I still canโt help but think that this was all Ron and Paula/Jeanne just decided to run with it. Maybe itโll improve over time

I wish the triangle with Philip was still going on with them. Maybe Days got a good deal ๐๐๐๐ He tried to relaunch Bella magazine

He had no chance of getting on The Sopranos ๐๐๐ Iโm in NYC, and I canโt help but wonder if NYC prosecutors, politicians, etc. ever felt the way that Laura did, back in the 80s-90s when they were taking down the mob. โOooh, donโt put John Gotti in prison. The guy who comes in after him might be worseโ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐

Happy 18th Birthday, Sophia! I like that Tate gave her a birthday party. And that Marlena counseled him about whether or not he has feelings for Sophia, and his relationship with Holly. I like how messy Tate is and I hope he continues to be messy. He just needs to have more argument/fight scenes with Doug III ๐๐ป Days just needs to work a little bit more on establishing better chemistry between Tate and Sophia, but I still think thatโs mostly due to Rachel Boyd. Sometimes, I think that Sophia might secretly be scheming, but with the way RB plays it, (if thatโs what theyโre going for), it doesnโt seem to be working. Tate was also really sweet and dorky during the party too ๐๐ The drug scenes didnโt do much for me though. I donโt mind that Kevin panicked and ran off with the drug once he heard Steve and Shawn coming, but I felt like that story was the weakest part of today. But I am interested in seeing what happens next. And I couldnโt help but laugh when I noticed that Steve and Shawn had matching jackets ๐๐๐ Btw, I see Mayor Price established a quid pro quo with Xander today lol I wouldnโt mind that being more than just a plot point. It could lead to some pretty good drama if itโs handled correctly. And it would be a lot better than Xander declaring war on Sweet Bits/Chanel and Felicity. And Stephanie, finally having her mother to confide in about her life, her relationship with Alex, etc. has been one of the best things about the Paula/Jeanne episodes. The book thing still seems very Ron/Jamey-like though, mostly because itโs so centered around Alex, sort of like how GH used to make storylines about Liz all about Finn or Franco ๐คฎ๐คฎ Hopefully, Stephanie talks to Kayla about the book. Iโd like to hear more of her perspective on it. I also like that Kayla and Marlena were there for each other as well. These are such better ways to use all three of them. And, we got an update about John ๐ฅ One other thing Iโve noticed about the Paula/Jeanne episodes (except for the ones that are worked on by Jamey) is that theyโre longer than Ron episodes. Episodes usually clock in at around 40-41 minutes now, as opposed to 35-37, or as short as 31. I like that.

He was part of the Last Blast crew. And he dated Mimi for a while. Though I would love for him to save Javi from Leo ๐๐

I kinda like that Rachel's not really a demon anymore. Kristen's daughter or not, it wasn't necessary for her to be like that. And just like with GH, we all know that Ron thinks it's funny to write the kids as nasty, obnoxious little sh*ts ๐๐

Either him or Doug III. Those are the only guys in town that she's not related to ๐ He goes to the same tanning salon as his brother, Rex ๐ That could be a pretty good addition to this storyline

Even under the new writers, Jamey episodes are the shortest and the weakest A lot of people were unnecessarily clowny and bitchy today. There was a lot of fluff and filler too. And the dialogue was a littleโฆ ehhh as well. But welcome back, Kevin! Itโs been a long time lol his return still seems really random but I donโt mind it. Philipโs actions make sense to me based on everything thatโs happened to him lately and it could possibly set up more tension between him and Xander/Alex. And I wouldnโt mind seeing him and Kevin team up. I thought the actor did a good job too. Too bad that they couldnโt get Robert Benvenisti back though. I didnโt realize it in 2001 but he was hot ๐๐๐ And, we got the word that Arianna wants to come home. Iโm looking forward to that, and seeing her relationships with Gabi, Marlena, etc. on display and I hope that As for Rachelโs birthday partyโฆ was Days hinting at something that weโve been speculating about since EJ was shot?

Wait, what? So, Martinโs not running for President anymore? Just like that? I didnโt expect this storyline to be long term but I wouldโve liked to see it play out for a little while longer, or at least until Martinโs secret was revealed. And definitely not fade out with a whimper. Sort of like Naomiโs lawsuit against Billโs firm; what was the point of it all if it was just gonna wrapped up so easily and (probably) forgotten about? Eva is still the breakout character though. Iโm looking forward to seeing where she goes from here with everyone, especially if the twist that weโre all suspecting turns out to be true. And I did find the gambling storyline interesting finally, now that we know Joeyโs endgame. Iโd like to see it play out and to see what happens to everybody involved in it. As for Derek/Ashleyโฆ I wonder how it wouldโve played out if they actually had cast Mike Manning as Derek. Yeah, the writing isnโt there but I imagine that Derek would have more of a personality lol and I also imagine that it wouldโve made Ron Carlivatiโs head explode ๐๐๐๐ Ben Gavin did look hot though

So, Roman admitted that everything he did was to protect Johnny. I like that. It adds another dynamic to this storyline. And itโs also a much better use of the character of Roman. Heโs been stuck in the Pub for too long lol Iโm also really liking the way that Roman and Kateโs relationship has been written lately. As for Josh Taylorโs voiceโฆ no comment ๐๐๐ And speaking of relationships, Iโve also been seeing improvements in the relationships between Johnny and Paulina as well. I enjoyed their scenes today. They really feel more like an actual mother in law and son in law. Iโm cringing a little at the way that Paulina wouldโve been written had Ron stayed on a little longer. This type of writing is the exact thing that the character of Paulina needed, especially for a storyline like this. I am a little intrigued with the idea of EJ and Xander going head to head over buying the hospital too, mostly because of how it could drive other storylines, couples, etc.,like EJ and Belle. Him basically using Belle as his own personal fixer, both with Johnny and the hospital board could lead to something interesting happening in the future. And Philip, doing whatever he can in order to get back in Xanderโs good graces is a good addition to this storyline as well. Btw, I donโt dislike it at all but I still canโt believe that theyโre And yeah, sorry, I know that Days means well but I think theyโre making a little too much out of this Xander/Felicity thing. But Xander and Sarah were sweet today. Iโm looking forward to seeing everything between them get blown to hell. Seriously, one of the worst, if not the worst, team in soap history.

He joined Julian in Bermuda when he getting a divorce from Ivy. And, was the one who tricked Theresa and Julian in to believing that they had gotten married there. That would be nice. That was such a good book, and it was too bad that the show retconned it so much. I still have my copy somewhere.

I can't help but think that this was a Ron/Jamey plot, that Paula/Jeanne just decided to run with. Hopefully, it'll be written better than what we've had to endure previously. Roman runs it, and she helps. Interesting. I felt a similar way every time Ben called Charlie, 'Chuck' ๐๐

ARTICLE: 'Beyond the Gates' Renewed For Season 2 at CBS
Great news! And, with all the talk about how BTG has helped raise CBS Daytime overall, maybe they'll or the other networks will get inspired. BTG got justice for ATWT, maybe it's time for GL, AMC, OLTL, etc. to get some justice as well.

Doug IIIโs first day of work. Hope he does a good jobโฆ or that Tate tries to sabotage him somehow ๐๐ His scenes with Holly were nice though. Theyโre sweet together and I understand why some people think that they have more chemistry than Tate/Holly do. And I liked that Doug III opened up to her about his past. Maybe that could lead to something good happening in the future. I also enjoyed Roman and Kate, and how theyโre both being tied into EJโs shooting. The mystery of it all is really compelling. I donโt think Roman is the shooter though either. I didnโt have much sympathy for Kristen though. She has no one to blame for Rachelโs problems than herself. But at the same time, Iโm really surprised that Days actually remembered the Alex/Kristen fling. I thought Ron had erased that from existence. Iโm not shipping them at all, but Iโm definitely shipping a permanent end to Brady/Kristen but after today, Iโm not so sure about that either. And, Johnny and Chanel were still great together ๐๐๐

Susan named her son after her father, Richard, and they called him Dickie, for short. David had bought Dickie a play swing but it was too big for him. One day, while David was babysitting, he put Dickie in the swing, took his eyes off of him for a few seconds and he fell out of the swing, hit his head and died. Susan was so devastated that she shot and killed David only like a few episodes later.
