The Heat Is Off: When It Comes to Telling Traditional Summer Storylines, Are Soaps Chilling Out?

[brimike]

Wait - WHAT THE WHAT?!

They're killing Adam Munson/Hughes off-camera?!?!?!?

[DutchViewer]

Anyone knows who Forbes March will play on ATWT?

[P.J.]

Wait....Forbes March??? Do we have a character name??? Although I think I can guess....Adam. Wow...I think me likey.

[Angela]

Mason, Noah's college adviser. Mason's gay. First airs 7/14. March doesn't seem to know the characters story, but insists that his character is not going to come between Noah/Luke.

[Dr Neil Curtis]

Adam is supposed to be dead, so maybe he is coming on as Chris Hughes.

Hey Angela--the "disgusting scene" is that in reference to Y&R? What does it say?

[Angela]

Yep, pretty much sounds like. The actual write-up is more about Casey's reaction to the situation (his not-favorite son status with Margo). A pal of Adam's, Riley, comes to town and Margo's all on that.

[Angela]

You know I'm looking and I'm looking ... but I'm not seeing what that is about. I'll look through some more, if I find it I'll edit in the answer.

[brimike]

This cracks me up - so Casey is still living in the shadow of his date-rapist older brother? Yeah, those are big shoes to fill. [/sarcasm]

[MarkH]

Well, he's working on Glee now. A much better gig .

[Soapnut08]

Hey can you explain more about how Margo is all over that?

And just what is Casey's reaction to all of it. Also is Tom memtiom at all?

Thanks

[All My Shadows]

Yeah, the one who sucks is on Glee. The recast, who was eons better (IMO), went back to Broadway. I think he's in West Side Story now.

[CassieFan]

Dear lord, Zendall remarry???

[P.J.]

One, it sucks he's nothing more than fodder in the Nuke vortex of suckage. I didn't watch OLTL, but I know he's hot. Two, I know Adam's supposed to be dead, but on ATWT, that usually means a "surprise return" is on the horizon. Three, Casey's the only one left in town who knows Adam's an attempted rapist. Will, Gwen and Maddie all left. Casey's kept quiet to not completely shatter Margo's idea of her oldest son. The only reason Casey ended up in the slammer is because Adam planted a bond Casey stole at Will's, because Adam wanted Gwennie for himself. The other charges Casey faced in the robbery were dismissed/dropped, but the judge brought the hammer down on him for framing Will for the theft. I'm okay with TIIC finally dealing with that, so maybe Margo's sphincter doesn't go off every time Casey gets in some slight bone-headed trouble....but I think it would carry more impact if they'd dealt with while Adam was alive. Although, I kind of still think he'll pop up...it would be too sad if two of Hal's kids had died.

I wonder if anyone will bother telling Parker his half-brother's dead. Oy vey...I can start shaking my head now, knowing how a pretty decent umbrella story idea is going to be eviserated by the craptasticness of Pissy's writing.
