So, whatdya think of Jenna and Dean?  Cute couple, or let's slap some
sense into them....Felicia's drinking?  Interesting commentary, or
let's restore some previous class...Racheal's vendetta against Jake?
Justified or do you hope Jake gives it to her good...Lorna?  Will she
be infected with the "bring her in like she's tough but then reduce
her to a wimpering, pining mass of jello" desease like they did with
Lilly on Santa Barbara, or will the writers keep her character's
integrity?

And is Jake great or what?

-Rick.

        ************************************************************
    Dean and Jenna:       They use to be a cute couple.  Everything
                          about them now just irritates me.  Jenna
                          has had moments lately of decent acting 
                          and about the only time I can take Dean
                          is in small doses when he's talking to
                          Frankie or Cass.

    Felicia's drinking:   YAWN!  Her character has become so pitiful.
                          She use to be the one who gave out advise
                          and had a great comical side to her.  I
                          guess alcoholism is topical and realistic
                          but I just find it boring.  Felicia should
                          get on with what she use to do best - flirt!

    Rachel's vendetta:    No way is it justified.  Jamie had a vendetta
                          against Jake for a long time.  Jamie felt he
                          had to be Paulina's protector from Jake which
                          wasn't needed.  Jake's retaliation with the
                          video tape was in return for Jamie getting him
                          thrown in jail and punching him out at Dean's
                          concert.  Rachel doesn't seem to feel St. Jamie
                          does anything wrong and doesn't feel Jake does
                          anything right nor does she feel he suffers any 
                          consequences for his actions.  That reasoning
                          is pretty lame coming from a woman who was the
                          Queen troublemaker in her day.  Of anybody she
                          should understand where Jake is coming from.
                          I hope Jake is a smart enough adversary to beat
                          Rachel at her own game. Wouldn't it be a hoot
                          if she would become interested in Jake?  She
                          needs someone like him to put some spring in
                          her step.  She'd be smiling for weeks!

     Lorna & Kevin:       I've become very disenchanted with her lately.
                          The tough, spunky, and sharp-tongued Lorna has
                          been replaced by a much too well-adjusted Lorna.
                          Kevin and Lorna don't do anything for me.  And
                          what's with this attitude Kevin still has for
                          Jake?  This crap that he tried to look out after
                          him for Ray McKinnon is bull!  I never saw it!
                          Kevin has become a clone of Jamie!  
                           
     Jake:                And yes, Jake is GREAT!  He's my favorite!!!
                          Tom Eplin never ceases to add a new dimension
                          to Jake.  You never know what idea he has up
                          his sleeve which is what makes Jake different
                          from everyone else and a lot more interesting.
                          Judi Evans works beautifully with him.  I'd like
                          to see Paulina jealous of other women who flirt
                          with Jake.  Instead of taking him for granted
                          it would be great to see her fight for her man.
