EE: Elaine...
Wasn't sure what to make of her tonight with comments about Tamwar's religion. Although I think it was just ignorance about Islam on her part, rather than mean spiritedness. Easy to see where Linda gets some of her views from though, Elaine's the EXACT same! Her and Whitney are seemingly going to have a strained relationship, can't blame Whitney though, Elaine seems to constantly want her to work without a break.

Are they deliberately trying to turn her into the bitch of the Carter clan? It's an odd transformation. They seem to have considerably softened Babe and deliberately hardened Elaine. At least her and Mick have stopped feeling each other up. I am grateful for that.

I found Elaine horrendous tonight- made me want to switch the telly over. Was so pleased with Nancy for not letting it go; she was awful and disrespectful to Tamwar, who makes her granddaughter happy, is a lovely guy and is super tolerant himself, not trying to push his religion on anyone.
With her attitude to Whitney as well, who already has enough to deal with with her ill boyfriend, I just want Elaine to leave! Which is a shame, 'cos I liked her a lot when she first came in Don't know what's caused the character change, but I don't like it.

I found Elaine's attitude to Whitney more despicable than her comments towards Tamwar. With Tamwar/Islam, it seems as she's just not very clued up on the whole thing. She doesn't come across as she's hating on on Tamwar/Islam. With Whitney however, it's like she's out to get her for something. In almost every scene (maybe EVERY scene) that they're together, Elaine's always having a go at Whitney. It's just a weird side to her character.

I dont like how they are making Elaine a lot more harsh and emphasizing a nasty streak recently, which is making me turn against the character to a certain extent even though I have defended her on here before as I quite like her cheerful easy going personality and her defensiveness over Linda.
That said I think her remarks were more based on mere ignorance rather than mean spirited as you say OP. |

As with everything EE does the sudden character change will be plot driven. It's flippin annoying.

Elaine's comments were based on ignorance, but I'm sorry, the way Nancy spoke to her grandmother was awful. Who the hell does she think she is?

I use to like her but don't get her attitude towards Whitney. It seems completely misplaced for no reason whatsoever.

As Dean falls into the icy water to his death, he grabs Elaine and they both fall in and die. Perfect Christmas for me!

I don't mind her being horrible. Because when Whitney finally explodes that should be fun.
Eventually someone will put her in her place. |

I don't know what Elaine's rant about IMuslim weddings was about. It'll probably be forgotten about however. |

They've changed her character a lot. Maybe because happy, clappy Elaine bursting into song at every opportunity didn't go down well with the viewers.

Or it could be that nobody there has a clue about characterisation there any more

Don't know what's caused the character change, but I don't like it.
