Quick reactions. Let me say I found this episode HUGELY entertaining
1. Jamie, the new Restless Style editor. The latest in fabulous
casting OUT OF THE GATE. The woman just came in and COMMANDED. I
like that the writers have remembered that this quadrangle (Jack,
Sharon, Nick, Phyllis) wouldn't get along. And I like that Jamie is
now a catalyst. I don't know how long she will last, but she
instantly commanded.
2. Adam. Gosh, what a fine character and story. My heart broke for
him...coldness from Victoria...missing his mom. He's not a good
person, but we see there is a tender, yearning heart inside.
3. Victor and Nikki's spat at the GCAC was raw beautiful
writing...giving each other trouble about being "aging". Nikki was a
beautiful as she has ever been.
4. I like that finally SOMETHING is happening in Adrian's story. I
never liked Adrian and Colleen together, so the tension between them
couldn't be more welcome.
I returned home tonight...what a great episode to return home to.
