No, but I think anything would’ve been better than what he got today

I agree with that. He did great, acting wise. But the writing made Lucas look so weak and pathetic. Begging and pleading when honestly, he should’ve pulled a gun or something on Sonny and Jason.

Not for nothing, but would the ratings or whatever, suffer that much if Mo was fired and Sonny was finally killed off? I’m tired of him. And, this writing for Lucas is pitiful. He/Van deserve so much better than this.

So, Holly and Ari now know the truth about Doug III. And while I like the story, and like that it's not being written like such a big joke, I feel like they missed the mark a little by sidelining Doug III's feelings for Holly and the Tate/Doug III feud. They should have had him try to be a good person, try to be there for Holly and protect her from the loan sharks, etc. while at the same time that he was sleeping with Ari and trying to protect her too. And tying that into Tate and Sophia's mess could have been really good. Honestly, what was the point of possibly hinting at a triangle/quad if Holly and Ari weren't going to be angry with each other once they found out the truth? And, what was the point if Tate/Holly were reunited before the truth came out? They made Doug III such a complex character but then didn't really follow up on it. And I see Doug III was taking after his Aunt Hope today by posing a Salem Inn waiter lol I'm not sure about him stealing the necklace from Gwen but not getting it back to Julie though. Speaking of Gwen, I'm not sure about her moving into the Dimera mansion either. Her and Kristen's reunion did absolutely nothing for me. And yeah... Belle's a dumbass 😂 But I am interested in seeing what happens between her and EJ once everything with Johnny is resolved.

Whew… that was rough. Brandon Claybon seemed to make a lot of weird choices yesterday. In Martin’s scenes with Bill, it was almost like he was playing it more as sassy instead of angry or worried, which was definitely not a good choice for this story. Timon Kyle Durrett was acting circles around him. And so was Mike Manning. Speaking of Mike, I wouldn’t mind if they went there with Smitty and Jacob but I also enjoy them as friends. There’s like a parallel between as Dupree outsiders. And for the first time in a long time, I actually found Ashley interesting in her scenes with Hayley.

All that rent money that he’s not paying Rafe goes a long way 😂

Wouldn’t it be nice if this prompts Lucas to turn on his douchy family and try to take down Sonny 😂😂

It wasn’t easy 😂 But at the time, we had no idea that the worst was yet to come. Agreed. Now that it’s looking like Sarah might start scheming with Philip, both she and Xander seem to be on an even footing, with writing not blatantly biased in favor or against either one of them.

Not much happened today, but I was liking the build up to Tate, Holly and Ari going to the lake, and I wish that it had played out for a little longer. It almost feels like a classic teen summer story lol I still say that this would've been the perfect time for Sophia to give birth and leave the baby at the firehouse though, rather than when Days made it happen. Her anger, hurt, etc. at Tate and Holly would've been the perfect motivation for her to do what she did. And, I think it would've been a better use of Sophia as well, rather than the way she was used today. Sophia finding out that Javi and Leo had the baby did absolutely nothing for me. Btw, with all this talk about first labors going on for hours, how did Sophia give birth in like 10 minutes 😂😂😂 And yeah, poor Doug III. He really should have been more involved with the teens today rather than Leo, especially since it's his crap that's causing problems for all of them. There are plenty of other ways that he could've found out about Gwen having Julie's necklace. I really wish they hadn't basically dropped Doug III's feelings for Holly and the Tate/Doug III feud. I also enjoyed today's round of Xander vs. Sarah. I was a little surprised that Xander brought Sarah's history of mental illness, but I didn't really mind it. Like I said last week, the new writers really seem to be going there when it comes to arguments now instead of just scratching the surface and I'm glad to see it. The messier, the better 😂 I'm glad Maggie was there to comfort her too.

Emma’s just a better character. In every way 😂😂😂

2023 was a very tough year for Days 😂

Now, how could I have forgotten to mention that? 🤔😂😂😂

Kitty Kat, we all wish something was going on between Smitty and Jacob 😉😂😂😂 I am enjoying Chelsea and Madison's story and their relationship, but at the same time, I feel like they're moving too fast with this storyline. Especially now with Alison being a part of it. Sort of like with Leslie; once the climax takes place, what happens next? And sorry y'all, I couldn't help but be on Tracy and Sharon's side a little bit today 😂😂

Damn. You weren't kidding 😂😂😂

Finally, Laura was used effectively! Her scenes with Rocco today practically made up for that Sonny BS that we all had to endure this week 😂 Idk who's side to take in the Trina/Kai breakup because I like them both lol and because all this Drew stuff is too blatant but I wouldn't mind seeing Trina get closer to Gio in the aftermath of this breakup. And, I will always be Team Emma over Team Whore. I hope Emma destroys her!

👍

Eric Martsolf submitted the scene where Brady confessed to Tate that he ran over Sarah. Greg Rikaart submitted Leo's confrontation with Diana in prison

Good song! 😉👍

Sounds like it's gonna be a good week! And hopefully we get a good Tate/Doug III brawl 👊😂😂 But at the same time, while all this is happening, this would've been the perfect time for Sophia to give birth. And also would've given her a very good reason to leave the baby at the firehouse.

David Jacobs once gave an interview where he said that during Season 1, fans were basically asking, "If this is a spinoff of Dallas, then where's your JR?" Which was one of the things that led us to Abby 😂

Let's ask Patrick Mulcahey 😂😂

There did seem to be a bit of a shift in quality today that I enjoyed. The music cues were a little off in several scenes though. The Philip/Xander scenes were not written like a big joke today, which was definitely the right decision. This is how it should always be written. Their feud needs to be taken seriously, because writing it in any other way hurts the story and every character in it, IMO. Philip bringing up Victor's feelings about Xander is such an important beat of this storyline and I always enjoy seeing it brought up. It helps add more fire to their feud. The same can be said for Sarah possibly teaming up with Philip to take Xander down, even though he shut her down again. I also enjoyed today's round of Xander vs. Maggie too, even though I thought Xander was overreacting a little. But at the same time, I appreciate that the new writers really seem to be going there when it comes to high stakes emotional drama. They're doing more than scratching the surface, like Ron often did, and I love seeing it. And that was reflected perfectly today with Xander and Maggie. They really went there today with the two of them and I hope we get another round soon lol. And, we got an update about Melissa too. Johnny and Chanel were really sweet too. I love how he was there for her, like she's always been there for him. Belle/EJ were kinda boring though lol

I hate to say this, but I'm really starting to believe that Mo purposely uses his bipolar disorder as an excuse to run GH like it's his own personal kingdom

Can someone please tell me why they're also ruining with Gio with this nonsense? 🤮
