from daytime royalty daytimeroyaltyonline.com/topic/8603460/1/About.com Poignant Story Turn for Bo and Hope Delving into Alice's secrets has provided more screen time for Days of Our Lives' Bo and Hope. Soon, the Salem supercouple will be getting even more, as they head to counseling.
"Bo and Hope have had some issues over the last couple of years," says Peter Reckell (Bo). "The reason they came up is because they never really resolved the worse thing that can happen in somebody's life: having a child be killed. They're going to start to resolve that."
With help from Dr. Marlena Evans. "Marlena's back, so they're going to do it with her," shares Reckell, noting that the show's tackling Bo and Hope's decision to seek counseling in "a very interesting way. I love how they've written it.
The couple finally resolve to work through the loss of their son, Zack, after Johnny goes missing. Reckell thinks the timing is right, defending the fact that Bo and Hope didn't seek professional help right after Zack's demise.
"You don't want to talk about that stuff right away," contends Reckell. "You want to get as far away from that pain as possible. That's what Bo and Hope tried to do, and it didn't work. It just pushed them apart. Now, they're trying to go back and deal with that pain. It's difficult stuff, but dealing with it is pulling them so much closer together."daysofourlives.about.com/b/2011/11/09/poignant-story-turn-for-days-of-our-lives-bo-and-hope.htm

I think it's a great idea.. but there will still be those who just won't forgive Bo no matter what... I say to get over it.

Thanks karebr. This sounds like it could be a very good story for Bo and Hope.
I think they should use a different therapist though. Marlena is too close to them. I think they should use someone who's more objective. I'll bet it will bring up some pain for Marlena too, since she lost a child as well.

I'm on the fence about this. Every time they try to work through the Zack issue, they break up.

I look forward to seeing them work through their loss together. It's not appropriate in any way to have your former sister in law as your couples counselor. I hope their relationship grows stronger by dealing with the past.

I'm not sure how to feel about this.Despite the fact that having Marlena as their therapist is a bad idea,Zach died how many years ago?Why bring all this up again?They've broken up and gotten back together several times since his death.I dunno...to me it's just been too long.If they had done something within a year I'd say fine,but it's been more than that.They resolved to put the past behind them already,so why bring it back up?
