Salem Spectator's Best and Worst 2014

I'm adding a few more

Best Recast: Will
Worst Recast: Eve--as Jason said, she may as well be a new character altogether
Best Use of a Wrap Dress: Anne
Best Use of a Sleeveless Dress: Jennifer
Best Use of Wacky Outerwear: Nicole
Best One Liners: Victor followed by Anne
Worst Theme Song: Eve
Freakiest Theme Song: Liam
Most Boring: Tie between Jordan and Paige
Least Boring: Victor
Most Pointless Character: Liam (though I really liked the actor and think he should have been Peter Blake)
 
This entire post screams "agenda".


Just my opinion, but the poster participated in the thread topic, albeit with some added "information". They haven't caused a stink (yet). Sometimes I think it is better to let it be rather than to stir the pot. I think most everyone's agenda here is pretty clear, and while some are more overt than others :) the obvious ones are, well, obvious. Let them fuel their own fire! Again, just my opinion, and no vexing intended. :)

:back:

I agree with a lot of stuff already posted here, so I will be brief with the repeats:

Best Actress: Nicole
Best Supporting Actor: Victor
Best Supporting Actress: Anne
Best Kid Actor: Ciara

Best wedding: Will and Sonny
Best story fake: the "first" time Sami found out about EJ and Abby
Best story potential that failed: the aftermath of Kristen drugging Eric, mostly centering around Eric and the growing struggle between Nicole and the Church
Best drama: EJ's death and Sami's grief in the couple of days following (frankly, the cinematography was good during those few days as well!)
Best new coupling: Hope and Aiden
Best reveal: Sami's revenge plan

Worst story: Eve and JJ :sick:
Worst story: Kristen, Theresa, and the embryo caper :(
Worst story: the Jennifer and Daniel yo-yo :rolleyes:
Worst story: Sami leaving Salem to have a movie made about her :rolleyes:
Worst story: EJ and Abby (I know, a lot of you liked them! I just didn't think it made sense for the characters, and while it brought a good revenge story, it just didn't make sense to me in the grand scheme of things.) :eek:
Worst story: John and his perpetual coma and uncharacteristic decisions :angry:

Oh wait - was I supposed to name only one "worst story"? Sorry... LOL! :wink:

    @realSway1 Thank you! I'm lucky to work with such talented people.
 
That's really awesome Sway!! It must be fun to get responses from the actors when you tweet them!

Worst Recast: Kassie DePaiva (Eve)
Worst Return: Melanie
Best Recast & Return: Chad (I was a bit on the fence regarding this character and actor when he first started but I like what Billy Flynn has brought to the role)
Worst Dressed: 3-way tie - Jennifer, Will, Abigail
Sickest Storyline: Tie - Kristen stealing Theresa's embryo and Eve/JJ sex
Set most in need of returning: Tie - Hope's house and Marlena's house (so sick of the sex at the hotel for Hope and Aiden and good grief if Marlena and John eventually reunite are we going to be subjected to hotel sex with them too???)
Most boring character: Tie - Paige & Jordan
Character that needs to take the next bus/taxi/train/plane/flying saucer OUT of Salem: whooo boy, let me count the characters...Eve, Paige, Melanie, Jordan, Clyde, Ben, Serena
Character that needs to take the next bus/taxi/train/plane/flying saucer IN to Salem: well, let's see, I just removed 7 contract people so I'll add 7 contract people: Philip, Shawn, Belle, Chloe, Jack, Chelsea, Lucas (move him up from recurring)

I suppose I'll keep adding to this as I think of more stuff....
