When Maria and Michael first started being a thing, I honestly didn't mind them because I thought they had decent chemistry and had fun banter. Also I knew that Malex would rise again because of their popularity and that insane chemistry. Plus they were Carina's baby, she was gonna make sure they were seen. I knew we were gonna get a triangle because this is the CW and Carina did make mention of it early on. But then with Maria and Michael the writing was just horrid. They had Maria and Michael become something quickly forced together in some sex romp, how she behaved once she found out about Alex, and now that vile threesome. Which was just her manipulating the situation as a test to make sure Michael would choose her. It's just all really tainted and toxic now. And to do that to Alex, especially after he had been emotionally and physically hurt, when he had always come through for them. Yeah that was beyond crossing the line. So yeah now I'm just gonna skip over all that and focus only on the new relationship of Forrest and Alex or Forlex. I know Malex is going to rise again, since they are the biggest pairing and that apparently the most romantic scene that Carina wrote is for them. But honestly I'm really over the drama and I just want to see Alex separate himself and move on with his new fella. I'm waiting on the Green Eyed Michael when he sees Forrest and Alex and Maria will see it Carina and her horrible cliche hack of bad writing will probably make sure there is tons of jealous Michael cause she's gotta have her drama. But I'm not sure how much drama will spill into the whole Maria and Michael thing. I mean it wouldn't be the CW if they weren't cramming a triangle down our throat. So I wonder if they will have Maria sees the jealous Michael over Forlex, but will they have her actually see it and realize that things aren't as rosy as she thought with keeping Michael as hers away from Alex? I do feel for the character in a way, she's being used horribly as an obstacle and villain of sorts. It's like they didn't know what to do with her because the first part of Maria in season one was better than this. But this lady is just horrible and I just think that's another one of Carina's wasted potential that she's just threw away for her stupid cliche drama.

I'm glad that Pol has finally started to come to grips with his sexuality.

Did a quick google search, looks like Kieron is off to do a play with some other soap stars.
I hope that when Ste returns he will have his head straighten out and he won't be such a mess anymore.
I get it's a soap and that Ste has always been a mess, but that repeat behavior isn't healthy or entertaining after a while. I rather see him grow up some and mature into a new place in his life where he's better.

Wait a minute Ste left the show? When did that happen? And what was his exit?
I always did like James and Kieron's acting together though. Wasn't always the biggest fan of the stories the show gave them. So if Ste is going to be back it the village around the same time as John Paul be curious to see what they get up to.

I'm just really excited about Alex getting a new love interest. I hope the guy is a good normal guy who makes him happy and not some secret guy whose only going after Alex because of the whole alien secret.
That and Jamie Clayton guest starring next season as well.

Tyler is such an idiot do do something like with a former student in his own home. He's jeopardizing everything in his life for being involved with someone that comes across as as bit obsessive with him in a unhealthy way.

I believe after Bruno left in Merli, Pol was in a relationship with a guy. Someone from the shop? My memory isn't the best I thought Pol and that guy were just friends with benefits?

I wonder if Pol is going to have something going with that guy Biel more than just sexual. At least I'm guessing they have something sexual going on, the way they play off each other in the trailer.
It would be too easy for him to be with another girl, we know he likes women and he enjoys being with them sexually and romantically. That has been shown several times in the last show. But other than Bruno and his friends with benefits that helped Pol embrace his bisexuality, he hasn't really been with a guy that I'm aware of. And other than Bruno, Pol hasn't really been emotionally attached to a guy. Having Pol start something of serious emotion with this guy moves his story along in a new direction. And starts a new chapter for him as a person and with his sexuality and with what he wants out of life/relationships.
We all know that Bruno and Pol end up together, but they both need to go on their own journey and figure themselves out as their own people first.
Plus he has lustful scenes with the women who are clearly attracted to his hotness, but he has more friendship/emotional connections with his new friend as well. We know Pol is super sexual, but he has rarely connected with someone outside of the bedroom. That will be new for him in many different ways.

Only thing I am concerned about is if Omar and Ander would have their storyline separate from the rest of the cast. It is looking like the main storyline is Samuel digging into the murder of last season. I can't think of much ways that Omar or Anders can play a part in that. I can easily see them keep Omar/Anders by themselves and feature them only two or three minutes an episode. Actually, thinking about it, they kind of did that already last season. Omar and Ander's story was basically entirely separate from the main murder mystery. They only seem to appear each episode to advance their relationship for a few minutes each episode. To the rest of the cast, they might as well be background characters. See I wonder if they will have a bigger part since Ander is Guzman's best friend and Guzman lost his sister (he thinks because of Samuel's brother, he doesn't look happy to see Samuel in the trailer) so I wonder if Guzman will be against Omar since he's Samuel's best friend. Or if he will be for Omar and Ander cause Guzman cares for Ander and because Omar is Nadia's brother. Guzman is so passionate and he feels things so strongly and he's so enraged/heartbroken over the loss of his sister. Since Nadia helped Omar and Ander, I hope they are there for her in her own personal growth story that seems to be coming in season two.

I really hope with everything that is going on with Adrian and Deran's story that they don't kill either one of them. I can't take one more dead or pretty much dead LGBT character.

That's what I like about streaming services. That if you come into late on a show, you have the earlier seasons to catch up and enjoy. That you don't have to go elsewhere to see different parts in different seasons.

I wonder if starting off they will have Pol and Bruno just be friends because everything is complicated with them. During that time Pol will go out and hook up with both women and men. Than Bruno and Pol will have a few more sexual encounters and then maybe friends with benefits. Where feelings arise and things get super awkward and complicated, where maybe it's Pol who wants to make a relationship work as a change up. But it's Bruno who pulls away because he's been hurt too many times and doesn't trust that in Pol? And they circle around their feelings, something always getting in the way for a while to cause drama. But they are deeply in love and can't stay away from each other or out of each others lives.

Well aren't they keeping busy.
Now does this mean season three will come out sooner? Or they will just have it in the vault ready to go, but still make people wait a while to build up the hype?

Ok I'm a bit confused, is the spin off supposed to be about how Bruno and Pol get to where they were in the time jump in Merli finale where they are a solid couple that live together and before they get married? So this is mostly about Pol and how he becomes who he is after teen years?

When I heard about news about season two coming out, I was expecting it to be September. Mainly cause it's about a story based in a school and students. Though I wouldn't be surprised if it was middle September to late September to build up the hype. That might be of the reasons , the other being that Spanish shows don't usually premiere in the summer months. Cool fact I didn't know that, you learn something new everyday.

I'm guessing that Guzman and Lu are going to be a big time couple when the show returns. That Lu is going to be sticking to his side like glue after everything that has happened. She doesn't want him to become so lost again that he thinks about ending it and she also doesn't want to lose him because she loves him so much. But I do think it's all gonna blow in her face because Guzman still loves Nadia even though he gave his word to stay away.

I think it's gonna be a slow burn and they want to get people wondering what's going on and then when Robron are separated when Robert leaves the village later this year. They will probably amp it up to get the people to fill the Robron void.

But wouldn't that push Lola further away because she thinks it's not safe for Lexi and her?
I wonder if Jay knows that Lola still fancy him and wants to try again. At least that seems to be the reason she's having issues sticking around.

I wonder how many episodes are they getting for this new season. Mainly cause I didn't think they did the best with story telling or pacing when it came to last season. So I'm really wary, hopefully they learned from their mistakes. they are only getting 13 episodes like last season If it is Alex that would mean Tyler Blackburn would not get much air time last season he went over what his contract was for. Oh if it's 13 episodes than I really hope they learn from their mistakes and don't repeat the same ones or create all new ones. I know it's harder with 13 episodes, but it is possible. If it is Alex, I really hope they don't just have be gone and don't show his side of the story. That doesn't really work, people will be cheated and would feel disconnected from the characters and story.

I'm assuming that what is coming for Aaron after Robert leaves are some of these stories. His mental health being shaky as he recovers from being separated from his husband (I don't see Robert quietly going off somewhere, something big and dramatic is gonna be his send off. And the show loves to troll out Aaron's mental health issues) grumpy Aaron snapping at people and having issues with a few people over everything that has happened. Aaron being there for his new sibling with Chas and Paddy new baby and Liv. Also being there for Vic and her recovery and if she keeps the baby or doesn't. And if they bring Seb back in any way, have Aaron make sure that Seb remembers who Robert is and getting to spend time with Seb. Aaron focusing all he can on finding a way to bring Robert back in a safe way (I still think Robert is gonna go on the run) kinda like how Robert was when Andy had to leave. Aaron acting out and wanting those he blames for making Robert go away to pay. And of course the show showing off Danny's crying powers by having lots of Aaron crying scenes.
I do think Aaron's gonna be a busy boy.

I do think that Cory's sexuality is gonna be explored a lot more. Hopefully the poor boy realizes that it's possible to be more than just straight or gay. I'm guessing he's bi or pan and that he comes to term with that. But I think he's been the straight womanizer for so long, that this is all new for him and a lot to process. Though I don't know if Cory and Naveed will become a couple by the end of the season, but better understanding of their friendship and hinting of maybe more next time. Though I do hope that Naveed does see what the gay dating world is like and finds himself a fella that treats him well. I am not sure what message the show is going for - straight boys will experiment sexually with other boys and it doesn't have to mean a thing (in which case there's no romantic future for Coreed) or straight boys can fall in love with other boys (in which case they will disappoint a lot of shippers if Coreed don't end up together). I appreciate that Sam Retford (or his agent) haven't balked at him playing consecutive roles involving same-sex relationships. I think the show sees how popular Cory and Naveed are. And I know that fans of the show have also thought that Cory could be paired with Riz. So I think people are excited and clamoring for a LGBT Cory storyline, of a teenage boy realizing that his sexuality might not be as straight as he thought and he learns to accept that. I do wonder if this new season coming up will be more about Cory working out his sexuality and being comfortable with who he is than any kind of romances with anyone. Though I do think Cory and Naveed will play a big part of this season considering how many scenes they had in the trailer. Though if it's romance or friendship or both, who knows.

What's the problem with Danny Walters being part of the Pride episode? I really don't know much about him or his character. The thing about Ben being beaten up there are so many options on who the culprits are and who comes to help him out. I doubt it's some thugs attacking him because he's gay. I doubt the show going there, especially cause that's how they killed off Paul. I mean there are already so many people who have reason to give Ben a good trashing. Ben plans to go after Phil, there whatever he got up to while he was away, there is the stuff he's got going now, there is the dodgy cars, whatever he's messing up with Keanu, and of course his rompy pompy with Callum. I just wonder whose gonna come to Ben's rescue since he's on the ground getting kicked, Phil, Jay, or Callum. Danny Walters got exposed for tweeting homophobic slurs a few years ago and gave a very weak apology where he tried arguing that he was young and immature when he made those comments (he was 19). But it's arguable whether the slur he used repeatedly as "banter" should ever be in the vocabulary of a young adult who, only 3 years later, was busy presenting himself as a straight ally of the gay community when posing for Gay Times. (As usual, our gay press gets it so very wrong.) I had a feeling something was off about Danny's self-promoted gay-friendliness when he made that remark about finding it awkward if he had to play intimate scenes opposite the previous Ben. No true ally would have made that remark. Danny wasn't the only soap star caught out in the historic tweets scandal, but while ITV admonished and even went so far as to terminate one of its actor's contracts, the BBC has been completely silent on Danny's homophobia and is now helping him once again present gay-friendly credentials by appearing as an enthusiastic participant in its Pride episode. It does the gay community a grave disservice by helping Danny push his inauthentic "ally" narrative to the public. (Of course, plenty of gay people are also leaping to his defense because they find him hot.) Oh, that makes sense. Yeah then I think they put him in there cause he's hot and he's a character with a lot going on right now. So they were like we're gonna show him off, even though he offers nothing to the actual story or plot. And probably PR, to be like look at how much of an ally he is now, part of the scene. Though a small part of me wonders if they put him in there to force him to confront his behavior when it comes to LGBT, since they seem to have plans for more of those stories with having Prince Albert and Ben and Callum.

I don't know if this is spoilers are not since it's the shows released for the next season.
ROSWELL, NEW MEXICO
Once again, an Ortecho sister with a sharp tongue and a chip on her shoulder is back in Roswell after ten years gone… and she’s about to discover she’s been serving mint chip milkshakes to intergalactic aliens all her life. In the final moments of season one, Max Evans (Nathan Dean Parsons) used his alien powers to resurrect Rosa (Amber Midthunder) a decade after her murder... not realizing that he was sacrificing his own life in the process. In season two, Liz (Jeanine Mason) mourns her lost love by seeking comfort in science, both earthly and extraterrestrial, as Rosa turns to Kyle (Michael Trevino) to help her find her place in the unfamiliar territory of 2019. In their grief, Isobel (Lily Cowles) explores potentially dangerous methods of self-defense, and Michael (Michael Vlamis) spirals into some old bad habits, putting his relationships with Maria (Heather Hemmens) and Alex (Tyler Blackburn) at risk. Finally, our heroes must make a deal with Jesse Manes (Trevor St. John) for information after a friend seems to vanish into thin air... and the apparent “alien abduction” brings new small-town secrets to light.
There is speculation that Michael not dealing well with his trauma of everything that happened in season one such as finding his mother again, only for him to be killed in an explosion right before his eyes. To everything that happened with Noah and not to mention Max being "dead" and Michael not exactly the best at handling some emotions. Will be acting out a lot and getting into trouble next season, that he's basically a ticking time bomb ready to explode.
And that they think Alex is the one going to vanish since his character did in the books. I mean bringing Alex's father Jesse out of the medical coma that Kyle put him in over revenge for murdering Kyle's father Jim is to help find Alex I'm assuming. Jesse knows more about aliens than he has let on, considering how much he knew about the sibling trio when they thought they were so well hidden. And they might think that Jesse had a part in Alex's abduction of some sort secret corrupt military operation or maybe they think it's something alien.
I just hope if it is Alex, it's Alex mostly saving himself and not someone else rescuing him. Since Alex knows all about life and death considering all his time in the air force during war zones. And would know how to take care of himself.
Though I would be interested to see how Michael would react to Alex being taken and how he would behave in a pursuit to find Alex again. I would like to see Jesse and Michael playing off each other, egging each other on with insults over Michael being an alien and of course Alex. Considering Michael already unsteady emotional state over everything that happened, I see him attacking Jesse both with his powers and with the now healed hand that Jesse broke back when they were teens. And Michael letting his emotions cloud his mind, which I'm sure that Jesse will extort to try and work things in his favor. And that Michael will have to be sent away from Jesse by someone like Liz, or Isobel, or Kyle before Michael does something stupid when it comes to Jesse and their uses for him.
I wonder how many episodes are they getting for this new season. Mainly cause I didn't think they did the best with story telling or pacing when it came to last season. So I'm really wary, hopefully they learned from their mistakes.
