How Can This Be Fixed?

Let's face it, the Ameera storyline is a mess. I'm sure the writers are working on a way to clean this up. But if you were them what would you do to fix it? What is the one thing that you think can/should be done to make this entertaining and interesting? BTW, divorce or annulment or Ameera being shoved under a truck is not an answer. :lol:

Awe, Anthony your no fun. Shoving her under a truck was first thing I was going to suggest. :lol:

Actually I will have to think about this for a while, before I can post a serious answer. The story is quite a mess right now.

You would have to start by writing down the goals you had to make people like the story better - here would be mine:

1. Keep the focus on Luke and Noah.

2. Don't let Luke or Noah do anything out of character.

3. Don't let Noah do anything to revert his character backwards.

4. Get Ameera some sympathy somehow. Make it clear somehow that this marriage actually did save her.

5. Luke and Noah need to bend but not break.

6. Don't glorify the marriage, especially in Noah's eyes. Make it an obstacle especially for Noah.

7. Try to have an outcome that will put Luke and Noah more on equal footing - not "Luke on the pedestal with Noah looking up." To me, this means either Luke does something bad, or is needy, and Noah becomes the hero and fixes it. Either lift Noah up, or bring Luke down so Noah sees that he's human and not Superman, or a combination of both.

then the trick is, to take the story in a direction that will accomplish these things.

That would take some time for me to think through. Suggestions, or additions and changes to the list of goals, would be most welcome !

Ok, so I thought of a few ideas, but nothing "well thought out" or planned and some ya all might not like.

I would write Ameera off the show come may. I really don't care for here either way. I don't love her and I don't hate her. The only really time I find her interesting is her scenes with Casey, and while I would like to see to a Casey/Ameera pairing, I really don't see much of a long term future for that couple. Many viewers don't like Ameera and doubt they ever will, instead of wasting time trying to "fix her" and make viewers like (like they are trying to do with Sofie) I would just bring back Jade or Maddie.

So, I would make Ameera a can artist that's in cahoots with Winston.

Wintson's letter going missing and his phone call would start to be addressed and some how get Luke, Noah or both to start and investigate that.

I would have Luke and Noah fight and probably have Luke get fed up and break things off with Noah for a bit and have Luke go back to the bottle. (which could lead into next storyline when marraige is over)

I would probably bring Winston back for some big finale and he ends up dead and Ameera some how leaves Oakdale forever and doesn't end up related to anyone.

So yeah, some random (and probably terrible) ideas and no real way to "weave" them together, but hey I'm just a viewer, so it's not my job to clean this mess up, I just expected it to cleaned up somehow for me, LOL.

1) show Ameera in a good light by show she being use to get to the boys.

2) be fouce on Luke and Noah.

3) use thing that from Noah past like Winston juke and Cheri letters and stuff that Noah got.

4) Luke and Noah have friends outside their relastionship.

Love your ideas. At least it would provide the story with some drama AND action. Noah walking about the campus with his arm about Ameera's shoulder pretending to be her husband is ludicrous.

Let's get something going here. Your ideas put things into motion and that's what we need now some movement in the sl. Part Two. I'm ready and waiting.
