Kate...Years ago, when Kate first came to Salem to head up Titan, liked the character. As we learned more about her, the abusive husband, raising Lucas alone, thinking older 2 children dead, she was tough, but sympathetic. The Kate of the last several years is still tough, but definitely not sympathetic. Conniving, trying to manipulate her children's lives, sleeping her way thru the Salem men, especially the crime kings. And then there is attempted murder, determined attempted murder. Kate needs to go back to working at the Hudson St. Diner.
Rafe...Loved this guy from the moment he appeared. He had Sami's number right off the bat, was a great FBI agent, a wonderful cop. He is so good with children, and it sure doesn't hurt that he has such a wonderful smile. Right now, is being wasted as bar manager. The writers have not wanted him on the show, have treated him as they did Jack Deveraux, comas, backburner, filler. He is worth more than Daniel, Eric, & Brady together.
John....another ill used fan favorite, who was actually written completely out of the show, and only brought back because of fan pressure on the suits, but who was treated horribly by the writers. John is a hero, a great father, and is responsible (with marlena) for the invention of the phrase "supercouple". His value to the show is enormous.
Marlena...Nearly all written above for John, applies to this character as well. She is friend and counselor to nearly everyone, has gone thru major heartache, is the mother of favored characters, and yet was also written off, returned at last only to be used as filler. To have both John & Marlena on the show at last, only to never share a scene until last week has been a travesty.
Paul.....A most welcome addition to Salem. I do like, that with Paul being such a good ball player, he was attached to John, who loved and still loves baseball so much. (Inherited gene??, lol) He did well with the Will affair, and dealing with Sonny being an ex-lover, etc. I like that he is bonding with his family......Brady, John, Marlena, Tate, etc.
