Wicked Wicked Games is another short term soap opera to warm up the winter nights. It airs Monday through Friday with a recap episode on Saturday to catch a person up in case any episodes were missed. There is also the website with more goodies for fans to check out at www.mynetwork.com. This soap has familiar faces to soap fans because Clive Robertson starred in Sunset Beach and Jack Krimanich from Passions are part of the cast. Also Serena Scott Thompson is familiar to Buffy fans as that evil Watcher. She appears to not be evil this time.

Tatum O'Neil plays Blythe a woman with a total obsession with Theo played by Clive. OK it's totally understandable since this Brit is a total hottie. After all a group called the Estrogen Brigade was formed because of him. Twenty-five years ago seems to be the magic number since that's when he abandoned her or so she claims since the details are fuzzy. What doesn't make sense is Theo's twenty-five year old daughter and Blythe's twin sons that are probably the same age. How did that happen so quickly for the both of them? Maybe it was super sperm along with whoosh pregnancies because the timing doesn't work because they broke up twenty-five years ago.

Blythe spends her share of time with her video blog. She even has an evil laugh. She isn't exactly mother of the year since she has no problem manipulating her sons. Her favorite son is Aaron who does whatever Mommy says. This role for Jack is quite a departure from his role as John on Passions. Josh is a doctor and the twin that can be used as a pawn by his brother who has no problem screwing with him.

Theodore Crawford has two daughters Emma and Brooke. It's kinda funny because it's a bit of a stretch for this guy to have a twenty-five year old daughter. Hello teen father. He owns the Tides which is the biggest track in all of San Diego. Little does he know that his downfall is being plotted by a crazy woman and her son who is working for him under an assumed name.
