I like how angsty everything was for Brady/Chloe/Xander/Sarah/Rex. They really should have played it as one big story involving all of them, instead of them all being in individual story bubbles until this point. And after today, I’m pretty convinced that there’s like a civil war in the writers room over Maggie 😂😂 Some want her as the villain, some want Alex as the villain. But either way, I’m still Team Maggie 👍 Do we know who made the decision yet?

😉 I’ll pass on the jalapeños 😂😂

Hmmm… nice 😂😂 You should post their pictures here when you remember 😂😂😂😂

I’m glad that the Horton dining room set is being used more. It should be a backdrop for scenes like Chad and Stephanie’s, were storylines could progress naturally. But I do think Stephanie kind of overdid it on the eye makeup 😂😂 I don’t really know what to make of Maggie and Alex’s scenes today, but I enjoyed them. There seems to be a kind of split with Alex, like half of the writing team wants to prop him and ruin countless characters to do it, while the other half wants to write him as the villain/grey character that he is. Am I wrong or has anybody else seen that too? Btw, the pizza that Steve and Kayla had today looked delicious. A lot of the food on Days has looked delicious lately 😂😂😂 And, agreed with Kayla that cold pizza is a great breakfast 👍

I see that B&B has become the Hallmark movie that GH was for a little while.

I’m still wondering who was the bonehead who thought that setting up so much of the Texas storylines on AW was a good idea. Was it Paul Rauch? Or somebody above him?

I guess he’s your favorite now 😍 But at least we know who would be playing Will in a Days porn parody 😂😂😂

I understand what people are saying about Portia, but goddamn, after yesterday, they’re really jumping through hoops to make a lot of people unlikeable on this show. That dialogue 🤢

So, it appears that fans of AW were not fans of the Texas crew 😂

I’m cringing already over all the *wink wink nod nods* they’re gonna throw at us

I don’t think he needs the clothes though 😂😂😂😍

I see they’re trying very hard to make us like Leo. They really aren’t going to let this character go no matter what. I can see why Gwen is so enamored with Dimitri though. He is quite the charmer. And he looked good today too 😂😂😂 Peter Porte does seem to have good chemistry with his scene partners and that’s one of the things that’s making this storyline interesting. The Julie/Eli/Gabi/Stefan fight was unnecessary. I thought we were passed all that crap. I can’t believe they rushed through so much storyline just to have Gabi/Stefan do absolutely nothing.

Did they really try to compare Ridge and Brooke’s relationship to the Colosseum? 😂😂😂

This Ned thinking he’s Eddie Maine stuff feels like a Ron Carlivati story. Austin and his pain in the ass cousin just need to go away. They have no purpose and this storyline isn’t going to give them one. I do like how messy this Portia/Curtis/Jordan/Zeke storyline is getting though.

Thanks!

Looking forward to see how AW fared in July, with that being the last month of 90 minute episodes and the beginning of all the Texas storylines.

Today had some really good family scenes. It was nice to see those bonds between everyone. It almost felt like classic soap. Salem actually felt like a community again. But at the same time, I feel like this crap with the crazy nurse diminishes it all somehow. Even if it was taken seriously and not written like some cringey, campy joke, I would still feel this way. Btw, is Bill Hayes now the oldest actor to ever work on a soap?

On Days, the week of the 26th was the week that DJ died.

Just as long as Steffy tells Liam to get lost… 😂😂😂

I'd probably feel similar if she was shoved down our throats as much as Joss is 😂😂

Interesting how Nina Laemmle was always blamed for the massacre. When we were discussing late 70s-early 80s Days a while back in the classic Days thread, it got pretty clear that all the firings and all the changes were spearheaded by Al Rabin. They started as soon as he got there. Luckily, he was able to turn the show around after all this. And was able to last through most of the 80s.

Hahaha nah. Gwen and Dimitri just started. This'll probably be Monday

What a great opening scene 😍😂😂 I'm glad everybody finally made it to Rome. It really is such a beautiful city. I just hope that we, the fans, aren't let down again.

I'd kind of would like to find out 😂😂

Were any of the soaps picketed during the last strike?
