Thanks for the tip. I'm not even there viewing-wise yet and as I told my co-worker who grew up on DAYS today, I'm just not ready. So I know I'll be a mess when I get to the episode. Love all of this. -
People really forget the show started at the end of Feb. -

Yeah I just took it as the life Marlena truly wanted and needed started with John that day. She lived a life before with loves and happiness, but found her soul mate in John. Besides, I don't expect Marlena to get into semantics of her previous loves with her husband that clearly has little time left. And, yes, @j swift in Salem you just say Happy Anniversary whenever you multi time married friends decide what day they want to celebrate it lol. -
May 21, 1990 was CBS Monday comedy finale night. Major Dad season 1 finale, Newhart series finale, Murphy Brown season 2 finale, Designing Women season 4 finale. The comedies that were in the 1989/90 Top 10 had their season finales earlier. April 23-29, 1990: Empty Nest April 30-May 6, 1990: The Cosby Show, A Different World, Cheers, The Golden Girls May 7-13, 1990: Roseanne May 14-20, 1990: The Wonder Years -
I understood it very differently as well. I wouldn't have piled on, but @janea4old and I were clearly composing our posts at the same time (great minds think alike, and fools seldom differ). To me, she was saying that their love was an awakening. Obviously, she loved Roman and their twins, as well as Don. But, John revealed something to her that she had never seen before. I actually think it is a lovely, and very optimistic, idea to think that one's third marriage could be special because you met each other at a specific time in your life. Not to be crude about the departed, but John was trained by the best, and he rocked her world. Think about it, before Kristin met him, she was just a mild-mannered social worker. And< I doubt Roman and Kate are doing whatever Doc and John did with those strawberries and cream. If we translate soap dialogue into reality, that is probably what Marlena meant. Of course, John was only her third husband if you don't count Eugene andPlease register in order to view this content
(aka the husband nobody mourned). If you choose that definition, John was also her 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th husband. However, I believe it was @carolineg who reminded us that in polite society, friends just say Happy Anniversary, and don't mention the years in between. -
I knew that

disagree on all counts To me it's obvious that what Marlena meant was that she was already a complete person within herself before meeting John; but after meeting John her life blossomed to a new level she hadn't known before. I don't think she was bound to John as back and forth caretakers. I think she and John were true equals. Roman loved Marlena in his own way but he was somewhat patronizing at times.

I agree that she looks good. I wasn't slamming her, her age or her looks in my last post. I was just commenting on the fact that her wardrobe and hair gave me Susan Sullivan/"Dharma & Greg" vibes, lol.
