All right, who thought killing Laura off was a good idea?
A year ago, Bill Horton died off-screen for no reason other than it gave the writers a flimsy exit story for JJ that didn't respect his character at all.
And now, Laura's joined her husband in the great beyond as part of an equally ridiculous storyline.
Laura was not one of my favorite characters, and she certainly did herself no favors this time around.
But she is a legacy character and one of the last links to Alice and Tom. Remember them, writers? The heads of the family that Days of Our Lives revolved around from 1965 until MacDonald Carey died in 1994?
And she died in a particularly unoriginal way for no reason other than that it will likely cause a conflict between Jack and Jennifer when the truth comes out about what happened to her.
