Just when I thought there couldn’t be an idea worse than Everyday Heroes, Days of Our Lives trumped GH (whilst holding a Jaguar phone) with Touch the Skies Airlines. “Impossible!” you may say with righteous indignation and clenched fists. I mean how can anything be more ridiculous than a feel good show hosted by an ex-con woman/mob moll taped (we’ve seen the production values, they’re obviously not using film) in Port Charles. Well, ladies and gentleman, I give you an upstart airline that flies back and forth from Salem to Las Vegas. (Apparently there are lots of high rollers in Salem that make weekend trips to Vegas. This may seem like a faulty premise because obviously we know everyone in Salem. Who’s going to fly on this shit? Tony? And if he does, would he bring his horse?) Anyway, so Jeremy Horton who is like the son of the long absent Mike Horton and his onetime love, Robin, partners with Jett Carver (nephew of Abe, probably future lover of Lexie once she returns) in this airline scheme and then convinces Max to invest while Stephanie and Chelsea will be the flight attendants. An airline that consists of five people. Well there’s your business model, US Airways.
The only thing that would make this idea worse (and no, I am not going to say a barebones reality show chronicling the airlines) is if there’s a plane crash storyline coming in the months ahead. Oh and if Chelsea ends up with Malibu Ken Jeremy at some point. Although I am confident that Chelsea would be a better post-plane crash leader than Jack Shephard. I am also fairly certain that when they are eventually rescued then Sam McCall will show up and make an episode about it. In time for November Sweeps of course.
