Will & Sonny's Lovely Romance (Read 240 times)

[Deleted]

Is this couple too picture perfect for your liking? Do you think that the honeymoon period needs to end? Does it seem unrealistic that such a young couple would have more success in love and dealing with their problems than Salem's older crowd?

Sonny has been a saint about accepting Will's past, his problems and becoming a parent. He has dealt with Will's jealousy, insecurities and crazy family. They have both kept secrets, which have resulted in forgiveness in seemingly record time. After such a tumultuous year, they still seem to be going strong.

Are you pleased with this couple's happy place or do you want to see some trouble in paradise? More gay characters to provide the opportunity for an affair? Sonny taking a walk on the Kiriakis dark side? Parenting differences?

I don't find them compelling and don't like the way they are being written. It isn't enough to just be a gay couple. They need to have personalities. We've watched Will grow up mostly on canvas and I'd like to feel more of a connection to him. Right now, the actor is the detractor for me. As for Sonny, he needs to be more than just a sidekick for Will. I find them to be a lackluster couple, despite all the travails of the past year.

I agree that they are boring. The Gabi incident was kind of interesting but now here they are - just the two of them and Ari. I think at first the show didn't want to create too many problems for them because they were the first gay couple on the show and that was interesting enough. It was pretty much the only wedding in recent history to go off without a hitch.

Now we're past all of that and they do need some obstacles to spice things up. I don't neccesarily think it needs to be a triangle, even though that seems to be all this show can do lately. Sonny's cover up could create a bit of tension but I also think just being a young couple, dealing with an infant, school and a business could create some issues.

I don't find the characters to be interesting. Gabi and Nick gave them drama to deal with. Either give them an interesting story or stick them on the back burner.
