The Philip and Xander crushes were on full display today 😍😂😂 But I’m enjoying all of this. This is one umbrella storyline that I could definitely get behind 😂 I like that it involves so many characters and has so many smaller storylines underneath it. The only thing I’d say is that maybe they should have waited a little before Philip and Xander went to court; that way everyone’s storylines could progress a little more, leading to a big explosive reveal in court. But whatevs, I’m looking forward to seeing what happens. And I’m still wondering if something gonna happen between Xander and Stephanie. I liked the Belle/Brady scenes too. They have really good sibling chemistry and it’s good to see they each have someone to talk to about their failed love lives. And I really like that it looks like Belle is gonna end up being Philip’s lawyer in his case. Though I’d prefer it if they didn’t give us Shawn/Belle/Philip 58.0 lol I like what this could lead to for all three of them in their own personal storylines, especially Shawn’s. Speaking of Shawn, I’m glad that Shawn is back on the force and is working with Jada again. Days missed a great opportunity to do something with the two of them the last time they were on the canvas together and I hope they take that chance now. Maybe The Ava/Kristen showdown was ok. The problem with all this though is that it’s making Kristen look so pathetic and desperate. This character is stuck in a deep rut and I’m hoping everyday that she’s finally given something different to do once the new writers come in.

I just checked. Amanda’s brain tumor happened the same year as well. Again, what a year 😂

Maybe they should’ve waited, just due to the fact that John’s not here to meet his first great grandchild

Yes. I know 😂😂😂😂 But everything I said is true though

In addition to Neil and Phyllis’ newborn baby dying and Brooke’s mother dying of alcoholism. That was quite a year for Days 😂 Trish’s DID/Mike being accused of murder came after Mickey’s breakdown.

She’s too spoiled and selfish and heartless to carry on Bobbie’s legacy. Plus, future doctors aren’t supposed to leave people to die just because they’re horny 😂 Lucas is in a much better position to do it.

Well, Sophia really was the breakout star of that group 😂😂 More than Tate or Holly

Nah. I just can’t stand it when awful characters get propped constantly, as though they’re good people. It makes me want to hate them even more 😂

Somebody needed to get slapped or punched yesterday 😂 I hope that happens 🙏🙏😂

Why is Clyde not dead? I’m glad that he’s leaving but he needs to die, not just be in a coma. Seriously, enough is enough. I swear I think the only reason Ron kept him around was because he needed a villain that he wasn’t hot for. Or because he felt he needed a supervillain. But if you think about it, no soap needs a supervillain anymore. I do like that type of character but honestly, the days of Stefano, Victor, Helena, James, etc. are over. In the case of Days, these clowns like Clyde and Konstantin could never compare to Stefano and Victor anyway. Plus, there are plenty of characters on the canvas already who can be a villain. Hopefully, Clyde doesn’t pop up again in these final months of Ron’s run and hopefully, the new writers forget he ever even existed. But overall, I enjoyed today. There were a lot of sweet family and friends moments, especially with Steve and Kayla. And I also liked Gabi comforting JJ when he revealed that he felt he was letting Abigail down. Tate, Holly and Aaron were really nice too, even though I still think Tate and Holly are dicks because of everything that happened with Sophia 😂 But I really liked them helping out Aaron today. And even though the actor still needs work, I’m liking Aaron’s characterization. He’s a sweet kid. Btw, it’s definitely time to get Mark out of prison. I’m still not sure how he can be charged in Salem for a crime that took place in Paris.

Agreed, that the way Brooke was written today was ridiculous. Believe me, if anybody ever talked to my kid like that, I’d put them through a f*ckin wall.

I think I hate her more than I hate Leo 😂😂😂

He’s gorgeous, isn’t he? 😍

Just trying to get people to watch 😉😂😂

Oh God, please let it be true 🙏🙏🙏 Let Clyde finally be dead and gone! That was a great way to end today’s episode, even though I can’t help but think that Caterina shooting Clyde before he could tell Chad where Abigail’s body is might have been another classic Ron Carlivati “f*ck you” to the fans. And otherwise messed up the happy occasion of Clyde hopefully being killed off for good. Seriously, I don’t want any Weston’s on Days ever again. They were alright in the beginning (under a different writer) but overall, all three of them were a cancer on this show. Speaking of cancers on this show, poor Marlena and poor Javi and Kerry were wasted on Leo again, in another set of pointless scenes that were filled with incoherent rambling and Roger Howarth-like manic rants. I can’t believe Marlena’s only scene today was with Leo. But I did love it when both Javi and Kerry put him in his place 👍 They were clearly meant to be the bad guys in their scenes but that’s definitely not going to work. And honestly, my hatred for the character aside, I felt that Leo was just creepy and stalkerish in those scenes today and not even like in a funny way, or at least an attempt to be funny. I’m sure that the writers were trying to build sympathy for him but that’s not the way that it all came off. Like, bro, stop harassing these people and ruining their lunch date. Javi did look hot in the beginning though 😍😂😂 And yes, I agree with everybody that the actor playing Caterina looks wayyyy too young to play Cat’s mother. And she looks like Lisa Kudrow 😂

Yeah… the frat boy brawl was so cliche it wasn’t even funny. And a little unnecessary too. I mean, what was the point of making Dex’s stabbing a mystery, right after it was revealed that Cyrus killed Sam? But whatevs. And, I don’t like Curtis being so easily manipulated by Michael. He’s a lot smarter than that.

I still go back and read them once in a while 😂

Oh definitely 😂 But the gap seems like it’s supposed to be a part of both of their characters.

I was crying 😂 In 1984, they said that Bo was 21

Yeah. The lack of care was obvious too. Which is why I’m glad that they seemed to get all the facts correct about Steve Olson and the diamonds. And Dougie/Charles LeClair too. They definitely spent some time on Jason47. Or read @beebs awesome recaps from a few years ago 😂😂

I just expect them to follow up on that storyline someday because of how it ended. Either with BB or a recast. Agreed. I’m still watching 1988, and every time I see an episode with Diana in it… tbh, it’s almost sad what was done to her.

His POV belongs in this storyline (and Luna’s) more than anybody’s

😍😍 Should I… Nah 😂😂😂😉

Much better episode today. I like the way everything was broken down, both with the vets, and with the younger characters. And I really enjoyed Hope’s reunion with Roman, Steve and Kayla, and that Hope hasn’t dropped her suspicions about Doug the III. It’s too bad that she’s leaving though, without any resolution to all of this. Hope getting in touch with her brother after so many years was actually kind of nice. And, we got an update about Harris lol Hope saying goodbye to Julie was really sweet too, and I like that she put Doug the III on blast. He’s ok so far, both the character and the actor. And he does seem to work very well with SSH. I just hope they don’t ruin him. And of course, Chad had to look all hot when he was comforting Cat. Not that I’m complaining lol but i still feel that any chance that this pairing had was ruined already because of all this crap with Cat pretending to be Abigail. It was a very bad start that seemed to handcuff both characters and their relationship. And whoever said it on here is correct; it is like AnnaLynne McCord was set up to fail. Speaking of handcuffed possible pairings, you could say the same thing about JJ/Gabi. Their scenes were nice and I like that they’re on their way to reuniting, but the dangling plot line of Stefan leaving is hurting them. Maybe it would have better if Stefan had actually left on his own, still angry at Gabi and if Vivian had nothing to do with it. I like that JJ still has reservations about Cat though. That could actually be a good way to cause problems for him and Gabi. Both cliffhangers were really good too. It was definitely a good hook to get people to watch tomorrow. And of course, Clyde’s fake name would be George Hazzard. How Ron-like. Btw, if the ISA can figure out Clyde’s location, can’t they just send somebody to finally kill his ass? 😂😂

I admit, I would probably like this storyline of Carter taking over Forrester and Carter and Hope’s relationship if there were any kind of stakes and build up to it. But with the way Brad writes, everything will probably be fine, and Carter will be back in everyone’s good graces by Spring. Btw, where the hell is RJ? The only biological Logan and Forrester that’s (I think) still on the canvas should be a part of this feud.
