This SOD cover clearly shows that things are pretty much the same throughout soap land.
Bill Finally Pays for His Crimes: This happens in Salem too, but usually only to the luckless, friendless members of the out-crowd like Hattie, Gus, Vargas, and Dr. Baker.
Franco and Liz Wedding Drama: Another failed wedding? If so, many Salemites who've had the same experience could send these two a card saying: "I feel your pain."
Shocking Death Rocks Port Charles: If this is anything like many "shocking" Salem murders, it's probably no surprise at all. Many murdered Salemites, such as Stefano, Andre, Deimos, and Nick Fallon were practically walking around with targets on their backs.
Chelsea's Past Comes Back to Haunt Her: Salemites rarely escaped their pasts either. In fact, this headline could also apply to Chelsea Brady: Crawford Decker finally decides to take revenge on her for the death of his son, date-rapist college student Ford.
As for John murdering Steve -- no way, no how. The only person who might believe this is Sami who's always ready to think the worst about the man who "ruined" her life.
