Jason!! So glad you're ok! Hope the car is as well. I spun out in upstate NY about 15 years ago but managed to do a full 360 spin and thank goodness because there was a tractor trailer behind me. I ended up on the left shoulder and just kept going. Anyway so glad you're ok.
I've been saying this for weeks. I think the pacing is just as big a problem as the writing at this point. So it seems Prague is the dominant story this week. So does that we mean we won't see anyone else until next week? And I'm sorry but Eric Brady popping up halfway through the episode? Just no.
The show also needs to learn what a proper cliffhanger is. Today should have ended with Marlena gasping. That Hope/Raines scene was so poorly directed and frankly I didn't care about Hope's fate. Plus if Shawn wasn't going to interrupt Raines, I already lost interest.
I like the idea of Raines not liking the Bradys. But I need background and context which probably won't happen.
Sonny is the one character that is connected to both Prague and Orwell. Would it have killed him to tell Steve and Rafe respectively that Chad and Gabi were kidnapped by Deimos? I'm sure the show will say he doesn't know yet but this is a missed opportunity to tie 2 stories together and also to start moving some of the Prague players forward. We know what Steve and Kayla are doing next. Why not start moving Rafe, Sonny, Paul, maybe even Steve, etc into the Orwell story too?
No Deimos, Holly is not "our baby". She is Nicole's baby. GET THIS GUY OFF MY SCREEN. And I'm sorry but I have no words for Nicole now either. She has had ample opportunity to leave Deimos yet continues to put him ahead of Holly. After everything that happened with Sydney and Daniel Rafael, no way would Nicole do that.
I was pleasantly surprised to see a redressed St Luke's set for the ball. Plus all the extras. But where were Carrie, Austin and Anna? I hope Steve and Kayla are as blessed at their upcoming wedding.
On a macro level, nothing clicks on this show anymore. We have 5 days of Jennifer last week, and nary a word this week. The pacing is awful. If we're lucky, we'll know why Marlena was gasping tomorrow.
