PICKS AND PANS
Wow. That was a pretty intense hour with lots of good acting. I know the show had been teasing the death of a regular character, but I didn’t think it would be Cal. I’m going to guess Ethan will turn away from Alicia again, thinking that his brother was dying while Ethan was busy getting busy with Alicia. That kind of guilt is going to be hard to get over.
As for the Jez and Mickey stuff, it’s pretty obvious they’re going to have an affair, especially since Mitch Hewer is going to be making regular appearances. But will Jez take it seriously? Just two weeks ago he was sleeping with Elle’s son and dating the nurse at the hospital. Or will Jez finally fall in love?
Either way, I bet that Mickey probably finds out his brother killed Cal and he’ll struggle to keep the secret to protect his brother, until Scott finds out about Jez and Mickey and makes Jez his next target.
BTW, I realize that Scott was a racist murderer, but the actor playing him was hot. LOL…
Coronation Street (U.K.)
So Todd and Billy really need a storyline, but the only one the show can come up with is giving them a child? I hate this kind of lazy, lazy writing for gays. Every gay character on tv eventually winds up raising kids. There are so many other stories that can be told, why this? And we know where this is headed.
Todd will not want to do it, he and Billy will fight about it. Eventually, Todd will reluctantly agree to do it and after a lot of drama they’ll be two happily gay parents. I mean the show already told us that not wanting kids makes you a bad person by the derisive comments about Drew’s ex-boyfriend who left because he didn’t want to be a dad. I don’t like that either. Some people, gay or straight just don’t want children. It doesn’t make them bad or selfish or shallow.
So predictable. They can do better than this.
Days dressing Sonny like a middle aged mob boss is ridiculous. He looks so silly in those suits and I’m weary of his raging about Demois. This has been such an awful plot arc for Sonny. Please let the new writing change Sonny back into the likeable guy we’ve known.
Why is Paul moving into a Bed and Breakfast? There are no apartments for rent in Salem? He’s moving into a room? He’s a grown man with a good job. That makes no sense. But Paul and Sonny shouldn’t be moving into together anyway. They say their in love, but what we see on screen certainly doesn’t show it. I guess that’s the writing/directing, but they could still make us believe these two are deeply in love even if the show insists on keeping the physical affection on a non-existent level. I just don’t buy this relationship. Not anymore. There was a time when these two had terrific chemistry. But that was two regimes ago when they were actually allowed to interact like lovers would.
Greenleaf (U.S.)
Kevin should stop being so shady to Charity. He’s gay. Why should she stay in the marriage? She could have outed him and caused all kinds of trouble. Instead she’s being fair and civil. He needs to be grateful and stop acting like the hurt party. He went into the marriage lying. She didn’t.
Besides, Kevin isn’t wasting any time moving on following his divorce. He clearly went looking for Aaron because he’s interested in him. So maybe it’s time he quit with the bitterness and let Charity live her life, he’ll live his and they’ll co-parent. I suspect though Kevin will act a fool and that’ll lead a custody battle. And that’s the last thing he should want.

The highlight of Hollyoaks last week was shirtless Joel.
I’m intrigued with the Casualty story, and I have to give credit to the actor who plays Jez. When he was on Emmerdale, I thought he was a bad match for Aaron because there was zero chemistry between them as exemplified in the least passionate kiss ever filmed. Now I see that the problem in that pairing was Danny Miller and that this guy just needed a proper scene partner and not one for whom he was simply part of an exit story line that meant he would not have to kiss blokes again.
No question Scott is hot as hell. Search Google images for the actor (Will Austin) and you will be pleasantly surprised. He was in a stage production of Gods & Monsters.
Oh, Days. You’ve ruined Sonny, and forgotten about the hotness that once existed between Sonny and Paul (although Paul could have hotness with anyone, even Caroline). And please, isn’t Paul a wealthy ex-baseball player? Shouldn’t he have the most outlandish real estate in Salem? This show. It has always been the Dollar Store of soaps, but this is pathetic.
I agree about Sonny. He’s totally unrecognisable. And that sleazy slicked back hair is horrible. Days seems to think that they can just totally change characters’ personalities on a whim to suit the plot. What a joke. I can’t even stand to watch this garbage, I stopped watching months ago. What a shame, Paul and Sonny would have potential if the writing wasn’t total shit.
What a man-child Scott is! He could Ste a run for his money. All of his stories are about him messing up other people’s lives because he wants something or is mad.
