Message: <blockquote data-quote="Daniel Avery" data-source="post: 53508" data-attributes="member: 27">Ava would never have been as entertaining and multi-faceted if Maura West were not playing her.  My God, I even forgive her for the Denise DiMuccio fiasco!It's really a shame they could not have done more with the plot point that allowed Ava to interact with Tracy, because those two, armed with a good plotline, would be must-watch TV.  It would be interesting to see who would learn more from the other, or if it would just be the two of them snarking on their respective moral failings.  Tracy has always had a weakness for men with mob ties; what would it be like for her to have a best friend/partner in crime who also tends to ignore the law?  I remember how promising Ava's interactions with Nikolas were shortly before he left--it could have been a very interesting relationship, since she was not the "type" they usually shoved in his direction. Since Tracy/Jane Elliot is also preparing to leave, they likely won't explore how well those two could complement one another in a 'frenemy' story.Poor Griffin.  He started off so strong, and now...he's wallpaper.  I'm wondering if he was scheduled to play a third in a Nathan/Maxie triangle, and the plot had to be 86'd by KS's leave of absence.The Sonny/Carly "we should break up/we should reunite" scenes are like the instructions on a shampoo bottle: lather, rinse, repeat.</blockquote>
