Really great show today!

Philip gave me the chills when he was telling Claire that it was peaceful under the water. Then I laughed out loud at the comment about jumping overboard with their child. Then when Belle comforted him I was like Mmmm OK..Where is this going and I think I actually want to see it!

Good Stuff!

The Island of Hawtness was still HAWT!...But I'm ready for Kayla to get there!

I'm not feeling the Billie /Hope scene. To much water under the bridge there for Hope to randomly call Billie to babysit. Billie's reason for wanting to go to the Island was lame. Cuz she cares about STEVE!...Yeah Right!

Lumi's bickering was cute but I hate the forced laugh. Masion Blanche huh?...I'm game!

:lol: You knew they'd screw up somewhere!

I was only able to catch the last segment of today's show.

I love the little partnership between Hope and Billie. That was a nice touch.

The preview look good for tomorrow. Is it me, or does Celeste sound like she wants Stefano to survive? Belle falls into Philip's arms and I get a glimpse of what could be PHELLE! :D And I can't wait to see Lucas and Sami battle off EJ at New Orleans.

Philip had some scary moments today. I'm glad he and Belle talked things through, but I've thought a couple other times that they were going to work out some kind of compromise custody agreement and then Philip backtracks. He did do a good job explaining the "why" of some of his actions but also makes me angry with Victor--he should have made sure his son got psychiatric help for his PTSD instead of encouraging a custody fight.

Bo and Steve--awesome! I loved their scenes, and Steve was pretty scary himself. When he pulled out that gun and kind of rubbed it against his cheek I didn't know what he was going to do next. Time for Kayla to arrive. She needs to get there before the typhoon.

While I loved Hope and Billie's scenes, they didn't really make a whole lot of sense to me. I would like them to be friends because I love both of them, but I don't think it's realistic because of all their past history--but this isn't real life, so I guess I'll suspend belief. And Billie's wanting to get involved in the island thing because she used to be hot for Steve doesn't really work for me either. However, I love the idea of Billie and Hope teaming up in the Brady/Dimera war!

Maison Blanche--oh, the memories! One of my favorite storylines. It's good to be back!

Belle and Philip were awesome today. Little Claire has taken to Philip and was just so cute with him. It seemed that Belle and Philip were making some amends until she picked up that phone and called Shawn. For the life of me, I cannot see how she thinks he is her hero. He is such a dunce and she really isn't. The coming days should be fun.

Since I wish Billie were gone for good, I have nothing to say about the ridiculous plot today.

The men on the island were fab but I cannot piece from today to what is coming up. That is what I'm looking forward to.

The air of impending mystery was heavy when Sami started to read the letter and had the foreman confirm that the house was the DiMera's and it is Maison Blanche. Fan me. I am so excited about this summer story.

Shawen Bo & Steve. the island crap is lame and needs to end by SN & PR make anything watchable. and BB holds his own in scenes with those two. Looks the island crap is ending soon tho. so thats great. but man PR & BB have such an amazing father/son chem.

Philip & Belle... swoon!! i LOVE them! i ahev awlays loved them and today i rememberd why. JKJ & MM have the chem and look good together. however so do BB&MM and i like BB & JKJ chem as rivals. so i think im falling into that shelle triangle love. to abd belle ALWAYS runs back to her "hero" shawn.

Hope & Billie. OMFG!! more char growth? more relationship growth?! i loved it. and i loved that Hope called Billie. i mean, hope is billies daughters step mom and the two do need to get along and what not. plus KA is almost watchable in scenes with JP. i kinda want them to become friends.

DAYS continues to move along quite nicely, with yet another STELLAR episode with some great character moments.

For the first time in I think since the story started, I actually felt bad for Philip and understood where he was coming from. JKJ has improved SO much since his last stint. The Belle/Philip scenes were the stand-out of the episode.

Loved that the current writing team is trying to mend the Billie/Hope rivalry, its about time they buried the hatchet (despite how MASSIVELY whorish and c*nty Billie has been to Hope). I have definetly enjoyed Billie alot more since Reilly left the show and if she ends up on the right side of this feud and actually has a positive impact or maybe even some self-sacrafice, I may be able to get behind this character again.

The Tinda Lau scenes were good, Reckell and Nichols work SO well together. At the same time though, I am anxiously awaiting the end of this story and the end of annoying and not needed Gabby!

The LUMI scenes were good....I am definetly intrigued with this upcoming story and of course the return of Maison Blanche (Red Brick...who gives a f*ck...honestly people) is a huge step in the right direction for this show.

Great show!

The place burned down and was rebuilt. It was then ravaged during Katrina so perhaps the bricks are different for those reasons? Makes sense to me.

Very good episode.

JKJ shined today. The man has improved so much and great writing for these two today. Finally we see motivation and emotion out of Philip. I totally could understand his points and he does have chemistry with Martha. I like how Belle, Shawn, and Philip all are realizing the mistakes made and how screwed up things got. I also liked the chilling beginning to the Philip/Belle scenes and Belle wondering if he was going to jump with Claire.

Steve/Bo is always good. Reminds me of the old Days. Glad the island is moving along. BB is playing Shawn's desperation well.

Billie/Hope was fantastic. KA and JP work well together and I am so happy that the writers are slowly ending their feud. They should never be buddy buddy but I like how they were today, especially the "we will get a chance to kick EJ's butt" line. I hope Billie is a part of upcoming story this summer too. The babysitting angle was a bit off but the scenes were good otherwise.

Sami/Lucas was good too. Liked their banter and that cajun guy was quite funny IMO. I liked how they found the box and saw the name "Dimera" and then learned whose house it was. Intriguing and suspenseful.

Tomarrow looks good as well.

    • To me, that made no difference. The point stands whether Eva wants to be a Dupree or not. Anita was 110% on top of things. Also it's a logical inference that Eva might be interested in having a place in her supposedly real family. Frankly though I wonder if Eva knows how to feel ... yet. She could really be confused.

    • Concluding 1976... Raymond Schafer arrives in Springfield and begins an extensive probe into Malcolm’s death, puzzling Ed, who wonders why most of Schafer’s question sessions keep turning back to Rita’s involvement with Malcolm. Ed assures the man that Rita’s only connection with Malcolm was as his nurse; he is unaware that Schafer knows a great deal more about Rita than he does. Just to protect Rita, Ed has Mike check on Schafer’s credentials, and learns that he’s a  well-respected criminal attorney. The waitress at the restaurant where Malcolm suffered his stroke tells Schafer that the woman who was with him reacted very professionally to the sudden emergency, as if she were a nurse. Realizing that her little sister has fallen hard for Tim, Rita warns him that she’s very vulnerable and innocent, but Tim tells Rita her advice isn’t necessary. But Tim then receives a plum job offer to be chief neurological resident at a prestigious Philadelphia hospital and can’t pass up the opportunity. Evie is crushed by the news and spends the next several days at home crying. Joe Werner, fully recovered, has accepted a post as a medical aide in a destitute village in India and leaves alone, with Sarah to follow him later. Justin asks Sarah to consider a partnership with him in private practice, but she explains that she thrives on the hospital atmosphere. When a call comes from India that Joe has had another massive attack, Sarah leaves on the next available flight and arrives only moments before he dies. The painful news is relayed back to Cedars at once. Sara returns from India a heartbroken woman, but the day-to-day involvement of raising T.J. and of her career seem to be her salvation. Justin shows a surprisingly compassionate and understanding side to Sara, but, ironically, Justin’s ex-wife, Jackie, arrives in Springfield with her diabetic father, who is suffering from a heart attack. In the process of consulting with Justin on her father’s condition, Jackie comes face to face with Sara for the first time since their college days. Evie’s heartbreak at Tim’s departure turns to fury and hatred when she inadvertently discovers a letter which Tim wrote to Rita just after he left. In it he concedes that Rita was right about Evie’s vulnerability where he was concerned but reminds Rita that he badly hurt her in the same way she feared Evie would suffer. Evie is now sure that Rita somehow forced Tim to leave town and is livid at the idea that Tim was Rita’s lover. She insists she’s cutting off her relationship with Rita and will pay her back for any help she’s received in the past. Ben and Hope’s wedding plans are off, as Ben, while still insisting he’s innocent, won’t explain why the robbery evidence points to him. Hope feels his unwillingness to tell her the truth makes marriage to him impossible, but confides to Ann that she is miserable without him. Ben has echoed these sentiments to Mike but won’t confide in him, either as Hope’s father or as an attorney.   Holly is trying very hard to build a life without Ed, but since she sees him virtually every day at work,she’s unable to put him out of her mind. She accepts a date with a member of the hospital administration staff but is unable to avoid making comparisons between Ed and this young man and winds up alone, sadly holding Ed’s picture and recalling how much she loves him. Believing that the hospital board’s conclusions on Grainger’s death have settled the question once and for all, Rita has regained her self-confidence, and her romance with Ed is growing daily. They admit their love for each other, and Ed confides that he intentionally  held back with Rita for fear of making another mistake. Rita then tells Ed she has never married because for her marriage must be forever. Rita’s mother realizes that Rita is truly in love when she confides in her that she doesn’t understand why she’s been so lucky in having him love her and how she wants to be the very best person she can be for him. Ed proposes marriage to Rita and gives her time to think about it before answering. Rita painfully realizes that her past could, if it rose again against her, make a life with Ed a lost dream. But Raymond Shaefer has been quietly but efficiently carrying on his investigation and has learned that Grainger argued with Rita at her apartment. He presents the evidence he’s compiled to District Attorney Eric Van Gelder, who decides the case warrants further investigation. Rita goes to Ed’s office to tell him she loves him but can’t marry him, that she doesn’t deserve him and “can’t do it to him.” As she turns from a confused Ed to leave, she finds the district attorney and a police officer outside Ed’s door, waiting to arrest her. Ed, insisting that a serious mistake has been made, calls Mike to help her as Rita, shocked and humiliated, is taken under arrest through the hallways of the hospital in which she works. Mike manages Rita’s release on bail only after she has had to submit to the degrading booking procedure. Mike sees her alone at her apartment, explaining he can help her only if she tells him the whole truth. Rita equivocates until Mike mentions Texas, indicating to Rita that he knows at least some of the story. Van Gelder has, in fact, let Mike see the bulk of evidence in the case against Rita, to convince him her arrest wasn’t a capricious whim. Rita explains to Mike that Malcolm believed she intentionally vilified him to his father, to do him out of his rightful inheritance, and then wanted his father dead to collect her money. Mike expresses his appreciation of Rita’s honesty, promising to help her. But Rita’s tormented dreams confirm that she hasn’t yet told all the truth, and after Peggy visits, expressing firm support, Rita tells Roger she has to reveal his part in the story. Roger painfully tells Rita about his being Christina’s father to show her that if Ed knew, it would end Rita’s chances with him forever. Rita, who was ready to tell Ed the whole story, now realizes how risky that would be. Adding to Rita’s pain is her forced leave of absence from the hospital until she’s cleared and the embarrassment of seeing her name in the headlines.

    • Yes, but the stories are all pretty awful Seeing Victor rehashing his hatred of the Abbotts  when he married one of them and has a daughter that is half Abbott as well as walking around with Traci's daughter's heart keeping him alive makes him look worse than he already is. And I remember he and Jack chatting amicably in the past few years. Victor interfering in Kyle/Claire is just repeat of Billy/Victoria. Sharon, Nick,Phyllis etc are around but again the stories are lacking.
    • I think Kevin's 1996 Emmy was fair enough. He barely appeared for his second. I don't think anyone else on the list is that deserving but I might have gone with Moore as he did try with the whole Keesha AIDS story. @alwaysAMC Thanks to slick jones' cast list I was able to see that Nikki Rene played Tina. Not much on her, as you mentioned. Tap and a few Broadway listings (it doesn't help that a younger actress with a similar name is in a lot of roles).

    • Thank you. That does ring a bell. I remember Theresa and Julian's drunk, giggly fake wedding (with Julian asking "Whassup?" to the minister). Was Bruce tricking the pair as a prank, or did somebody put him up to it? I especially liked Katherine recalling how dashing young Alistair was when he'd pick up Rachel for dates, and how she wished she could be her sister, then feeling guilty once Rachel had her boating accident ...
    • And Kevin Mambo beat Shemar Moore for those two Emmys. I chalk up the wins to the voters not wanting Jonathan Jackson to eventually end up with a five peat (he won 1995, 1998, 1999). These were the 1996 and 1997 Younger Actor races. 1996: Nathan Fillion, Jonathan Jackson, Kevin Mambo (winner), Shemar Moore, Joshua Morrow 1997: Steve Burton, Jonathan Jackson, Kevin Mambo (winner), Shemar Moore, Joshua Morrow
