disappointed about.
