AHH! Did anyone see the Cheerio's commercial that aired during DAYS?

Last week, Steve was having headaches, trying to remember his past, hearing thumps, and something else...

I'm really enjoying these. Do any of the other soaps do it? I know ATWT does.

Jay is doing a great job. But, Phillip will never be a Victor Jr. He's vastly different from Victor. Victor doesn't whine and complain when things don't go his way - he takes action. Like, when he told Phillip to let go of his hatred and work on getting Claire back, not seeking revenge. That would've been the right thing to do because it would've given him a clearer, more focussed mind helping him to get Claire back faster and secure his happiness with her. Instead, he's plotting revenge and as a result, not thinking straight.

What the hell is a "bad pony?"

If Steve is a pony, does that mean I can ride him?

Loved the Steve/EJ/Kayla scenes today. SO glad to be seeing some movement in the "episodes." Steve freaking out and attacking EJ in a public place, in front of Kayla has to mean movement right? EJ is just so freakishly, deliciously, evil. He charms me even when he's driving my poor Steve out of his gourd. Loved Kayla's "Look at me!" I think we're finally going to get fiesty Kayla back. It's about damn time.

I'm still reserving judgment on NuOldPhillip. He's doing a pretty good job but part of me still believes Kyle Brandt had more potential as a believable villain and Victor's heir apparent.

Nick and Chelsea still charm me. I hope the writers don't make her too nice.

I cringed through most of the Sami/Kate/Lucas scenes today. Mainly because it's just ludicrous to try to have someone re-enact something they were able to do because of adrenaline. "It's okay, ma'am. This car weighs only half as much as the one you lifted off your child. You should be able to lift it easily." Just stupid.

Still hate Willow. I think it's mainly her mouth. Not what she says but how she moves it. It's just annoying.

Can anyone transcribe the Cheerios commercial? I was zoned out and only heard "undergone hypnotherapy."

Claire's adlibbed "da da" was adorable today. Those twins are keepers.

Loved the new Cheerio commercial.

Great show today. Best show in probably over a week IMo. Some good movement today.

I am loving Chelsea and Nick. She was so proud of herself. Loved their scenes with Belle and Shane. Claire is too cute.

Great acting from all involved.

JKJ is tearing it up. Loved his scenes. He has so much intensity and passion in his scenes. Martha and him were awesome. Great scenes.

Loved the part where Willow was crying and the old guy that helped Belle and Shawn said she wasn't alone. I think he wanted some service :lol: I am tolerating Willow a bit more lately.

Sami/Lucas/Kate was ok. I didn't care for reenacting everything but whatever. It will be worth it to get to the good stuff that follows. I just love Kate though. Lauren is just awesome. I felt this was the weakest part of the episode but it wasn't too bad. Things moved at least.

Steve/Kayla/EJ was great. Finally we see fire in Kayla. I love that she is involved now instead of on the outside. SN, MBE, and JS were so good. Steve losing it because of the tapping was great. Intense stuff indeed. I can't beleive I am saying this but the SFX worked well for once. That ending scene of Steve running in and then the quick shots of him and EJ going through the window were really good. I usually hate this sort of things but for some reason the ending worked for me.

Great show though. Good start to the week.

Today's episode was simply AMAZING. The pace was so much faster than the past couple of weeks. I loved it!

Philip and Belle... No words to describe those intense scenes. Martha Madison is such an incredible actress and Jay Johnson has really been impressing me as of late. When they were yelling at eachother, I got goosebumps, lol.

The Steve/EJ/Kayla scenes were... fantastic! When Steve pulled the knife out on EJ, that really scared me. I had no idea that was going to happen. As well as the ending with the both of them fighting and flying out the window... I never expected that. I'm trying to stay away from as many spoilers as I can.

Today's show was INCREDIBLE! Tomorrow looks great as well! DAYS has really stepped it up a BIG notch. I loooove it!:)

I think I'm in the Jay is not doing a good job side. Kyle Brandt, suprisingly, was just perfect in the role of heir apparent with a very vulnerable spot for Claire. I could see him going off the edge a little, scary lethal - while still having that believable soft side over Claire. Jay just kind of annoys me with the way he's performing this all - I'm not feeling it. He is whine-screaming every line. I was expecting better both in terms of acting and writing.

The girl who plays Belle, she really is very good.

    • @TaoboiI ran into Dani’s favorite party planner again tonight

    • 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.)
    • 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.
