WOW so far a really good episode. And OMFG nuAlison sounds AND looks like Rosanna! I honestly heard Rosanna's voice and I was just as shocked as Paul. This is going to be very interesting. ZR is just killing me as Casey. God if he was boyfriend I'd never look anywhere else again.

So pretty good show today, nothing fantastic, but just ok. I was able to stand Cleo and Gwen alot more today seeing has we had a nice break from them last week, plus for once the Will and Gwen stuff was interesting, I liked how they used some history in there scenes, that always helps. I loved the Luke and Jade scenes, nice to see some long scenes with Luke for a change. I am really starting to dislike Alison. Best part of the show had to be the family drama with Margo/Tom/Casey/Maddie those scenes were very good, and I enjoyed the flashbacks mixed it. Also of interest to me today was Luke bringing up Kevin's name and also saying they had become friends again.

For the last few episodes I have tried very hard to give this Cleo character a shot. I haven't muted the tv when she's on, I havedn't changed the channel, I've listened to what she has to say, and how she says it, but after giving myself time to get used to her, I can honestly and without hesitation say that I hate her f****** guts. The teeth, the eye fluttering, the facial expressions, what she says and the way she says it...it all makes me ill. I want to throw something at the tv everytime she's on. I don't think I've EVER experienced this level of hate for a soap character before in my life, and you know what, I'm really starting to hate Jennifer Landon because of it. Yeah, it's worked it's way into the way I feel about the actor, because it's her acting choices that are influencing the level of hate I feel for the character.

I really just want to watch Craig and Lucinda and Lily and Holden and Margo and ANYBODY but her. I have to go back to muting that....person, for the sake of my sanity.

Anyway, I really enjoyed Margo and Tom today, they are always so great to see together, and I thought Casey and Maddie were sweet. I couldn't get into Alison or Paul, though.

Drew, that's "Babbitt" not "Babbit". :P And I sort of like her, but I would like her a whole lot better without all the annoying nonstop blinking and that shrill voice.

As far as Alison/Rosanna, Drew, they're wanting us to hear the similarities in Alison's voice and Rosanna's voice. According to an interview, Marnie Schulenberg said that was the buzz behind the scenes when she started work at ATWT and then all of a sudden, there it was in the script. I personally hear a little smilarity, but not a whole lot.

Elena Goode needs to grow her hair back out. I also found out quit interesting how they were talking today (Jade/Luke) about Jade standing up tp Kevin at Raven Lake when I just watched those clips on Youtube last night. :P

Tom/Margo were heartbreaking, but I'm glad Zach R is leaving. I wasn't ever really that into him. And yes, even though he's gotten alot better, it's been a long time coming for him to leave. I just hope Tom/Margo aren't immediately backburnered again now that Casey, Daniel and Adam are all off the screen. Whatta ya'll think?

Well, Karl Girolamo is back filming and most of the time when they mention someone not seen in a while, they ususally are on their way back. So is the case (I hope and pray) with Rosanna.

And I don't see Levin being back friends as anything new. :huh: That happened way back last summer after Kevin apologized for treating Luke the way he did and the two decided to start over and be the way they used to be.

Van looked HOT today.

The Paul and Alison scenes and the Emily mentions were the closest I've gotten to a Paul and Emily scene since December so I'll take it. I liked the look Paul had on his face at the end. A touch of the Stenbeck emerges!

Nice Masey montage!

With last week's preemption,today was Friday's show.

I loved the Luke and Jade interaction. Luke makes Jade more likable. I do like her better then when she first started. I read somewhere about Karl Girolamo making some more appearances so I guess that is why Luke mentioned Kevin.

I agree with the comments on Cleo's voice and eye fluttering. I wish they would slow down on this story. Maybe one or two days a week!

Marnie (Ali) does sound a lot like Cady(Rosanna). I would rather see her in that plot then the cliched' crystal meth thing where she is approaching the thugs for drugs.

The Hughes drama was great. Loved how they brought up Casey's kidnapping.

Zach Roering has grown as an actor. I didn't like him at first but now I do.

Since I have grown to like Zach and Elena I guess there is hope for Marnie too.

I'm so sick of Squinty McSquint. She needs to leave ASAP!

Aw... Poor Casey. NOT! Don't drop the soap, bitch.

Alison=Rosanna? WTF?!?! I see nothing similar between them. The last thing Paul needs is another storyline. He's in the Craig/Meg thing and is Parker and Faith's mentor.

Don't feel sorry for Maddie. Nope. Not one bit.

:lol:

"Dont' drop the soap, bitch", "Squinty McSquint", etc.

:lol: You always crack me up with your posts!!!

Though I must diagree, I do sort of hear a slight similarity between Alison's voice and Rosanna's voice. It would be nice if they would show a flashback of Rosanna saying something and then Alison saying the same thing in present time. Maybe that would truly highlight the likeness between their voices. Make it stand out more, like "Hey! This is what we're comparing between Ali and Rosanna!"

And I also disagree about "Squinty McSquint". :P I think "Blinky McSquinty" is a much more fitting moniker for the laf wit! :lol:

Yeah Cleo is getting on my damn nerves. Shes just so annoying I want to reach into the television and just knock her back home to wherever shes from. Her voice. Her squinting, her ugly teeth, her hot mess of a hair style have all got to go. And this is just another story where Jade is going to be made to look like the bad guy for no reason whatsoever. Why in the world would Jade STILL be mad at Will? Okay I got it when she was teaming up with Adam but now its so ridiculous.

So it was 6 months right for Casey? I'm lol at that "Don't drop the soap" comment. Maybe Casey and Luke can be boyfriends when he comes back from his life changing experience in prison? You never know...Although I feel really bad for Maddie.

It's funny....the more I see Alison, the more I'm seeing the Ali/Ro similarities. Cady had a very flinty abrasiveness about her...and Ali does too in her b!tchier moments. There is a general similarity in their facial features, and in their voices. It came through when Ali was suspicious of Paul today. Even just the way Ali stands, so reminds me of why I always thought Rosanna had a stick up her butt.

So-so show...kind bored with the Cleo story. Cleo comes off more and more like a stalker. And there's medication she can take for that excessive blinking disorder.

I felt bad for Maddie today, even as she was like b!tching she and Casey should be on the run, and acting like two wrongs would have made a right.

Tomorrow looked okay....especially if some Twitty Blonde isn't on. LOL.

The first time Paul noticed the similarities between Ali and Ro I was blown away cuz they sounded exactly the same. No joke here either. I was like WTF. Cuz usually these soaps just make up stuff and we have to go along with it but this time I could actually SEE the connection go off in Paul's head as he saw the possiblities....Is it just me or has RH gotten more buff? He was looking mighty find in those bedroom scenes from last Friday!

I was glad they had Ali say that Paul's known her her whole life, and NOW she reminds him of someone? B/C when I first read about this, that plot point irked me.

I see they are also doing the Jen meth hair with NuAli - in Vegas when she was on meth? Curls. Not on meth today? Straight.

    • 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!

    • 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.
