Some guy who was dead for twenty years has come back, but it turns out he's an evil mastermind just wearing a mask (yeah it's dumb, but I don't care), BUT the real guy is actually alive as well and being held hostage by the mastermind dude. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. ****ing epic.

I think each of those plot lines have been used, are being used, or will be used in every daytime soap opera ever. How else can they remain so popular among the unemployed and elderly for so many decades?
Seriously, try any of them for long enough and you'll be hooked by their insanity.

I hope the story arc is going opposite of the first season, from over the top to more focus. Anyway, I like it. It's fun.

Yeah, I've been watching that! Like horror films, it became far less creepy after the reveal, but still good TV. Also, it's great to see you back, dankrsta!
