I don't know who does the hairstyles, but surely the "stylist" must HATE the women of the cast. All their hair looks terrible. Gloria used to look really good, but now the flat, straight hair is HORRIBLE and Nickki NEVER has a great hairstyle, nor does Sharon - or most of the female cast. REPLACE THE HAIRSTYLISTS with people who know how to make these women look good 'cause they sure don't now!

ok....that last scene of gloria on dec 6........good acting a bit over the top.....
but than when you get back at the one person you hate....why not over dramatize the situation lololol
this is for the writers....on the character gloria.......you have got to make her accountable for her actions...
if you have everybody else being accountable...why not gloria....ex..phyllis...victor squealed by his own son...
but gloria had someone accidentally killed....this has got to be accountable.....i know everyone well most everyone
hates gloria..and this is what you want.....but show the accountability....it doesn't make good writing when you
let a character do so much damage and not be accountable for it....
