Looks like Salem has received it's first snowfall.

Loved the Shawn/Belle scenes! I liked Belle correcting Shawn when he told Claire that "dadda" was home. Philip is really "dadda", Shawn. You never will be. The little actress that plays Claire is ADORABLE! I can't believe she doesn't have a headband on today. That's like, a first.

KATE AND VICTOR!!! Loving them together. Victor was so cold towards Lucas. HE'S BACK!

I'm enjoying the Cop Shop Boys as well.

The Lucas, Sami and EJ scenes totally rocked. I am loving watching EJ unravel at the seams. James Scott plays the creepy villain so well. Loved Lucas standing up for Sami...that is when the couple works best. And the HOT kiss...*swoon*.

Great nod to history with the Alan Harris mention. Hogan and Meg really do their homework.

Bad ass Victor rocks!

Creepy EJ is sooooo sexy! You know AMC is kicking themselves in the ass for wasting James Scott's talent on such a boring character like Ethan Cambias. I bet they wish they could've made him a proper villain on the show. I know it's wrong, but when EJ was being creepy and abusive towards Sami today, it just made me want them as a couple even more I don't know...

I am loving Shawn and Belle right now. Belle isen't letting Shawn walk all over her and I love that she makes it clear how important Phillip was and still is to Claire. She's a kid, all she knows is that when she cries "dada", Phillip doesn't come to pick her up. Glad she made that clear to Shawn.

Evil!Victor is back, and John Aniston is onscreen more now that he was in total during Langan and JER2's days. Which is awesome, because he is a kick ass actor with such a powerful prescence. And that tall guy with a tiny baby is just adorable. Esp loved how Claire looked down and up at Victor and he just looked back. Very cute. He handles her very well. And Martha Madison/John Aniston in scenes is a dream team to me. He's so big and powerful and yet she doesn't back down, she knows how to handle herself.

James Scott is going to kick ass once EJ shows his true DiMera self on a regular basis. Nice nod to history with the Alan mention, and good scenes when Lucas saved Sami from being raped.

Wow! Willow just put Shawn in his place. She just told him how it was. God, I love Annie Burgestede!!!!!!

Belle isen't letting Shawn walk all over her and I love that she makes it clear how important Phillip was and still is to Claire. She's a kid, all she knows is that when she cries "dada", Phillip doesn't come to pick her up. Glad she made that clear to Shawn.

Well without going into spoilers, Belle is going to EAT her words and regret that decision.

IA with all about AMC wasting James' talent. Jokes on them. He is amazing as this villian.

Sami and Lucas were great together. Loved the mention of Alan. I do wish that Sami and EJ could be friends, guess I won't be getting that anytime soon.

I am over poor pitiful Willow's routine. She drives me nuts, if I have to hear her "my life was so hard, all I ever wanted was a home" speech one more time..AAHH! Shawn needs to get his head out of his a.s.s. and get a clue.

Victor and Claire are so cute together.

It was a very good show today, as it should be for what would normally be a Friday show.

The Sami/Lucas/EJ stuff rocked. Loved the Alan mention and how good was James Scott. He played the intensity of that scenes well and Ali was great too. Loved the LUMI kiss and when Lucas spilled the paint on EJ. The facades that EJ and Patrick put up are falling apart and I love it. I don't think AMC knew fully what they had in James Scott.

John Aniston rocks. His coldness towards Lucas, his scenes with Kate and Belle-Victor the great is back!! I love how he is with Claire and the scenes with Philip are creepy. I just love when we get Kate/Victor scenes and I liked Kate showing Belle the photo. I really like this story.

I don't like Willow and I am sick of the poor me crap. I did love the Shelle scenes with Claire. Very cute and Claire is just adorable.

Cop shop was good. I like all the men just acting like men and I love how they all ganged up on Tek. The Tek and Lexie scenes at the end were pretty good and I like how Abe became more open to John and Bo helping as the episode went on. Can't wait to see the story unfold now.

Solid episode though to start the week.

Willow SHINED in today's episode. It was BEAUTIFUL, just BEAUTIFUL.

That scene with Victor, Claire and Philip in the secret room. No words were exchanged, yet that was one of the most powerful scenes of 06. LOVED IT!

Willow SHINED in today's episode. It was BEAUTIFUL, just BEAUTIFUL.

This character suc&^ big time! Why is she on the show?

I'm begining to think Drew was one of Willow's clients

This character suc&^ big time! Why is she on the show?

Why are you too busy drinking Hateraide?

I do agree with you on the Victor scene Drew. That scene with Victor just looking at Philip, who was looking at Claire as she smiles at hime. That is great stuff. I am so happy to see John Aniston and Victor back and having him written as he should be written.

Loved Victor's scenes too, that man comes on and it's like insta-Interest.

What else happened today? Oh yeah, Willow *this* close to leaving, and then ... sigh.

Creepy EJ = awesome.

Claire was so gabby today! Martha Madison has a cute rapport with the little thing.

Why are you too busy drinking Hateraide?

I'm just saying she is ruining your show. Just like Celia was ruining ATWT. But if you want I will say she was WONDERFUL! That way she will get more airtime.
