Put me on the ED bandwagon too :lol: .

Good show today.

I enjoyed the Shelle scenes. They really are being written well. Loved it when Belle compared Shawn to her father.

Victor/Lucas was good. I love that Hogan remembered how Lucas and Victor always had a father/son like relationship. Victor looked a bit upset when Lucas refused and told him to shove it. John Aniston always gives a great performance and he did so again today. Dattilo was solid too. Good scenes.

Loving Abby/Chelsea friendship scenes. Finally they are talking about normal things and not Nick, Max, and other stuff like that. I like them going to college and all. Loving the progression of Chelsea and Nick and I like that they are going to get dragged in to the on the run story.

Sami/EJ was great. Scott and Sweeney were on fire. It was very much like the old Marlena/Stefano confrontations. Love it when she calls him Elvis and her Samantha (Brandon called her it too but I digress).

Great stuff today. Very good week for Days.

Victor gives Lucas an ultimatum (bring back Claire or seek another job), the same day that EJ declares that he's ready to re-open his business and needs a partner ... coincidence? That outta be interesting.

Nick and Chelsea are really spiking my interest! Although, her transition from getting over Dr. Pattan (sp?) and having a thing for Nick happened too quick, IMO.

And, dammit, where are Hope and "Doodle-bug"?

I don't think Sami will go back to Mythic.

Lucas is determined to have her stay at home while she is pregnant. I don't think he will agree to letting her work. Rather, I think Lucas will go work for EJ.

That way, EJ has even more control, IMO. He can send Lucas away on non-stop business trips, and keep him busy.

While I LOVE your theory as well, I thought on Friday we already established that Lucas conceded his "male pride" would not get in the way of Sami's working? (the whole, this isn't the 1950s conversation).

But whatever.

So long as EJ has his chance with Sami -- and several at that -- I'm a happy camper!

EJami are SO where it's at.

Yeah, I saw that!

Yet, Sami is frightened of EJ, isn't she? Well, maybe not really frightened, but that's what she told Lucas, right? I can't imagine him letting his girlfriend spend so much (work) time with someone who she claims to be afraid of.

The way I imagine this working out is, Sami has already told EJ there is no way she would work for him. I think Lucas is going to run into EJ and make a deal with him and tell Sami about it afterwards.

I could be totally wrong. But, I just have a feeling that Lucas and EJ will be partnering up.

*BTW, Hi JSF! Been a while since those BB days!*

Just got to watch the episode, and it was a great end to an exciting week...Loved EJ and Sami's scenes..Ali and James rocked and play so well off each other..I agree with kenny, i got excited when Sami called him Elvis...

Chelsea and Nick were great once again, i love them..Hogan has worked wonders with Chelsea's character, and i can't wait to watch her get involved with the shelle story...The end with the phone ringing was a good cliffhanger...

Also it was nice to see John Aniston again...

    • 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.
