Weekly Soap Critiques – April 2-6, 2018
This week will focus on the best performers for the week.
General Hospital
Roger Howarth: Howarth’s performance as Franco was riveting in the volatile story as he looks to find out about the secrets from his past involving Drew Cain (Billy Miller) and Jim Harvey (Greg Evigan) with the help of Dr. Kevin Collins (Jon Lindstrom). Never have I seen such a raw performance in Howarth since his One Life to Live days when he played Todd Manning and he was the ring leader in the rape of Marty Saybrooke (Susan Haskell). Howarth certainly gives it is all in any scene.
Days of Our Lives
Stephen Nichols: Nichols’ portrayal was a tear-jerker as Steve lost his eyesight in his one eye with Kayla (Mary Beth Evans) by his side as it happened. Steve and Kayla’s love shows now bounds as Kayla helped him put the dark glasses over his eyes. Even heartbreaking was Steve walking out with a cane as John (Drake Hogestyn) struggled with his guilt over poisoning Steve that left Steve blind.
The Young & the Restless
Thad Luckinbill & Amelia Heinle: Luckinbill and Heinle gave it their all as they dealt with domestic violence in their relationship as J.T. scrambles to keep his secret of what he did to Victor (Eric Braden) and work on his issues with Victoria.
The Bold & the Beautiful
Scott Clifton: Clifton was beyond excellent as Liam dealt with his conflicting memories that showed he shot his father, $Bill Spencer in the back. Liam has been conflicted since the truth about his father’s affair with his wife, Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) came out when Liam found the paternity results in Steffy’s handbag.
