rabid1stBeing a DOOL fan means never being sure if you are going to watch it the next day. Every episode it seems like they hit the bottom of the "crap-ass storyline meets cartoon character" barrell...and then...somehow...they dig a little deeper.
So, Jennifer...is on a ledge that is crumbling away. And if you tuned in...I don't know...let's say two weeks ago...you might be thinking it's the SAME ledge Jennifer was on back then...that ledge, if you remember, was also crumbling away...amd Jennifer was clinging to Jack. But if you think she's on the same ledge...you would be wrong. No...if it was the SAME ledge...you would be watching The Young and the Restless.
This is DOOL and it's a totally different ledge...and a totally different man that Jennifer is now clinging to.
Meanwhile...Hope has, once again, passed out...people have gathered around her and are chatting away about how dire her condition is...but, and this is a crucial point...they are making no effort whatsoever to help her. This despite the fact that we have a doctor, a former EMT and the chief of police in the room.
If you tuned in a week or so ago...you might find this situation terribly familiar, too. Last week if you remember Hope had passed out after hitting an electrified barrier of some kind. As she sprawled on the grass, breathing shallowly...two decorated policemen (one a former EMT) were so afraid of her enormous breasts and pouty lips they were unable to perform CPR.
Fake Roman: Blow in her mouth.
Abe: I'm not touching her mouth...you blow into it.
Fake Roman: I'm not putting my lips anywhere near.... Look, she's breathing...right? Maybe all we need to do is massage her...
Abe: Oh, no! No, no, no! I can't touch those things. I'm a married man.
Fake Roman: Uhm...so now what? We crouch over her and look concerned?
Abe: I might be willing to wave some grass under her nose. I used to be an EMT...so I'm qualified to do that much.
Back home in Salem. Sami, just like last week...the week before...and every other week for the past ten years, was all over the board. She hates John and wants him dead...she didn't want her mother buried...was sure she was alive...and now wants her to rest in peace...look she's bonding with John...she's teasing Lucas...she's not going to marry him...oh, wait she is...oh, no...it's all a ploy to make Kate have a heart attack...now it isn't...Can Lucas stop over reacting? Believe her? Forgive her? Make it all work out?
Oh, THANK YOU LORD...they are stripping...Lucas naked, Sami shutting the Hell up...this is heaven.
And speaking of things to be thankful for: there is a NEW, new Belle. Not to be confused with the OLD new Belle who had the dubious distinction of making the OLD old Belle look like some kind of...actress. The NEW new Belle is too new for me to make any assumptions about her acting ability...but one point in her favor...you can see her if she stands sideways. I mean, who the hell thought the OLD new Belle looked like Sami's sister? She also seems to have a bit of chemistry with Phillip...who I like loads more than Shaun.
I know Shaun and Belle must have fans...but I just don't see the attraction. Belle is a wussy fawn and Shaun is a bellowing fool. Bo, really wasn't like that in his super-couple days (Hopefully, SoapNet will show some Days worth watching). What can I say to express the lack of appeal of Shaun Douglas...even being held captive by a psycho isn't making him more watchable. What will it take? Maybe if he was pregnant and stuck on a crumbling ledge in the middle of a tropical jungle...
...now that's good television!
