This SL is so offensive! Soldiers come back from the war every day, scarred for life. No amount of surgery will make them perfect again, but here's Adam without a scar on him. And when was he supposed to have died? The family got word of his death just a few weeks ago, and "Riley" shows up the next day. It would take a very long time to have such extensive surgery. The SL is a slap in the face of all those who have had their lives blown up - literally - in service to their country!

ITA...I find this s/l ridiculous! It doesn't make any sense. It's not realistic especially Adam not having any scars on him? GMAB...The writers are really being pathetic.

I don't like this sl at all. The only hope I can see for it is Casey finally telling his mama that he realizes that he has done wrong in the past but all he did was steal, and the only diff between he and Adam was that he was not a product of an affair. Adam tried to rape somebody and Margo being a rape victim excuses her Ba$turd son for attempted rape. I wish Will would find out it was Adam and beat his butt up then Gwen press charges and Casey turn his back on his mama and take Tom w/ him. Margo be left w/ no one, except her jailbird, oh sorry, I mean son.

Everything about this story line is rediculous. First of all the only ppl who knew about what Adam did to Gwen was Will, Gwen, Jade, Maddie, and Kacey! They told Adam to leave and never come back or they would tell ppl what he did. So how does everyone know all of a sudden???? Then Margo is being her usual annoying self how can she ask Kacey to not tell anyone that its Adam. She's protecting him when she threw Kacey in jail! I hope Tom is livid with Margo when he finds out. She has basically chosen rapist Adam over Kacey!

I think Adam had plastic surgery before he went overseas. Honestly, I never did like the way they changed Adam after Craig Lawlor left the role in 2002. Adam had two very loving fathers who raised him (Tom and Hal), and it has been inconceivable to me that he could have turned out to be such a nasty guy! I'd like for Adam to prove to Casey and everyone else that he has changed for the better.

No, he explained how he had reconstructive surgery after being involved in a bombing.

The only good thing about this s/l is Tom Degnan. Talk about eye candy!!! That man is scrumtidlyumptions.

Other than that I agree with what everyone else is saying. The writers are starting to scare me.

Thanks for clearing that up for me. Since Adam was in the bombing in Spring 2009, I don't think enough time has passed for his severe facial wounds and reconstructive surgery to be totally healed. But, we are in Soapland, so thinking logically about things is totally illogical.

I'm a bit conflicted over this s/l. However, it was no big surprise learning that Riley was Adam.

I can accept Adam having plastic surgery and not having any scars. After all, this is a soap opera. The problem I have accepting this s/l is that his voice has changed and no one is commenting on it. No one on the show and no posters seem to notice.

There was discussion on his voice in another thread (I forget which one), and my suggestion was he suffered throat/vocal cord injuries that changed his voice, but you're right-- I'm surprised the writers haven't said anything about it. I guess they thought we wouldn't notice?

Thank you Buffyfan for your comments. I was beginning to think that I was the only person that was questioning his voice. I have watched soaps for a long, long time. I have learned to accept a lot from a soap but I was really having trouble with this. I think the writers think we viewers don't notice anything. As you know, a loyal viewer notices anything. Including the past. I think we know more about the past of the shows and characters than the writers do.

Right on the money!!! Who would believe he had skin grafts only weeks ago?? Most people with that kind of surgery never look flawless.??? Whats up with that?

Ita...He looks flawless except for his chest, but again even though people have skin grafts especially on their face there is definately gonna be scar tissues no matter how many weeks and or months they've had it done. It' not realistic, but then again what soap operas are.
