Great post!
I have to vent here. I just watched Tues-Thurs (yet to see Friday, getting tired of this cra*).
I think I have always been a Phyllis fan because I never could stand Cricket. Got a job on mommy & daddy's show, how sweet. Notice she doesn't really work anywhere else - never has. I don't think the writers at the time realized what they had with Michelle Stafford. While she did leave the show for awhile (and the role was recast) I was so excited when she came back. Yep, there is this nearly 20 year old "event" that the writers decided to bring up to create some drama, I guess. Let's put Phyllis and Nick thru the ringer again, two weeks after they get remarried. I am getting tried of yelling at the TV and telling Phyllis that she's a dumb a** for taking that dirt bag back.
So let's give the writers some more fodder.
Kevin tried to kill Colleen and set fire to Gina's resturant. Gets away with it and is such an upstanding member of the community - well at least this week, but he was never prosecuted for attempted murder. I guess the only one who cared was JT. Until they became friends....
Michael - where do I start? He did do his time for the rape or attempted date rape of Cricket (I forget which it was it was so long ago). He actually did jail time, but can now serve as the DA? In what town in America is that ACTUALLY possible? GMAFB!
And Victor! Everyone has forgotten that he locked up the lover, Michael Scott, of his first wife, Julia, in the basement! Even Paul has forgotten and he fed the guy!!! Paul had the absolute nerve to comment that Phyllis is cold - what about him? Wouldn't you call that aid and abetting in a kidnapping? And did either of them ever get caught on that one? It's probably in Eric Braden's contract not to.
Sorry about the vent, but after watching this show since 1973 I am so annoyed at how down hill this show has gone. Bill Bell is totally spinning in his grave!!
