Kristen at least the show was straight out aware of the stupidity of Brady hitching up with Kristen not trying to whitewash it as a redeemed love match. |

Ugh Kate and Deimos? This is not necessary. Of course we have to resume the Thrady crap. Hold off on the actual married couple celebrating their wedding and resume the boring Thrady proposal. And of course Summer is still interrupting. At least we get Steve, Marlena and company trying to locate John. Only thing I want to see (since we don't get Chabby). |

Three spoiler photos for Wednesday, March 16: (1) Two thugs walking a drugged Paul into Yo Ling's lair. Paul's head is covered with a black bag. (2) An unconscious or sedated Paul is sitting on the floor handcuffed to a vertical pipe. Two thugs are standing next to Paul. The thugs are talking to or staring at someone accross the room (the someone is not in the photo). (3) Paul and John are across the room from one another, each handcuffed/chained to a different vertical pipe. Paul is still seated on the floor, either unconsicous or sedated. John is alert and kneeling, and trying to break his chains, while at the same time he's staring at Paul. |

Definitely Kristen. Manipulative bitch she may be but they had lights out chemistry and the story itself was fantastic, though I hated what they had John do. Still there's no comparing ED and JL. Maybe because that story was first I can forgive his stupidity about her but after everything she did to him, he follows it up with Theresa and her actions, especially towards his dad, and I just can't with him. It's a repeat of the same story, except they're trying to whitewash Jeanie and say she's redeemed. It's ridiculous. Not to mention insulting to viewers and makes Brady appear even more dumb which should not be possible considering Kristen's history. |

Yeah, Theresa whacked John in the head, but Brady was violent with John as well. Both were wrong. |

Seriously - they didn't write Bristen as a train wreck on purpose... I'm perplexed and scared for the future. In my mind Bristen was written as an entertaining fiasco waiting to explode. There was never any intention that they would live HEA. Edited by concerned, Mar 16 2016, 01:48 AM.

It was just so poorly written, IMO, that it's hard to tell. But I do think at several points it was being written like it was supposed to be something more. While this doesn't mean much, the show's social media accounts certainly treated it that way. |

I don't mind Kristen from the standpoint of her being a fantastic villain/foil. Eileen has/had fantastic adversarial chemistry with Deidre and Drake. She and Eric had great chemistry as well. The only thing I hated about that story was John being written so out of character to the point that he became unlikable to me which is hard to do because I have always loved John. I don't think this story had to end with the almost total destruction of John and Marlena's relationship. If Eileen ever comes back as Kristen, I hope John is played more in character and John and Marlena's relationship isn't sacrificed again.

I loathe Kritter, but her history & backstory are there & we saw it all play out. She's an unapologetic BEYOTCH and ED embraces it without fanwanking that Kritter is secretly some kind of good-girl that we should love for whatever BS reason. :glare: :glare: You've all seen my Theresa rants - you know how I feel and that will never - EVER change. Has it rubbed off into the real world? To a certain extent it has in that I have zero respect for JL fanwanking that we should love Theresa & that Thrady is some kind of star-crossed lover storyline :x F off, toots - you may be super sweet IRL, but if the news comes down the pike that you're gone, I'd love to be the one to get the headline on DR. What sucks, is that with Kritter, Brady was an ass. But EM was clearly having fun portraying him & IMO, he learned a lot from ED to the degree that he earned an Emmy for his work. What sucks more, is that the Thrady pairing has turned that Emmy worthy performance-level into a joke. IMO, EM says his lines, smiles when necessary, turns whenever, hit's his mark...but there's no OOMPH! to Brady right now & hasn't been in a long time. What sucks more is that Brady has been obliterated by the pairing. JL drags him down and Theresa makes him absolutely disgusting to me. The writing is to blame to a point, but right now, Brady Kiriakis is trash. The fact that he seems to give zero F's about his mom & dad and what they're going through at any point (let alone that no one told him John was kidnapped for whatever reason - and I won't buy that it's because he has Dr. Douche's heart, cause he flew to CA & can handle fucking that Creature so he's pretty much fine) has soured me to him completely & I'm at the point where I just want Brady & Theresa to get married & leave the damn canvas. There are plenty of characters I'd rather watch than two hot-messes who are playing house with a kid born out of Daddy thinking he was fucking his last girl, than the drugwhore who snowed him into a "relationship". /endrant As far as todays show, I'll watch for John, Marlena, Bubble-Free Hope and Steve and hopefully Kayla....not much more really appeals to me. |

At least Bristen had tons of chemistry, and the actors played well of each other. Their dynamic was entertaining to watch. And the show never tried to sell Kristen as some kind of a suddenly redeemed saint. I'm afraid John and Marlena will be totally ok with Brady finding yet another "soulmate" in Theresa even though she almost killed his father, blamed it on him and never paid for it.

I agree with everything you've said, except that Brady and Theresa should marry and leave the canvas. I can't with this couple (even off-screen). They should implode onscreen and both find new love interests they have chemistry with. He should move on to someone who doesn't need to be parented by him. She should find someone she wouldn't need to treat like her uncle. Edited by thepadange, Mar 16 2016, 08:07 AM.

Definitely not a HEA, but they never write a HEA unless two performers are leaving the show. I sometimes think the writers have no idea what they want with a couple, they just write something for 6 months (or whatever arcs they write) and that is it. They don't care about the future which is unsure anyway - performers may leave and writers may be let go. Re: Bristen. With Kristen raping Eric storyline, they kind of made the future of Bristen impossible (but you can never know it with a soap ;) ). It seemed they intended to write a WTD storyline with Brady and Eric, so who knows what we would have seen in 2014, if Eileen hadn't decided to leave in 2013.

As much as I have a love-hate relationship with the Bristen pairing, I don't think Theresa measures up even to Kristen's dead toenail. John should have thrown Theresa to jail for whacking his skull. A missed opportunity. |

I am excited for the John & rescue team story and the Brady/Theresa story today. The rest can go away. |
