And to think I thought Abigail had potential. I could have warmed to a brainy, Lois-Lane type Abigail wanting to impress an older man with her journalistic savvy and academic accomplishments. Much like her mother in the good old days. But modeling? How superficial and trite.
Abigail as a young Lois Lane-type would've been splendid to watch! This show has such wasted potential!

Regarding the whole modeling thing, I have no interest in this storyline, but I do think that DAYS wasted a great opportunity to incorporate Nicole into the Countess W/Mad World shenanigans. Nicole was a successful Countess W model back in the day, so I would've liked to see Kate put aside her dislike of Nicole and ask Nicole to return to modeling for the relaunch of Countess W. Meanwhile, Madison could try to poach Nicole as a model for Mad World. I'd welcome a storyline for Nicole that had her doing more than just passing time until beastsex is revealed.

And if Nicole agreed to work for Countess W, then DAYS could do some great stuff with Lucas and Nicole having to stifle their antagonism of each other in order to work together and make Countess W successful again.


Regarding Nicole...that would have been such a great idea, but now since we know that Kate is only focusing on the "younger" set, she won't use Nicole. Having said this, though, she'd be a great catch for MadWorld and think of the angst of Nicole working for the competition and for her ex's current girlfriend.

WHY???????? Heaven forbid ONE person in town hates Melanie!! WTF?!???!!??!!??!!??!! I think Abby was right to be pissed off at her and now she's forgiving her. Lame. And Abby, the only one in the teenybopper set who had a brain now wants to be a vacuous model? And Melanie as a model? GMAFB!!!!!!!!! Melanie can't even stand still long enough for someone to snap a picture, she's a total spazz and looks very un model like to me!

Ugh. I hope it plays out a Hell of a lot better than it sounds because it sounds like a lot of suckage to me!

Gone, But Not Forgotten!

I really don`t mind if Abigail models, I just don`t want her to give up her studies. I think this is going to be a huge issue between Jen and Abi.

I am interested to see Abigail and Melanie work out their friendship. In young love, the boyfriend & girlfriend switcheroo is common. It start out okay, but then you get, your best friend and I hit it off even more. Works both ways for guys and girls. I hope Abi lets go the need for control and self imposed hurt, and give Melanie a chance. Abi needs to grow up and realize relationship are not perfect and that these things happen. Abi is over Chad and she should just want her freinds to be happy.

I am not sure I want Abigail`s new role mode to be Madison, but I guess since her mom is preoccupied lately, Abi is desperately seeking guidance and trying to cover up the difficult place she is in. Abi is starting to remind of Jack, who when his life was in turmoil, through himself into his work, keeping busy and distracted from the issues at hand. Abi is currently in a lot of turmoil at home, with her boyfriend, girlfriend and now her crush on Austin, so she gets involved with 2 jobs and school. Crash and burn tactics, Abi better watch out.

Hoping Abi and Jack work on their relationship as, daughter and dad. They seem to work well together and I would enjoy TPTB exploring this more. I want Jack to be there for her this time, it would mean so much to their characters and relationship development.

good Lord not every body has to be a model. Good grief it would be so much more interesting for Chad-coffee house, Melanie-nursing, Gabby-modelling, Abby-journalist, Will-political intern. There would be so much going on and somethings can over lap. just an example. a patient comes in with a gunshot wound, which is somehow related to a story Abby is doing. So many possibilities....
ITA with this!!!

But since they are going this route... I would have loved for Madison to hire Abigail as an intern. Then Abigail learns that Madison is interested in Melanie for a model and gets jealous. Abigail sabatoges Melanie's test shots (imagine purple hair, mysterious reactions to the cosmentics) which puts MadWorld in a pinch for the a face of the product launch. Abigail offers to step in, saving the day. Melanie learns the truth and the two go back and forth sabatoging each other. Madison tells the girls she likes both of the test shots but she can only pick one. Madison agrees that she will decide who will be the next face of MadWorld cosmetics and announce it at the launch party. Eventually the tension between the girls comes to a head at the press conference for MadWorld new line launch and the girl's fight spills out into the party, embarassing Madison and themselves. Madison fires both of them on the spot and together they head off with their tails between their legs. Afterwards they laugh at what happened and agree that they have both been acting like fools. They agree that they should try to work on repairing their fractured relationship.

At least it would be comical and slightly more entertaining than what it sounds like they are going to be showing us. And while the two are busy fighting, Gabi can steal Chad because Chad and Melanie are....Zzzzzzzzzz!!!!

Ole Abbers is a busy girl. Super model, stalker teacher assistant, student. I would like to see her sabotage Melanie while poisoning Carrie with a little grade stealing on the side. Let's take the crazy train all the way to whacksville. I need a little excitement on this show even if I am making it up in my head:)
