hahaha.......... Lils is telling to 40-Watt that she will be Bitchilary BFF if he lives. if the show wasn't so predictable, then I would say that line was crazy. but since its predictable............we all know 40-Watt will live to bore us again next week.
40 watt will make it through and forgive Bitchlary. He will live to open his wallet for her another day.

He's already trying to get in her pants & this is supposed to be a slow build? :sleep2: The scene was flat out embarrassing. He was like "we have chemistry", now let's kiss. Who talks like that to their ex-spouse and mother of their children?

Instead of chemistry, the more appropriate word here should've been history. Because what they have is history and that's where they should stay!

Its not even the "Villy" thing that's just a repeat. its other stuff that they are laying the foundation.........for example nuJack going after Fenmore will mean he and Red will be reconnecting...........and we will have yet another round of Phack.

its the "new" New........and its supposedly different from MAB, JFP and Chuckie Pratt. they want us to believe its different. Don't get me wrong, the quality of the scenes and the dialogue has improved tremendously but the overall stories and plots still has a ways to go.
For instance, I don't even know what Bitchlary and Mariah are fighting over. 40 watt was so upset over a kicked wire he drove too fast. Sure ok.

Sure ok. true...........they are so few memorable scenes. the Bitchilary scenes are okay........but they could make her more bitchy in my opinion. They need to step up Mariah bitchy side as well. Because she and Bitchilary going at it, just seems like bullying on Bitchilary part. the writers need to equal the playing field.
anyway since the new writing regime has taken over, they are few scenes or stories worthy of a shout-out.

Before they even go there, they have to explain why they are fighting. Like Kay/Jill we knew they were feuding over all things PC1 and then it was the mansion. Otherwise like you said, it's coming across as bullying just for the heck of it. Mariah doesn't even want Hilary's job, she just sat there cuz 40 watt asked her to, so what's with all the animosity?

If people aren't happy, maybe some things will change. If the general audience likes it we are stuck with it.

40 watt will make it through and forgive Bitchlary. He will live to open his wallet for her another day. Maybe Devon has epiphany and donates all his money to the charity or Church? I think SS didn't like the idea that he inherited all those millions because it made him loose his ambitions/aspirations which I agree with.

I think SS didn't like the idea that he inherited all those millions because it made him loose his ambitions/aspirations which I agree with. that would be easy way of writing 40-Watt as being poor. I would prefer it more dramatic in the sense that he looses all the money via the Chancellor boys coming back and taking what's theirs to begin with. then Bitchilary dumping his ass, etc.

I think SS didn't like the idea that he inherited all those millions because it made him loose his ambitions/aspirations which I agree with. I don't buy that logic. Devon has never been about money. Even if he inherited Kay's millions, it shouldn't take away from his desire to do something with himself or follow his passions. Unless they actually had showed that the money changed him completely which it hasn't. He's still relatively the same.

the show is lacking a male version of Bitchilary. all the male characters are all wishy-washy with no substance at all. => Greasy-Dickolas => 40-Watt => nuJack => Neil => Michael => Dylan (well he is gone) => Billy => Cane => Kevin => Stitch
they are all wishy-washy............where are the alpha males? Like Adam 1.0 or 2.0? with all those characters being that way...........the Bore-meter scale will always top an 8/10

Technically, only ratings can show them (more or less) objectively what the audience actually wants (or doesn't want) to watch.
