Contessa Donatella

As it is now, KS has the lowest guarantee. I suspect that is their bottom.

9, we could come up with more.

Yes, from her IG they do life coaching as a team. Also she has lots of pictures of herself in different hats. Literally.

Yes, she & Shawn are a couple. Please god don't take Ari from DAYS or DAYS from Ari! Eric killed him in a drunk driving accident OMG, poor Eric! At the time was Holly old enough that she has memories of Daniel? Hmm, I guess my first thought should have been poor Daniel. oops.

I see this sentiment from fans all over the place!! Got to get her out of the Q kitchen!

This feels like an umbrella story to me. Eric is gonna need his mom's support when this all begins to unravel. Okay, clue me in. What happened with Daniel? Julie was great today. Maybe it's just me, but I am worried about Bill Hayes. They're not playing him at all. Chad & Thomas & Charlotte might as well live at Alice's. Chad's new-found opinion of Everett to me is weird. But, today was another good DAYS. That makes 3 in a row for the new year. At the rate we're going Ari Zucker will be the new queen of days.

Hmm, good question. Lois has been holding down the fort in the Q kitchen. Two times with Sonny. Many with Brook Lynn, twice with Chase present (they like each other), lots with Olivia, but no, zip with Ned.

Oh, strong opinions of late: Lucy has reached an all new STFU status for me! Tracy is completely right & I was proud of Brook Lynn for taking up for her granma. Olivia has now reached a similar STFU point. Lois was absolutely right. I hope Olivia comes around because it would be a shame to lose that friendship. Michael did not score any points with Sonny but he also didn't weasel out. Who will be today's all new STFU person? If Drew picks a fight with Sam, it'll be him.

Laughing, thinking about Sonny, he might as well be carrying Nina's purse for her. The other night he practically had a conniption fit that she wouldn't leave the magazine office & come to the party with him. Gee, let the woman do her job, one of them anyway. I am interested in him today. I really have no idea what to expect. Will he be angry? If so, is it mostly going to be because so many people lied to him? Part of me expects Sonny & Willow to have very low key reactions. Oh, Drew? I just can't figure those two out. What they see in each other, I have no clue. Also I wonder if Drewfus is gonna blow up over Scout not wanting to go to the fancy school he's so pleased to get her into.

VERY intense fans, yes! Frankly, the show is just the love & romance of J&M to them, there is nothing more.

I mean, Drake/Deidre make out all the time for fan events and that's weird to me. I just think they are co-workers and know they are stuck together for life basically. I am not sure if either one of them love that, but they just are resigned to it at this point. I don't think they have weekend BBQ's together or anything. I have never heard Deidre say anything overly positive about Josh Taylor so that image is strange. I am sure Josh Taylor is a nice guy though. That picture is totally weird. But, what I wanted to speak to is the PDA between Drake & Dee in public. Their fans, the rabid ones, are so crazy about it. Last Day of Days, they indicated they did not plan to share a kiss & some Jarlenites posted that it ruined the whole trip for them. I couldn't believe it! They were serious. There's something off about that. When they are at events, they're being themselves, Dee & Drake, not Marlena, not John. I suspect some of these fans have confused real with reel. It seems to me that it is sick.

I have a healthy dislike of Nina. I think Carly has her head screwed on pretty tight & she seems to live in the real world & she doesn't have any delusions about herself or about the way she gets along with Sonny, cause those two would open a vein for the other one, Ava, who she tolerates to a large degree only for Avery's sake (which counts), and even Sam & also all the Qs, she doesn't really have a bunch of enemies, only Nina, which as I have said is largely stupidity.

I don't believe there is any serious competition in a Wayne vs. JT Roman-off! We know who would win. But the way it stands now with Roman's biggest excitement being that his new daughter-in-law doesn't like chowder, I would feel bad mounting a campaign to get WN back! I wonder could they, would they give Roman some part of this new Comatose Holly storyline. It seems to be shaping up as an umbrella story.

Well, the only reason Nina turned them in was because she was pissed off & as Ava pointed out to her it was an incredibly stupid thing for her to do, for 2 very good reasons. 1. Sonny who likely wouldn't care for being with a snitch and 2. Willow who she wants to have a relationship with & who she knows treasures Carly. To me those are the valid reasons why Nina has allowed herself to be blackmailed. If she was so right then she should have come clean to these two people months ago! You might have noticed that I mentioned that Jason & Carly were considering having a real marriage not just an arranged one. But, I honestly don't think Carly's feelings for Jason had anything to do with their break-up. If she had to choose between Sonny & Jason as far as husbands go, she would always choose Sonny. And once he reappeared she did choose Sonny. They would not be divorced today if she hadn't caught him in bed with Nina.

According to stories, they existed on many shows. Do you judge them all so harshly?

Interesting. I've never read anything before but criticisms of Black & Stern. So this was a new perspective. Thank you for finding & sharing this.

She talks about missing Wayne. She was very happy with RoMar. She's never stopped saying he's her best friend. She has told anecdotes of at least two pranks Wayne pulled & she clearly thinks they are hilarious. I wonder if she didn't want to recapture "the cop & the doc".

Okay, thanks. I will do it differently from now on. Yep. Looks so much better.

I am just posting this to let you know what it looks like when someone posts the link to a new article by you, in this example, in a Facebook soap opera group. There's the link & then this big white space which shows ap & com. That is all.

Like an idiot I just watched it again! I fear that carol is now going to be ruined for me forever!

Well, I was so looking forward & it did not disappoint. I have only 1 complaint & that is the juxtaposition of Carly's last line, "My mom's dead." to a chorus & orchestra giving a maniacal performance of "Deck The Halls" as the music that carried us out while they ran the traditional full credits! I thought Lois did the right thing. LOTD: Lois: I yam your friend.

Do we know when Douglas Marland decided that Lisa Brown was his muse?

Drew had his attorney set up a plea deal. He'd plead guilty to Insider Trading & get 6 months at a white collar "country club" prison. The judge didn't like the deal. Accepted the guilty plea & instead sentenced Drew to 3 years at Pentonville, where he was beaten within an inch of his life. They almost killed him. Cyrus sorta did save his life. Carly had to pay a 5 million dollar fine. The Insider Trading was a total flop. The merger did not go through. Carly had borrowed against her half of the Metro Court to buy the stock. She lost her half of the Metro Court. When Sonny finally remembered who he was he returned home. Jason & Carly had just married. The families were not tolerating Carly well & he had to either kill her or marry her. So it was an arranged marriage for the sake of the mob families. But, as they got closer & closer to their wedding they began to consider what if they made it really a marriage. Sonny wanted to be back with his family but he refused to blame Nina. There was a lot of confusion & suspicions & many partial conversations. One night Sonny sent word to Carly to come meet him on the Haunted Star. She did not go immediately. Then she did go. Sonny got the mistaken impression that she wasn't coming. When Carly arrived & walked into the bedroom, he & Nina were in the bed & had quite obviously just had sex.

Today instead of being aware of her accent & diction, IOW that she's not using a British accent, I got past it & was able to just hear her words. Possibly because she was angry, truly enraged. Good sign, though.

Putting my fingers in my ears & saying lalalalalala-can't hear you-lalalalala! 😉🤪🙄🤣🤣🤣🤣 Seriously, though, you are right, Alex North was so bad, monstrously bad, and JT's Roman, we have to face it, it's a failure. I truly do not understand what Corday's expectation was with that idea. And the closet thing to story they've given him is his not liking his son Eric's chosen wife Sloan because she doesn't like chowder. Frank Parker & Peggy McCay are very likely rolling over! That the Brady pub would be reduced to that!
