Geez….could Melanie be any more whiny and pathetic with Maggie? "I need you". "Now you’re going to be with Chloe". I can’t believe she read those lines with a straight face—she’s old enough to be married and get pregnant…old enough to have a career and she’s demanding Maggie’s attention? I was embarassed for her during that scene. Seems like it would have been more appropriate dialogue for Ciera and Hope.

April 28, 2011 at 2:01 am #23206cornbreadParticipantgood point! She was an internet "party girl" who had been around the block a time or two…now she is a wimp! She clings to Maggie like a little girl…weird.

But when she came to Salem, all of a sudden she had a mother, father, friends, and a love interest. Unconsciously, she probably just let everything go and became dependent on all these people. Sorta like letting go a big sigh of relief. Just a thought.
I have to say that watching Mel the other day, I realized she actually is a very good actor. Her quirks and expressions may be annoying to some but they certainly give a lot of realism and color to her interpretation of the role. I’m probably not putting this well but, in spite of my feelings for her, I think she’s doing a exemplary job.

Who wrote that crap? They ought to be fired. Sorry, but no adult would even utter those words. I totally agree with you cornbread. I don’t know how she kept a strait face during that scene.
April 28, 2011 at 3:10 pm #23219PattiParticipantone minute I’m ready to compliment her in her scenes, like with Brady and her comedic banter with Victor, and then in the next scenes with Maggie, I flip to wanting to turn her over my knee and spank her like the naughty, spoiled little brat she appears to be. I wish TPTB as well as Molly would realize how much more entertaining she is when she "acts" instead of "acting out."
April 28, 2011 at 8:10 pm #23235majencoParticipantWhile her character annoys me, I think she is a very good actress, often putting in comedic touches to scenes seemingly on her own. She can pull faces at times but I think with some more experience she will learn to be more subtle.
