Gloria needs to stop

She had a blast getting trashed with Jack and was more than happy to sleep with him.

Gloria has just smothered this storyline. Every word she speak is overemphasized. Her facial expressions are so exaggerated they look like they hurt.

This is a character they should use in small doses. They are overusing her and it's making the story into a cartoon. She's one step away from becoming a circus clown.

Thank you. They are supporting players for a reason. Small doses work best. I guess the new regime is making it up to the actress for the previous regime dumping her. I love to see Gloria in town, but just not every day and causing trouble for everybody.

I agree, I have never been a fan of Gloria. I didn't mind her at Christmas calling out Chloe (another character I cannot stand), but she has overstayed her welcome. At first I was interested in the whole Jack and Fenmores story, but popping Gloria in the middle of it has made it uninteresting for me. I can only handle this character in very small doses.

I missed parts of episodes...did Jack and Gloria do the deed? Also what happened with Billy and Phyllis in the elevator?

[–] lennonforeveragain 8 years ago

Yes, they did.

Billy kissed Phyllis then she stopped it.

Thanks Lennon!
OMG Jack. Wow!
Glad the writers aren't going back down the road of putting Billy and Phyllis together again.

I must admit I had to FFWD thru that fiasco because I knew exactly where they were going with it. I am not sure, however, if Jack and Gloria actually did the deed. Frankly, I thought they were both far too sloshed to consummate. Jack may have fallen asleep and nothing happened, but Gloria is not above pretending it did in order to extort money from Jack.

I too have to now wonder if indeed anything happened between her and Jack. She has no job, no money and would do anything (including lie) to get what she wants. Maybe somewhere down the line, they will show a flashback where they went to the suite, Jack fell asleep, Gloria took off his clothes and then she got in bed.
