Pastor Frank Hogan Character

1265 Words6 Pages

First of all, do make certain that you realize potential spoiler alerts are ahead. I do my best to ensure that doesn 't happen, but in the event that you learn something you didn 't know (and wish you hadn 't), know that you have been warned. Secondly, please note that I do not entertain negativity against the actors and others connected with the show. Feel free to disagree with my opinion, and it 's one thing to criticize the plot, but please keep your words as uplifting as possible as my objective is to be a positive buoy amid the rough and negative seas of the critics. This episode does indeed center around the character of Pastor Frank, and quite honestly it is time for a bit of a confessio on my part. I have not been overly accepting of this character in Hope Valley, and ever since Mark joined last season, I wasn 't sure what I thought of his portrayal of this rugged and simple pastor. I was suspicious of Pastor Hogan, his intentions towards …show more content…

While Abigail is somewhat shaken at the beginning of the episode with the disturbing news concerning Frank 's past, you can bet your bottom dollar that it is Abigail (and a couple others in the town) who determine that Pastor Frank Hogan should be given another chance. And it is through these events that I began to see Frank and the actor who has breathed life into this troubled, softspoken man in a new light. I was always convinced Mark physically fit the role, but I think I reacted so vigorously to his character due to my disappointment in the character Bill. I was certain Bill and Abigail should be together, and it has only been this season that I "forgave" that character. Undoubtedly, I believe I viewed Mark with prejudicial eyes, but thankfully, the eyes, heart, and soul of the fair and balanced reviewer conquered those predetermined views. Mark gives his best performance to date in this episode, and suddenly, it makes sense for this quiet man of faith, who is the very epitome of redemption, to be in

    Y’know, I think these kids spend far too much time hanging around with an old lady. You’d think their parents would think the same when they were invited for a sleepover at a haunted house. This show tries to explain the unbelievable (ghosts) with the unbelievable (aliens) yet again, which confuses me. Not a fan of the recurring Professor Rivers, with her naive personality and name too similar to Dr Song. Cool to see Donald Sumpter now he’s appeared as Rassilon in Hell Bent, and also twice in the classic show.

    I am ethically and personally opposed to and appalled by cheating, and there were many instances of infidelity throughout Terms: Emma cheated on her husband with a man named Sam, who was also married. Emma’s husband, Flap, had an affair with a graduate student named Janice. The actions of these characters did not quite endear them to me, as I find unfaithfulness on any scale a deplorable act, and thus, I was not fond of them. Other characters had less detestable, but still significant, personality flaws.
