Richard Simms. Friday, January 31st, History, schmistory. Ready to dive in? Is it just me, or is the repetitive dialogue getting worse with each passing week? Later, they tried to sell us on the fact that Bill always suspected Poppy was trouble. Jesus, take the wheel⦠and drive this show toward a continuity editor!
Perhaps that person will also remind the writing team that Steffy and Finn were married in August. More: WTH are they going to do with Bill next?!? More: The history of As the World Turns in photos. More: Star shares audition-day disaster! Instead, we ended with him yet again pondering whether it might be true.
That said, the scenes for next week certainly made it hard to imagine those test results will reveal anything other than his tie to Luna. Poppy, apparently having decided that she needed to tell Luna the truth about her dad likely before Finn figures it out , headed to the prison.
But this again raises the question of just how long Bill plans to have a houseguest. Is she getting bonus points for not killing the gardener? Perhaps the biggest question of all is how the character of Bill rebounds from this. And I need him to, because Don Diamont has created one of the strongest, most fascinating men in all of daytime.
In other news, Steffy set the irresistible-to-any-man-or-woman Daphne on Carter. This twist would also make more sense in a way. Why not let her be drawn to Daphne, too? Are we to assume that Carter and Hope breaking up would send him scurrying back to best friend Ridge, hat in hand?
