Hopefully, Lucas retaliates against Sonny somehow. The writing for him, though it was a little better today, has been ridiculous. I did like seeing him save Marco though. And Marco did look hot at the end 😍😂😂 And yeah, Britt didn't "die" saving Joss. She died because Joss was too much of a selfish whore to help her.

Parker's a viable choice for Ari. And he does fit the older guy type that she prefers 😂😂 As for Doug III, the acting could have been better but I liked both the actor and the character too. And the story possibilities for him could have been endless. And to just have everything be wrapped so nicely and have him leave town looking like a loser feels like a letdown, to me. And maybe I'm overreacting about this, but that Doug's grandson. Part of his legacy. You think they'd care more about the character just for that alone. I felt a similar way about Dimitri actually. Stefano's oldest grandchild deserved a lot better than what he got too.

Lmaooooo Tomas is such a dumbass 😂😂😂 But I still like him and Eva together

Gotta say it again, poor Doug III. Even though that was a good slap 😂😂😂 It really is too bad that the new writers clearly had no interest because the character did have a lot of potential. The loan shark stuff wasn't that good but I was really enjoying all the conflict surrounding his relationships with the teens, particularly the Tate/Doug III feud, and the effects that he could have had on Holly/Ari's friendship. It all could have gone in so many different directions and could have played out for a long time. And like I said before, Doug's son and whatever family he might have had after he and Robert left Salem should be explored. I wish it had all worked out. Plus, Ari's related to like every other man in Salem. Who's she gonna be paired with now? Aaron? She'll eat him alive 😂😂 I was glad to see that Tate ripped Sophia for what she "did", but for him to roll over so easily made him look a little stupid. Maybe I would've liked it more if actions like that had often played more into Tate's character. But it was nice to see Brady comfort him again. And I am interested in seeing where all this is going to lead though. And Leo Howard actually did a pretty good job too. I'm also interested in seeing Gabi and Tony teaming up. It could make the messy Kiriakis/Dimera situation even messier than it already is. As for Xander/Sarah, their scenes today were like classic soap supercouple. Full of angst, but underneath, you could tell that they still love each other lol and it was great to see.

True, Leo needs to die. But Dimitri needs to come back to Salem to cause problems for Paul and Andrew 😂😂

I love those little Pizza Hut pizzas! 👍

The improved writing for Kayla continued today. I do love seeing her go head to head with EJ, and today was no different. Though the new writers don't seem to have much of an interest in Steve anymore, which is too bad, I appreciate what they have done for Kayla. She has such a stronger identity now. And I like how she was there for Sarah too. Speaking of Sarah, her and Javi were a nice surprise. I enjoyed their scenes and it has been really good to see them finally get Javi out of those bubbles with Leo, and with Rafe/Gabi. And he seems to have more of an identity under the new writers as well. Slowly, he's becoming more than just Leo's boy. Stephanie was a little boring at the beginning of the episode though. This book thing is still DOA to me, but she did seem a lot more interesting in her scenes with EJ. Her doing PR for the hospital could lead to something good happening. And I can't help but think that there did seem to be a little foreshadowing in the scene when Kayla learned that EJ was meeting with Stephanie. As for Daddy Tate and Grandpa Brady, neither of them seemed very bright today but I like how Brady comforted him but Tate was right to chastise himself lol and surprisingly, Brady did seem a little John-like in those scenes, which is definitely a good thing. Days really seems to be sticking with that, "we don't write for half couples" mandate, which is too bad, because I'd rather see any of these couplings than any one that involves Leo. If it were me, Leo would've been killed off and completely forgotten about already 😂 And this Gwen's return storyline would've been axed.

Gwen was able to get the inheritance from Dimitri's family. I guess, because of what he did to her. Dimitri is off somewhere his new bf, not caring about the money anymore. One of the many, many reasons why the Dimitri storyline was terrible. I guess it's possible, especially now since

While I didn't dislike the Ari/Holly kidnapping scenes today, I felt like the stakes needed to be a little bit higher for everyone involved. It was nice seeing Tate be the hero and save them, but I think him and Rafe needed to be in a little more danger before Ari and Holly were rescued. Maybe the loan shark should have had like some U/5 accomplice who tried to shoot Tate and Rafe or something. And the same could be said for Ari and Holly as well. What was the point of Ari getting hurt if she was ultimately going to be fine in the end? And, I also think Doug III should have been a part of this too. And, I still stand by what I said about Sophia and the baby. I also enjoyed Philip vs. Xander, and that today's fight involved Johnny. But I'm ready to move on to the next part of this storyline though. There were some hints of it today in Xander's scene with Gabi, but I'd like for them to finally kick it into high gear. And yeah, Gwen/Leo... Skip.

It makes you wonder how fierce the competition was that year... or if the voters just made another mistake 😂

The fact that she wasn't nominated for the scenes of Iris confessing everything to Mac was ridiculous.

That’s ok, so does this guy 😂😂😂😂😂😉

Time for the obligatory question! Who’s getting DID? 😂😂😂😂

Summerslam 2001 The Rock vs. Booker T for the WCW Championship Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. Kurt Angle for the WWF Championship The Undertaker & Kane vs. Diamond Dallas Page & Chris Kanyon in a Steel Cage Match for the WWF and WCW Tag Team Championships Jeff Hardy vs. Rob Van Dam in a Ladder Match for the Hardcore Championship

Hahaha yes. There really was no need for that, if you think about it. Plus, the absurdity of Leo being a juror at the trial of a man that he sexually harassed.

I hope they do. A revival of the genre would be wonderful. And besides, ABC Daytime is a mess anyway 😂

Too bad that it didn't work out for Doug III/Peyton

I love how she made clear that, despite not enjoying her time on Days, she did enjoy working with Drake 😊😊 And she's not exaggerating at all; they never knew what to do with Diana.

I'm guessing that this was another one of those typical Ron-Jamey, "Ooooh I know the history" storylines without them knowing all the details of the initial story or the characters. They did the same thing with Liz and Marie at Doug's funeral. Which is too bad because Doug's son/whatever family he might have had was a branch of the family that should have been explored at some point over the years. I don't remember Doug III saying anything about France, so I guess we just have to assume that Dougie/Charles moved back to the US at some point or married an American or something.

Tbf, I think we're all doing more looking than reading 😉😂😂

I like the new haircut 😉

He's looking good. Is this new?

So, I guess the rumors are true. Poor Doug III Looking forward to Johnny's trial though

Has it really been seven years? 😂
