I think this show is going to have a very difficult 2015; some highs and lows but the stories aren't jelling. And the writers' insistence on going to the edge with every character and seeing how they can get them out of impossible situations is backfiring. It's still fun to watch a lot of days because of the production value and surprise factor and no story plays all that long.

But can someone tell me how many characters have been exonerated or pardoned in the last two years: Duke, Ana, Sonny, Franco, Julian, Luke, Helena.

And everyone who's been shot in the last two years? Jake/Jason, Dante (how many times?),

And how many times has Jason/Jake been on the operating table since Cartini took over?

That's probably how the cast feels when they get their scripts...

That's one of the most ridiculous, self-important promos I've ever seen. I'd almost think it was a parody if I didn't know how seriously that talentless hack takes himself.

When I watched before the girl who plays Emma did a terrible job in every single scene she had. Is she any better?

I didn't even know that was possible. Her work during the "witch please!" era was some of the worst I can remember for a soap child.

I will say at least she's the stage school variety of bad child acting - the kid who plays Spencer talks like he downed his lunch in the middle of taping.

Be that as it may, I made my post based on what Sam said today. She asked Jake if the ring he mentioned before surgery was a wedding ring, and that she and Carly were wondering if he had a wife and kids out there somewhere. Then Sam says:

" When Faison shot Jason and pushed him into the harbor I didn't know if he was dead or alive because there was no body that was ever recovered, and that was probably the hardest part for me. Not knowing, and just waiting. A part of me was convinced that he was alive out there somewhere. And then I decided that....he wasn't. Because if he was, nothing would stop him from coming home to me and to Danny. He was gone."

So she has this convo, using the same exact words regarding Jake and then Jason, "out there somewhere" and she makes no connection. No lightbulb goes off. With real people it would, but these are Ron's people so it doesn't. It's stupidly annoying. The guy stole your dragon, he's the perfect example of why a man wouldn't come back home to his wife-amnesia, and Ron writes her completely clueless. I'm sure he thinks it's great drama and suspense, but it makes me want to kick him and the character in the nuts.

FrankenRon's obsession with this kid is disturbing. There's no 4 - 10 year old Demo!

All Sweeps aren't going to be great, but this wretched child in a fire to cap the month? Something is seriously wrong here.

These kids are talking about how they love one another, one should have told the other they were feeling someone else, she understands me, etc. Who's kid says this?!

Either Ron is re-living a horrible event from his past or he has an alter that happens to be an annoying attention seeking 10 year old. In any event, I don't want it on my TV!

      5-16   Build, build, build. So much of it going on and not bored by any of it. A story continued to be the fallout from the SilkPress/Eva reveal. And I'm happy to see that the fallout made it all the way through the week with C plots being built up to B plots. And then little subplots (Dani's business, Vanessa and her roleplaying games) to keep in mind.    Now that I've watched it several times...all I can think of seeing Silk Press Sheila with NuTed is hmmmm. Honestly, while I felt Trish and Maurice had chemistry, I always felt character-wise that SilkPress and Maurice's Ted would never get back together. At most, I could see them having hate sex. However, SilkPress with Keith's Ted...how to word this...I feel like...in spite of all of her scheming...she has a chance of getting him back given how Trish and Keith interact with each other. And I feel like she's giving 90s DAYS Sami Brady with Austin Peck's Austin where Sami would be playing it to the hilt and Austin...even when he knew better...would STILL be falling for her tricks. Or even when Sami would be somewhat redeemed and he had a 'right' to like her, it would end badly cuz she did something. That was the vibe I got from the SilkPress/NuTed scenes. Keith's Ted definitely came across as a romantic lead in a triangle versus Maurice's Ted where even though he messed up, I saw him only having eyes for Nicole. So...Hmmmmmm. Mind you, I don't see Keith's Ted as stupid/dumb like Austin Peck's version of Austin on DAYS.   Kat being on the case and looking into Laura's accident and giving her recording to Jacob also continue to spin the story into its next logical direction...even if Kat has it tagged on the wrong person. The walls may be closing in on SilkPress, but like she said a while back...she still has tricks up her own sleeves. And I just know the rivalry between Kat and Eva ain't over so this is just another match to the fire. And it'll be good to see Jacob in cop mode. Then Nicole still dealing with her own feelings and wanting to sell the house. Good scenes with her and Vanessa.   And while that was all going on...the plots around them...   1) MARTIN'S SECRET. I have enjoyed how Bill's little seed has been growing in Smitty's mind. And Smitty's being in reporter mode. His scenes with Nicole to see if he was right to be second guessing himself was well-done. I didn't get it at first viewing, because I would think he would be happy that Martin backed down. But I'm seeing it through his reporter eyes, and I get it. And of course, I live for Smitty's scenes with Bill. And Bill is just getting too much glee with messing with Martin and Smitty.    2) ANITA'S STORY. Yassss!!! Oh, Vernon...how I love you. I really enjoyed seeing him slowly coax Anita into calling yet another bandmate. I felt CD and TT were really giving how a relationship can be. And I enjoyed it. Of course, I enjoy that it's clear that Anita wears the pants in that relationship...not that Vernon don't have his moments. They just complement each other so well.   3)MS. JUNE. Outside of the fact that I thought that surgery happened too quickly, good to see her out of surgery. Not to mention seeing Nosy Nurse. Say what you want about her ability to get the tea, but she's really great at her job, and it's great to see.    Well...Doug still has a week. Dani and Pamela are still working on a business. Vanessa is still playing. And it's nice to see those threads still around. But not a major focus yet. And it all still flowed.   And of course...a Friday cliffhanger with Jacob taking Silk Press Sheila down to the station.   So great week of soap overall for me. It doesn't seem like today's episode is going to be loaded on my system until tomorrow. But I guess that is what apps are for.

      It's sad she can't be a part of his on-screen tribute somehow.

      I feel the same. I didn’t expect to care about them but the chemistry is strong and I’d love to see them go public and try to make it work.

      Keith D. Robinson has a lot less screen presence so far than Maurice Johnson had, but I think he's probably a much better technical actor.  I couldn't be happier we're finally moving along with the caucasians. Andre and Ashley better be f*cking by the end of the week, or so help me, just to move the story along even quicker. That's the second time there's been a hint that Dani will get involved with the Doug/Vanessa/Joey story somehow. Maybe it'll happen in response to Andre/Ashley getting together?

      I have this STRONG feeling that if they put Derek opposite a Kat, Eva, Chelsea, or Shanice, I would NOT be surprised to see him pop and shine. Ashley, on the other hand, has Andre and the actress cannot even sell that pairing. I am really starting to believe that Ashley is the problem and might need to become a year 1 casualty.
