He’s been amazing portraying an absolutely broken hearted Lucas. I expected great performances from Sami and Marlena, but he’s blowing me away. His scenes with Kate were gut wrenching. Wow.
Everything he says and especially how he says it is just so REAL. He makes me cry every time I see him cry.
I thought he was wooden at first but today he was great. Kate as well. The scene with Sami in Will’s apartment is second only to Hope finding out about Zack.
It’s such a waste as Adrienne could almost be his mother. I just do not see any chemistry and have little interest in this pair.
I don’t know whose idea it was to write Sami’s return this way, but so far it’s been brilliant. I realize she was about to go off on Chad yesterday, so her impulse is not in check yet, but I’m hoping if she does return more permanently at some point, she will continue the way she is being written now. Of course, I haven’tseen today yet! LOL!
Kate to drive him away again. As for Lucas’ exclamation to Kate that all they had now were each other, I didn’t buy that line for a minute. Lucas, you have a daughter out in California. Her name is Allie. You do remember that, don’t you? You also have a granddaughter who, for now at least, is staying in Salem with her mom. So to hear Lucas say all he and Kate have are each other just rubbed me the wrong way. Also, it bothered me that both Lucas and Kate went "back to work" the day after their son and grandson were murdered. I mean, c’mon, who does that???? Otherwise, I enjoyed their scene. Lauren Koslow is, IMO, second best crier next to Dee. Bryan, on the other hand, makes good sound effects when Lucas cries, and puts all the huff and puff in his breathing, but I didn’t see a tear in his eyes yesterday. I think I even saw him try to squeeze a few out a couple of times, but nope, not like Monday when he managed some real tears. I think it’s difficult for most actors to cry on cue!
I just hope they don’t continue his OTT, out-of-control reaction any longer. It’s been done just right but if they drag it out it will become unrealistic.
He and Kate “coming together” again I think is very typical. That happens so often when there is a death in the family, or even amongst friends, that people are willing to let by-gones be by-gones. They realize that life is just too tenuous to hold a grudge for too long.
