Great show especially loving Shawn and Belle "kidnapping" Claire from Phillip. Also loving how many characters on the show are involved in this story. Wasn't it great to see Bo, Hope, and Kayla cheering Sami on? Sure Sami is heading for a fall when everyone finds out what happened, but at least this time we know she really did save Lucas's life. Oh yeah, SN was just awesome today.

I loved Steve and EJ's interaction, it was so well played. I felt Stephen's own humor lent itself wonderfully into the scenes but I have to commend James Scott for his nuanced acting. I loved the way he kept lightly touching and kissing the girl in his lap. The director/camera man did a fabulous job interspersing the subtle gestures through out the scenes. So do I think EJ in love with Sami? NOPE! Even if EJ has a heart it clear that Sami is not in it. In his thoughts perhaps. How he can torment her maybe. But love? No way!

Martha has become my favorite leading young actress on daytime.

Friday's show is very rewatchable. Great job by everyone today.

I'm just glad Steve Wyman doesn't tint Steve green when he has his episodes, real or faked. They remind me of The Incredible Hulk. I hope I didn't give him any ideas! :lol:

I had to :rolleyes: at Will's shirt. I definitely wouldn't be proud to announce that Sami was my mom. She's only been "good" for a month, that doesn't excuse the other thirteen years of sh!t she's pulled.

Kate was harsh to Chelsea, but she needed it, and Kate was actually right for a change. Chelsea has not endeared herself to Bo, Hope, and Shawn, and despite a few hugs from Bo and Hope during the holidays, she will never really be a real part of that family. I do sympathize with her because her adopted parents are dead and aside from Kate, Billie, and Nick, she really doesn't have anyone who truly cares for her. But her actions and attitude have not made her totally rootable yet. But she's trying, and we do know she has a human side.

Don't ya love it when Shawn punches Philip in the hospital and there's no staff around? Philip better be careful around Marlena. The devil can come back at anytime. :lol:

I have watched Friday's episode a couple of times. It was just a feast! There was something for everyone.

My two favorite stories were the Shelle Clairnapping and the Patch/EJ faceoff. I love having Jay Johnson back as Philip. He makes a good adversary to Shawn I loved Shawn's temper flare that resulted in giving our pretty Philip a few punches on his "new" face. LOL Martha Madison is shining as the anguished, heart-broken mother who is also stressed over the fate of her father.

Oh Mexico! You have never looked so good. The scenes with SN and JS were just delicious. The ebb and flow of dialogue as one character played cat to the other's mouse(and those roles kept switching}. The scenes were just brilliant in writing, direction, camera work and acting. Both SN and JS use everything at their disposal to enhance a scene. Loved the senorita too! Lusty EJ is never dull. Who would have thought that handsome James Scott would be so lethally sexy as shaggy and bearded? Not me, but oh he is! Yum!!!!

I love how Hogan Sheffer is slowly redeeming Chelsea, as he reveals more and more of what really motivates her. I think I will end up really liking her, whereas the JER one dimensional brat, I just hated. Kudos to HS and to Rachel Melvin for being such a fine young actress. I do hope that Sheffer will have Kate understand her granddaughter a bit better. I like the dynamic between the two and Friday, Kate just seemed at a loss when it came to Chelsea's true feelings.

As Tony Tiger says, Friday on Days was just "GGGGGGGGGGGGGGrrrrrrrrrrrrrreattttttttttttttttt !!!!"

Friday's was a fantastic episode--I loved every minute! But what really got my heart thumping was Belle's good-bye to her dad. I loved the "pocket" story, and she played that scene so beautifully! The EJ/Steve scenes were my second favorite. It took me a minute to realize Steve was faking. Loved whatever technique it was they used to film the fight scenes. Usually the DAYS fight scenes are very cheap and cheesy looking so it was nice to see some high quality work. I found EJ's line about Benji to be very intriguing also; I have the feeling EJ has something on Benji that he's using to coerce him into doing things he doesn't really want to do. It will be fun to see that played out.

Well i just loved everything about fridays episode...Kudos to the cast for great performances all around...My favorite parts were Belle/John/Marlena, Sami/Chelsea (love when these two share scenes together), Steve/EJ (can't wait for more interactions) and finally the getaway scene..Very dramatic...This claire custody story is the best story shawn, belle, shawn and phillip have ever had on the show...and its great having three capable actors in the role..FINALLY...

One other thing i really liked was that Bo, Hope, and Kayla joined in to congratulate Sami, i'm glad Sami's family is finally proud of her...Even if she can't be honest about how she saved Lucas, she did do a good thing and she has changed for the better...

With that said i can't wait till mondays episode, next week should be very exciting..

    • 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.
