How about a split screen with the women on one side and the men on the other? The women could be at Belle's place and the men some where else. The gals could say something like "Why are men so dense?" The men could say something like "Why can't women understand us?" |

Well, there's that, too. Shawn and Ciara should be interacting. They're brother and sister. She just got raped. He doesn't even KNOW. Brady had a heart transplant, and Marlena had no scenes with him. That's dumb. He's always with Maggie. He has 20 scenes with her compared to one with Marlena and/or John. Steve's had ONE scene with Adrienne. They moved Caroline into the Kiriakis place, and she never has scenes with Kayla or Eric or Ciara or Joey. So I see potential sometimes, but then nothing comes of it. I was pretty happy with the way things were going a few short months ago, but now I just wait and see...with a lot more waiting than seeing. I don't dislike all of it. Some things I like. But I also see potential wasted. |

Oh the Kiriakas' conversion for Caroline. That's on my list too. She hasn't even seen Eric since Bo's funeral I think. And he's going to jail for killing a man. I'm pretty sure John nor Marlena has seen Brady since the transplant. Also still don't understand why Hope, S&K missed the wedding |

For me what makes an umbrella story is a little more... it's that the stories have ramifications for them, too. So Marlena giving the teens therapy doesn't make it an umbrella story... Something like, Marlena put into a position to keep important information from Hope about Ciara, that ends up impacting Marlena. I have mixed feelings about BlackPatch. I just can't get excited about it for its own sake, and I'm not loving the show's version of action right now. But it would be better for the guys to have something like a real career, than not. I really would like to see these kinds of things passed on to the younger heroes at some point, for a lot of reasons. |

Reading what you said about Marlena having information about Ciara and keeping it from Hope reminded me of the nine hundred times Marlena said she couldn't break doctor patient confidentially during the Gina story in late 99 through the millennium wedding.

I know. I like the idea of Black Patch, but not just because it'll exist. More because of potential story it can provide for John, Marlena, Kayla, Steve, and maybe Hope, who's kicked off the force. |

I do not in any way want Rafe in BlackPatch. They don't need him. That could ruin the whole thing lol |

I've really liked the incredibly brief scenes we've gotten with Steve/Marlena. When BlackPatch happens, I hope it leads to more of that. |

I just think there are all kinds of little problems. Shawn/Ciara never talking. Marlena and Brady almost nonexistent in favor of Maggie. Steve/Adrienne. Caroline not interacting with her own family. |

This regime is really bad with family. That's the one thing I'm hopeful for in the fall. The problem for me before with Dena is that the families she had onscreen weren't families I was interested with. But she actually isn't too bad about family stuff. Her stories are terrible, but she gets in family moments. I also think Ryan Quan might be good at that considering how he wrote Marlena in the coming out story. |

On the opposite side of that, I'd love to see John and Kayla. Steve was a nice contrast to Rafe kind of dismissing Marlena too. And he was really sincere about bringing John back to her. Edited by Lovejm, Mar 18 2016, 10:26 PM.

Agreed. I thought we were going to have it recently, but then no. |

Or how about Caroline's visions? Bo. Victor. That's it. Does she see her grandson Eric in trouble? Nope. Did she see her daughter Kayla get attacked and be held hostage without food or water? Uh uh. Did she see her granddaughter Ciara get raped or her grandson Joey kill Ava? Nope. So, that's not too satisfying at all. |

Speaking about the lack of family interactions, what's up with Hope and Jennifer? I feel like Jennifer has been there for Hope (coming over as soon as she heard about Aiden, making them food, and now giving them a place to live), but Hope has been completely oblivious to Jennifer's pill problem nor did she offer to help her out with the wedding. Did she have a reaction to Jennifer being in that accident? I don't remember. The one-sidedness bothers me. |

The most ridiculous part to me -- as you mention -- is that Hope is staying with Jen. How can she not notice something is off?! |

I would love some John and Kayla scenes too. They're so rare. But I never forget that for years they thought they were brother and sister. |
