While between DAYS OF OUR LIVES’ Lucas coming home and catching EJ and Sami in the sack and Jesse and Angie’s wedding on ALL MY CHILDREN, it has been a pretty entertaining soap week, I think it’s safe to say that the biggest drama was on prime time: that’s right, AMERICAN IDOL!

So, I have crazy, depressing moral issues about THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL’s Storm shooting himself and Katie getting his heart. But rather than frothing at the mouth about that (it’s kind of like getting me on the subject of ATWT’s Ameera), I’d like to touch upon LESS froth-inducing issues.
