Weekly Soap Critiques – November 20-24, 2017

Days of Our Lives

I have only good things to say about this last week in the portrayal of JJ Devereaux played by Casey Moss.  His guilt in the shooting of Theo Carver (Kyle Pettis) was heartfelt and emotional as JJ dealt with aftermath of shooting Theo and Theo now in a coma.  

In another is the reunion of Will Horton as Chandler Massey made his comeback.  This was another emotional reunion with Marlena (Diedre Hall), Sami (Alison Sweeney) Chad and Abigail (Billy Flynn and Marci Miller) and Gabi (Camila Banus) and Will’s daughter, Arianna Grace.  This week made you reach for the hankies!  A tearfelt week!

General Hospital

The two Jasons (Steve Burton and Billy Miller), now knowing they are twin brothers, struggle in their identities as each brother wonders who is who—Jason or Andrew. 

And Nora Buchanan makes a public announcement to inform PC that Julian was forced to do his sister, Olivia Jerome’s will, or have his family harmed if he refused her wishes.  Will Julian be released from Pentonville?

After Liam confesses his indiscretion to Steffy that he and Sally kissed in the Spectra demolition, a distraught Steffy runs off to the Forrester guest house, where she is comforted by $Bill; after realizing the mess she has got herself into after her night with $Bill, Steffy runs back to Liam, where the couple solidify their marriage with a recommitment ceremony, unaware that $Bill plans to whisk Steffy away from LA.

And the Forresters, Logans, Spencers, Avants and Spectras spend Thanksgiving in traditional fashion as they reveal how grateful they are.

The Young and the Restless

The Abbott holiday festivities are overshadowed by the news that Dina has Alzheimer’s; and Nick and Nikki crash Victor’s Thanksgiving dinner at the Newman Ranch.
