Agreed, but that seems to be how most of the exits have been lately (& from what I've read, Theresa's may just be more of the same). Belle got somewhat of an exit by being given a job in China & then having a few episodes to talk to Claire & Shawn about it, but Shawn just up & decided he was going too and left.
I'm just glad that Aiden doesn't die & that it appears as though his exit is hinting at him going off to redeem himself.

If Aiden ultimately has nothing to do with Hope's secret being revealed, then the whole "Aiden learns the truth" bit will have been a complete waste of time. With Rope essentially instantly reuniting as soon as Aiden's gone, we're not even gonna get them talking about how Rafe didn't trust Hope enough to even give her a day to try to figure out a way to get out of the situation or how Rafe, even though he knew why Hope was doing what she was doing, wasn't "allowing" her to do it & wouldn't accept that this was something (temporary) that needed to be done. We're just supposed to go back to pretending like Rope have some long-standing fairytale romance and that Rafe doesn't act like an ass towards Hope or that the things Hope told Rafe in her "fake break-up" don't have an actual basis in reality.

So it looks like now JJ cheated on Gabi with someone in Florida..........another cheater on our hands :hmmph:
Where did you hear that? Is this speculation or fact?
One person said the description here, that he says 'sorry to Gabi' in his dreams, which leads to think, he could have cheated...it sure was not about Abby's whereabouts, like one to some said.

Aiden is anti-climatic but at least he's alive and well and hopefully some time in the future once Rafe is gone they can bring him back. A break from the canvas so he can be redeemed and return is desperately needed.

I know I'm in the vast minority but I'd love to see Shane come back and get friendly with Kayla. I loved them together and their friendship/past causing problems for Steve and Kim would be great. It could also involve other people and their opinions about them and their relationships.

So is Andre going to be Tony or half Tony or what?

And does anyone have a clue how they're writing Drake out for the next few months?

The Aiden end story is very calm. I thought we are going to see 3 more months of him dangling Hope around. On the other hand, I am glad that Aiden realize on his own, what he is doing, is out of character!

I didn't expect much but every storyline sounds totally anticlimatic - three villains, Aiden, Theresa . :shame:

I'm realy worried about their Sweeps ratings.

Me too, sweeps is off to a really boring start, imo. They should have had the prison escape storyline either start later or last a bit longer. Now that it's over I'm back to not really caring about the show.

Yeah, but for me as a fan of the character at least I'm getting something. I stopped watching Haiden scenes because I couldn't stand seeing him be so pathetic, but if there's at least a partial redemption where he realizes he's behaving badly I can not hate the writing quite so much. Also I hope they bring him back later and decimate Rope. I don't have to have that happen to be happy, but it would be something I'd enjoy. At least he isn't going out all evil. That was never who the character was initially.

Love the Julie/Doug Halloween picture. They are cute. :)

Dopes on the Rope (hope and Rafe) just ruin the show. They both suck as a couple and individually.

Other than the Victor/family stuff and Steve/Kayla stuff, everything and everybody else simply suck in so many levels.

When I think I can enjoy the show, these idiot writers just come in with their idiotic crap and ruin it all.

I can just see it now. J.J is in a coma and Gabi being upset because he is not around to adore her and console her because of Julie's hatred of her..will seduce Chad. And sorry but that will put him on my shit list for good.

I'm not opposed to Julie hating Gabi. This show has a tendency to make everyone just say they're fine with everything so it's a good change. But here's the problem. We saw Julie say it it JJ once. And I don't think to Gabi at all since Gabi and JJ started dating. So for Gabi to be whining Julie hates her it's hollow. Plus I feel like all Gabi does is whine anyway.

I don't mind seeing Chad with Gabi and Ari, it's cute. The problem is that we see more Chad with Gabi than JJ with Gabi and more Chad with Ari than Sonny with Ari so it feels like Chad is stealing JJ's girlfriend and Sonny's daughter.

I think it's ridiculous they're in coordinated costumes. Also I get being annoyed Chad is with Ari and Gabi with Thomas. I used to get so upset to see Kristen with Brady and belle in the 90's. But at least John and Kristen were in a relationship, Gabi has a boyfriend. It isn't Chad.

I'm not sure how I feel about Aiden's exit. I'm glad he's leaving. I don't think the character should have ever been brought back in the first place. The exit seems lame though. Like H&Q just changed their minds all of a sudden. For weeks now, Aiden's been taunting Hope and Rafe about the secret. And within a few episodes, he just changes his mind and leaves town? That seems off.

I'm continuing to roll my eyes at the writing for Andre. With Anna coming back, I'm really hoping the speculation that Andre is Tony is correct. I just don't believe Andre would ever do the things he's been doing lately. Even for his own gain. He's a psychopath!

I'm looking forward to the truth about Hope killing Stefano coming out. I know people are sick of Hope, but I'd rather see focus on her with secret revealed than focus on her keeping the secret hidden. I still don't think Stefano is dead, and they'll figure out a way to explain how he faked his death again. Something has to get Hope off this charge.

I'm also looking forward to Rafe and Chad scenes. I hope H&Q focus back in on that friendship that was developing last year. I loved them together.

More Kate and Eduardo is always a good thing to me.

Victor retiring is intriguing. I would really like this story if it was being told at a different time. Deimos is going to end up running Titan and that is just stupid.

I wonder if the secret Deimos asks Victor to keep is that Xander is in Greece working for him. I'm not sure Xander would tell Victor that though, given how Victor feels about Xander. I'm not sure what else it could be though. Maybe that he's planning to propose to Nicole. Wouldn't shock me.

Dario and Eduardo going into business together sounds cool. I just hope I like the business they're going to start. Please don't be stupid.

And I love that the show is celebrating Halloween this year. I think the show really missed a great opportunity last year with not playing up Halloween during the serial killer storyline. It would've been perfect. From what I remember from 2003, Higley liked celebrating holidays. She did St. Patrick's Day. She even brought back the St. Luke's carnival. It seems she likes tradition. I hope we get a good Thanksgiving celebration this year. Christmas is a given. New Year's too!

I'm looking forward to Ciara and Victor's scenes. Have they ever been in a scene together?

The camp out being right outside the town square is lame as hell. Surely they could've pulled out the park/wooded area set for those scenes.

I'm really looking forward to Valerie's return. I like how the article says big elements from the past play out and involve many people. I hope that's not just Valerie's minor history with Abe from the 80s. I need Julie involved in Valerie's return. Maybe Valerie's presence in Salem reminds Julie that she has a son out there somewhere.

It would be a dream come true. I say kill Deimos, and then bring back VI as David Banning. The role he should've been cast in. I swear, I won't roll my eyes once at the fact that the same character is portraying two different characters so close together.

It is rediculous they have this family picture...they are trying WAY too hard on this. It's too much family "bonding" out of nowhere and it doesn't make sense. Chad suddenly the stand in "daddy" to Ari when she already has Sonny and JJ and Chad being the only person Gabi ever talks with because of mean, cruel Julie? Nope. It rings hollow. The whole thing is a plot point and is a shallow shell of a story. It's too rushed and there is no energy or charisma to it.

The thing is that they could have actually pulled this off, they certainly had the time with Abby gone but the reality is that they didn't and I feel nothing for them but annoyance. Gabi is just whiney and Chad is latching on to anybody he can talk to. It comes off as pathetic. :shame:

With Abby literally on the doorstep finally, it's too late because nothing matters except that Abby is here. :cheers:
