Ah, man, that is so cool! This was a great clip. I remember watching it on YouTube many years ago and I was really sad when it got taken down. Fortunately I have the clip backed up in one of my laptops and some of my hard drives somewhere. I really wish that you didn't cut off the clip at the part where Lee basically loses her crap and starts trashing the room. That scene is so hilarious! Hopefully somebody finds that part and posts it on YouTube someday. I'm also going to go see if maybe I have that clip downloaded and backed up somewhere too.

I would've been perfectly fine with Theresa using Alex to make Brady jealous and then maybe along the way she develops real feelings for him and she becomes torn between the two. If Ron had just focused on that, it would've made for a decent story. But by reverting Theresa back into a scheming gold-digger, he not only created an extremely convoluted story with a bunch of holes that made no sense but he also threw away whatever character development she did manage to have. Anyways, at this point it doesn't even matter. Theresa is going to be around for at least another month or two and when she's eventually exposed, she's going to be out of the show and there is no guarantee that she's ever coming back for the foreseeable future, if ever. Brady is probably going to end up hating her forever and Tate might be more than happy to never see his mom ever again, especially after learning about all of the horrible things that she has done over the years. We still don't really know just how involved she was in Tate's upbringing and what his childhood was really like before he got SORASed. For all we know Kimberly might've been the one who took care of Tate most of the time and Theresa might have been a mostly neglectful and distant mother that was solely focused on work and a never ending string of men.

This actually would've been a lot better if he had actually teamed up with Vivian and they would've schemed to acquire the Kiriakis fortune while basically using Alex as a patsy. Vivian actually has a well-documented history with Victor and she would've had a much stronger and plausible motivation to go after the fortune and try to oust Maggie from the family. Theresa could've been in an entirely different storyline where she would've tried to reconnect with Brady while dealing with Tate's teenage angst and his puppy love story with Holly. It's all just so stupid and dumb. I won't be surprised if everyone forgot this story even happened a year from now; I don't see too many long term ramifications playing out aside from maybe Theresa going to prison for a while and the entire town washing their hands of her permanently, including Brady, Maggie, Alex and Tate. Also, Xander doesn't seem to care about the fortune anyway and he never even had a great relationship with Victor while he was alive, so what exactly is going to change for him? Also we're obviously supposed to feel sorry for Alex for being screwed over by Theresa and Konstantin but he's such an awful and obnoxious scumbag that nobody cares what happens to him and many fans are awaiting his downfall.

I would love for Ron to write his female characters with some degree of human decency and not as outright shrews or psychopaths but I really don't think he's even capable of that.

Well that would definitely explain why so many female characters on this show are god-awful.

Oh don't worry; Theresa's day of reckoning is coming. She's going to be exposed sooner or later. Hopefully at the very least she's getting prison time and is sent away for a very long time and with pretty much the entire town disowning her. But if she does decide to go on the run, hopefully she doesn't come back for a very long time, if ever. I think like they did with Sloan the authorities are going to put out a warrant for Theresa's arrest and that's when she decides to leave and go on the run.

My God Theresa continues to get worse with each passing day. I really can't wait for her to get her comeuppance and for Brady, Alex, Tate and the rest of the town to completely wash their hands of her and have nothing to do with her ever again. She is so vile; it's pretty obvious at this point that she will never truly change and she just isn't capable of it. Whatever; I hope after she leaves town she dies off-screen somehow and Ron won't have to write for her ever again if he doesn't want to because it's pretty obvious he hates writing for her.

I can't believe that they just threw Theresa and Brady together out of nowhere. This just feels like a plot point so that Brady would feel shocked and horrified by Theresa's betrayal and the two of them are going to be at odds again. Also I won't be surprised if Theresa never has scenes with Tate ever again. I think Ron wants Theresa to be nothing more than an unrepentent golddigger.

If his writing is as bad as it was before the strike, it's probably only a matter of time before many people start tuning out again. I really don't see myself sticking around for long. I think I'm pretty much done with this show.

Well, it's still pretty early, but I have a feeling that as the summer progresses, we'll get a better idea of what her exit story is ultimately going to be. And I still think that Tate is going to be extremely upset with Theresa and he's going to decide to cut all ties with her altogether along with Brady, Alex, Maggie, and possibly the large majority of the cast. But if for some inexplicable reason Theresa does end up sticking around beyond the summer, she might end up staying near the DiMera orbit especially if she remains a villain for the foreseeable future, (probably forever). She's going to need some allies especially if she's going to possibly lose Brady and Tate forever anyway. On the other hand, I hope the rest of the good people of Salem are on to whatever future schemes she has and they don't somehow get dumbed out just to give her an unfair advantage, but you never know with Ron though...

I definitely think that it's possible that Patrick Mulcahey was spearheading the whole Drew going into politics thing but I also think that Elizabeth Korte was also mainly driving the whole Drew/Nina affair because she seems like the type of person that would relish at the chance to humiliate and belittle Nina whenever possible. For Nina to just immediately jump into bed with Drew when she was so desperate to try to save her marriage to Sonny never really made sense to me; I think it would've been a lot better if Nina had actually walked in on Ava and Sonny kissing or otherwise being in a compromising position and she was so shocked and taken aback by the horrific betrayal that she decided to go running to Drew for comfort and that's when they ended up having sex. It was basically missing one or two steps. Then later Nina could confront her suspicions to Ava about her true relationship with Sonny and then that's when they would have that big blowout fight that ends their friendship. If Patrick really was intending to write an actual romance for Drew/Nina somewhere down the line, I would really like it if at some point Drew actually took the time to apologize to Nina for what he said about wanting to beat the living daylights out of her if she were a man and acknowledged that he basically went too far. That would go a very long way for me to eventually get around to accepting the relationship as legitimate, (begrudgingly). However, with Patrick now being gone, I suspect that now Elizabeth Korte is going to deviate back to her original storyline of Drew pursuing a sexual affair with Nina as part of an elaborate revenge scheme in order to bring her down once and for all, which would eventually lead to Nina's official departure from the show. And if my theory about what that Casey person on Twitter was alluding to is actually correct, then I'll bet my money that Nina is going to be gone by the very end of the summer and perhaps Willow might also play a role in her mother's eventual and final downfall. Just my two cents.

I'm pretty sure that Theresa is going to get exposed very soon. I don't know why she isn't getting exposed at the same time as Konstantin though, (does Days really think that viewers are invested in that dumb and boring love triangle with Theresa/Alex/Kristen? Also Brady really doesn't seem interested in either Kristen or Theresa anyway, so I don't really see what is there to milk or exploit. At any rate, I'm looking forward to seeing her entire life come crashing down and for her to lose everything forever and for her entire life to be permanently in shambles as she disappears into prison, never to be seen or heard from ever again.

So this is like what, the second or third time Nina's dad has been mentioned in the last couple of weeks when he hasn't been mentioned in well over a decade! And he has a name, (it's Dan; I know, pretty lame). So is there a particular reason for this or is this leading into any kind of story for Nina or what?

Nina was pretty awful when she was with Sonny but she really isn't that much better in Drew's orbit. I feel like the writers are only using her as a prop for Drew. And we all know that her latest plot to win back Willow is going to ultimately fail anyway, as always, because Willow will never love Nina the way Nina wants her to.

Wait, so Nina basically acting very promiscuous with Drew when she's never really acted that way before and exchanging sexual favors in a desperate attempt to rebuild any semblance of a relationship with her daughter is actually considered to be character-driven? Okay then...

I think the reason why Emily O'Brien hasn't gotten rid of the wig at this point is because Theresa is more than likely not going to stick around and she's only meant to be on the show on a short term basis. All the writing so far seems to point in that direction anyway and the writers don't even seem invested in her relationship with Tate anyway and Tate appears to have a lot more scenes with Brady anyway. Hopefully once Theresa is gone for good Alex can finally move on with Kristen and they can be a happy couple. Which is fine by me because they actually have some chemistry.

Yeah, some lame revenge plot that was. Nina only lost her job for like what, a couple of weeks at most and then she came right back like it never even happened. Personally, I think it would be a lot more interesting if Drew actually develops feelings for Willow while he is having a fling with Nina and then he decides that he likes Willow better because he sees her as a much sexier and more attractive and younger version of her mom and Nina goes ballistic as she eventually develops a dangerous and twisted obsession with Drew that eventually ends in a major showdown with Nina and Willow over Drew that eventually results in Nina dying altogether. I need this so-called romance between Drew and Nina to be the catalyst that results in Nina leaving the show for good somehow; I don't care how.

I'm not entirely convinced. For all I know he could be pretending to want to help Nina mend fences with her daughter while plotting to sabotage any effort to reconcile as part of a twisted revenge scheme for being sent to prison for the SEC thing. I won't be surprised if he continues to tell her how awful and horrible she is in bed after their next roll in the hay and he also proceeds to criticize her skills as an employee. But that's just me. Also I really don't want Willow and Nina to ever reconcile as mother and daughter since that ship has long sailed at this point. I need Willow to hate and despise her mother forever. Not all mother-daughter pairs on soaps need to like each other, you know.

If Drew and Nina are really going to become a thing, which seems very likely at this point, then Drew's attitude really needs to change at some point because otherwise I'm not going to buy whatever "romance" these writers are trying to peddle between these two. Drew needs to have a legitimate reason to even like Nina as a person, let alone love her, because all I'm getting from him right now is nothing but utter contempt and disgust.

That would be really great if that ends up being the case. And the best part would be that by the time he is done, Nina's life will completely be in tatters and her mind and spirit will be so broken and destroyed that she will be shipped off to a mental institution for the rest of her days and she can languish there until the very day she dies, ignored and forgotten forever.

This Ava/Nina confrontation scene was a long time coming and Ava told a lot of hard truths to Nina. I wish that Ava wasn't simply motivated by possible growing romantic feelings for Sonny and that she was also actually motivated by a desire for revenge against Nina for what happened with Avery by pretending to be her friend and basically playing the long game, but it is what it is. That's how I would've done it; it would've been a lot more compelling in my opinion. I'm also kind of surprised that Nina actually signed the divorce papers but that also needed to happen. Now that Sona is hopefully over and done with for good, Nina can finally move on with her life and put both Sonny and Ava in her rear view mirror as she tries to rebuild her life. Hopefully it won't be long before Nina's tryst with Drew is revealed, as it really won't make a difference anyway on whether or not Nina was really going to win Sonny back in the long run. Also this is going to be kind of a hot take but I don't really want Nina/Drew to turn out to be a legitimate romance and if she's stuck with Drew for the foreseeable future anyway, I wouldn't mind if it eventually turns into a domestic abuse story where Drew regularly inflicts physical, verbal, emotional and maybe even sexual abuse on Nina and Nina tries her best to survive this toxic relationship. And also if Drew is going to turn completely dark anyway, it would also be a lot more interesting if he ends up having an affair with Willow and he and Willow conspired to make Nina's life an utter living hell.

I'm not surprised that Bella has gone under now. I mean, it's not like Theresa's really going to stick around for much longer anyway. Also I hope that Maggie hates Theresa's guts forever and wants nothing to do with her once she finds out about what she's been doing with Konstantin and how she was so willing to put her in harm's way all in the name of money. Then again I hope the entire town hates her guts forever. She deserves to be despised and hated forever with absolutely no forgiveness or absolution.

I'm kind of surprised that Valentin is all in on Pikeman but I guess I'm not all that surprised since he is a Cassadine after all. Also I'm probably a minority here but I don't really understand why people are so hung up on his origins to begin with and Valentin has always been a very fascinating, interesting and complex character, no matter if he's good or bad. And that's a pretty good quality to have in a soap character. Plus he has the charisma to pull it off. So personally I'm not as bothered by it as some other people might be. So if Valentin has been somehow manipulating Sonny's bipolar meds for quite a while now, I guess that could explain much of Sonny's odd and bizarre behavior over the last several months. But I'm not too convinced that Sonny was actually going to forgive Nina over the SEC situation if he wasn't getting screwed over somehow. He was always going to be pissed at her regardless, maybe not nearly as pissed as he otherwise would've been, but he still would've been really upset with her for not trusting him enough to say anything. It's just not in Sonny's character to let bygones be bygones. Also I really hope this is not a setup for Sonny and Nina to reunite because those two should NEVER, NEVER, EVER get back together under any circumstance. I also won't hate it if Ava ended up getting Nina killed somehow and we won't have to deal with her anymore.

Except that I don't recall Sami ever doing anything to jeopardize her brother's profession and livelihood. Andrew should be pissed at Theresa for a very long time; he would be very stupid and foolish to keep on supporting her especially since Theresa has proven time and again that she will never change and she's completely and utterly incapable of changing.

The minute Ron comes back to Days this show is all going to be goofy, dumb and stupid again with a strong emphasis on plot driven nonsense above everything else. I know that the scab writers are terrible too but that doesn't mean that I'm excited for Ron Carlivanti to come back.
