Someone put Maxie out of her misery.

Ugh. And Liz too lol

At least today's episode wasn't too bad. There's was some much needed momentum. As everyone was gunning for Parking Lot Pete. It wasn't deadly dull like usual. As per usual Felicia's MIA.

I had no problem with it. Episodes like this, that are basically the calm before the storm, are necessary on soaps. And the ending was a bit of a surprise too

[Faulkner]

I was thinking the same thing! These women who exist only to “stand by their men” are just pathetic.

[Taoboi]

Very good to hear as I play catch up.

Thought that was a gang sign.

 

Unrelated, a major issue im noticing is that too many new characters have complex backstories that did not play out on screen. Example being Nina, Madeline, and her coma or Peter's origins. 

 

Likewise, there are way too many random family conections and rewriting of History to make characters related to each other. Ex. Franco, Heather and Scott, Nelle, Nina and Frank Benson. Peter, Ana, Britt, and Faison.

That's Frank's way of keeping his friends and pets on the canvas: tie them to existing, likable characters in order to get fans to like them as well.

 

And honestly, they've tied so many characters and storylines to Peter and all of his stuff that I'm starting to forget some of it.

Wow. Tristan Rogers came out and said Wes was miscast as Peter August, and that the writers failed with their stories for him:

The juicy backstage drama continues. This is way better than today's episode. Mr. Rogers speaking truths.

He's right. This has gone for over 3 years, and they've tied so much stuff to Peter and Faison and what happened with Drew and Jason and all that crap and there's been no payoff for practically any of it. Just a lot of abrupt endings and rewrites, which ultimately is bad writing.

 

I kind of want to give Chris Van Etten the benefit of the doubt and blame it all on Frank and his interfering, but sometimes I wonder who's at fault here for all of this.
