She actually has been fantastic and fits on Hollyoaks very well. It is 100% the horrible drawn out writing for her character that is the culprit to making a once promising, charismatic character into a completely depressing, miserable soul.

True I blame the storytelling and the plotting. Its just been one stupid thing after another for Maxine and very unbelievable at this point. The show as a whole is just a mess. i just fast forward through almost everything. Even the Teagan and Diane drama is just blahh.

I've always liked Alex Fletcher going back to her teen years on Brookside. She now strikes me as a Liverpudlian Kathy Beale. Did she share any scenes with Gillian Taylforth when she was on HO? No, right?

Why does Grace always have that hairstyle which makes it look like she's on her way to prom night?

Biologically, it is Grace and Trevor's. She cares so much because it was her last egg. Her last chance at having a child after Mercedes accidentally shot her and made her unable to carry a child herself. I actually believe 2014 has been a vast improvement over the the back half of last year. Grace, in particular, has defintely turned into a great must see character. And this Kim twist has been a great surprise, especially with where they're going with it.

Damn Ste definitely just insulted and burned any bridge he had with John Paul....PURRFECT...and so true tho. John Paul is sorta boring compared to Brendan. That doesn't mean I liked Brendan at all but if Ste enjoys being beat up by that sketchy ugly weird guy then go for it. Leaves John Paul free and clear for Harry.

Carl, you were a fan of Jess Harris weren't you?

She was mentioned so much this week, along with photo indentification. Zoe and Lisa got a mention as well, but it seems odd they would have Darren mention her this much, even going as far as making plans to meet up with her, to see her at all. Odd and disappointing.

    • I absolutely loved the last few episodes—devoured them! If Trisha and Ambyr’s performances aren’t Emmy-worthy, I don’t know what is. I wasn’t bothered by the lawyer girl not being at the gala from the start, or the grandkids being absent, or Vanessa being MIA. It just goes to show how unnecessarily huge the Dupree family is. And like Toups said, you can’t cram the entire cast into a single episode. Oh and the cue when Leslie was having that fantasy was epic, very DAYS-like. They should keep it and develop it   Minor nitpicks: Yeah, Ted seriously needs a recast—been saying that since day one. I still don’t know where he stands, and he just comes off as a generic nice guy. Not having Ted and Bill share a single scene since the show started? Huge missed opportunity. And not having Leslie get anywhere near Bill in one of her wigs? Another big miss. It really weakened the impact of her big reveal about Bill’s involvement. Now it just feels a bit like fan fiction. I’m totally confused by Vanessa and Doug’s “arrangement.” One moment it seems like they’re in an open relationship, and the next Vanessa acts completely shocked when Doug so much as hints at her “distractions.” Huh? Can anyone explain what’s going on there?
    • You’d think he would’ve learned after the way Sprina took off.  I hope we get a proper Emma/Gio/Trina/Kai quad, as friends, romantic rivals, etc. In the few scenes that the four of them have had together, I felt like there was a natural chemistry between all of them, similar to the way that Cam/Spencer/Trina/Joss was, in the beginning.  And, it would be a lot better than all this stuff with Kai’s surgery. 
    • Hooray we made the exact same critique to Londonscribe!!!!!
    • I don't think they had any idea who he was this time last year. I think they were keeping their options very open. Same with totally dropping the Trina romance that was spoiled for him in the mags once FV clearly took a shine to him. Frank's priorities are bright and blazing in one color. I do think Gio and Emma seem to have worked out given that she is very dry and sarcastic and he is like a hot golden retriever, but I'd still play the field or explore quads with both with very different people - Emma with a scheming young man (of color), Gio with possibly Trina or someone else, or even a boy. Then maybe put them back together, who knows. But of course none that will happen.

    • He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now. 
    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
