Man, what an episode. Brandon Beemer is oh so yummy. This is the first I've seen of Willow. She seems interesting. I couldn't figure out what the hell they were sleeping on until Bo arrived. Then, onto Willow's shift at Chez Rouge. Oh man. Yay Maggie! And, oh man, the Willow/Mimi freindship and then Shawn inadvertently invitign them BOTH to the Fancy Face III after their shifts. This should be good. Anybody else love that Bo gave the FF to Shawn? A nice move. I wonder who will take residence in the Lofts now? Especially once Mimi leaves. I guess Belle could move back eventually, but, who knows.

Chelsea, Chelsea, Chelsea. For the love of all that is sacred, she's a whore now. Her scenes with Kate, teasing her about EJ and the lead in to her next scheme. Priceless!

Abe! That was random.

Hope and Patrick is still the weakest link. Hope needs to realize that she can't know if something is right if she can't share it with everyone she loves. That's why she works with Bo. The Hortons are far too much a family unit for her to be a rebel at her age. Glad the Patrick/Karen Bader secret's about to be out. Bader spoke pretty sinisterly, though, which bothered me. LOL.

Yeah, I was surprised that the doctor had no problems with what she did. Ruthless is the only word that comes to mind as I type this. Surprising indeed!

Well, we finally have the truth about Patrick now. It took one week of Hogan's writing to clear up what JER couldn't for almost 3 years. It was just another great show. Great to have Abe talk to Hope. She needed someone to talk to since Jen is not around. Can't wait to see Mimi's face when she sees who Willow's angel is! Although FF will probably have no expression at all. I can't imagine finding my grandmother having sex with a younger man!!! Of course, I can't imagine my grandmother looking like Kate!

Everything is just flowing so good on the show right now. Good to see Steve/Kayla on the previews. I'm ready for their story to heat up now.

It kind of surprises me, too... unless the plan is to bounce Dr. Bader and Lexie and make Kale Browne's doctor character the lead one at the hospital (as a longtime AW fan, I can dream, can't I? lol)

As a Bope fan, I can't tell you how much I looked forward to that final scene with Patrick. Always liked ya personally, Brody, but your character's a bastard.

Isn't Kayla a docter?

I just want to see Hope slap Patrick and his slimy ass family hauled away for good.

LOVE Kate and E.J!

Bored now, about Willow and Shawn...

Hope angers me to no end. All she has to do is tell Patrick he was a mistake. That their one incident was a mistake and not a life-time commitment and give him his walking papers. Out of her life. Why is she so considerate of his feelings but not for her husband of 20 plus year? This is loony. Furthermore, Hope is a cop. One who was supposed to have arrested Patrick herself a few years ago. She knows he has a criminal background. JER and Hogan both have dropped the ball big time here, in my and a lot of others apparently, judgment.

I laughed at Chelsea. She is a minx. A real cutie-pie and a total handful. Bo and Billie are so on to her schemes that she will never get anywhere with them. She should learn that and Kate should know that and not encourage her to waste her efforts. It's sort of endearing, though. She really loves Bo and Billie.

Bo and Shawn were interesting today. It will be exciting to watch next week with what I read will happen.

Willow and Mimi. Now how will all that play out?

I have a question of ya'll. Remember when Mimi tried her best to talk Belle out of marrying Philip and yakked about it all the way down the aisle practically? Well, now Mimi tried her best to talk Belle into stopping Philip from leaving, even dragging her to the airport and yakking at her all the way to stop Philip. I was hoping that is a sign that Belle will learn that Philip is the true love of her life after all. Does that sound like a soap opera sort of thing?

I love what Hogan is doing with the show. S/Ls actually get told before the fans forget what started it in the first place. Chelsea, I just don't know what to say about her. Does she really think being a hooker will get Bo and Billie back together. I can't wait to see Shawn, Mimi and Willow. That should be good.

Kate and EJ are so hot! I love the total change in Kate's character since Hogan took over, what, last week? Kate has gone back to who she really is, a powerful vixen that gets what she wants. It just so happens she wanted EJ. I'm so ready for a Sami/EJ/Kate triangle I'm tried of LUMI and feel they need a break. I don't count Austin/Sami and Lucas/Carrie the break they needed.

Chelsea's comments to Kate about EJ made me laugh. Rachel Melvin is a wonder as an actress. In a little over a year, she has taken one of DAYS' most hated characters and transformed her into a fan favorite. I hope Chelsea as a prostitute is only a one time thing. I don't want to see this.

Patrick/Hope bore me to tears. I liked the ending though. Damn you Karen Bader!

Loved SHALLOW! They are defintely the next hot couple in Salem and if Hogan is only using Willow as a road block for SHELLE, I will be so pissed. I'm tired of SHELLE. Hogan needs to keep them apart to rebuild the ruined characters. SHELLE is no longer the money couple. Willow is Shawn's new soulmate. Give Belle someone new. I wouldn't mind seeing Belle and Lucas?

Peter Reckell and Brandon Beemer are so believable as father/son. Willow was right though. When she and Shawn hurried to get dressed before Bo walked in, I felt like it was 2001 again and we were watching Salem High DAYS. I liked it though. It was defintely cute.

Oh, and I'm loving Mimi and Willow working together and forming a friendship. They're talking about the same guy and neither one knows it yet. Willow inviting Mimi to her new boyfriend's house (who is also Mimi's soon to be ex-husband) CLASSIC SOAP OPERA MOMENT!

I loved Lucas telling Sami about his dream..LMAO when she told him it ended with him on the couch.

Chelsea and Kate were great as well. Hoping up on Kate's desk and asking her who she had been with.

Chelsea trying to be a hooker was funny. It was so obvious she had no idea what she was doing, I loved her trying to walk in those shoes and then adjust herself at the mail box.

Willo/Shawn/Mimi, how interesting....

I thought the show was good, definitely not the best of the week, but good. Chelsea is hilarious...I just hope they arent going to really try and get Bo and Billie back...the writers are past that, right? As long as it just stays as some wild dream of Chelsea's, I'm okay with that. I LOVED the preview at the end with Billie saying, "Chelsea!" hahaha Her tone actually kinda reminded me of how my mom used to respond to my dog after he did something she didnt like, lol. All Billie needs to do is stomp her foot and clap her hands.

Bo and Shawn had great scenes together, I'm glad he's letting Shawn stay in the FF3. I cant wait to see Mimi and Willow show up at the boat. I was REALLY surprised that that happens in the next episode! With JER, it would taken at least a week for the day to move on and for them to leave the restaurant.

And to whoever said about Belle being with Lucas....that would be intiguing. I can't really say I at all would want to see that...but it certainly would be interesting to see the new-Sami's reaction to that if it did happen...

I officially will be glad when Patrick is a distant memory...I never liked him and Hope together; AT ALL.

Can't stand Chelsea; she is definitely Kate's granddaughter, that's for sure. She's sickening to me.

Lucas and Belle...That's just too much. They need to be with someone their brother/sister hasn't been with. I'm glad this Patrick thing is coming to an end, but that means more Bo and Hope on my screen and I do NOT want to see them. They do nothing for me together and Hope does nothing for me alone.

I have a feeling there will be a lot of disappointed people on this board real soon. But I loved the Mimi/Willow scenes. And the best part is the classic soap opera moment takes place on Monday. If it were Reilly writing this, Mimi would meet Shawn's new friend in January.

I agree and think this would be an excellent way to get Philip back to Salem.

Also, I think Claire will be found to belong to Philip. Think for a moment, Claire looks nothing like Shawn. Her features are the coloring of Belle and Philip! This would be my dream storyline.

I would love for Claire to turn out to be Phillips, and Belle and him were together. Unfortunatly I think it is only a dream.
