Additional Comments: I don't get one bit of Jared's storyline. And the writing and directing on Fri were terrible. Is this all about Mitch? Huh? And Corinne hooked up with Brody's sister? She looks old enough to be his mother. This doesn't look like it;s going to be artfully done. Too bad. I do think it's funny they dug up Nash. he's over on ATWT and is gay now.

Message: Digging up Nash was just too stupid- how could anyone not notice? Although I thought Monday's reveal of Nash was well done- it reminded me of Psycho. (Complete with the wig!)

Message: I still want someone to tell me why One Life to Live is suddenly taking place in four locations, which screws up the time frames more than ever? Did they have to try to deal with all these storylines at once by sending the characters all over the map? Next thing you know Vicki will be back in Paris (Texas, that is)! Anybody have any idea of what day or night all this is supposed to be taking place any more? I guess if the writers don't care then why should we, except that I have this thing about time and place in good storytelling. I think they still make a difference to my understanding and overall enjoyment of the plot.
Anyway, I don't get the Jared storyline either and I don't understand why Rex left Jessica and Natalie alone in Napa knowing that John was several states away which would leave them hours from any rescue if something suddenly went wrong, when he had every reason to suspect it might, given that he had no idea where Jared was at that moment, what he was mixed up in, and what he or others he might be involved with might be capable of doing to two unarmed women alone at a deserted vineyard? Why not at least insist on them informing the local authorities, who might stand a slight better chance of getting to the women before John could schedule yet another cross country flight?
And then there's that little detail of how Daniella is going to sneak wheelchair bound Matthew out of school and on to an airplane bound for Seattle when the school is by now on a virtual lock down looking for her. Never mind. I'm still trying to figure out how a child conceived on an island seven years ago suddenly turned into a hell raising fifteen year old! They may as well put the entire cast on Brigadoon!

Message: This show is a MESS! Can we please find out who won the election? And what's with Gigi's hair? It gets more airtime than the stories we care about. Fire Valentini!
