Here's a detailed report on Dianne Feinstein from the San Francisco Chronicle: https://www.sfchronicle.com/politics/article/dianne-feinstein-retires-17772199.php

The show tweeted February 14: countdown until the Bo and Hope epic love story returns. with a gif saying 30 days I guess March 14 is the day! Meanwhile, Miranda Wilson tweeted that Megan Hathaway returns Feb. 24 so I guess we'll get a couple of weeks of buildup before Bo & Hope.

Adding onto that, Stefan's strategy is to use the drugged drinks to make EJ become erratic and disoriented so that EJ cannot function properly running DiMera ... with Stefan's final goal for the DiMera board to decide EJ is incompetent or unreliable - and oust him from being co-CEO. Then Stefan would become the sole CEO.

Kristen tried to blackmail EJ that she would reveal to Stefan ... that EJ had learned a long while ago (but had kept silent) about what Rolf had done to Stefan. But instead of submitting to the blackmail, EJ told Stefan the truth, so that Kristen would have nothing to blackmail EJ about. After telling Stefan the truth, EJ explained to Stefan that it was just business, wanting control of DiMera, etc, and nothing personal. Stefan said he understood that perspective and they looked up at Stefano's portrait. Stefan said he'd forgive EJ, and they agreed to be partners as co-CEOs running DiMera. But ... after EJ left the room, Stefan said to himself that he'd get revenge on EJ for keeping silent all that time about what Rolf did. That's why Stefan is drugging EJ.

I realize nobody here is telling me to shut up. I wasn't addressing my comments to anyone in particular. My use of the quote feature might have made it seem that way, but it wasn't my intent. I was addressing my comments to society as a whole, in that society expects people to shut up about it. I was just venting in frustration.

I know you weren't directing that at me personally. But ... it's my opinion that that Luke and Laura should not have a 6-page spread. It might be absurd, but it's still my opinion. I don't have to accept it and move on. I can complain if I want to. I started watching GH in 1969. Yes I know this is all about show business popularity and how things work. I'm not surprised that they did this. But I don't have to like it. I won't discuss my personal details but there was someone in my life impacted by rape. And I don't have to shut up about this issue.

I have to keep reminding myself of the difference between Harris Michaels and Alan Harris. Harris Michaels, played by Steve Burton July 21, 1988 - Nov. 3, 1988 (13 episodes). During high school, Harris Michaels made a bet with his friends to see who could score with Eve Donovan first. After numerous dates, he began to develop genuine feelings for her but when Eve discovered the bet, she attempted to kill herself with sleeping pills. Horrified, Harris tried to apologize and make up for what he’d caused, but Eve never forgave him. July 2022: He resurfaced on Beyond Salem Two with Hope and Megan. https://www.soapsindepth.com/posts/days-of-our-lives/harris-michaels-on-days-of-our-lives-steve-burton Because his 1988 arc with Eve was only 13 episodes in high school, I guess they figured they could write him in any storyline for Beyond Salem. Alan Harris, played by Paul Kersey Sept, 14, 1993 - Feb. 7, 1995 (108 episodes) Alan tried to rape Carrie, and he did rape Sami. Sami shot him, aiming in a hurry, and the bullet happened to hit him in the crotch. Last known whereabouts was a prison hospital.

I couldn't figure out why the new trailer was so short, then I realized the time stamp had been set to start near the end. So I rewound and watched from the beginning. Looks really great! I'm excited for Sasha!

Thanks!

We knew that the Beyond Salem 2 storyline would continue on the main show, probably starting in March. Now it seems that it might start a week earlier, because one of the main BS2 characters begins appearing on the main show Friday Feb. 24. Just a suggestion... if anyone who hasn't watched Beyond Salem 2 yet, you could find it and watch it on Peacock. It's only five episodes. If you watch it now, you'll be caught up when they start continuing its storyline.

Re: above twitter thread posted by @Faulkner about how, even though halftime performers are never paid, the exposure at the halftime show brings an artist music profits in the long run ... That's interesting but ... I just saw this video by Luisa Kroll of Forbes magazine. She points out that Rihanna is a billionaire from her Fenty businesses. She said that when Forbes evaluated Rihanna's net worth, and income ....... the amount of money she's earned from music is negligible in comparison with her Fenty businesses. To the point that they don't even bother to count her music income when evaluating her! Her Fenty business is 50% owned by Rihanna and 50% owed by Bernard Arnault of LVMH. (Luisa Kroll went off on a tangent to say that Bernard Arnault is the richest person on the planet. And that Elon Musk was for a while but he isn't anymore and Arnault is again. Just ignore that.) The point is that Fenty is one of the most successful brands in the world. The youtube is mistitled "Why Rihanna won't get paid for the half time show". That title doesn't describe what's in the video. The video says nobody gets paid for the halftime show, and for her, it wouldn't matter because she's so rich anyhow. Kroll from Forbes said that Rihanna is the first billionaire to perform in the halftime show. She added that the halftime shows are produced by Jay-Z's business, and *he* is a billionaire. But Rihanna is the first person already a billionaire to perform in the halftime show. Her cosmetics business and other Fenty businesses are one of the most successful luxury brands in the world. Did you notice that Rihanna stopped for a second in the middle of her halftime set to refresh her makeup? That was about business and promoting her cosmetics line, LOL. Here's the Forbes video:

I panicked at the word "final" but then realized you meant finally! (whew!) Here are Jess, Lauralee and other cast throwing a football on the set Feb. 10th. (spoilerish about one person there): https://www.instagram.com/p/CoivKzIpm6a/

I think the writers rushed the breakup because

Rihanna's full superbowl halftime performance https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjBo--1n8lI ^ That's the official video on the NFL youtube channel. They won't allow it to be embedded but you can click to watch.

found some clips on twitter Ms. Justina Miles. Amazing ASL artistry!

Rihann's Superbowl show starts at about 10 minutes into this youtube. This version is in American Sign Language and the signing artist is amazing. Edit. It was on the fox sports youtube channel but they had it up only as live stream, and then they took it down. Glad I caught it.

Preview: Kyle/Summer, Ashley/Jack, Heather/Daniel ___ Promo: "Deal-maker or deal-breaker"

I agree with these points - I don't want this WTD storyline. But it's refreshing that Nick is figuring things out, instead of being his normal dumb self. LOL.
