Actress of the Week
Hello again!! So, I thought over the episode and I’ve picked my actress of the week. I was kinda leaning towards Eva for a minute cause she did do some nice work this week with the Juanita wants makeup story. Still, I think one actress was just a little better:
Marcia Cross. Her portrayal of Bree was always been good and I think Marcia is at her best when she’s playing the schemer. This week, showed a couple different sides to the character. The first was the ruthless schemer, which Marcia really worked. I loved her delivery of the ‘clearly, I’d rather think of myself as rich’ line. It’s not really that funny of a line, but Marcia made it amusing by the way she added some dignified tones in along with the snooty voice, matter of fact voice.
The part that I really thought was good, though, was when she had to bribe MJ to invite Karl’s psycho kid to the sleep over. I don’t think too many actresses can pull off looking so defeated and desperate as they practically beg a 6-year-old to do them a favor. She’s just so worn down by Orson, she’s actually starting to let go of the whole must be dignified at all times thing.
So what do you guys think? Was she the best or do you have someone else in mind for that prize? Comment and let me know about it! In the meantime, take care and I’ll see y’all tomorrow with more.
