Soaps She Knows
Since Leo’s mother *spoiler* is Diana Colville, played this time not by Genie Francis but Judith Chapman, there is talk that John Black (Drake Hogestyn) could be Leo’s father. If this is the case, we’re left wondering just how many kids does John have out there?
As we know, Ciara’s (Victoria Konefal) gone to South Africa to hang with Theo Carver after she and Ben Weston (Robert Scott Wilson) got into it over him helping Claire (Olivia Rose Keegan) to break up Ciara and Tripp (Lucas Adams), and over Ben kidnapping Gabi Hernandez (Camila Banus). But did Ciara make it to South Africa? Something tells us that Ben has every right to be concerned that he hasn’t heard from her…
Jordan Ridgeway’s (Chrishell Hartley) return is coming up quickly, and there’s still credit to the old rumor that she’s bringing a child with her – but whose? We’re also hearing that Jordan’s not the sweet gal she once was when she first meandered into Salem. Something tells us she’s gone a little off her rocker. The very same something that makes us worry for Ciara…
It’s 2019 and everyone and their sister wants to run for mayor. Eve (Kassie DePaiva) wants Jack (Matthew Ashford) to enter the running, and of course Salem’s current Mayor Abe Carver (James Reynolds) wants the seat, but there’s a third runner – and we think it’s D.A. Melinda Trask (Laura Kai Chen). May the best person win!
As we’ve seen on Friday January 18, Rafe’s headed to Italy to help care for Johnny. Rumor has it that he won’t have sex with Sami (Ali Sweeney) but that he’ll return – with a teenaged Johnny. We also hear that when he returns, he’ll see his wife has strayed and his sights will turn to Jordan Ridgeway.
Talk about heating things up, we’re hearing Sarah (Linsey Godfrey) and Eric (Greg Vaughan) will have sex, meanwhile, Rex may say he wants Sarah back but that doesn’t stop him from being interested in getting together with Chloe (Nadia Bjorlin) which means another love triangle could be coming between Rex, Chloe and Brady (Eric Martsolf).
Haley (Thia Megia) gets involved in a love triangle despite her massive secret which JJ (Casey Moss) learns and wants to help with by…marrying the nurse.
We’re also hearing that Gabi and Stefan (Tyler Christopher) will have hate sex and then in a bold move, will get married. We can’t even speculate on why this would happen, though we’ve all seen the passion these two have shown in scenes together so this may not be a stretch.

I agree Kpatch its a lot of triangles And random question but is it really that easy to get citizenship in the states by just marrying someone? It’s not in Canada My husband and I were married and they made life difficult for us and squeezed every penny they could just to get him his landed card (like a green card) we actually threw it back and left when he got it cuz it is still another 3-5 years of paying and stupidity before you get citizenship and we are a legitimate married couple I always imagined it would be the same difficulty in the states but this makes it look so easy Is this just soap stuff where ppl get a PhD in a week? |

Stop the triangle insanity! I agree especially when there's not even a couple to root for in the triangle. |

We're not even given time to get invested in Haley and JJ, and they spring Haley and Tripp on us.

No, it's not that easy here either. My sister's husband is Canadian and Native American. As a Native American he is supposed to have priority immigration status and yet it took years for him to get his green card here in the US after they were married. TV always makes it look so simple, but it is far from it. |

I figured as much
It’s weird cuz here in Ireland I got my landed (same as green card) in five minutes
I renewed it for free didn’t have to pay
This summer I apply for citizen
I’m basica guaranteed it especially since I will have two Irish children
There’s a fee for it but small compared to Canada
We lost thousands
I hate when tv makes it look so easy when it’s not

I think JJ is developing a pattern where he is trying to "save" women in his life, like he did with Theresa. He has a good heart which gets him into trouble sometimes. I think it's because he feels grateful for being rescued from his suicide attempt but sometimes you just have to let people figure out their own problems and help from a distance.

I think it's because he feels grateful for being rescued from his suicide attempt but sometimes you just have to let people figure out their own problems and help from a distance. When he first came to town and expressed an interest in Theresa he didn't try to save her he was her drug dealer and wanted to bang her. He didn't try and save Eve or Paige either. He liked Bev at one point and didn't try and save her either. Same with Lani(I block that out) However after Paige was murdered was when this really started with him. He knew Gabi before but he saved her from being mugged before they became a couple. This story would be salvageable if someone pointed out to JJ that he's trying to deal with his guilt over Paige's death by trying to save someone that reminds him of her in Haley. Then he and Eve get close again... |

We don't need any more of Eve taking advantage of JJ especially not at the same time as she's trying to take advantage of his father. But someone definitely should point out that he is trying to save Haley because he couldn't save Paige. Too bad only Haley is allowed to have therapy on this show.

I know that JJ hasn't always been out to save women, I'm only talking about more recently like when he said the drugs were his in the apartment to help Theresa, and now he wants to save Haley. I think you are right about what you said about Paige canaryfan98. I think all this does have something to do with guilt over her death.

I rather see JJ/Eve part 2 than two formerly suicidal people getting together(although its preferable to JJ/Gabi or JJ/Lani) Granted Eve also tried to kill herself once back when she was a teen but at least it wasn't hanging over their relationship. Plus JJ was a way more interesting character back then than the neutered version you see today. I would never want it to be a long term thing but a cat/mouse game where JJ seduces Eve away from her father so his parents can get back together and ends up on a self destructive path with Eve yet again. |

I find it stupid that Jj wants to marry Hayley to make her a citizen but that’s what Abby did for Dario
Is this a family thing to do?
Same story different family member and Hayley is probably not a scum bag like Dario but her sister (mom what ever she is) certainly come close to scum

Yeah Dario was a scumbag but I still liked him on the show. For some reason I thought he and Abby were a good couple although it was fake. And I agree with you about Trask I haven't found anything great or redeeming about her at all, at least not yet.
