I know I've pretty much hated everything about DAYS for the last four months, but I thought today's was pretty damn good!

JEL shines as Adrienne, but I think we all knew that would happen anyway!

Exactly right. Phillip didn't give five flips about Claire when he left her because his ego was bruised (same as Roman left Sami and Carrie when they needed him). Had he stayed, then absolutely, he'd have a chance. He was assured that he would be a constant in Claire's life and he left.

Claire needs to be with Marlena. She's known Marlena all her short life so far, she's comfortable with her and Marlena could use something positive in her life.

I'd pay money for THIS line...

EJ: "All the while, as I was growing up, my mother would warn me that there were people in the world who wanted to harm me -- one was an 'evil vampire,' my father Stefano. The other was a wonderful woman she referred to as 'that mean, mean, mean Kristen.' Guess what? They found me."

Sami needs to try blurting out something like "I slept with EJ to save your life and maybe this baby is his"--that would shut up Lucas and give her a chance to tell him the truth. Why does he never give her a chance to talk when she's trying to come clean? I'm so frustrated with Lucas! And I agree wholeheartedly with everyone who's posted about their relationship because I've come to hate them as a romantic couple. The writers need to either develop Lucas as a character with a real personality and give him some brains and a backbone or write him out of Salem. And quit giving them these saccharine sweet scenes; Sami is not a "sweet" character. I'm also surprised this is her wedding day, and she's hanging out at home with Lucas and Will. At least the wedding is finally here, and I'm excited even though I really don't want Sami and Lucas married. A Sami wedding is always fun and exciting, and we should see some vets this week.

Glad Steve's out of that mental hospital. Go, Adrienne! Is EJ losing his grip on things? Or is this all part of his twisted plan?

I'm so sick of the island story. Everyone involved is acting childish and irresponsible, and I don't think Claire is safe right now with any of them. I was glad Gabby told Shawn how stupid he was being, wanting to go after Philip with a gun when he could hardly even stand up. Get back to Salem and let Marlena and Bo and Hope take care of that baby while the Three Stooges get their acts together.

Though I would've liked Sami to come clean before the wedding, at least she's made a genuine attempt and isn't actively trying to keep Lucas in the dark. The latter would have compromised her development under Hogan. Lucas cutting her off was a bit annoying but I think it will make more sense in light of a twist later in the week. ;)

I'll be happy to never again see an island or mental institute on DAYS.

Ok show and it was nice to see Marlena, Bo & Hope in the previews for tomorrow. The rest of the week should be awesome.

There are a few reasons why I feel Bo and Hope are better-suited to care for Claire in the meantime. First off, Marlena has a lot going on in her life with John's situation and therefore she spends a fair amount of time at his bedside. That's going to make it very difficult for her to care for Claire, where she may often have to arrange a babysitter for her. Next, Hope is a stay-at-home mom, which will allow Claire to get equipped with a familiar face, in a consistent, and stable enivrnoment with minimal change. Not to mention, Claire will better understand family-life having a mother-like, and father-like figure. Lastly, Bo and Hope have a little girl, who is much younger than Claire, but offers Claire the opportunity to have another child to play with, which is critical at her age.

    • Has anyone ever totted up how many women on GL slept with both father and son(s)? Reva gets a lot of crap for it but she's far from the only one: Claire Beth Blake Olivia Dina Did I miss anyone?  
    • I think Long was probably planning to have Claire suffer from Post Partum, but she left the writing staff shortly after Claire had Michelle so that element didn't get explored. And I always assumed that when Claire returned in the late 90s/early 00s.. that she was realizing that she messed up by not staying a part of Michelle's life and became resentful/bitter over her previous choices.  That was my theory.  
    • Jenn was a huge part of the success of Days back in the day, and that contribution shouldn't be dismissed.  With that said, I do think her and Jack's time on the show should remain as occasional visits/drop ins. When Missy returns to play Jenn, Jenn is back to being Jenn.   Jenn in her glory days was head strong, fiesty, and was a live wire.... and her scenes with Jack on Friday was classic Jenn with Jack being the voice of reason.   It was the foundation of their relationship back in the day.    
    • Claire was always tightly wound, I think what Long was going to do is to throw the three into this impossible situation with no bad guys, Mo, knowing how to take care of kids from growing up but unable to conceive and Claire, who didnt know how to take care of kids and was totally focused on her career, gets knocked up.  Ryder took Claire off the deep end as a convenient way to make story for characters he wasnt interested in (though Pratt blames McTavish) with little effort. It was later explained to be a brain tumor (though why was she a bitch again when she returned?) \ Claire did sleep with Rick, she was his first!
    • I'm sorry, truly I am, but this literally made me LOL. Tempting fate, much?

    • Oh, I have very little doubt that Missy feels some way personally and privately.  Donna was just saying she actively spoke out against Days in public in reference to the gay storylines, which she did not. I don't have super strong feeling about Jen one way or another.  She was always a side character to me.  I still think Missy is Jen regardless of her stupid beliefs.
    • I hated the swap-over; Clayton Norcross, to me, was far superior in the role of Thorne than Jeff Trachta ever was. And the recast left me disliking Thorne when he was the superior son to me. As for Teri Ann Linn, I feel like she got the raw deal. Kristen was very clear as a forefronting character, especially in her rivalry with Stephanie, and it feels like she was dropped off for Felicia, and they never returned it. Not to mention the subpar recast with Tracy Melchior in 2001. Someone like Brenda Epperson (ex-Ashley, Y&R) would've been more suited for that role.
    • I just remember when Leo was marrying Craig (?), Greg Rikaart stated a line and made direct eye-contact with Melissa Reeves, and when the camera cut to her, she looked away.

       Rikaart had a mission that day, and he succeeded.
