So, Kevin is forced as much as Leo is? 😂 It hasn’t worked since about 2019 lol I liked Leo when he first came on. I thought it was refreshing and something different to have a gay villain. But now, after everything that’s been written for him, I’m just done. I’m curious though, how do you think Greg is at fault too?

I’m not really looking forward to Definitely. On some level, I do feel a little sorry for Greg Rikaart because it’s not his fault that so many fans hate Leo. Ron and his writing is to blame

F*ck off, Kristen. I understand her doing what she can to try and get Brady back, even though at this point she really does need to get a clue. But there’s no reason for her to be such an annoying pain in the ass. Sarah could have gotten motivated to try and walk all on her own. And Kristen acting like she was marking her territory with Ava was a little unnecessary too. I am looking forward to Brady and Ava a little though and the effect that it’s going to have on Kristen. With any luck, this’ll be the thing that forces her to get over Brady for good. And yeah, I do agree with Ava; Tate is a bit of a jackass lol Speaking of Tate, I liked his scenes with Holly too. The two of them dancing together was really sweet. And it was nice seeing them act like a normal couple, even though I’m still hoping that Sophia gets back at the two of them somehow. I mean, I understand everything that Tate went through and the mistakes that he made. It is in character for him to be a little stupid lol but it’s still messed up. Sophia deserved better. Maybe Aaron could be better lol even though I don’t really seem him and Sophia as a couple either. But I liked their scenes and that they each had someone to confide about their problems. Btw, how can Mark be charged in Salem for a crime that took place in Paris? With any luck, he’ll be out of jail soon and his own storylines can continue #Mavi 😂😂 Sarah confiding her fears about Xander and his guilt, to Maggie was really good as well. Xander feeling responsible for what his mother did could lead to something interesting happening, especially once Sarah starts walking again.

And that’s what gets annoying to me, after a while. And why I suggested that they should have cast a younger actor to play Leo back in 2018. That way, him being young and immature would make sense. And of course, the way he treated Gwen and other people annoys me too 😂😂 They could have but Leo would often ruin it 😂😂😂 For example…

Sounds kinda hot actually 😂😂 It’s just Leo, ugghhhh

There are a lot of signs that suggest it lol If everything’s written like a bigger than usual joke, if the episode is short but still feels rushed, if there’s unnecessary fluff and flashbacks, if people are drunk, horny, or acting out of character, if someone’s explanation/justification is weak or stupid, if historical facts are randomly mentioned, if there’s a *wink wink* to a cancelled soap, if Leo’s in drag, if someone gets handcuffed to a bed, if The Real Housewives or Drag Race is mentioned… Rushing something always ruins it.

Three consecutive episodes of Leo 🤮🤮🤮 Does Marlena even get that many consecutive episodes? Honestly, I only see this as more proof that if Ron really wanted something done, he could get it done no matter what and that every excuse we ever got was bullshit. Today was a bit of an improvement over yesterday and Monday though. The script was clearly in the hands of a real writer. Even the dialogue itself seemed more intelligent and mature. I’m still liking Rafe and Jada’s storyline, even though I wish he had stayed on as a detective, at least for a little while. That way this all could be built up for a while and culminate into something explosive. I also wouldn’t mind it if he sued the city either. JJ and Gabi’s scenes were really nice too. I like the way that their relationship is being built up. The two of them being the decoys in Chad and Cat’s plan to get Clyde could be really interesting as well. And that could be a good way to bring the two of them back together. Hopefully, they’ll somehow weave EJ back into this as well. Btw, where was Cat going with that Snooki poof? 😂😂 And, WTG, Javi!! You can do so much better than that selfish, washed up old douche! Contrary to how Javi described Leo today, that’s exactly what he is. It sucks that this is probably only gonna be temporary, but it was great seeing Javi tell Leo off and seeing him walk away like an idiot. Javi/Al Calderon deserves a lot better than a pairing with Days’ worst character. The only thing I’ll give the Javi/Leo pairing is that it’s not as utterly repulsive as Dimitri/Leo. That was, hands down, one of the worst and grossest pairings I’ve ever seen. And yeah, if they’re gonna keep writing Leo as though he’s this young, irresistible twink, they really needed to (sorry, Greg Rikaart) cast someone a lot younger.

Well, Texas and Georgia get very hot. He may have to 😂😂😂

😉 Just remember to let him win 😂😂

Kerry, Javi, Dimitri, Craig, maybe Mark, almost Sonny. Who knew that Leo was the most desirable man in Salem? 😂😂 I’ll have to pay closer attention now 😂

Yes 😍 That, and the Beyond Salem style What? I was talking about watching TV 😂😂😂😉

Another lousy Jamey episode. And once again, way too many flashbacks for an only 32 minute episode. Ron was fired. Can this even worse, waste of life finally be fired too? I might care about this cupcake thing if it wasn’t written like such a big, stupid joke, but just like with Biscuit-gate, I don’t. It’s such a waste of everybody’s talent and makes a mockery of the hard work that they put in every single day. I don’t really care about the new Lady Whistleblower spoiling Body&Soul either, even though I wouldn’t mind if Leo accusing Javi pushes him into someone else’s (Mark, Kerry, anybody) arms. And I wonder if Ron cared as much as Leo did about his Days work being spoiled. Javi’s shirt was nice though. And actually, so was Roman’s. Those are things that I would wear. And btw, me every time that Javi propped Leo

Just like Peter Porte, and almost like with Zach Tinker; ruined because of this pathological obsession with Leo. This is why people get fired lol Maybe Javi will run into Kerry, at some point… even though his taste is a little questionable too 😂😂

Nice to hear his voice again. He’s looking good too, even though my favorite Chandler hairstyle was the 2021-2022 style 😊 And I was a Nickelodeon kid as well! I’d love to watch with him! 😉😂😂

IIRC, it seemed like they were teasing Cass/MJ a little at that time too.

When it comes to launching new soaps, maybe things have changed in 25 years lol

It sounds like Doug’s death is going to take place in the Thanksgiving episode (11/28)

An unbiased, unobsessive soap writer would definitely do that because that’s the only way this mess could work. And yes, agreed that Leo would be gone on day one if I were writing it too. It’s not gonna work lol Hell, Leo’s been forced so much at this point, that it probably wouldn’t work even if fans liked him

I don’t mind the age difference, despite how obvious it is 😂 It’s just Leo. This character will never not make my skin crawl Or that she didn’t realize that demoting someone who came back from medical leave is illegal 😂

Yeah… we really should’ve gotten some follow up with Rafe/Jada, Tate/Holly and the rest of last week’s storylines. And we should have seen the Johnny/Chanel/Joy dinner and (I really don’t like saying this) Javi and Leo at Small Bar too. It almost felt like there was an episode missing. I’m glad the spoilers warned us about these next few episodes but still… ugghhhh I think today was a Jamey episode. There was so much pointless filler and in jokes. Btw, wtf is it with this guy and vomiting? Hopefully, the breakdown writers on Beyond the Gates aren’t allowed to run wild like this. And y’all have been warned about poor Javi, even though he did look hot today. The character was ruined right out of the gate. Plus, it seems like they’re gonna rush his storyline too. I will say that the cupcakes looked delicious though, even though this’ll probably just end up being a typical Jamey lazy retread of Biscuit-gate. And despite what Abe and Kate and everybody said today, I imagine that if Body&Soul was real, SoapTwitter would be ripping it to pieces. On a soap, you don’t recast the long running lead if the actor becomes unavailable. Especially with some random people like Bonnie or Hattie.

Yeah, Gio definitely got lost in the shuffle this year. The actor really should have been a recast Cam because he is good, it would’ve kept him more grounded, and it would’ve given him an actual purpose, rather than just popping in from episode to episode.

There’s long days and then there’s Passions days lol I don’t mind long days, especially like during sweeps, or a day when multiple storylines are meant to reach their climax or culmination. Like posters have said, it allows you to play every beat. But I don’t like Passions days, where a day starts in the summertime but ends with characters preparing for Thanksgiving.

It always makes me want to do the exact opposite lol

Kinda dreading Monday through Wednesday lol I forget how they got together but they broke up because Philip cheated with Melanie. Stefano (or EJ) also had her kidnapped as a way of getting to Philip and the Kiriakises.

I wouldn’t mind that. I just don’t want every single thing to revolve around them. I don’t think that’s ever worked on any soap.
