Like that Bonnie Tyler 80’s song of yore, the young women of Salem seem to be holding out for a hero, a big strong man to come along and give them guidance and purpose in their lives. The concept of the hero has of course dominated soaps since the beginning and it’s a staple that [...]

So thus far I’ve refrained from dipping a toe into the whole Marlena/John storyline. To be frank, I haven’t wanted to deal with that rabid fanbase, but after this week, I just finally had to say something about that woman.
