I've seen all of those clips before. My point is that most people that are complaining about Marlena being different are probably those that watched Marlena from her return in 91-present. This Marlena isn't the same Marlena from the 70s and 80s. Marlena never showed emotion like she's showing now. She wasn't feisty. Hogan is writing Marlena the way she should be. What part of that is not clear in my posts?

I pretty certain it's been more than two shows, at least three and two is plenty. We get the picture. How long can a man go with seizures and pounding head, flopping around, etc. and not be hospitalized for a reason. It's time to get to the beef now. LOL and maybe it's because everything else if happening at lightening speed this one seems like it dropped dead already and interest is lost.

I loved the "doodlebug" thing. Bo calling her doodlebug, then Kayla asking what the name was and Hope replying, "Doodlebug!" It was the highlight of the episode for me.

Other than that, alot of 'story establishing' scenes. Not alot of action, but alot of setup for what comes next. It's necessary.

The first seizure began on Monday's show. They weren't on Tue or Wednesday. Today's was the 2nd one, and Monday's seizure was "last night" to them. When the 2nd one hit they did an MRI.

Sorry, I really don't see how anyone can argue it's being dragged out.

Agree. I thought it was just adorable.

Someone has this as a sig banner on another board. I, for one, thought it was absolutely hysterical.

Anyway, I hope that the baby's nickname will forever be "Doodlebug." Lord knows I prefer it to Ciara.

:lol: Kenny, what a geat find..

Bree I like your avatar as well.

I agree that today was for storytelling purposes and is very needed, but I am still so anxious to find out the whole story behind Steve's episodes. I am impatient, always have been. What's a girl to do?!

Benjy gave Steve the card on Friday and he had his episode right after that. We saw it on Monday, however it may have been shown in the previews on Friday, too. Monday he had two episodes and today he had another. That is three...for sure.

Yes, I don't like to see him like that at all. It's unnerving, so I'm impatient.

I don't see what the complaining is for either. To me, it's nitpicking when there is nothing to nitpick about. The show is moving at breakneck speed. It can't possibly go any faster :lol:

Today's show was great.

My favorite part was Marlena standing up to Dr. Tucker about John. Marlena and Belle rocked in those scenes and i loved when John got upset with Steve there and when he moved his finger. I can't wait to watch all this unfold.

I am glad Shawn. Max, and Mimi are moving on. Mimi being all cutesy was horrible. That was one of the worst displays of acting ever. The guy taking the picture was interesting. I did like Max/Mimi at the end though but not enough to deter my Maby loving. Loved the scene with Beverly at the end getting ready to act.

Bo, Hope, and Kayla were wonderful. It's nice seeing Bope happy for once. Hope is glowing right now and I loved seeing her conversing with Marlena yesterday and now Kayla today. Kayla holding that baby made me nervous. She was like strangling it :lol:

Steve's episodes are so intriguing. SN plays them awesomely.

Good show. Now I hope for an awesome finish to the week.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • Andrew sure has hard nips.
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
    • @janea4old Your detailed explanation and delving into the psychology and motivations is no doubt the opposite of what we will see onscreeen. As @ranger1rg stated we will get a few scenes and some sketchy explanations. Like the adoption of Aria, most of it will take place off screen.
    • I'm suddenly fearful that DAYS is going to pull a Flowers-for-Algernon stunt and Bo's progress will be reversed.  While @te. is stuck on Abe's tiny bedroom, I can't stop thinking of the size of Bo's huge hospital room.
    • Okay, why are Paulina and Abe sleeping like that?!  I'd take a screen grab if I wasn't lazy, but come on.
