Definitely loved seeing the old Steve again.

I still say this story is not his or Kayla's. A new obstacle? Sure. The actual mechanics of the story work for them, or would if they were being played out less isolated (like they have in very few instances), but honestly, we've had now three men by the DiMera family turned into mercenaries. It's not fair to fans of any to see someone else fill a role that's not really theirs.

The way I see it, someone should have been interfering with his remembering. Considering that he was being a liability to Lawrence Alamain (and nameless anyone else's who could have been involved. Victor comes to mind, but I don't know what he was up to those days. Mostly doting on Isabella, I believe.), hid remembering should have been not wanted at all. I would have liked to see the tarot cards be use as a key to keeping him from remembering, as they were introduced as an integral part of the story early on. Now, it's laughable. He remembers, and no one seems to care. That is absolutely lazy. Why the hell did someone arrange his death for? Defend the show all you want, this whole execution has sucked. Thank all that his wonderful for Stephen Nichols, and to a lesser extent, Mary Beth Evans.

I think we should have seen Mary Beth on the show long before Stephen. The characters were developed in isolation, and therefore, not really developed. All Kayla could think about or breathe was Steve. No. Are you trying to tell me she has existed for 16 years? How did she successfully raise a daughter who's not nearly psychotic, or manage to become a doctor? I do believe she never got over Steve and that she never dealt with it. But it wasn't played the right way from day one (and we all know who to thank for that).

I apologize for the rant. :lol:

I was a little bored but it was a pretty good show actually.

Highlights for me were Kayla/Max and Steve. Loved Max with personality. Poor Darin. He really needs to be used more.

And yes, Stephen Nichols saved the show. He's just pure brilliance. He is amazing as Steve.

    • Thursday & Friday's episodes were excellent. The build-up was most definitely worth the wait (2 months). TMG, I can't give her enough accolades. AM, was also absolutely incredible. I think the fallout is going to have a ripple effect. The little clues that have been dropped,  hopefully, will weave seamlessly to reveal even bigger bombshells for the Dupree's and Martin.
    • Thanks, msn drives me nuts on the one hand but on the other hand their headlines appeal to me. And, I just don't do FoxNews.  She is trolling this thread.
    • The link doesn't work.  The actual link is this: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/composer-leonard-bernstein-s-children-request-his-music-be-played-in-the-kennedy-center-in-rebuke-to-trump/ar-AA1E7gw5 That's a reprint of a FoxNews article. MSN reprints stuff from many sources. You can tell the source from the logo above the headline on the msn page. The FoxNews article is describing what Leonard Bernstein's children wrote -- as a "letter to the editor" of the New York Times. Instead of reading it filtered through FoxNews, here is the original: "Our Dad, Leonard Bernstein, Would Want His Music Played at the Kennedy Center" https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/02/opinion/kennedy-center-leonard-bernstein-protest.html Non-paywall archived copy of the same NYTimes letter, without commentary: https://archive.is/QaLqD
    • Might be a long shot, because I can't find a thing online about it, but I was Googling the actress that played Nell Cleary (Frank's cop friend that went through academy and then became cops together during the entire Brent Lawrence storyline). To my surprise, she passed away in 2011, at the very young age of 45. I can't find her obituary or anything online about her passing, but I'm curious, does anyone know what happened? Her IMDB only shows a few other acting gigs post-Guiding Light, so she didn't make a career out of it, but I thought she was a great actress in her role as Cleary. Her name was Mary Peterson.
    • What was Ruth Martin's association to the Thornton family?  I only remember the daughter that dated Tad, and she had a buxom mother.  But, did Ruth date David Thorton before Joe?

      Why didn't Steve respect Monica and Jeff's decision?  I get he's Jeff's father, and that's how it came out, but I don't like the ethics of the story. A stranger gets to make life or death decisions over a wife's demands?   I hope Monica secretly never forgave Steve's chauvinism.
    • Question: Jon-Michael Reed's review of 1977 is up in the retro soap section.  It includes a fleeting reference to comedic scenes between Jeanne Cooper and Julianna McCarthy regarding “Kay's would-be beau, Ralph the Plumber”.  Could someone please fill me in will more details? I forgot that Kay and Liz were friendly before Jill stole Kay's husband.  And the thought of Liz playing a comedic scene blows my mind, because I only recall her being dour both in demeanor and wardrobe.  
    • I said this on Twitter on Friday when Leslie mentioned Chicago, so perhaps she might be related to one of Anita's bandmates. In addition, Leslie did say she grew up listening to The Articulettes too.
    • There was a scene in the past week or two with Leslie looking at some papers and mementos, which included an invitation or souvenir from Alan's memorial service or funeral -- it was dated as November 2024. Me just guessing but it seems to me that Martin's nightmares about the accident are from something longer ago than November.
    • ah thanks! do you know who the third one was in the blonde? the fifth one i know ive seen before in the brown wig but i forgot, and then ive never seen the psychic one before lol
