HOLY...!

Maura West, and Michelle Stafford!  Just simply amazing!  After months of almost unbearable anticipation, Ava and Nina finally had their first confrontation!  The first thing that made the scenes so great is that it was obvious both actresses were having a blast playing them.  When work is a joy, the audience can tell.  Writing was in top form here.  Every syllable fit each woman like designer shoes.  Honestly, I'd expect nothing less!

My feelings about the brilliance that is Maura West are oft stated.  Perfect choices were made with every breath.  To contrast Nina's over exaggerated facial expressions and transparency, Ava was stone cold, and straight forward!  No vale.  Everything where everyone can see, it took me quite a while to see why Michelle is so loved.  Once I got my first glimpse, though, I joined the club.  She is all in with Nina, and knows exactly how to work.  Every sweet moment trips with insincerity, and every threat is of the most serious nature.

With characters as well-written as these, and actresses who are sure to be responsible for televisions across America exploding, this feud could very well go down as one of the greatest in the history of daytime drama.
