GatesBear-I think your correct about Madison dying.Her last day is Aug 15 as is Jack's,so maybe Jack will also die.Ian leaves the following week,so I'm wondering if they find the evidence against him.

Anyway,with the ratings down they need to do something.I hear T is coming back.He was the one who gave Sonny grief when he first came back to town.Supposedly Sonny and Will's story picks up in Sept.And then,Eileen D comes on in Oct.

I'm assuming Madison does, Jack goes into a coma(they wouldn't kill him off again would they?), maybe inure Melanie(so she goes for treatment in europe with Carly, Bo(Peter R IS leaving) and hopefully Gabi( I hate her!)

I'm happy we'll get to see more Sonny. However, I am not looking forward to a continuation/renewal of a gaybashing storyline with T. If Will and Sonny were in high school, then a bullying story would be relevant. They are two red-blooded young adult males; but, probably because the writers lack creativity or fear a backlash, they refuse to let Will and Sonny have an onscreen sex life together or separately and insist on going for stereotypical storytelling.

I doubt the ratings will improve before October unless some radical changes are made immediately. That explosion could be a start.

As much as I like Matthew Ashford and the character of Jack, he really hasn't done much whenever he does return. Of course, it doesn't help that the writers don't seem to know what to do with him. So, instead of him coming up with a an excuse to leave Jennifer, I would rather the character permanently die. I can't see of any other way for him to leave that would make sense. Plus, every spoiler I read seems to hint something bad will happen to Jack and Jennifer.

Madison and Ian, I always fast-forward thru their scenes, yawn. BYE!

Couldn't they have the explosion blast the show back to the early 90's?

Just saw a promo and it looks fracktastic!

Except for the Jack part.
