[QUOTE="Michael Torrance, post: 136419, member: 719"] There were problems with both season 5 and season 9 versions. In season 5, the reconciliation made no sense. Why couldn't Alexis have left already pregnant? (And don't get my started on a mother who has lost one son to kidnappers and two to a forced custody arrangement dumping her daughter to her sister). But the worst part of the reconciliation is that it dilutes the mythical exile from Eden image of Alexis being forced out from a raging, almost homicidal Blake and makes it so that the two would have been back again for a few months like two alienated spouses on couples therapy. Then at that point why couldn't they have made some arrangement where she slept in a separate bedroom and they were no longer partners in bed? She would be good for social events and the kids would keep their mother. With season 9, I did not like the ridiculousness of pre-k Fallon killing Roger and not even Alexis remembering. I would have preferred it if Tom had killed him when Roger found out about the art collection and blackmailed him. The inconsistencies of when Roger died and whether he was crippled can be attributed to people giving their own versions. I mean, to hear Steven tell it, Blake killed Ted Dinard. To hear Fallon tell it, she pushed him. And the D.A. in season 2 was may be telling Alexis that he can confirm that Roger Grimes died 2 months ago--aka that is when his family finally declared him dead, leaving out details he thought were inconvenient or not important for her.
