I'm still trying to navigate my way through Prime Video. I've downloaded the seasons of The Boys, but I'm still working on Season 3. I don't know what's popular on this streaming service, but that's cool to see classic shows that appeal to certain audiences (e.g., Baby Boomers; Traditionalists). My mom will tell me that the television shows they put on television now is crap, lol!

Oh, cool! I just didn't know where it was from. Thanks for your reply! 🙂 Media Bias Fact Check: Scientific American

Where is this from?

If storylines conveniently happen in private without the knowledge of the audience who actually watch it, then I immediately dismiss it and I label it as lazy storytelling. In fact, I laugh at it because it's ridiculous. I don't care about Belle, Shawn, EJ, Sami, cheeseburgers, chili cheeseburgers, Lucas, or Jan. Is there anyone here who posted that they hope that Sami finds out that Lucas was the one who kidnapped her last year? Anyone? Show of hands? Anyone? Is there anyone who was curious to know what happened to Jan after MarDevil morphed her into Belle? Anyone? Show of hands? Anyone? Is it bad to say that I cared more for the 9 naval oranges that went to waste when Jan put them inside a blanket to make it look like she was carrying her baby? Absolutely not, although it would be nice to see Belle's face when she discovers that Shawn is not the father of Jan Spears baby. At the rate she's going, her only comfort seems to be sex. There ain't nothing wrong with it, but sex only gives you momentary pleasure (depending who you sleep with that's for sure). Perhaps she should take that sexual aggravation and release it on the Florida cigarette ashtray wallpaper she has sportin' inside her home.

I'm still getting caught up here, but if Finn is unconscious while his birth mother accidentally shot him, then how did he know that Shelia also pointed the gun at Steffy while she was trying to call 9-1-1? Was he pretending to play dead with one eye opened while lying all over nasty garbage bags?

Maybe because of the 'Community Posts' section on the right-hand side when skimming the message board? I don't know if there's a way to adjust that in settings, but I'm fine either way. I'm not complaining. That could explain Eric's new love life interest unless he wanted to screw a cousin. Hey, you had kissing cousins on Guiding Light. 😄 You know what's so weird is that I was thinking about Molly Burnett just the other day. I have no clue as to why when I passed by a woman on the grocery aisle and she smiled like Molly as her grocery cart and my grocery basket almost collided with each other. I'm not surprised about Phillip returning as his whereabouts kind of fizzled into the sunset. I wonder if there's an "I Don't Care" raffle ticket hopper. Where you know, you get to turn the hopper and spin it around for a little bit where the tickets are flying in all sorts of different directions? Then, as a writer on DAYS looks in the opposite direction before pulling out an "I Don't Care" raffle ticket, the ticket reads: "Sami's Kidnapping" or "Phillip's Disappearance". Then, the writers try something else to conjure up in about two episodes.

I've toyed around with most of the anti-virus software's out there, and although you never specified which one, it sounds to me the one you could be using is Malwarebytes. If so, there's a way to worm yourself around the hassle. But yeah, I've used a lot of them. I've never had that issue issuing Intego, Avast, or Bitdefender. Moreover, I'm not sure about browser preferences, but I prefer using Brave browser as my experiences are completely different when using Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome. But, c'est la vie. 🙃 I cannot believe I haven't watch the last episode of Beyond Salem. Well, episode and a half. I've been trying to get caught up on B&B. I stopped watching the fourth Beyond Salem episode during the Harris, Ciara, and Ben scenes. It was hard describing as to why I was being such a stinker watching it altogether, and I think I said something to the extent of "there was no movement". Now that I've had more time to evaluate or grasp my initial thoughts several days ago, I think what I was trying to express was that there wasn't a natural flow to it. In other words, nothing felt organic. But then again, what is organic these days on soaps? Everyone falls in love in two episodes, or one will pop the marriage question and then they both decide to marry each other three days later. WTF ever. Going back to Beyond Salem, Steve Burton didn't seem like he knew where he needed to stand or position himself on set - maybe because the set is about as big as a hen house, but who am I to judge people? Take some brown eggs given what you're given.

Ooohhhh! She's a doctor! LMAO! Shelia clocks Li over the head, and then 5 minutes later, Shelia hugs her. 😂 Geez, man.

Why is Mike involved in the first place? I remember him back in Genoa City, but that's a blur. Does he owe Shelia a favor?

I'm getting caught up here. What is Li's profession? I thought she was the DA or something. Then, she's injecting a serum to Finn. I like her though, but I've been laughing at this constant obsession these characters have over someone else. I'm telling ya, if people on this show minded their own business. 😄 LMAO! Pickleball .... 🤣

God, I hate posting so much especially since I just posted. I'm not trying to be annoying, I swear! Since we're talking about Megan, here's what she said that made me turn my head to the side: Megan: "Something old, Hope. Something new ..." And then she pulls out a bullet. This is not an ageist comment by any means, but is she saying that Hope is old? Has Megan looked in the mirror lately? Both actresses look great, but I didn't quite get the one-liner there. Or, let's just say that whoever wrote this, this one-liner really fell flat.

There wasn't any movement! I don't know what the hell I'm trying to say. Let me think here. Okay, so when Harris was going to call for help and I guess he pretended to call, there was nothing being said out of his mouth and he's three steps away from them. So, if nothing is being said out of his mouth, then why would Ciara and Ben take it at face value that he called for help? Moreover, why wouldn't Ben use his damn phone? It just felt embarrassingly awkward, but at least the grass looked pretty.

Why should she? Trust me, I'm indifferent towards this whole story. Sami is divorced from EJ and shortly thereafter, Sami's marrying Lucas. Sami finds out that Lucas kidnapped her and Sami's immediately running to the Dimera Mansion unannounced banging on his bedroom door. EJ can do whatever he wants, but this Belle and EJ stuff is so lame as I don't see the chemistry. There's nothing wrong with having a fuc*buddy, but then EJ is telling Belle that what they have is affectionate love. Dude. Come on. Seriously. We know what this is.

SAME! That's why I couldn't watch the rest. Moreover, the Ben, Ciara, and Harris scenes were just ... I dunno. It was something. Yeah, it needed a lot of improvement.

I've only watched half of it. But, perhaps he made that statement because MarDevil is used to be being tied up in rope before the MarBeast is splashed with water, lol!

Hahaha! I said that when I paid $4.99 to see that Christmas Brady Spectacular (or whatever it was called), but aside from that, I nearly have all the movies that Peacock features as premium. I'm sure their dramas and comedies are good, but that $4.99 was such a waste. That's why I'm surprised to see these episodes available at RARBG. Oh, well. It's free so I'm not complaining. I was thinking about converting these episodes in 4K, but with the heaven scenes, I feel like it wouldn't be such a great idea. 😆🤣😂

Hahaha! Well, at least Sami didn't find this out outside Brady Pub. I'm trying to see if I can wrap my head around this. Sami and EJ got a divorce. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to marry Lucas immediately after that. The wedding day doesn't go on as planned as Lucas was the one who kidnapped her. Meanwhile, EJ and Belle seem to have sex all the time as they have nothing much to talk about besides their former loves and Jan Spears. The main takeaway I'm getting is that EJ and Sami are divorced. So, when Sami realizes that Lucas was the one who kidnapped her, she decides to go to EJ's house unannounced. I don't know if Harold let her in, but she's basically showing up unannounced as she no longer lives there. Sami is still clearly in her wedding dress and notices a huge brazier on the floor and finds out that EJ is sleeping with Belle and is upset. Why? The divorce was already finalized. I'm sure Lucas and Sami have been having sex as much before her divorce to EJ, so I don't understand why she's angry. You can't have it both ways. I don't get it.

I can't think of good murder mystery that I have enjoyed on DAYS besides The Killing Pool. The Salem Serial Killer had me intrigued until they were all on that island. Oh, god I'm sure there are so many, but I started re-watching DAYS in 1996. My illicit love affair with DAYS comes and goes and I can take it or leave it. As much as I make snide comments, it's all a healing process, lol! 😄 Today's episode was FUN-NY! It was all over the place I tell ya. Is it just ME, or does it seem like Belle and EJ are nothing but fu*kbuds? Right? Am I right?? I think we all know here! EJ: "Belle. What can I do? (pause) To help you with your sorrow?" Belle: "EJ! Will you? (pauses and looks gazingly into his eyes) Please take me to Poundtown." 😆😆🤣 Geez, man. They have nothing else to really talk about besides Sami, Shawn, or Jan. Hey, that rhymed.

Yep. It's all a marketing strategy simply put, lol! It's the same when you scan your CVS, Walgreens, Kroger, and whatever VIP Member Card you have. Whatever you purchase, they gotcha! Hook, line, and sinker! You're about to get some deals on your favorite consumer brands and spend that $$$. They already know who you are. Not personally. Consumer wise? Absolutely.

I'm still trying to get all caught up on B&B on Paramount + and I'll see her name in the ending credits occasionally under cast list. I think that's awesome she has a niche to try and do different things as I'm the same way. Now that I'm catching up, this ought to be interesting to see which episodes she has directed. I wish there was a way to snab a B&B director over to DAYS. Hell, even for a day or two. 😄

Blue Moon was on Guiding Light. I totally remember that as the character of Hampton Speakes would always be playing his jazz and a little bit of R&B musical numbers on his saxophone! I remember! 😃

I just miss that kind of character interaction and it was all in the same room. Whereas now, people sit at the same table or the last stool at the bar at Brady's Pub, the individual who is being held in custody always sits on the right side in the interrogation room, and the same people sit at the same table and have a cocktail in that night lounge place, etc. Oh, the things we once took for granted and never really thought about until now, lol! Hahaha!

Are there any art museums or decent Thai food restaurants?

Ah, Tuscany!! Thank you for that! Alice's, lol! God, I scratched my head at that western-themed establishment. I never understood it for some reason.

If I'm not mistaken, I think Maggie's restaurant was called Chez Rouge. I miss old sets like that because it seemed as if there was always something going on as many characters sat in different tables and they would take the time to dance and interact with each other, etc.
