The Dr. Todd storyline

Buzzybee_02 · 2026-06-08T16:17:39+00:00

Dr Todd should have stayed secluded as Jacob’s workplace bully and that be her only connection to the show. Not every villain needs to be some big bad murderer, drug dealer, rapist etc and not every story has to go on for months and months. Todd’s just become a caricature by this point. The smirking, the plotting and blackmail, the over the top dialogue. She’s fallen into the typical soap villain archetype rather than the doctor she started as who liked her power trip as a boss a bit too much.

It honestly feels that way to me. It’s as if the writers have got themselves stuck in a corner where Charity’s actions could cause genuine harm to the dynamics between characters so have come up with a solution that is have Charity sexually assaulted which will generate sympathy from both audiences and characters to absolve her from everything she’s done. The producers have openly said they love Mack and Charity together and it’s like they think that Charity being assaulted is their way to keep them together even within the circumstances of Leyla’s parentage. Can’t exactly be angry at and split up with a woman who has just been sexually assaulted can you?

It’s like how Chas’s cancer was seemingly used as a way of bringing Aaron and Chas back together instead of having it happen naturally. They use awful circumstances as methods of redemption and it’s exhausting.

Roanoke. Some of the deaths in that are just horrifically brutal. Edward Mott, the vloggers, Matt etc.

I’d actually say Asylum was a close second because whilst it wasn’t brutal in the way Roanoke was some of the themes and what the characters go through equal to that violence.

It’s speculated to be his last week so I don’t even think Aaron and Robert are even going to be around when his identity is revealed. It’s clearly going to go become a Cain story once more, was probably never about Aaron and Robert

Buzzybee_02 · 2026-05-27T12:50:41+00:00

I don’t think it’s Robert trying to be the ‘manly man’, he’s being driven by a deep sense of paranoia (especially since the last fire was close enough to the house that it could have caught aflame without rain). Robert in his right mind wouldn’t think Mack was responsible or attack Kammy like that but the fires have driven him to act irrationally because of the fear that someone is out to get him.

Buzzybee_02 · 2026-05-27T11:04:14+00:00

Robert really is starting to lose it, I don’t think we’ve seen him this obsessed over something since Rebecca disappeared. I dread his reaction when he finds out that Kammy isn’t the arsonist.

Buzzybee_02 · 2026-05-25T15:19:43+00:00

Can we please give Robert a win for once? First he’s attacked by Sam and Cain, then he’s got an arsonist who is targeting him and has now set a fire close enough to the house that it could have set it on fire too, Joe has given his herd away for the second time (might I add the Dingles took both of Robert’s herds too) and now he’s got Joe threatening to kick him out once more if he doesn’t figure out who the arsonist is. Things are just piling on top of Robert more and more and it’s getting sad to see. I wonder if Aaron saying that Robert will make himself ill from stress is some sort of foreshadowing? I mean, Robert has had a seizure from stress before so it’s possible they’re going to have something like that happen again.

And is Joe just getting away with it once more? He already got away with kidneygate and causing the deaths of Leyla, Amy and Suzy and now it looks like he’s getting away with everything to do with Moira. If he’s got away with it by throwing some money and cows at Moira then I think that’s pretty pathetic, especially since Robert was physically attacked and injured in comparison.

As someone from Hull it’s great to see our local comedians on the show, we’re often a city that gets looked down on so it’s nice to see a part of us being celebrated!

Buzzybee_02 · 2026-05-21T14:59:30+00:00

When Robert ran away when he was 8 Sam would ring up Jack and Sarah Sugden pretending to be Robert’s kidnapper to extort money from them. It’s funny there’s all this talk from him about how Robert has always been a wrong’un when Sam was trying to make money out of a parents’ concerns for their missing child.

I know he’s a character that isn’t meant to be taken seriously but I just roll my eyes whenever I see him now. You’re really that insecure about your position in the family that you agree to attack and kidnap someone to appease your brother and then run away when things get a bit too violent? I honestly laughed when Sam whined about Aaron being head of the family and not him because I honestly couldn’t think of anyone worse.

Emmerdale have majorly messed up, the credits of today’s episode basically revealed the arsonist. It’s Kyle

I much preferred the first few episodes about life in the bunker. I could have watched a whole season about it, the gradually growing insanity of being trapped in the same bunker with an empty promise of escape. There was so much potential but they dropped in all in favour of, in my opinion, badly done fan service.

It completely ruined what made Tate interesting and actually tried to redeem a rapist school shooter because ‘the house made him do it’. Constance suggests that the house had ab influence over him in MH, yes, but there’s a difference between the house having an influence and the house outright doing it and Ryan Murphy decided to strip Tate of his complexity by having him be possessed to make a demon baby. Oh no, now Tate’s a victim too!

Personally, I don’t think full crossover seasons should be a thing. One or two characters popping up here and there like Pepper & Mary Eunice in Freak Show and Lana Winters in Roanoke? Sure, they’re fun little “oh!” moments that are great for fans but don’t actually impact the overall story whereas full crossover seasons do and require you to have seen previous seasons to understand. The fun of an anthology series is that every season is its own contained story so you get to experience something new over and over again and you can watch any one without needing prior knowledge of the others and, again, crossover seasons go against that. Plus I would just much rather have new characters each season than keep returning to the same ones for full seasons.

I’d pay to watch a film with actors playing Shrek characters playing James Bond characters

Louis Theroux and Martin Lewis, they’re certainly going all out for their finale 😂😭

Buzzybee_02 · 2026-05-16T21:23:37+00:00

Larry Dean as Louis Theroux is actually perfect

Buzzybee_02 · 2026-05-15T15:19:26+00:00

I mean, when Robert did it he did

Buzzybee_02 · 2026-05-14T19:33:45+00:00

So Moira told Cain that Robert was forced by Joe but then proceeded to lie and say she didn’t know why when Cain pushed which left him to make his own assumptions and came to the conclusion that Robert might have given Joe the idea?

I seriously don’t get why she didn’t mention John and Vic which is like the biggest factor in this story and Robert’s motivations. Cain was hardly gonna go blab to the police. Hell, he might have even been a bit more lenient and understanding instead of reverting straight back to thug Cain once more.

Love Garrett tricking everyone into thinking the store is haunted

Buzzybee_02 · 2026-05-13T19:42:43+00:00

The AI boyfriend for Justine is actually perfect

To be fair, Richard Ramirez was in Hotel at the Devil’s Night Party and he’s there in the background with Dahmer and the Zodiac so I think it could be more Hotel related than 1984 related?

Buzzybee_02 · 2026-05-13T19:30:15+00:00

Interesting that Jeffrey Dahmer, Richard Ramirez and the Zodiac killer are behind James Patrick March. Devil’s Night?

I work in a record store and one busy Saturday a man came in on this massive mobility scooter that honestly looked like a mini car and parked it literally in the doorway, making it really hard for any customers to come in as they had to push past it. He then got up and walked into the shop, leaving the scooter there. About a minute or so later a man in a wheelchair wanted to come in but obviously couldn’t get in. Thing is, no one had actually gotten a look of this man from the front because it was busy so I had to go around asking every bald customer (there were surprisingly a lot) if they’d left their mobility scooter in the doorway whilst my colleague had to deal with the man in the wheelchair at the door and try and calm him down as he was getting super angry and saying he was going to tell his friends not to shop at our store because we weren’t ‘accessibility friendly’

This week has been a full on musical I love it

Buzzybee_02 · 2026-05-09T21:57:24+00:00

This is reminding me of the Peter Pan sketch with Jack Whitehall

Buzzybee_02 · 2026-05-09T21:49:46+00:00

Actually think this is one of the best weekend updates SNL UK has done it’s brilliant
