Me too - I wonder if she'll guest-star in more episodes this season than she did last season. That would be too kickass. She's so beautiful on any TV show she guest stars on.

She SO should have been nominated for an Emmy for guest actress in a comedy.

AMEN!!!!!!

As you can see, I 100% agree! Hopefully, she'll guest in more TV shows after she finishes with her tour. That would be so cool. But you know what I think would be even better - her to have her OWN sitcom, not one where she stars in it as Mama, not a talk show, but HER OWN SITCOM, you know, like Reba. That would seriously rock!!!!

Well, what did everyone think?

I love Vicki, and have tremendous respect for her, but I truly think that her character and role on this show is rather weak. She barely got 5 minutes of screen time, and when she was, it just seemed like she was out of place. It's not her fault though! They just have to write her better and give her more motivation IMO...after years of knowing her only as Mama, it's a little weird to see her with red hair, young looking, and with *gasp* a different voice!

Yep, she wasn't on for long, I know, but it was because the ep centered around her (Natalie's) husband, Tom (Tim Conway). Hopefully, they write an ep of YD soon that centers around HER and not her husband. That would kick ass. As usual, I thought Vicki was simply stunning! And she DOES look great for being 54. You go, Vicki!
