Count me as someone who feels the same. I think Kat is perfection as a soap character. I also like the actress very much, but there are a few things that Colby does that take me right out of the scene. I have actually mentioned these before. There are instances where it feels like Colby is recalling her lines as she is saying them. Reminds me of back in high school when the Type A student who is super nervous of public speaking would literally memorize their class presentation. They would then get in front of class and it was like they were reciting a speech instead of just remembering key points. It sounded rehearsed instead of natural speaking. I sense this with Colby and I feel she is a perfectionist, so she wants to nail those lines exactly as they are written on the page every single time. That is amazing- but many times I can almost feel and see her thinking about the lines as she is reciting them. She has these tiny awkward pauses between words and lines sometimes which give off the wheels are churning energy. It's like she is saying ok what do I need to say next.
