AMC: Josh and Babe

Featured Replies

I like them, I gotta say though, her chemistry is better with JR but I like her with Josh too.

Eh I still like JR and Babe (against my better judgement because I am finding her so anoying lately). Erica probably would have a cow but that's pretty much expected where Babe is concerned LOL. When she was with JR Adam had a cow, when she was with Jamie Brooke didn't like it and we all know how Aunt Phoebe felt :lol:. I still can't get into Colin's Josh that much (prob in the minority but I preferred the first Josh) and think Jacob can act rings around him (no offense to Colin who I am sure is a nice guy). Since I am watching AMC purely based on chemistry and acting these days (cause who's watching AMC for writing anymore? haha). Then yeah I'm still with JR and Babe because her chemistry with Josh doesn't even compare. IMHO at least :)

I hate Babe and Josh with a passion. AMC missed the boat with this storyline, they should've really killed both of them off, it would have been far better for storyline purposes. Both are annoying as hell. Babe is a hypocritical !@#$%^&*] and a ho, while Josh is irritating as hell. Both Alexa Havins and Colin Egglesfield are attractive and good actors, but I've had it with both characters, especially Babe.

I agree. It would have been more dramatic and interesting if both Babe & Josh really died onscreen. JR could have dealt with raising his son as a single father and having guilt over trying to kill her (for about a week anyway, any more would be overkill imo) and Erica & Jeff would have felt guilty for not telling Josh the truth.

As it is, what can the writers do with these two? A short fling and then more of the same Babe/JR scenes? Josh getting to know his parents, like we haven't seen an adult child getting to know a parent 1000 times before? Heck, Erica's been there done that with Kendall, which was a far superior storyline anyway.

I disagree about Colin's acting. Imho, he's mediocre on a good day and just plain bad most of the time. Josh's reaction to the reveal was written with subtext that Colin either didn't understand or didn't have the ability to act out. The sooner he's gone, the better for AMC, imo.

Josh & Babe do NADA for me. I don't see a spark. Zzzzzzzzzz.

But I think they'll put him with Erin.

I agree (well not sure I want him totally gone from AMC but eh at the moment I'm more for gone than staying). I think his acting went downhill and I don't know why because when he and Kendall did those scenes with Greg in the hospital I thought he was decent (not emmy worthy but the best he's been so far) and yet with the Greg dead in coffin reveal and now this Erica/Jeff reveal he hasn't really done such a great job IMO (which is why I suspect that whole Greg reaction was done in slow motion for the whole darn show LOL). I wont say how I felt about his acting in the scenes on the Island only just will say that I was actually more annoyed when Jake and Greenlee were stranded (as a huge Leo/Greenlee fan) because as much as a hated Jake and Greenlee they did act well together in scenes and had great chemistry (Leo just had more ;) ). These Island scenes I found to be somewhat comical and I'm sure that wasn't the intention LOL.

And I hope they do because McT won't be able to help herself but to write for her UnAborted One and her LaveryGirl. And we all know what happens when she writes for a couple....they fall quickly into a black hole of rainbows, cotton candy, insanity, stupidity and cruelty...IOW wholesale failure and couple/character meltdown.

Bring it on Josherin(!), as I want both these character gone, daddy, gone. I'd be just as happy for her to write Josh and Babe as a couple if I thought McT could keep them AWAY from the K-Ms (The UnAbortion and The BabyStealer in Erica, Kendall, etcs faces forever? NO. THANKS.).

I think sometimes Colin has potential but he's relying way too much on Anger=Drama, Yelling=Acting from the newbie handbook on acting. He's been decent and glaringly bad (and props to whomever said he totally misses subtext which is critical, especially in this particularly McTravestyFest).

There are plenty, hordes in fact, of hunky, talented actors out there who can better fill Josh's slot for one more hunky 20-something shirtless wonder. And they don't have to be such an offending character as The UnAbortion.

Babe, for some reason, despite it all, has potential still today, imo. Not that I'd cry if she left...actually, I'd rejoice. But Alexa and/or Babe seem to be a particular fave of TPTB so I doubt she's going anywhere before contract expiration. If that's the case then I just hope for new writers to pay some serious attention to truly redeeming this character, bringing some closure to the more troubling, problematic aspects of her character and letting her move forward without all the g.d. Baby Switch baggage.
