Why
haven’t the Soaps moved me of late?
That to me
is a very good question. The storylines are there, the acting is
there, but I am watching from the sidelines feeling completely
removed. I’m not invested in what happens on my screen.
I don’t
care that Carly has gone crazy. She gone round the bend but good,
yet I feel nothing. I’m tired of Sonny trying to play hero with
Carly. Telling her how he will always love her is only adding
validity to her delusions. The way in which he is behaving would
confuse even a sane woman. Than he leaves her in the care of all
the people she hates most. Ric had already traumatized her, Reese
triggered the breakdown and Sam is the only one that showed even one
real iota of concern over Carly’s sad condition. This woman needs
help and as always, Sonny cannot provide it.
Jax’s head
is spinning once again and Dr. Jekyl has returned (or is it Mr.
Hyde, who can tell the difference?) Now he is all about peace love
and honeymoons FOR Liz and Lucky. Yes of course joint custody is
the reasonable solution, but why was he taking out his anger at
Courtney on Liz, Lucky and the unborn child to begin with?
Saint Liz,
Saint Em and now Saint Robin returning maybe the mob will have to
cease and desist.
Saint Liz
does not get upset when Lucky can’t take 4 minutes to finish his
vows before running off to save Jesse and the Teens. Why do you
bring and leave on your cell at your own wedding anyway?
Saint
Emily is busy helping Sonny, the boys, Carly, Liz and whomever else
she can.
Saint
Robin will probably hit town just in time to save Robo-Jase.
The teen
story, hmmm… Aren’t these supposed to happen during summer months?
Cop Jesse has no more maturity than any of the rest of them it
scares me he is a police officer. Now Dillon is the fall guy and
his so called friends are so quick to believe he could be the
culprit. (All boys want naked pictures of their cousin - yeuck!).
The whole plot oozes ridiculousness.
Over on
OLTL I haven’t seen Nash and Tess in so long I forgot why I used to
be invested. They seem to have been swallowed by wine country and
no one really seems to care very much that Jessica is missing.
Vicky might, but I haven’t seen her either.
Evangeline
is out to free Cristian under the guise of all that is good and just
when in reality it is only a see through ploy to get John back all
for herself. I am so disappointed.
Starr
makes me believe in the old adage that children should be seen and
not heard. Ever!
How does
Marcie get all these hot guys chasing after her? Can she share?
On a positive note, from here it HAS to get better!
