On the one hand it's a shame they went the cliche psycho route with Pierce, but the control aspects of the story and the acting is keeping me interested. I just wish it wasn't going to be all about Paddy in the end. 

 

Finn saying "it's just a matter of time" made me uneasy to say the last. Yes it's Emma all over again. I just wish they could have let the character be happy. He and Kasim could have had potential, and the hooker, Nathan, was gorgeous. I don't know if they still plan to have him back with Kasim but he's going to have to change a lot (Finn). I thought Joe Gill acted the scenes well but I wish the story was not so weird. 

 

The stuff about Charity and Bob cracked me up. 

 

Nicola Wheeler is such an underrated actress.

Nicola Wheeler is very underrated. I hope this reveal with Rakesh leads to something larger. 

 

Now you know that gay characters on soaps can't be happy. They have to be miserable. Every. Single. Last. One. 

 

The Bob and Charity stuff had me cracking up too as they'd be such an odd, unexpected pairing. 

 

The Pierce story is just too painful for me. I can't get over them making this fine, strapping man into a rapist. He wouldn't have to force me down b/c I'd willingly lie down each time.

Jesus! Finn is truly becoming his mother each day. I do find it sad that Kasim's family won't accept him for who he is though. However, Finn needs to learn boundaries. His desperation to have Kasim is cringeworthy. I just hope he doesn't go pushing Kasim off a bridge in the future like his mother.

Kudos to Nicola sacking Kerry's stank ass. Ugh! I am so glad that Nicola did what Rishi or Jai couldn't. Finally! Someone who has balls is in the factory.

I knew that's what this would be about.  Yes, same old Debbie stories. The Charity comedy bits and the brief return of that crazy comedy lady who seems to have popped in from Corrie made it better for me. 

 

I will always have a soft spot for Debbie but they haven't gotten the character right in a long time. 

 

I just hope if we're going toward Debbie/Ross again it's not as awful this time around.

And the Ashley special episode. 

 

I had just assumed it, especially after the crash, so it's a nice surprise. I haven't seen it but someone said the Corrie cast didn't seem too thrilled. If so that makes it even better knowing how that cast operates...

Wow. Really? What is going on tonight? Someone who runs the official HollyOaks Twitter account declared they were robbed.

Why can't people be happy for ED? They are always a gracious cast when they've lost for decades. Just tacky. 

 

What did Corrie even submit? I hope it wasn't those episodes when Calum's body was found b/c they were horrible. Or was it the episodes where Anna got caught on fire? Those were not that impressive either. 

 

 

She was boring during that period (to me) also. I've just never cared for Debbie. I hate that once she's come back, Ross gets sucked back in her orbit again.

      I saw this earlier and had to piggyback to it.   I mentioned before how they love to give characters shades of grey on this show which I love. And with Dani, they have always shifted her between protagonist and antagonist since Week 1. Having good nice moments...and then her over-the-top moments. I still holler every time I see a gif of her mugshot-turn-photoshoot. It's why she's so divisive in my opinion. Just look at this board. Dani actually been background for a month and a half now and people still feel a way just looking at her. Just wait until she's truly back in an A story.

          In any case, when we do see Dani...she's not doing anything over-the-top or crazy. She really hasn't done anything but sex up Andre which is scandalous while slowly catching feelings...but is quite C plot really. She's trying to start her business. Again...C plot for now. She's being there for family members. Nothing crazy, but a litttle too nice for a livewire such as herself as established in Week 1 and when she broke into Bill and Hayley's house so it's about time for the writers to put her back in that 'annoying' over-the-top way. I don't like it myself, but she is overdue one of her shifts the writers do with her so it is not surprising.

      -- Laura to Sonny: "I will always love and respect you." GAG ME. This stuff doesn't lead me to respect Sonny more, but to respecting Laura less. -- Carly being brought into the Gio/Brook Lynn story by Lulu. GAG ME. Why does Carly have to be a part of every damn story on this show?

      This episode was probably the most we've ever seen of Jan.. and it took long enough. The phone conversation between Jan/Ashley also shed light on their backstory.. and I think it explains why Ashley seems to live in a dreamworld and why she's having difficulties with living with Derek.  Derek could be doing everything right and Ashley would still have a problem because she was an only child, didn't see her mother model positive male/female interactions, and sounds as if she was alone a lot of the time. Nicole is modeling healthy human behavior and she would be smart not to listen to Dani's advice... well intentioned as it is. Eva is the character you root for because she's suffering the consequences of her actions.  And if I were Eva, I wouldn't want to be part of the Dupree world.   I'm hoping the Doug/Joey scenes today is signaling that we're finally moving to the next stage of this story... Doug either asking Vanessa for the money, or letting Joey have dibs on Vanessa's business books, etc.   And Joey finally showing his true colors makes me think we might be approaching that next stage of this story.

      Lord have mercy!!! Not SilkPress vs Eva at Oprhany Gene for everyone to see!!!! Though I loved Vernon shading SilkPress. I continue to love all this fallout.   Is THAT Joey's endgame?

      WAIT!!?  You don't want to know CM's workout secrets?  And a recap of his insta feed?  What's wrong with you?   Anyhow, today's show had good character moments.  I feel like Sonny/Laura brought it down.  I really like Tracey and Jason scenes so I think I am a weirdo.  Carly/Lulu were actually pretty good as well, but Carly's dress was some sort of bondage/leather type situation?  It was a strange wardrobe choice lol.
