Great acting!!

This was like the most intense episode! Andre is one of my favorite characters. I wonder what that says about me. lol

I concur, great acting. Let me also say that I am so glad they didn’t have the brothers stuck in an elevator for the rest of the episode.

Yea like The Haves And Have Nots they would of been in that elevator for two episodes

He plays the bipolar part very well. A lot of them act like that when not on their meds.

The break down of Andre is tragic……tihs family is more dysfunctional than the damn GOP party

Lawd forgive me, but it took this breakdown for me to pay attention to Andre, he is gorgeous, was so busy being a cradle robber looking at that lil young tenderoni Hakeem, not seeing that Big Brother is very nice too. He put his acting chops on the table tonight, and I was very impressed. I dont really even watch TV anymore but I make it a point to watch this show every week, and cant wait until the next episode. I cant even remember when I have watched a show this intensely. I hope we are going to be treated to some gratuitous shots of Andre in some shorts with no shirt in the upcoming season.

Great performance by Trai, he mentioned pn The View that he has a family member who is bipolar.He witnessed the family member have a breakdown.
Also I’m loving Jussie’s voice.I hate that there are only two more episodes this season.Then we have to wait until the Fall season.Jussie will be on Ellen Show.The show will air Monday.I believe they tape it Thursday.

Yes, he really did do a hell of a job tonight. I think I may actually feel bad for his character now; before I was just annoyed by him. LOL. That was a good episode though.
