First of all, I just have to comment on the absurdity for Zoe burning her hand THAT badly on the skillet. The skillet had been off the stove for a while so it couldn't have been THAT hot. And even if it was, Zoe didn't have her hand on it that long to warrant all of those hysterics. :rolleyes:

Loved the Adam/Colby scenes, too. Ambyr has grown a lot. It's great that they've fleshed out Colby and gave her scenes opposite Bobbie and David these last few months. Nothing like working with professionals, rather than actors who are just as green as you (Sydney actress, Sean actor).

Leven was great. She sold the two characters. It's interesting to see her play someone reacting to Lily. Ava acted a bit startled when Lily went into her "Don't touch! Don't touch!" bit. Very smooth move.

Jeff Branson... I'm really not sold. You may be a genuinely sweet guy in real life, but your acting is grating my last nerve. Seriously. STOP WATCHING JACOB YOUNG AND TAKE IT DOWN TWELVE NOTCHES!!! Ugh! All of that monotone yelling and shouting. I don't buy into Jonathan's upset and anger, I just want him to shut the fcuk up and sit his ass down!

Cameron and Thorsten clearly couldn't keep a straightface during the ACS Looney Tune Merry Melody scene.

Ryan had like five lines today. Beautiful. Now, let's shoot for a mere three! Yes?:unsure:

I am not invested in Zoe/Bianca. Not only do I find the story to be a major cop out, but I don't get any "romantic" energy from their scenes. There's more sparks when Bianca is spewing rhetoric from the Babe Is Love bible she wrote, than these scenes with Zoe.

OMG! Did you see how that extra walked past Zach and Kendall in the courthouse?! WASN'T THAT JUST THE MOST HORRENDOUS THING YOU HAVE EVER SEEN?! IT'S A SIN AGAINST GOD TO HAVE ALL OF THOSE EXTRAS JUST WALKING AROUND! I can't believe it! Can you believe it? Well I just CAN'T believe it! I am THOROUGHLY DISGUSTED by such a LACK of respect!

UGH!

R,

I wanted to wait and get your opinion on the eppy before I posted, but now that I have, I'm still confused. I thought yesterday was a really bad eppy...

Adam and Colby were good, but it was just another person telling Adam to "GET OVER IT".

Zoe and Bianca - the story is absurb! Bianca is a trisexual, and Zoe's story was never really told. I know you are disappointed as well, but I thought it beared mentioning again.

The courtroom was a huge joke. Not only is Jonathan ridiculous, but he's living in one of his victim's house RENT FREE!!!!

Ava and Lily were boring, and Leven (love that name) is a really boring actress. I saw her on SVU, and she almost put me to sleep. But this is another story gone wrong. Why are both so accepting of one another so soon? I can see Lily possibly doing this, but Ava? Makes no sense!

Tad and Jamie as the forces against Adam? Hah!

It was nice to see Hannah, but it would have been even nicer had she more than 1 1/2 lines!

I hope this show gets better.

I didn't necessarily enjoy the episode. I don't like anything that's going on right now. But I do think Leven is doing a good job, having studied acting myself the last 8 years, I know it's sooo not easy to play two distinctly opposite characters. For a 16 year old with virtually no training, she's doing an amazing job. Do I enjoy this Ava Benton Comes Out of Nowhere story? No, I think it's a joke. I think all of the stories are ridiculous. The Adam Revenge storyline went horribly wrong. The Zoe/Bianca storyline, again, is a farce. The rest of the characters just seem to be spinning their wheels. So don't mistake my finding rays of light in this overall garbage as enjoying the episode. I'm just trying to have faith that this is only a slump which will end after this transition period is over.

    • Mick Savage was sooo unbearable. And more unbearable was the reaction from the female characters to him - they were acting like he is God's gift to women and sooo irresistible. To a point of unbelievable cringe. 
    • 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.
