I agree about all the slapping. In the past 2-3 weeks, Kayla slapped Stephanie (I really enjoyed that one), Sami slapped EJ, Hope slapped Willow and now Belle slaps Shawn. Who's next?

Loved today's show. Tony is just so evil and complex and arrogant and yet charming! I am fascinated by his scenes with EJ and their Cain vs. Abel interactions, both vying to be their father's favorite. Things seem to be heating up fast! And EJ really looked scared when he called Sami at the Pub.

Favorite line of the day goes to Lucas, talking to John -- "Hate those comas; they're no fun."

Great show; although found Lucas to be obnoxious as usual. I hate the way he speaks to sami, and she just takes it. And when he hangs out with Bo and John he seems like such a little midget. Anyway, good show, and even though Shawn and Belle are the rooting couple, the chemistry is so good between Jay Kenneth Johnson and Martha Madison. I wonder if there is a chance for Philip and Belle after all

Another great show today. I like the pub scenes, just like old times. Hogie does scenes like this very well.

I agree when people point out the holes in this rape story. I hated how Sami seemed so eager to see EJ today. I also cringed how the raped was glossed over with John and Marlena.

I loved EJ and Tony's confrontation today in the alley. It made me smile when he joked about the foggy pier. I wonder if was a hint of things to come (like that rumor about Tony and his disappearance in the 80s).

Like most everyone else, I too thought this was another great episode. Except for one thing. The finding out about Sami being potentially pregnant by EJ offscreen wasn't just weird because of the rape, but because wouldn't the police want information about that night because of the investigation into John's shooting?

Hey, Bo, maybe you can ask one question of Sami about the picture from her wedding video before you go and try and pimp Sami out for the third time to set up another one of your fruitless EJ Wells sting operations. Just a thought.

You forgot one.

Loving all the slaps. More more more.

I LOVE what they are doing with Tony and EJ too. So intense. And so hot actually.

That was definitely a great line. FINALLY they are acknowledging history again on this show. I love it.

Hahahaha. I agree.

I agree!

I love the fact that they're throwing in slaps where you wouldn't expect them. Like today, with Shawn and Belle... they're just having a normal conversation, the same daily ho-hum situation... and SLAP! Totally out of nowhere! LoL It certainly grabbed my attention.

And the other day, with Kate and Lucas. They were just standing there, having the same argument they've had time and time again, and just when you think it's time to press the "fast forward" button... SLAP! SLAP! I was like, "Whoa! Won't be fast-forwarding the rest of THIS scene! MORE SLAPS, MORE SLAPS!"

The unpredictability of their placement is both hysterical and surprising. I love it.

Great show today...The Brady Pub scenes by far were my favorite..It was great seeing Ali, Bryan, Drake, Deidre, Peter, Kristian and James all working together...This really is a great way to use more of the cast....Also Sami and John's reunion was wonderful..Loved John's line about "if i would have known i would have known it would be like this, i would have woke up sooner"......Also Lucas had a great line about "comas sucking"...

Tony and EJ was great..i'm loving how they are writing Tony..and i loved how EJ rubbed in the fact that Tony could never provide a Dimera heir...

Shawn, Belle, Phillip, Willow--okay stuff..I'm glad they mixed up the interactions..I was getting tired of belle and shawn..I'm actually liking phillip and belle more...And i think i'll like this triangle, now that they are all together and somewhat getting along

Great episode.

The Pub scenes were the best. Seeing Lucas and Sami interacting with the big 4 now was almost like a sign that they have arrived as a big supercouple. Loved it. Sami and Johns's reunion was touching. Talking about the wedding, John's line about how he would've woke up sooner if he knew it would be like this, Lucas's coma line, and Marlena and Hope siding with Sami with everyone debating her actions and seeing everyone talk about the feud was just perfect. Good setup for what was to come. EJ looked real scared when he called Sami and I love how they had John out of the room when EJ showed up. Nice detail tough there (you will see why tomarrow). The end with Sami and EJ was intense.

EJ/Tony was great too. They are writing Tony well. He is suave but arrogant and I love it. Thaoo seems to like it too. EJ telling him he could never provide an heir and the way Tony threatened him and Sami...chilling. Loved it.

I like the slaps too. The are surprising and you never know when you will see them. They are a soap staple and it's good to see them back on Days. Belle and Shawn were good today and I like how they mixed things up and had Shawn and Philip see Willow and Belle and shift through the episode. I can go for a triangle too. I like all 3 actors and they all have chemistry so I am for it. The way they are all getting along better helps too.

I can hardly wait to see the ratings when they are posted. Surely there will be a 2+ bump. Days is getting so good that I am eager for noon to come every day when not very long ago I'd miss the first part due to forgetting about it.

Today, I was totally stunned the way everyone at the table in the pub just took for granted that Sami's baby was a "who's the daddy" and that they didn't want to take EJ down the second he showed his evil face.

Oh, I forgot. Sami is now a DiMera pawn and apparently so are all the Brady's. At least, until the story gets it's foothold.

I have lost hope for Sami and Lucas. It seems as though golden boy Scott will be the new hero in Sami's life and probably will have all Salem twisted around his little finger. At least they are (Ali & Scott) great actors.

I like Tony. I do. But, why does he want Stefano's approval? Ugh, That really bugs me. He was always the other way around, fighting against his lineage, an accidental hero in his own right, but still very much a schemer. That's why I like my scenario where Tony "owns" Stefano by guaranteeing the stem cells -- otherwise, I'm not really fond of this incarnation at all, despite Thaao's wonderful presence.

The Pub stuff was damn good. Put all the rest of it to shame. The two lines previously mentioned especially.

Overall, though, this episode wasn't quite as good as I was expecting, for some reason. *shrug*

    • I have my fingers crossed for a baby to be named Monica Michelle & called Monica. And, yes, I do realize that is not equal to having her onscreen but, like you said & of course a recast is unthinkable. 
    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
