Members DrewH Posted January 4, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 LOL, re-read it. I said that I grew up watching Reilly's Marlena, which is not the same Marlena from the 70s and 80s. She was never sassy, strong and ready to kick ass in the 90s-present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Pest Spray Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 Drew, go watch Marlena's reaction to Roman's death in 1984, or better yet, DJ's or Sam's deaths... Beautiful, and that's how Marlena is. Marlena's always been emotional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Pest Spray Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 Sorry She was sassy and strong, and she could kick ass, but it wasen't in the same way. She wasen't as raw and on charge as she was in the 70s/80s and is now. She was very complex, she went through hell and it didn't get her down.

Members DrewH Posted January 4, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Days4Life Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 LOL, GBB, you're exactly right but I've watched DAYS this week with a teething, screaming baby on my lap so the devil factor has been doubled for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaysFanJean Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 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.

Members KLN Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 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.

Members DrewH Posted January 4, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 Exactly. You can't have action everyday. What causes that action? Without set up, there would be no action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GBB Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KLN Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bree Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 Kenny your banner is great! She does look like one of the Wayans brothers all made up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Nixsoaps Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 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?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaysFanJean Posted January 5, 2007 Members Share Posted January 5, 2007 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PhoenixRising05 Posted January 5, 2007 Members Share Posted January 5, 2007 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 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 Steve's episodes are so intriguing. SN plays them awesomely. Good show. Now I hope for an awesome finish to the week.

Members Sweet_VeeVee24 Posted January 5, 2007 Members Share Posted January 5, 2007 I liked the show...yes, I too could have done without Mimi doing the cutesy chatter with Claire. I'm glad that I am watching the show now; there's so much going on...and I no longer wish for the time to hurry up and the show to be off my screen.
