Wow, can't believe how bad it was!

Tea's hysterical crying/screaming was unspeakable.  Why weren't they allowed to go to Daniella's room?

Bo and Nora-what are they, 15?  Truly insipid dialogue.  Poor Clint.  Hmmmph, if they said "but I love Clint" one more time!!  Here's a solution, you tow, have a threesome!  (NoI don't really mean it-just sick of it after one show.  I was all for them admitting therir feelings but not the way it has  turned out.)

Matthew-"I'm going to Tahiti!  I promised I'd help Daniella find her father!"  What a doofus.  And speaking of Daniella, she sure showed she was related to Tea the past two days-shouting and bossing everyone around unmercifully.  I'm not impressed with the girl's acting at least in these intense scenes.  She was okay before she had to play angry.

Oh, I did think Thomas was funny with the undressed bit and accusing the headmistress of trying to catch a peek.  Maybe he is Todd's after all?

 

 

I hate to do it, but I nominate Tea for the worst acting today.  She beats Daniella out only because I'm giving Daniella the newbie break.  They are followed closely by Nora and Bo in second.

Nat and Jess tie for third.

Do you talk in a baby voice when you are drunk?  Honorable mention to Gigi.

I think Gigi was the worst on Thursday. She cannot act drunk. (She can't act sober either ; ) Her hair is looking really strange also.

Nadine and Corrine are both creepy as hell and terrible actresses.

I never have anything good to say about either Tea or Gigi's acting, but Tea was over the top even for her.  She takes home the gold.  Dani is doing fine as a bratty teen, but I can see shades of OTT acting.

I love Nora/Bo, but they are so wrong to do this to Clint.  I love HBS and RSW and they are good no matter what.  But the writing, not so much.  I guess I am happy that Nora stopped herself before it went any further.  Nora looks good with the shorter hairdo.

Not bad acting, but the lamest line was Matthew saying  'I am going to Tahiti with Dani to look for her father'.  How exactly is he going to help Dani while in a wheelchair, especially when they are on the run?  Matthew is smarter than this.  I guess he has a crush.  I loved it when Destiny said 'I am no mess' to a snarky remark from Dani.  I don't want a triangle with these three.

Stacy and Gigi scenes are always good for some bad acting.  I hate Gigi's haircut, I don't know what look she is going for, but it is bad. 

I didn't mind Jess and Nat so much.  They are usually good.  But they are dumb for not calling the cops.

  • Forgot to add, that was some really bad acting by Nadine, she is creepy. I also liked Thomas. I wish he would stick around. ladfan
  • I think first stop is Seattle--then Tahiti. I know that Thomas gave Matthew a wad of money, but how far can these kids go on their own? Seriously, ladfan, I don't think I can stand it if Tea gets more hysterical. eom/sea
  • sea, I am sure we will be treated to many more weeks if not months of Tea's histrionics. ladfan

    I'm trying to separate the actors' abilities from the lines they have to say.  I thought Gigi gave the worst performance as a drunk.  And her hair gave the worst performance as a style.

    Nadine and Corrine are horrible.

    John's smile at Nadine was a little terrifying.

    Tea was over the top as always (giggle-sob).

    I think Bo and Nora were okay, even if the storyline leaves much to be desired.  I don't feel the least bit sorry for Clint.

    I don't think it was lame, overall, as you do--just one of those days building to Friday (I hope--the way things are going we'll probably go back to the gay wedding.).

    Other points of interest:  if it was dinner and bath/bedtime for Bree, why was it dark in Napa?  Why did the headmistress tell Tea Dani was gone before she was?  Why did Eli think he and Tea could cover more ground together?

  • LOL. ICAM about Gigi's hairstyle. What is that? BAD!! ladfan
  • That would be the cowlick from Hell. dd
  • The cowlick reminded me of the movie ''There's Something about Mary''. The hairstyle is just horrible, nothing good to say about it whatsoever. Luna

    Matthew and Danielle are complete fools. What exactly is their plan??? I expected better from Matthew. I have also lost track of this storyline with Jared. Why is John doing a solo job as always?? Too much activity right now on OLTL. As someone stated earlier, please slow down a bit.
