Indeed, what a lame twist... I started to like the character, and I'm still somewhat surprised she is the shooter. Hasn't she signed a contract recently? And does that mean they won't get rid of her soon?

ITA with Josh. Kreizman does not know pacing. It's kind of ridiculous, in fact. I don't know why Ellen Wheeler, who should know better, is letting this happen.

Ashley is a horrible actress. Or her dialogue sucks. Or they're letting her improv too much. I think she said "I DON'T KNOW" about 8 times in her little monologue today!

It's both.

Caitlin VanZandt is GL's answer to ALL THAT'S Lori Beth Denberg. They both play "token fat chick." GL initially hired her for this reason and this reason only. To show Lizzie being mean to the fat girl, similar to Jen and Marcie on OLTL when Marcie first arrived. Difference is that Kathy Brier rose above the material and gave great performances. VanZandt is still playing that comedic token angle.

And I don't really have a problem with VanZandt on GL or her appearance. It just seems, to me, like this is all forced and a way for TPTB to add "diversity" to their show. Only problem is that they are making her into a caricature instead of clearly addressing what makes her different from everyone else on the canvas and they should have done that the moment she arrived.

It seems like there's an undertone or subtext of that in the dialogue, but it is never fully addressed.

After my shock of her being the shooter..

My next thought was..

THAT GIRL IS A SPAULDING!!!

Come on...

She shoots Alan..we don't have a clue. She goes on as if life is ok. She's happy and anticipatory about her birthday party.

This girl is a Spaulding in the making, and that was her initiation right.

I don't care HOW they do it. Whose long lost child she winds up being (cause Doris can't be her biological mother anymore)...

Make her a Spaulding.

I swear Alan already respects her for plugging him.

Ashlee Spaulding!!! YES YES YES

They can find a way to kill off Doris and blame her for it too. ...but, Ashley needs to be someone's long lost daughter.

    • Today was a short one. Only 33 minutes.  The ‘Part One’ graphic at the beginning was pretty interesting though. I didn’t expect them to do something like that.  I like how everything was focused around John and his family and friends. Again, the acting and the dialogue was very well done and well written. And I love that they were able to incorporate Drake’s, “swing for the fences” phrase into the script. It was nice seeing everyone interact with each other, especially characters who don’t often share scenes together. It felt like every character was part of a big family or community. Plus, an outdoor funeral in June makes a lot more sense than an outdoor funeral in December.  But yeah, it’s very, very strange that Will isn’t at the funeral, especially since we know that

      I would much rather he had been there today. And, where’s Anna too? And Jack and Jennifer? What was the point of bringing them all back if they weren’t going to attend the funeral? I expected Steve to want to close down BlackPatch, though I’d rather he just retire and let Paul take it over. But I like that Kayla was there to comfort him. I wonder if he’s going to change his mind at some point.  It was nice seeing Shane again too. Now, he just needs to have more scenes with his son lol but I enjoyed seeing him comfort Marlena. I’m not really sure about his interaction with Cat though? Was it really necessary for this to happen now, at John’s funeral? They could’ve waited a little longer to introduce this story arc.  Btw, was Tate bleeding from his head in his first scene with Arianna?

    • This is wonderful! Thank you for posting this! I loved the first two seasons and never got to see the final season when they cancelled the DVD release. I've been hoping this popped up on streaming but no luck. Happy I'll finally get to see how it ended!

    • In case it is of interest to anyone here, I have digital copies (computer files, mp4 etc.) of all of the episodes. And, besides having the files they are all up on my usual video hosting site, acct name: shallotpeel, channel it is in: Primetime Soaps and file names like  Flamingo Road S1E15 Hurricane Flamingo Road was a primetime soap on NBC by Lorimar Productions. 2 seasons. 1980-1982.

    • Arguably DAYS OF OUR LIVES has been brilliant lately & definitely was last week. But, here I am with nitpick & technicalities. This was the only misstep but it was just a stupid thing that should have been caught. Deidre Hall as Marlena has this one problematic line, "It didn't matter how many identities you had, I always knew exactly who you were, you were the man who saved my life." - Marlena, DAYS, 6-2-25 Unfortunately the flashback closest to it was when Marlena was on the phone, terrified because she thought he was Stefano. Yes, it's true that the line is not accurate. There were many times when she did not feel the way she is claiming because of whatever was going on in story with his 'retconned to hell & back' identity & origin story. Does it keep the whole week from being called excellent? Nope.
