lmao at Bo's story. That was cool he chose to take Billie to an AA meeting, but how did he know there was one?

Liked Kayla telling Steve that Stephanie was pregnant. His reaction was priceless.

I am enjoying Max a lot more, even though I don't enjoy the actress he is in scenes with.

Nick, well he is so entertaining.

This was a pretty boring eppy, but I still enjoyed a few of the scenes. Abby/Nick and Steve/Kayla/Steph scenes were about the only scenes I cared for.

I used to love Lexie, but she is being written horribly. If she leaves town just so Abe won't now she spent time with Tek then I will scream. Lexie wouldn't leave Theo over something petty as that.

Hopefully tommorrow is better, as others have said these last 2 have been very filler.

I'll harp in on the Blake Berris adoration..He really gets cuter with each episode...Much better than when he started, and Nick has become one of my favorite characters...I'm loving that they are using Abby so much more lately, after she sat on the backburner for so long and was only shown as Chelsea's friend and whenever her father showed up back from the dead..

I'm just loving the Nick/Abby friendship. They are cousins and totally honest and open with each other. Abby was so cute being inquisitive about Nick's "sleeping" with Chelsea's mom and what it was like. I roared. This is the best way Abby has been written and she just sparkles.

Frankly, I don't get Bo and Billie at all and think their whole episode could have been cut. Bo telling Chelsea she has a half-sister would have been much better.

Also, I don't get Tek and Lexie. If they are lying, why not just lie about why Lexie happened to show up at John's side when Tek saw EJ shoot him? At least a lie to save Abe's embarrassment wouldn't be as disturbing as what they did cook up which is going to end up getting EJ completely acquitted (at least until John is able to remember and tell it.)

I was thrilled by the lack of any special effects today. The show ended with a classic fade-to-black. No fire. Not even that white light that they use. It was very effective.

Honestly, if there's anything that exemplifies the quality of Hogan's DAYS is that even the "filler" episodes are well written. I really liked the Abby/Nick scenes, the Bo/Billie scenes, even the Max/Mimi scenes. Good show today.

I loved Stephanie's line about she has to go talk to friends. What friends? B*tch, you have no friends. Abby and Chelsea only hang out with you because you're family :lol:

Steve and Kayla stir my gag reflex...

Ahh, I enjoyed Max and Mimi today :unsure: It pains me. The temptation, it's so evil! MABBY is the Garden of Eden and Max and Mimi are the apple...

I LOVE the Bo and Billie friendship. It's very fresh and it beats Hope and her endless whining at Bo. Hope's very judgemental too. I like how Bo made Billie feel that having a one night stand was ok and called her beautiful. I also like the fact that he never told the story to Hope. HAHAHA fancy feast!

I am SOOO glad that Lexie is leaving...I can't stand her pushing everyone around including the police...dude ID the pic and LEAVE!

IA about Mimi's coat....it seems like soap characters always have nice clothes (even though theyre suppose to be broke). Give Meems another coat!!!

I see I'm in the minority again, but that's okay. :D

I enjoy Max and Mimi. I think Max and Abby are boring and I get the bro/sis vibe more than anything. I like Lexi, but the driving home about EJ shooting John is annoying. Nick and Abby are cute and I liked their scenes today. I had to laugh with Bo's story he told Billie and her reaction. LOL! Of course I enjoyed the Steve and Kayla scenes - <sigh>

Overall - most excellent show - much better than ABC! ^_^

So far, I have to say, I can see why there is a liking for Max and Mimi...They do have something... (DrewHamilton, please don't throw anything at me :lol: )...When and if they do pair Abby together with Max (I read she will be paired with someone), then I'll make a decision to see if they have chemistry.

    • 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.
