Fuck Callum Highway
It really sucks to see Callum look so happy and jovial with Johnny when his daughter is forced to deal with his shitty partner forcing himself into her life, and Ben is in prison fighting suicidal ideation.
Like I genuinely don't get what they wanna do with him. At this rate do they feel if they make him into a complete asshole who's only interested in his feelings that we would even wanna watch him be Lexi's dad or Ben's husband again?
I really hope Johnny cheats on him cause if Ben Wadey thinks people will tolerate this version of Callum for so long, he's wrong. All of which could be solved if he had moments of remorse or moments where he admits he fucked up and misses Ben or even just a crying scene or two. Instead he's just this delusional cardboard cutout who gave up his husband, seems to have no feelings about it besides welcoming Johnny like he's just a casual relationship that didn't start from him cheating on his husband and betraying his family.
Like it's really way too casual and if someone doesn't bring up how fucked up it is that Callum seems to see Lexi's hatred for Johnny as just some obstacle that she'll get over and not his daughter clearly suffering from his actions I'm gonna fucking riot.
I get that the writers hate giving Callum.......anything without him being an accessory to someone else but by god. You've had Tony Clay for 7 years, give him scenes to himself where he can act without him being a supporting backboard to someone else. Show us his fucking pain. Show us why he's so desperate to keep Johnny while ignoring Lexi's pain. Do fucking something.
Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if Callum doesn't even take Lexi to see Ben during visitors hours and just makes Kathy or Phil do it for him. For someone who had a shred of remorse and guilt that made him confess, he seems to clearly be ok with just throwing Ben away like nothing. Hell he still thinks Johnny will be here in 4 years when Ben comes out.
I need Johnny to cheat so Callum breaks up with him, runs back to Ben and has Ben slam the door in his face. We've gone nearly the entire affair and now this relationship with Callum barely having to face any consequences. Lexi isn't even pissed at him anymore. She ought to be angry at Callum too not just Johnny. It's like even she wants to rob Callum of all agency so it's easier when Ben comes back next year to take Callum back.
I do not look forward to the rest of Jollum. I wish there was a way to wean myself off. I don't wanna see them have couples costumes on Halloween or Valentines Day plans or a New Years Kiss. I wanna see them goneeeeeee. They have like 6 fans, most people who don't even like Ballum hate them cause they're boring, and they have no fucking chemistry at all. Get them off the fucking screen and put them in the background.
