My 2 Cents

Ok. Who else is sick to death of the Mike and
Katie sescapades? Even Matie fans seem to be getting bored with their
storyline revolving around the bedroom. When was the last time that
Mike had something to do, other than construction and rushing home to
his wife to do the deed. Oh, that’s right. Sometimes they don’t even
bother to go home. They just do it wherever they are (like they did at
Mike’s job). This is getting ridiculous. These two actors are too
talented to not be given a storyline with more depth. They almost had
some real issues to deal with, when Nick was killed by Katie, but even
that didn’t stop these two for more than a week, and they were back to
what they do best (I’m sure you all know what that is). If there is
nothing else for these characters to do, then split them up and give
them a life outside of each other. At least when Mike was with
Jennifer, we saw a different side of him working at Street Jeans. When
he was with Pilar, he raced cars.
Wow. Is it just me, or when the heck did Lucy
become a full fledged Snyder, more so than a Montgomery? Lucy has
always been close to her grandmother Lucinda. But it was obviously a
major plot device for her and Luke to suddenly be in each other’s
orbit. Lucy has been in town for months, and is now a doctor. That is
a big deal! So why then, has she yet to speak to her aunt Katie and her
aunt Margo??? Lucy’s first week back in town, we saw her have separate
dinners with Lily, Lucinda, Luke, and even Holden. She even ran into
her new half brother (baby Johnny) at the hospital. I waited and
waited, but no mention of Katie and Margo. It just doesn’t make since.
Before she left town, she was on good terms with both of her aunts. You
would think that the writers could find some reason for Lucy to interact
with her aunt Katie and with Margo, Casey, and Tom. Even if the only
excuse, is that they are friggen related! No such luck.
Why do the teens in Oakdale insists on walking
through the woods alone when there is a slasher on the loose? I
understand that Maddie was raped and that every time something bad
happens, they find her hovering around somewhere close. I can see why
she would be a suspect. However, my logic fails me when it comes to
understanding why it is that the revelation that Louis raped Maddie
means that he is the slasher. Let me do the math again. Louis + raping
Maddie = Oakdale Slasher! Ok. If you say so. Well, this is my two
cents for now.
