This is precisely how I feel. You phrased it perfectly. I was even thinking of saying something similar earlier, like how I wish I could rewind time... and scream to them from the future "PLEASE EDIT THIS OUT!", but sadly... it's not possible. Still... Thank God they seem to recognize their strengths and weaknesses and don’t put the clowns in the spotlight too much. I honestly couldn't handle a constant dose of Alex Olanov in her current state. I would rather stop watching. I'm serious. She is THAT annoying. Especially when the tralalalalalala music is going on.
She actually started as one of my favorites. I found her very intriguing... I wanted to learn more about her daddy issues and delve into the source of her obsessive fixation with men... I still recall that moment when she told little Jessica that her father once gifted her a dollhouse, just before leaving and not coming back... which she has kept to this day. I preferred Alex when she embodied more of a Fatal Attraction sociopath (even if it's a cliche) rather than a circus mob wife. I even went back to her scenes starting from early 1991... and I loved the late summer Lake episodes where she stalked Bo and Cassie. That scene with the boat was sooo good - the music still haunts me. That entire sinister theme was fantastic... until they replaced it with the incessant mob circus clown music that plays in 1992-1993. So the situation is not entirely hopeless. I believe that if she is toned down and portrayed more as a serious antagonist rather than a comedic joke... she could be effective again. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed too! Hearing about a possible Asa pairing makes me interested indeed. Even though I will always remember Asa's hilarious fights with Renee and think - here is family. 😁
