date: Friday, October 10, 2025 | Teresa Zimmerman | Steven Williford Pamela is back! Yay! Now we can have a super gossipy chat going on! I love it. A nice kiki. Uh-oh, the child bride is even more bratty this morning than she was yesterday. Ugh. Desperation stinks. Eva really thinks Jan and Mona will help her when it comes to Dana? I do not think so! Tomas, duck for cover! This one could get very, very messy! And not him truly thinking about what Dana is saying. I mean, yes, he should be with Eva over that other snotty bitch, but that should not come from the psychotic Dana. Not step-daddy Andre getting the second degree from step-son-in-law Jacob. Whew. That was a whiplash of that. Hayley is obsessed with Bill's non-existent E.D., when she refuses to see she is not the woman that he wants. Accept it. It was bound to happen. Good on Mona for standing her ground where Dana is concerned and siding with Nicole. But Ms Jan has other ideas. I really wish Jacob would listen to his WIFE, whom he claims to love, because it is very evident she does not want to keep this baby. Jan is not taking Dana's nonsense. There was some power and intent behind that "sit down". I do wonder if Dana's emotions are real or if it is some kind of act to ensure Jan is back in her life. Oops... now it is time for Tomas to tell off Hayley for her own deceit. Take the out, Andre. Take it and go get your true love: Ashley! Notes: So nice to have a breakdown written by a competent, talented writer. Made all the difference in the world for today's episode. Nice use of "E.D." for erectile dysfunction. I see enough of those commercials all of the time. Let's talk about it! The music in Orphey Gene's sounds so familiar today! Sounds like the instrumental to "Rescue Me" by Fontella Bass.

As stated in today's episode, Dani said it to Hayley.

@carolineg One of your main problems is on, totally up their five-day-per-week total. 🤣

date: Thursday, October 9, 2025 | Jamey Giddens, Danielle Paige | Michael V. Pomarico Your what, Bill? Your wife? Yes, Dani should still be your wife. Remember that, especially when the child bride continues to whine non-stop. Joey, you are still trying to cover. And it will crack, eventually. I can appreciate the sexual connection that Andre and Dani continue to share. It is healthy to have that kind of appetite, but they will not last together. At all. Speaking of the child bride... Bill Hamilton, you are about to be whined at. Grab the pacifier. I would be moved by Joey's story if he were not the puppetmaster in charge of how Donnell and Vanessa are feeling right now. Okay, Deadbeat, you are paying attention... but this absolutely does not fix all the wrongs you have done. Anita calls it like she sees it, and I appreciate that. She is intuitive, and that comes with age. Are we making breakthroughs with Bradley and the deadbeat? Interesting. Uh-oh. Bill. Why would you cite the child bride's one friend (who works for you) knowing she could easily call to confirm/deny your story? The continued shade Dana's "shouse" and Ted get from the Dupree women is hilarious to me. And get it, Anita! Good to know there is heat in your marriage. FIVE?! Damn. Anita Williams was a wanted woman. Good on you, Anita! Get it! One date night and Bradley is ready to welcome the deadbeat back home? Dang. That was easy. Vanessa is going through the motions of her children growing up, drinking alcohol, etc. It is real. Dani is enjoying her show of the child bride acting like a pestilent child. "Oh, she projects!" Ha. Hilarious. Not Nicole semi-stomping on Bradley's made-up mind, but I absolutely understand why she is. It is caution where her son is concerned. And maybe, just maybe, it may help her with her own mind regarding Ted. Notes: The writer2 has clearly taken notice from the writer, and it is so off-putting. Three out of three horrible breakdowns. Hoping he is the next to G-O, GO! Bring in someone capable, please. The continued sexual innuendos we get in the scripts are excellent. No other daytime soap is giving that to us. At all. The continued use of modern technology (FaceTime/location pinging) is brilliant. And it is not some fake, in-universe platform. It is the iPhone. Smart. The extra at Orphey Gene's tossing her hair and swirling her tea is working for the camera today; she knew it was on her, and she made sure to give it her all. Love that for her. The continued, ongoing work between Lauren Buglioli (Vanessa) and Alex Cheeks (Donnell) is outstanding. Kudos to Kim Coleman for this casting of these two roles. Brilliant. Seamless. Outstanding. The scripted callback to the "the past is prologue" line was brilliant. Absolutely outstandingly brilliant. And even better? Paige did not write the original line, so it shows that the scriptwriters are paying attention! Excellent.

The beach house (where Liam should still be living, mind you) looks excellent on camera.

Yes, they have. It is very sad to see. But I am glad he has suffered a consequence (via this arrest) for his addictions and his behaviour as a result of those addictions.

She returned on August 6 and September 30, but episodes are only available beginning with October 7, due to licensing rights with Paramount+. So, start with October 7.

Everything just looks more modern and updated; the lighting also is not as harsh. Yes, I have some minor gripes with [some] sets, but it has nothing to do with the design team itself.

Jane Ellio was a highlight, as usual.

Duly noted; will do better tomorrow, haha.

This makes me so happy, especially considering how this show started. Drew is such a breath of fresh air to daytime/morning talk.

You are welcome; you didn't mention Britt prior (unless I missed it). I will be more mindful of this! 😉

@carolineg Today is safe. 🥰

date: Wednesday, October 8, 2025 | Christopher Dunn, Jazmen Darnell Brown | Phideaux Xavier Drake hopped out of his seat as if he saw a ghost; he clearly knows Marcel and his connection to Joey. I would be running like a white ghost if I were him. Donnell and Vanessa are driving themselves crazy over Douglas' last moments (or what they believe them to be). My heart breaks for them as Joey looks on without a single care for what they are obviously going through. Bradley does not want the deadbeat to turn himself in, but maybe that is what he should be doing. The right thing after all. Not Dani and Nicole mocking Dani's liking of alcohol and the impulsive decisions that come with that. Hilarious. Poor Vanessa... she is driving herself absolutely mad, between the guilt over her final phone conversation with Douglas and the grief she is experiencing over losing her high school sweetheart and father of her children. The poor woman. Nicole needs to be honest with herself: yes, she is feeling some feelings for Carlton, but deep down she is still desiring a relationship with Ted, her husband. I can appreciate Bradley wanting to fight for his marriage, even though I do believe he deserves better. But if deadbeat wants to turn himself in, then let him do it. He is adamant about it. Free yourself of that misery. Well, there goes Joey, swooping right in to whisk Vanessa away ahead of Drake's arrival. You are not slick, Joey. Drake is trying to set up his exit alibi, but Joey is about to leave him out to hang high and dry. Donnell is on Drake's neck and he is not loosening the pressure. Not Donnell and Jacob walking in on Joey and Vanessa... I can guarantee this is going to be messy, messy, messy, and I cannot wait for it! Notes: Lauren Buglioli (Vanessa) and Alex Cheeks (Donnell) win it again for me. Both individually and collectively. They are putting the work in. Karla Mosley (Dani) brings a smile to my face when she is able to truly be playful with the scripts.
