Ruthless

This show is SERIOUSLY lacking. The "acting" is garbage, and I can't wrap my mind around the idea that TP doesn't know that it's garbage. I mean really? How does BET feel about peddling this trash? Do they even care that this type of programming hurts their image? Or does the money drown out the terrible dialogue? As I attempted to watch this series, in stunned silence, I expected Ashton Kutcher to jump out and say that I was being punked. There's no way the positive reviews on here are real. No way!!! Do better TP, do better.

The acting is bad but the writing is worse. I keep watching hoping for answers.

You can tell the dialogue was written by one person, run unchecked. Two people will argue and go through every variation of the exact same question and answer. This pads the scenes to well over how long they would normally go in a properly written show. The plot is stretched out to put it at 24 episodes a season. Mind you, I only watched the first 7 episodes before I bowed out. I just can't continue. It gets one star out of the respect I have for what Tyler Perry has done overall and one for the beautiful women on the show.

The acting in this show and the dialogue are absolutely atrocious. Each scene just drags on and on and on.

In The Haves, The Oval, and now Ruthless, Tyler's lines go like this: "Are you going to the store?" "Yes, I'm going to the store." "Why are you going to the store?" "Because I want to" "Are you sure the store is where you are going?" " I SAID I was going to the store and that's where I'm going" "I don't really believe you're going to a store." "Well then where do you think I'm going?"

Once Tyler stops doing this mess, his shows will be PERFECT. They are entertaining as all hell, but he really should listen to Oprah and hire writers. No offense Tyler, we love you. But stop trying to write your own scripts.
