A long one today. 45 minutes. Today was very couple and potential couple heavy. Some were good, some were bad and some made me sick to my stomach again #PoorPeter But I did think the writing, and the acting too, were pretty good in this episode. The problem was some of the couples themselves. I didn’t dislike today, but I would’ve liked it much, much more had it not been for some of those “couples” And please get this stunning, charismatic man away from this awful, selfish, disgrace to the LGBTQ+ community and his douchebag ex-best friend. Please. Seriously, the way Leo is just discarding Javi but then pretending he still cares for him is really starting to piss me off. I still don’t know if it’s the writing or the way that Greg Rikaart plays it but I just don’t believe any word that comes out of Leo’s mouth. Btw yes Leo, you are betraying Javi 🖕🖕 I’m glad that Peter Porte’s having fun but seriously, this is just hurting him. In terms of overall storyline, it’s like Dimitri’s an addict and Leo and Gwen are fentanyl. It’s not good, no matter what it feels like. He needs to get away from them. He can be so much more than this, especially considering that little scene with EJ at the end. Speaking of the douchebag ex-best friend, she really should be kept away from Xander too. I did like them together back in 2021, but at this point, I’d much rather he be (temporarily) paired with anyone else. Stephanie, perhaps… if they had done a better job with her storyline. There would be more drama in that anyway. As for Brady/Sarah, hopefully Brady remembers to lay down the law to his awful kid and her mother lol I’d much rather prefer Brady the way that he was today then him being so beholden to Kristen. Chad’s goodbye tour was the best part of today. I like that he got to have some closure with Belle and that Days remembered that they’ve been teasing them for a while. I think they could’ve been good together, at least for a little while anyway. Hopefully, they’ll continue this storyline once Connor Floyd makes his debut Especially since EJ found them on their Valentine’s Day date. Susan was unnecessary though lol But I thought Gabi and Philip were sweet today. I liked the way that he comforted her over Stefan. I think they’re ok together but Days just really needs to kick their storyline into high gear… and weave Theo into it a lot more.

I’d imagine that there’s clips on Twitter or somewhere

You’re 100% correct. It’s definitely on Dee. I’m sure whatever happened between them was terrible, but at the same time, you have a responsibility to the show, the fans, and especially to all the people you work with to be a professional, regardless of anything. And it just hurts the show, in general, for anyone to not be.

Well, I sure am missing all the wrestling content on Peacock 😂😂 But in the mean time... Dawson's Creek, Season 3 😥 Knots Landing, Season 11 Beverly Hills 90210, Season 2 Frasier, Season 4 Diff'rent Strokes, Season 2 The Facts of Life, Season 1 Family Ties, Season 5 Three's Company, Season 7 Two and a Half Men, Season 1

Hmmmm... interesting that Noel Maxam's debut is going to coincide with some of the news that we've gotten lately. I wonder if that means something.

Lmaooooooo what a mess

Awwwww Billy The promo looks alright, in spite of the bad news that we got today lol And I find it quite interesting that the utterly repulsive couple is in three episodes next week, but aren't featured in the promo at all.

The only openly gay male athlete on Team USA, speedskater Conor McDermott-Mostowy

Touche 😉

Like I said about Paris. All those young, sexy people, with all that energy to burn off 😉😂😂😂

It's ridiculous. There's still plenty of story that can be told for Jeremy We'll probably get the same old excuse that it was a budget issue, but I think that's bullshit. Even with the budget issues, it's pretty obvious that a lot of these bad/stupid decisions are choices. Just like with Ron. Missing your posts in the Days threads... even though I understand why you quit 😂😂

F*ckin' horndogs 😂😂😂😂😂 https://www.nbcnewyork.com/olympics/2026-milan-cortina/condom-shortage-olympic-village-why-run-out/6461217/ @Soapsuds

That POS is gonna do to Javi the exact same thing that he did to Gwen, isn’t he 🤬🤬🤬

Paula/Jeanne and everybody BTS at Days should be ashamed of themselves

A lot of red in these last few episodes. I know it's supposed to be Valentine's Day but damn 😂😂😂 I thought Marlena was used a lot better today than she was on Wednesday. Both with Xander and Sarah at the beginning and later on with Maggie and Julie, even though there was still some iciness in those scenes lol. Admittedly, I don't think it was as bad as it was at the Book Club but it was still there. But I'm glad that Marlena was able to discuss with someone how she's been feeling lately, and that Days drew a parallel between all three of them having to deal with the fact that people that they've been living with are all finally moving out on their own. Regardless of everything, it's always nice to see the three of them lean on each other. Xander and Sarah were kinda sweet too. I liked their trip down memory lane and I'm looking forward to seeing how they find their way back to each other. But I really, really wish that they weren't pairing Xander with Gwen in the mean time. I did like them as a couple when they first got together, but now, the ship has sailed. I'd rather Xander be temporarily paired with anyone else but Gwen. And, Brady got an actual apartment set! It's a redressed Hernandez kitchen, but at least it's something lol except for that ugly shade of green 😂 I'm glad that Tate called Brady out on how stupid he's being about Kristen. Too bad that he rolled over so easily though. Now, would be the perfect time for Tate to get his (recast) mother to come back to Salem. There's still a lot of story that can be told for Theresa, in general. A lot more than there is for Kristen. And while I'm not a fan of Sophia drugging Holly, I did kind of like the scenes of Holly freaking out on the sorority girls after they mentioned how hot Tate was lol the lead sorority girl was a little cliche though. But I'm glad that Tate was able to comfort her. And he did look cute in his "Kiss the Cook" apron 😊😂😂

At least he tried, with those Valentine's candies 😂😂 Ehhhh... he doesn't bother me as much as Portia does.

Welcome back, Maxie! And while I still think they needed to better establish a reason why Nathan seemed to have pretty much forgotten all about his love for Maxie, I am interested in seeing Lulu/Nathan/Maxie play out. Btw, congratulations Curtis! But yeah... Isaiah needs to dump Portia's ass too. He's too hot and too nice for someone that mean.

Tubi's free 😉

I still can't see how Leo would be more popular then, for example, any one of Marlena's children or grandchildren.

So, is this it for Billy Flynn? It really feels like this is going to be his exit storyline. I guess I can understand Chad going to visit Will and Sonny with the kids, especially after everything that happened with Jack and Jennifer. Jeremy's part in this storyline seems a little forced and unnecessary though, even though Chad swore that him leaving is not related to Jeremy at all. He doesn't need to be any more of a clunky red herring than he already is. But I did enjoy Julie's scenes with both of them. Chad and Julie are always great together, and despite the clunkinness of Jeremy's storyline, I enjoyed his scenes with Julie as well and that she's always stood up for him against Stephanie, Alex, etc. Speaking of Stephanie and Alex, congratulations, I think lol As an individual episode, I thought their scenes were nice too, despite the obvious lack of budget. But overall, I still feel like the writers have missed the mark with everything related to them and their storyline. I mean, where's the drama? Why was the stalker not loaded up with a sniper's rifle and ready to shoot Alex at the altar? I'm not entirely against them getting married but Days really needed to send them to hell and back before they finally reached this point. Like, what happens now for them as a couple? If this is it for them, then they're the ones that should've been written out. I felt the same way about Johnny and Chanel today as well. Their scenes started off really nice but then they got kinda stupid. And I would much rather Johnny had been the one to give her a prenatal massage rather than some random U/5. How do you waste the hot young couple like that? The money that Days used to pay her should have been used on an actor to play the stalker, that was going to shoot Alex lol. Carson's facial hair did look good though. And even though I'm not a fan of Theo and Jada, I am a little interested in what's going to happen when they go out on their Valentine's Day date.

RIP James Van Der Beek

Some people may disagree because of the bad haircut and the horrendous writing, but I have to go with Peter Porte. Not only is he breathtaking, but he has a natural charm and charisma that was on full display in Beyond Salem. He had such good chemistry with Lisa Rinna, to the point that I was really disappointed that he turned out to be a "bad guy" at the end. And as much as I hate to admit it, he does have chemistry with Greg Rikaart and Emily O'Brien too. He just needs a much, much better storyline, because honestly, this is hurting him and his character. And IMO, the reason why some people don't find him sexy. It still is crazy to me how writing can sometimes make or break a character's sexiness. (Ex. Wayne Northrop on Dynasty vs. Wayne Northrop on Days)

All seasons of Dawson's Creek are streaming on Tubi. I started watching when the news first broke of his condition and it's been delightful watching him and also finally seeing the show through adult eyes lol. I really thought he was going to beat it. RIP.

Sorry y'all, but today was not that good. There wasn't any stupid, campy crap, but a lot of the unlikable characters were front and center. And it was quite sad that Marlena had to spend her first Valentine's Day without John with Leo, who once again proved what a selfish POS he is. He was so in love in Javi but now he's practically an afterthought for him. And I'm definitely not looking forward to him trying to prove Dimitri's innocence. This character will never not make my skin crawl. He doesn't deserve to be happy. And honestly, those scenes weren't a good look for Marlena either. Idk what Paula/Jeanne are thinking but Leo will never be the good guy in this storyline, regardless of how it's written. Not only because of the character's history, but also because of the way Greg Rikaart plays it. As always, even when he's trying to be sincere, I feel like he comes off as fake and manipulative. I hope Javi tries to steal Dimitri away from him when he comes back to Salem. Anything would be better than this. And honestly, who wrote the dialogue in those scenes? The guy who was going to kill millions of people with a damn Peacock, including Leo, isn't capable of holding people captive?? I know Uncle Ron pretty much wanted us to forget Beyond Salem in order to push this utterly repulsive couple, but come on 🖕 Speaking of Dimitri, it was nice to see him again, despite my hatred of the storyline and my dislike of today's episode. And now that he got bail, it would be the perfect time for him to start investigating what Gwen is up to at the lab... and meet Mark. As for EJ/Gwen, I'm still not really a fan of the two of them together but their scenes today didn't annoy me as much as they usually do. And yeah, Kristen is a terrible mother. And Brady giving in to her crap was just sad.

Is this the Winter Olympics version of Stephen Nedoroscik? 😂😂
