Marlena's being a B--ch and I love it!

Dierdre Hall sucks as the woman in peril. She is boring as hell as that incarnation of Marlena. But when she feels threatened by another women like Hope or Kristian and she starts to act un-lady like or forgets all those therapeutic teachings she learned in school then she is the best. She was getting on my nerves (even though I know the history)! So more of bitchy Marlena and we've got something good. On the other hand Drake H. was chewing scenery as usual.
Question? How long before Brady and Kristian have an argument and end up doing the horizontal?
I couldn't agree more! Marlena has always been at her best crazy, evil or just a plain old bitch. LOVED when James E.Reilly turned her into the Salem Stalker. Even though the storyline in itself was prepostrous, Deidre Hall played Marlena as the scary killer to the Tee. I loved it.
And I love how they are plaing this storyline out now too. Instead of it being blatantly obvious that Kristen is evil again, she has the whole town and the viewers questioning. Is she or isn't she? And of course she is managing to make Marlena crazy, which is exactly what she planned for! Marlena is going to sabotage everything herself. It is so delicious!!!
Drake Hogestyn's acting has been hilarious in this storyline.
Hilariously bad, I mean.
@everyone: Yes yes. D. Hall is better when she is complex than when she is goody goody. This what they should do to every character. Make them more complex then "all good" or "all bad."
As for Drake, he is bad acting as usual. I wish they would recast him or just let the character go. But then again, some fans would be piping mad. So we're stuck with him bad acting and all!
I loved when Marlena was bitchy to Hope after she, as princess Tina, slept with John.
