3/24/10 review - The Schmuck and the Governor

Did DAYS get a new hair/makeup/wardrobe department? Ali, Ari and Crystal looked especially good today.

Rafe/Sami/EJ and the Gov – OK. Maybe I want a little too much reality in my soaps, but even in a small town, can any old schmuck from the FBI just go to the Governor’s hotel room and strong arm him into doing what he wants? Don’t governors usually have security people around? Then EJ was able to go and do the same thing. Stupid.

I’m torn about Stuart Damon. Most of the time, I enjoy him when he’s on the screen; and hey, a good soap actor’s a good soap actor. But I threw up in my mouth a little when Anna and the Gov talked in yesterday’s eppy about playing with the handcuffs. Tony and Anna were freakin’ soulmates and we didn’t even get a wedding; yet now, we have to imagine Anna and the Gov playing bondage games? WTF! No, I’m so annoyed I’ll say it the right way. WHAT…THE…FUCK?!

EJ tells Sami that she should look at life more positively. She could have a hot Brit in her bed now instead of Robo-Cop. Speaking of SuperRafe, he showed up to inform Sami and EJ that the Governor had pardoned Nicole. Freakout Time.

Nicole/Anna – The Blondes from the Big House are “snakes on the plane.” Anna relished her freedom, not knowing that the combination of Victor, Rafe, EJ and the Governor led to them all actually getting…a clue! Nicole dreams of being reunited with Brady.

Brady/Arianna – The couple flash their spraytanned cut bodies and plan to elope.

Carly/Bo/Victor/Vivian – Vivian made more monotonous threats at Carly, apparently attempting to bore her so badly that she’s ready to crawl back into the coffin and be buried alive again. Bo told Victor that he would kill Vivian if Victor didn’t stop her. Oh, come on! Really? Carly must really be the owner of the brainwashing hoo-hah if Bo’s going to become a murderer over her! Victor offered Vivian marriage if she’d give up her revenge. Vivian’s in a love triangle between Marriage to Victor and Revenge on Carly. Carly didn’t actually do much of anything.

Stephanie/Nathan/Melanie – Melanie tells Nathan the letter meant nothing; because God forbid that the DAYS Brass doesn’t continue in their mission to bore us with this brain-numbing quad for the rest of all eternity.
