DROP DEAD DIVA

Not the reason I will be watching

Are you still watching this, FC?

ABSOLUTELY!!!

Adore this show so much!! Adore the cast!

It's been wonderful so far this year. The last episode was so heartbreaking and touching with the young man and his mother.

Looking forward to the 24th! Should be interesting!

I knew Jennifer Tilly was going to guest star but I wasn't sure what she'd be doing. Funny that they made her Fred's "fake" mother.

The little person actor was a cutie pie, wasn't he? I knew a woman who was a little person who spent the first 10 years of her life in the hospital due to all the surgeries she had to have.

Jennifer Tilly truly cracks me up! Truly quirky actress.

The show was soooooo good last night!!

I am so glad the wedding didn't happen and I am thrilled that Vanessa is gone!!!!! I didn't like the character or the actress!

Brooke was really in top form with her acting last night! I love the way she is all smart lawyer Jane one second and then a Deb moment comes out in the middle of it!! She is awesome and I so hope one day she gets an Emmy nom!

So, next week is the BIG episode! I read the spoiler so I know something about the storyline. Should be entertaining. I love Wanda so I know she will make things fun!

I figured the wedding wouldn't happen. I am getting tired of the "Will Jane and Grayson ever get together" subplot though. Either have them become a couple or don't. Hopefully they aren't saving that for the series finale whenever that might be.

Actually, I think that is exactly what they are going to do.

TONIGHT'S the NIGHT!!!!

I think this episode is going to be verrry good!

I can't wait either although it looks like I'll have to. I DVR Drop Dead Divaand Food Network Starwhich both air at the same time. If I DVR two shows at the same time, it means I can't watch any other channel except the ones I'm DVR'ing. Usually when I do that, I just watch something that's already on my DVR or I just do something that's not TV-related. Anyway, one of my favorite terrible old movies is on at the same time tonight so I'm going to be DVR'ing that one and I'll be DVR'ing the late night DDDlater. I still plan to be on the boards though.

I always look forward to this show - so tonight is no exception. I am sure it will be awesome like it is each week.

I am sure all Clay fans will feel he deserves an Emmy award for his performance

I'll be sure and post my honest feelings during the show tonight. I am sure you two will be waiting with baited breath to hear my opinion

I always like to read an unbiased opinion. even if I don't watch the show.

Well, I know from the previews I don't care for the way he looks because of his hair and scruff, but he might be good in the role. He was funny on SNL and in Scrubs as Kenny. Not so much on DOOL or Ed. Hated the Funny or Die OTT silly - those Tori's hubby and kids were good in it. This is probably the most serious part he has had to play so this will tell us if he has real acting chops.

Forty mins. into the show and Clay finally has his first scene. I assume there is at least another one in court.

Being honest here, he looks really goofy to me. The new teeth and jaw just have changed him completely. The hair with just a little part sticking up - I just don't get.

The first scene was pretty short and didn't call for much in the way of acting. I know there is a twist so the real acting will come in the court room.

Second scene was on the witness stand. Also very short scene. A few lines. He did that scene fine - but there was so little Clay on the show you can't really form an opinion on if he has a real acting ability.

I do think Lance was much more natural in his two scenes. Of course Wanda was great. Love her. Amanda was very good too - but she has always been good at both drama (All My Children) and comedy (Married with Children) so no surprise there.

I really don't see Clay as a dramatic actor. I feel if acting is in his future than it would probably be comedy. He was much better as Kenny on Scrubs IMHO.

Looking forward to hearing what you all have to say.

I will say I feel sorry for the fans who have been looking forward to this for so long. So little screen time.

I did not watch Drop Dead Diva. I normally don't watch it and I honestly forgot that Clay was on tonight. Shows you what it is like to not be a fan. How was he? Did anybody get it on utube? I would be curious to watch.

FC watched she explained about his part on the previous page AIH.

FY- Thanks

Doesn't seem like he would be getting an Emmy nomination anytime soon

If I see any links I will post them for you AIH.

I thought the storyline was really good ... very touching with the whole Prom theme.

The real Constance was Wanda's Bailiff (very quick shots of her).

I thought Clay did a good job, with the small part he had. I noticed there was no NC accent!

I thought Clay looked very cute! Believe me, in person ... his face is very slim ... not squared-looking at all. It seems to look more full in pictures or on tv.

I think the episode is up on the Lifetime channel website. Also, there is a link on the CB!

I know many people thought his role was too short, but actually it was pretty much on par for celebrity guest roles on that show. Usually they get anywhere from 1 to 3 scenes.

I was pleasantly surprised. I still want him to shave, but I thought Clay played the part well. I've never seen him do anything that wasn't just goofy. Remember the head of that show said Clay could have had a singing part. He chose straight acting. I'm thinking he might be trying to break into acting and give up singing. Hopefully, he is taking acting lessons. Maybe that's what's behind the photoshoot. But after all these years, I am tired of speculating about Clay, who never says anything.

Yes it was pretty on par with guest star roles. I just thought with the whole "twist" there might be more in the court room scene. I actually thought from the original spoiler that he might be the one on trial with a little more screen time.

WC - I am sure he looks better in person. Honestly, I hated his look for the show last night - I just think with the right cut and style and color of his hair he could look so much better.

Spirit - perhaps he is putting an acting portfolio together. I still don't see him as an actor. For me last night seemed like Clay acting a part where good actors never come across like they are acting. I thought Lance seemed way more natural an actor. But I guess with classes Clay could improve. But would he bother to take classes??

FC, that's what I was thinking. If Clay wants to be an actor, then he needs acting lessons. He is not a natural actor. Whether or not he would bother is another matter.
