Just starting to watch, but I have to say I loved this exchange:

Room service waiter "Couple in their late 20s, average guy with a hot blonde?"

Philip "Yep, that's them"

Kate "He's not average. That's my son"

Waiter "Yeah, I can see the resemblance"

LOL funny.

And nuStephanie is slutty. Reminds me of Chelsea. What kind of blood is running through those Brady veins anyway?

nuStephanie has tapped into her inner wild streak (which she comes by very naturally) but I'm not sure we can call her slutty if she's only just now sleeping with her first boyfriend.

Still reserving judgment on her but I think I might like her. She seems to have good chemistry with Kayla and Abby so far. We'll see how she is with Steve, and I want to see her with Chelsea too.

A big hell no to nuStephanie! :angry: What the hell did they do to this character? She's everything Shayna Rose's Stephanie wasn't, and I'm not impressed. Stephanie was not a slut. She was not high maintenance either. nuStephanie reminds me of the old Chelsea and Stephanie and Chelsea are two entirely different characters. That's why they were so great opposite each other. Now, they're the same person. And Shelley Henning is a complete miscast for Steve and Kayla's daughter. I would rather see her as a Chelsea recast. She's just not Stephanie. I'm going to give her more time, but I'm not hopefull.

Belle vs. Gabby was excellent! Give it to that bitch, Belle!

Finally! Who would have known it would take "evil and psycho" Philip (to some) to be Kate's voice of reason. When he told her that her act in interferring with Lucas and Sami is getting old, I wanted to kiss the man! :lol: Thank God!

I agree with you concerning Stephanie. She's just another version of Chelsea now. And is trying to corrupt Abby, too! What is it with DAYS--are they trying to form a bad girls club? Psycho Gabby, scheming and manipulative Willow, narcissistic and irresponsible Chelsea and now Stephanie's releasing her inner bad girl. The actress seems fine, and even her wardrobe would be okay for hanging out with her friends at a club--not for having lunch with her mother at a nice restaurant to discuss her father's problems. They should have given us back Shayna Rose's Stephanie (who was okay after she dropped the getting her parents back together angle) or just left her in Ohio.

I'm probably going to get slammed for this, but if Sami drops that match with the intention of burning EJ alive--well, all of a sudden EJ's raping her sort of pales in comparison, don't you think?

Loved Philip today. This is the way he should be written, not as a screaming nut job. And it was great hearing him tell Kate all the stuff that fans are thinking. It's been 10 years, Kate! Stop with the Sami feud!

nuStephanie was fine. I liked Shayna Rose too but I don't see the drastic change as far as the character. She was a race car driver and her father's daughter. Of course, she will have a wild streak. Plus, when Shayna was Stephanie she told her mother she had lots of boyfriends so is it really a stretch that she would start acting like this? She was kind of hurt by Max and was doing nothing when she left so I could see why she changed. I know she was corrupting Abby but that is what young girls talk about. I thought it was realisitic and she is gorgeous. She also connected well with Abby and Kayla. I look forward to her interacting with Steve and Chelsea. Her acting was pretty good. Yes, the look is different but I think they wanted to change the character anyway since alot of Days fans didn't like how Stephanie was uer Shayna Rose. People thought she didn't look like Steve and Kayla either. This one doesn't really either but I feel more of a connection between her and those around her but to each their own. I did like her and think she will get better with time. I enjoyed her scenes with Abby and Kayla.

Shelle was filler yet again but it sets the stage well for next week. Duck would be interesting with Maggie but I am through with Gabby. I liked her before but she is grating now, despite me fondess for Joy Bisco. I think Duck works because he isn't shoved down our throats. He is recurring and pops in and out so that makes him tolerable and alot easier to get used to.

I was so glad Philip called Kate out on her interference with Sami and Lucas. JKJ and LK work well together and it's nice to see Philip in the typical Lucas role of being Kate's partner in crime. I enjoyed their scenes. I chuckled when Kate called Roman.

Sami/EJ/Celeste was so good. Finally we have movement and finally we have arrived. Great scenes and a true cliffhanger ending. Tanya and Ali were fantastic and I can't wait until Monday. This was the episode I have been waiting for and I think this may be where the show turns a corner as the EJ story has finally reached a major turning point.

IMO, there's a big difference between having a wild side and being a complete slut. Shayna's Stephanie, I could see being wild in a way where she would mix it up with the boys and wouldn't be afraid to get her hands dirty. I could see Shayna's Stephanie drinking with the guys and being a real tomboy. That was the way they were writing her and I loved it. She was written very well. I could see her just slugging a guy for making a sexist remark.

NuStephanie? I see her kissing a guy for making a sexist remark and I see her taking it as a compliment. This isn't Stephanie. nuStephanie is nothing but Chelsea about 2 years ago, when Rachel Melvin first joined the show. She was boy crazy. That's how nuStephanie is.

I liked these scenes a lot. I don't know what direction this story is going to take, but it has a lot of potential now that it's moving. I just hope it keeps moving and doesn't get bogged down again. Celeste was scary today! And part of me is really surprised Sami is proceeding with this plan. Burning someone alive--wow. I understand EJ is an evil Dimera (by the way, burning a Dimera--the phoenix--might not be the best choice if you want them to stay dead), but that's still pretty extreme. In the past Sami has done a lot of scheming and lying, but this goes way beyond that. A lot of people have wondered if they were going to redeem EJ so he and Sami can be a couple because they have a lot of chemistry together. Maybe it will be the opposite. Maybe Sami will go to the dark side for real now. Could be interesting.

    • yes. today Monday's episode started with words displayed "part 1" and ended with "to be continued"
    • I find Missy Reeve's views offensive and I don't want to defend her, but I don't think she ever said anything publicly about Days "gay content".   In fact, I don't think she's ever said anything negative about Days at all.  There's no indication Missy is difficult or unprofessional on set-except for the whole affair thing years ago lol-but that's a whole different topic. I can dislike Missy as a person and still think she's the perfect fit for Jen.  Cady tried and it didn't work for me.  Whenever Missy steps into the role it works.  It's a two things can be true situation.  Missy has some bad opinions, but she's great at playing Jennifer.
    • Doesn't the funeral go into Tuesday 
    • Christian Streaty wrote her second freelance script today on Days. Surprised they gave the first funeral episode to a newbie.  
    • And the third thing, which I have no cite for, and I may look to see if one is findable, but supposedly she said that the show had too much gay content in it. And, to be fair, that could be someone making a criticism about balance & not be bigotry but when it's added to the other, that's why it bugs people.

      The greatest tv series season finale in history.   
    • 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 the coldest early June in my life. It's like it's January.
