Days Of Our Lives Spoilers -There’s A Price, There’s Always A Price!

Xander knew there’d be a price, there’s always a price with Kristen giving anything that looks like help to anyone, even though Xander was instrumental in exonerating Brady Black (Eric Martsolf)!

Xander and Sarah turned his mother, Fiona Cook (Serena Scott Thomas) into the police after Xander caught her trying to push Sarah down a staircase to her death.

One would think Kristen wouldn’t try to blackmail Xander out of his legacy after saving the father of her daughter from a prison sentence, but here we are.

"Book 1: Air" is rock solid but underserved by its breezy 12-episode run. "Book 2: Spirits" is entertaining but a structural mess. However, seasons 3 and 4 overcame the growing pains and delivered an experience as incredible as "The Last Airbender" at its best.

One area where "Korra" never faltered was its voice cast. Comedian Janet Varney was perfect as Korra, imbuing the young Avatar with both spunk and self-doubt. There were also plenty of big names in the cast: J.K.
