Members jonphil Posted January 30, 2007 Members Share Posted January 30, 2007 I love how the writers are slowly developing Shawn and Belle as a romatic couple. They had some really nice moments today that were classic Days romance moments. Like when Shawn said he would do anything for the people that he.....then he paused and said something else. I love moments like that. Couples need to be brought along slowly so that the audience can't wait for that kiss or that special moment. I think Days has the potential for 3 strong new couples in Shawn/Belle, Max and Abby, and Nick and Chelsea. I know Shawn/Belle are not really new, but it seems that way with a new writer and 2 new people portraying them. I really liked today's show. Great to see Nick and Chelsea getting involved in this storyline also. I think that this story is one of the best we have had on Days in a long time.

Members Nixsoaps Posted January 30, 2007 Members Share Posted January 30, 2007 I really enjoyed todays show. Chelsea is finally going to bond with her family, yeah! RO-Man, has he always been so annoying? Loved how the Michigan police described the wild man. Loving Shawn and Belle taking things slow. Poor Claire, she was just a bundle of pink today. Thank goodness Nick has brains other wise who knows what someone would have said when they picked up the phone. I missed the commercial. I heard the name EJ twice, but saw it was a cherrios commercial and paid no attention. Hope they air it tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ives Posted January 30, 2007 Members Share Posted January 30, 2007 And another favorite sibling super couple - Bo and Kayla! There was a really cute moment when the payphone was ringing and Kayla has her hand on Bo's arm - showing support and helping restrain him from running to the phone. Also liked seeing Bo defend Kayla to Roman and ask whether he is saying Kayla is lying. "Reaching for seconds." The funny thing about that line is Steve Johnson said the exact same line a somewhat similar situation almost 20 years ago. Hard to believe it is purely a coincidence. So are the writers being extremely detail oriented with history or is Stephen Nichols tweaking his scripts? LOL The slow build for Belle and Shawn is good. On the run provides great opportunities for sexual tension. I think Claire will be taking a lot of naps. Also, rather than the log in a blanket. Isn't there anyway they could have had one of the twins sleeping and filmed it ahead of time. Given their age, they are probably still taking at least one long nap during the day. Chelsea kind of charmed me today - go figure. Roman - it was kind of painful how he did not seem to fit in with the ease and comfort that we see with Kayla and Bo, Bo and Steve, etc. Intentional or is it that Josh Taylor doesn't have the mutual rapport and comfort like they might otherwise have with each other?

Members Jinxed Soul Posted January 30, 2007 Members Share Posted January 30, 2007 I watched the episode again after coming here and reading about the Cheerios commercial. I don't really pay attention to commercials. That's hilarious! A couple of things to add: Shawn and Belle do have a very different relationship right now. Even though they ran off for the sake of their daughter, I'm very surprised that they haven't talked about the future. It has been unspoken, but considering there on the run together, the plan is to spend their lives together. I'm hoping to see more development in their relationship soon. I'm loving Chelsea and Nick! I would actually like to see him be honest with her about Lonely Splicer, and hopefully she would forgive him in time knowing his reasoning. The truth is bound to come out, and I imagine it will happen just as things are going very well for both of them. Lastly, why do the put those hideous flower headbands on Claire everyday, like in the pic below? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jinxed Soul Posted January 30, 2007 Members Share Posted January 30, 2007 Another think to add: I read some discussions above about Roman and how he was being unfair. Agreeing not to arrest or at the very least not question Bonnie and Conner, was surprisng and very wrong! As far as the kidnapping situation, Roman played it very well, IMO. He questioned Steve, Kayla and Bo, leaving them with a warning that he is aware that they are likely disclosing less information that they have knowledge of. I think Roman had enough evidence to further investigate those three individuals. I'm sure he could've done something like fingerprints on the stolen truck. By agreeing to drop the matter unless futher evidence appears, Roman is helping the Brady family. In both matters, Roman is doing his job and being leniant to his family and friends.

Members Bree Posted January 30, 2007 Members Share Posted January 30, 2007 I like that Shawn and Belle are taking things slow. For them to have sex while they're on the run is stupid and cliched. By having them focus on Claire and making a family for her instead of sleeping together, it shows some maturity. I loved Shawn and Belle stroking each others' faces, then Shawn taking her hand and kissing it. It was very sweet without being sappy. DAYS is doing right by not instantly throwing couples together (except for Max and Mimi) and building up their stories and relationships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jinxed Soul Posted January 30, 2007 Members Share Posted January 30, 2007 I definitely like the slow development. However, with a couple like Belle and Shawn, it seems a little weird because they never use to be that way. But, I guess that goes to show they've grown up. I'm glad you brought up Mimi and Max though, Bree. Theres definitely no slow development in that relationship though, lol! I felt so awful for Abby though. I imagine if Mimi had not stepped into the picture, she would've had her chance with Max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rhiannon Posted January 30, 2007 Members Share Posted January 30, 2007 I wondered the same thing because those scenes were painful to watch..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jinxed Soul Posted January 30, 2007 Members Share Posted January 30, 2007 If Bo and Kayla weren't siblings, I think those two would have a lot of potential for a very strong relationship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ives Posted January 31, 2007 Members Share Posted January 31, 2007 I loved how Bo had his arm around Kayla's shoulder most of the time they were sitting in the pub - very cozy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ilovesteveandkayla Posted January 31, 2007 Members Share Posted January 31, 2007 I love their sibling relationship, but I can certainly see what you mean. Those two work so well, and look so good together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
