So, Samson is stabbed next week. I can only assume he dies as it’s already been confirmed he’s going to be killed off.

What an awful storyline for Samson and Matty :(

[rileychester]

You know what makes me furious about Emmerdale.

They waste their time with pointless characters like Chole instead of spending their time on better characters like Matty.

Matty has been on the show a lot longer than Chole and that’s not even including when he was on before when he was a kid with the whole Barton family.

Lets start first with the fact that he’s trans, there is so little repsentation of trans character on tv and there should be more. Also most of the trans characters I know are from the US, I don’t think I know any who are based in the UK.

Added on the fact that Amy and him are a couple. And yet we haven’t seen them be a couple, they’re engaged to be married if the show can be bothered to remember.

Why haven’t we seen them have small moments like having domestic moments of sharing a meal or sorting out who used the last of the milk. Or big moments where they have a date night together or talk about if they want more kids.

We haven’t even gotten into the soap gold mine of the fact that Amy is the mother of Kyle, that she shares with Cain. Who is Matty’s freaking stepfather and Amy and Cain have a touchy truce over custody of Kyle. Not even going into everything that happened with the accidental death of Al.

Circling back round to Amy and Matty getting married. Yet no mention, no discussion of what kind of wedding they want or going to have. I mean you think the show would be all over that. Think of the publicity that would bring them, in all the magazines and yet nothing. I mean no talk of the food, the music, the venue, nothing. Not even a mention of Kyle giving Amy away at the wedding.

Speaking of Kyle, why don’t they have more scenes with Kyle and Matty. Not only as stepbrothers, but the fact that Amy and Matty are dating and Matty is suppose to become Kyle’s stepdad. Yet, Kyle spends more time with Issac and if he is with Matty, it’s because Matty is ushering him off so the grownups can talk.

Matty should be on the show more, given better storylines and more screen time.

Emmerdale needs to step it up.

Why do I have the feeling that I’ve got the blame missile coming right at me?

"This week his comments have been cast as a slight on Swift (according to Elle, he was "throwing shade" at her). I don't see them that way. I see them as the thoughts of a musician with an ego and ambition to match that of Swift, who does not want to be viewed as the subordinate in a partnership. The feelings of an artist who wants to be celebrated in his own right. The reason I asked whether he feared losing himself in a relationship had nothing to do with the fact he was a male pop star who had been linked to another, more successful female pop star – it was because I think it’s something that many of us, myself included, often struggle with. It would be naive to remove his comments from a broader debate about gender and power. The fact is that we live in a society where a successful woman is still an intimidating prospect for a man. Healy is an intelligent and liberal man, with a substantial and evolved insight into the world of women – he obviously adores them and wants to be adored by them, he has clearly had some fairly formidable female role models in his life. And yet even he wrestles with these culturally entrenched views of gender roles."

March 18, 2016: Following the poor reaction to Matty's 'emasculating' comments, the original author, Laura Barton, writes a follow-up article clarifying that her impression of Matty was not that of a misogynist, but a liberal man struggling with society's gender roles.

Randomly wondering why Emmerdale hasn't brought in any long lost Sugdens; real, adjacent (Merricks!) or retconned, in these last 10ish years or so, besides Robert. And I'm not even talking long-term, just at all!

Let's see.

When Robert arrived back, he was tacked-on to a family he was only related to by marriage-to-be, the Whites. They were wealthy, powerful and had a three generation dynamic he wasn't a part of, as Lachlan wasn't his child (we got to meet Donny later). Of course Rebecca completed the White line-up.

Making Robert a dad was super important to TPTB, but even then, Robert lost Seb to Liverpool long before Ryan Hawley gave his leaving notice.

In contrast we have the Dingles and the Dingle add-ons. Here is what I could think of right now; A secret daughter for Marlon in April, Kyle came back to live in the village, they brought in Aaron's sister Liv, then we had Faith re-cast, Mandy came back + Vinny, brand new secret sons - Ryan for Charity (and his son Oscar on top of that!) and Nate for Cain, and finally Caleb, his wife Ruby and their son Nicky.

Not to mention the people who have married and/or had kids with Dingles.

They brought in several Bartons, relatives by marriage to Moira, but blood relatives to her children; James, Ross, Pete and Finn + Emma, then a return from Holly, Matty and finally a brother for Moira; Mackenzie.

Tates: they started with Joe (and Graham who was very entangled with the whole family) followed by Kim, then Jamie, Andrea and Millie (and Millie's maternal granny), and also Caleb and his family who are both Dingle and Tate adjacent.

The Anderson family was extended with daughter Naomi, mother Claudette and father Victor, and we even got to meet the mum/ex-wife.

We got two new Sharmas in Amit and Suni, plus the return of Archie, a couple of extra King kids in Elliot and Carl + nephew Tom, Meena was Manpreet's sister, Chloe was Kerry's secret daughter and Amy's sister, and Paddy got a brand new dad in Bear. Vanessa and Tracy were made sisters and got a joint dad in Frank. Rhona's mother Mary came and stayed, and then there was Gus and a new biological baby with no cheating story!

Heck, we were even subjected to Wendy's creepy ex-husband, Russ, making the total Posner count four characters + they made one of them "father" to Harry!

Both Jack and Joe Sugden were away from the village plenty, as was Robert. They could have gotten up to all sorts. Andy had a whole other birth family, but they all disappeared. Robert has two half siblings in Sandie and Tommy (he is something of a mystery), and they are bound to have families of their own. And what about Sarah Sr, couldn't she have a relative or two out there in the world, who would be blood relatatives to Victoria and Harry? Kathy was very much a part of the Sugden family, she had at least one kid in Australia we've only ever heard of.

I don't know if the show doesn't 'dare' mess around with the Sugdens and feel they are a bit 'untouchable' or if they just plain and simple aren't at all interested in them? (Actually I can guess.) But I still think it's weird and the Dingles should never have taken over the whole village like this.

That turned into quite a long post, if anyone made it to the end of it, sorry! 🙈

My brain is pretty fried after this, let me know if I missed/left out anything important!

[theredandwhitequeen]

Why must we get Ross Barton back on Emmerdale? Why can we not have nice things, like Ryan coming back? The only people who he is related to are Matty, and his son Moses, who he had with Charity. Maybe he can hang out with Aaron and Mack, but I’m pretty sure the last time Aaron saw him, he was taking Sebastian away from them. Why has he left Rebecca? He left Rebecca who has a head injury alone with an almost 7 year old Sebastian. Bring me Robert back now, please or bring me Sebastian and give him to Aaron or Victoria. Ugh. Boooo.
