THIS WEEK IN SPOILERS

American Crime: After his attack, Taylor’s life continues to unravel, especially after he’s threatened to keep quiet about what happened. As his desperation grows, Taylor sneaks off to Nate’s where he gets a gun and lives are put in danger. And whatever happens with Taylor, someone is definitely going to die. Meanwhile, Eric is guilty about his role in Taylor’s attack and hooks up with a stranger and finds himself being victimized himself.

BABY

EastEnders: Ben is stunned to learn that Abi is pregnant, but it’s not long before he gets suspicious that she might be lying since he was about to dump her. But when Abi produces a positive pregnancy test, Ben has no choice but to believe her. Still, Ben plans to dump Abi and start a life with Paul, the man he loves.

However, after talking to his family and an ugly incident with Phil, Ben has a change of heart and decides to focus his life on taking care of Abi and the baby, even though Ben already has a child he completely ignores and wants nothing to do with.

Mkay.

Paul, of course, is hurt that he’s been dumped again.

I watch a lot of television, probably too much. But can you really watch too much TV? I've yet to find out. Anyway, I especially love TV when they give us positive portrayals of gays, something that has gotten better but we're still fighting for. I've written about gays in television for many years first at the much missed After Elton, then New Now Next and now at TV Source. It's kind of a passion of mine and I look forward to sharing it with you.

  1. The page for this week aren’t loading!

  2. Now that EE has hired the actor,Ted Reilly, to play NuJohnny, I’d say he and Jonny Labey (Paul) look like they’d complement each other pretty well.

  3. You’re question about “why EE had Ben out all night picking up guys when he’s so love with Paul” will be answered in the coming week. It plays into
    Abi faking her pregnancy and her plan now to actually get pregnant. It’s
    actually a pretty good twist and causes more trouble in her dastardly plotting.

  4. Isn’t that why Page 3 of the Column is labeled “THIS WEEK IN SPOILERS” ??

  5. The guy who came upon Ben and Abi in the caf (EastEnders) is “Jordan Johnson.” He’s a recast of a character from several years ago and has a history with both Ben and Abi. Jordan is actually Abi’s first “boyfriend” from a brief *tween* romance when they each experienced their first kiss. As boys, Jordan and Ben didn’t get along. Ben even knocked Jordan out once, and he ended up in a coma in the hospital.

    EE has been playing that Jordan would be returning since early January. He’s Denise’s step-son from her bad marriage to serial killer, Lucas Johnson. Lucas asked Denise to come visit him in prison, where he begged her to check up on Jordan, since he’s been getting in trouble with drugs and gangs. Jordan’s now staying with the Fox-Hubbard family and to everyone’s surprise already has a young son of his own, “J.J.”

    Here’s a sample of young Ben vs. Jordan:

  6. Anthony, your Teasers for Next Week about American Crime seems to contain a major spoiler about Taylor. Not cool!

  7. Bloody autocorrect
    By Keller I mean Kalle and Ellastone (?!) is Elias.

  8. Maybe days will pull another ‘It was all a dream’! Ha.
    EE: poor Paul… I wonder if Johnny coming back kicks Ben’s bum into action: Johnny and Paul as a couple makes lots of sense.
    Emmerdale: hate and love, two sides of the same coin.
    Holby: never a truer word spoken, Lee is fit with bells on!
    SL: they clearly want Keller to be the bad guy that forces Lari/Ellastone back together. They were a terrible couple though.
    Thank as always ADL

  9. Would I be shocked if “General Hospital” completely forgot about the scene Alexis had with Julian when he was struggling with Lucas being gay and point blank asked her how she’d react to one of her daughters coming out and Alexis pretty much had no problem with it?

    Sadly, no.
