Great reading about the excellent show today. I join you all who were excited and loved the excitement, the glamour, the story and the return of Anna, plus the fill-in with history. I do believe that Tony disappeared and at some point in time later, they were divorced though.

Speaking of the Marlena group. If Marlena would be her age and act the way a woman of her profession and status in life should be, she might be more interesting. I laughed at John and Marlena playing fingers like teens who haven't even explored sex yet and wondered if they were playing toesies, too. Too silly.

Finally got to watch the whole thing..thank god for soap net...I absolutely loved the show..So many great moments and delicious dialog...Anna's entrance was fantastic...I like the explanation of Celeste contacting her, and her reasons for keeping the letters made sense...The scene with Anna translating the letters was great...Also i enjoyed the scenes of Anna and Roman reconnecting, talking about Carrie and the "wash my back" blunder...I could totally go for a Tony, Anna, Roman triangle with Kate and Stefano also involved..

Celeste at the Dimera's was amazing..I just can't get enough of Tanya Boyd...Her threats to the Dimera men were intense...Stefano making Tony and EJ hug it out was hilarious, i couldn't stop laughing...Joseph M. is getting great material and just hitting it out of the ballpark...And the rivalry between Tony and EJ is so fun to watch..

The cast really was to die for today, so many vets....And it really shows what a talented cast we have...

The one thing i'm loving about Days right now is they have all the right characters involved in this umbrella storyline..Stefano, EJ, Tony, Celeste, Lexie, John, Marlena, Bo, Hope, Roman, Anna, Sami, Lucas, Shawn, Caroline...even Doug and Julie...and after today Steve and hopefully Kayla when she returns..Obviously some characters are going to get more airtime or dialog, but its nice to see the right people involved with the story..and hopefully every couple weeks the tides will change and someone else will get pushed to the forefront of the story..Bope/Doug/Julie/Lexie were big last week...This week was the contrast in families and Anna's return, and next week it seems like Steve/Hope/Anna/Tony/Stefano....

I agree and this all falls in line with what SN said...they are going back to the balance of the 80's where each piece of the story had a focus for a bit and then we moved to another piece. It's clear Hogan is telling the truth about watching 80's videos because this is right out of the 80's. This is classic stuff and I can't get enough of it.

It was a way to show their disregard and lack of attention to what was going on around them. Mature people don't have to do stupid things to let folks know they are devoted to each other. Who wants a peep show when there is serious business at hand. It has not one thing to do with anyone enjoying a sexual life, it has to do with being exhibitionistic.....argh.

Exactly! I was hyped for her return and I was hardly disappointed. I've said it once, I'll say it 100 times. Leann is a GODDESS! It's so great to have her back. Anna is just such a complex character. Flove her.

    • Major flaw! And that's why I said Dani would've been better of an screwed up kid (black sheep). Nicole got an award because she's doing important work. Depression is real, Mental illness is real. People are homeless and committing suicide in jails because they lack proper help. Yes, she modeled, but I mean, even Tyra pivoted into acting, talk shows, her own company, managing other models, etc.
    • I will admit to not liking John Bolger in the role of Phillip, but on rewatch, he has a really nice friend chemistry with Michael and Krista. And I think it's the only period of time where Phillip hasn't pulled Rick into some stupid scheme that ends up hurting the friendship.

      You're right about everything! The casino needs to go and it's ugly! The ugliest set on BTG.
    • Jayne Bentzen is the actress who played Nicole at that point. She joined Edge the year before, replacing Maeve McGuire.
    • Wait.....Anita is an EGOT, Vernon was an important Senator, and Dani was an international model (no matter how brief, although I thought she said she was on par with Tyra Banks(or someone)...meanwhile, Nicole's some nice psychologist/psychiatrist with an award on her wall...but Dani's hasn't added to the Dupree mystique?  I don't think the writers considered ever having any Dupree be less than utterly fabulously successful  and that's actually flaw in the structure of the show.  Oh, I forgot to say...Smitty acts like she stumbled into Vanessa's Only Fans account and paid for a picture of her dirty undies before realizing it was her.
    • I watched another batch of episodes and I have a sense of dread. I fear they are setting up a murder storyline with one of my favorite characters as the victim. I don't know if that would be considered a spoiler so won't reveal the character. If that's so, i will be extremely disappointed as this person has done Emmy caliber work and would create such a void on the show.  If I'm right, I think I know who the suspect will be and I would rather the suspect be murdered.  Joel Crothers's Miles has had more of a presence with his wife Nicole and I enjoy both actors. Crothers is just so yummy and charismatic. Don't know who plays Nicole but I like their relationship.  Ann Williams has been phenomenal as Margo. Margo is desperate to keep Eliot and make April happy. Williams had a nice scene with Kibbee's Geraldine about Logan and the baby. Eliot has been so slimy and menacing but he's so watchable. April and Draper are still fighting over the baby and something has happened to April to land her in the hospital. I just keep hoping she'll kick Draper out. The man is such a pain. Raven needs to come back and sleep with him. She can liven him up. Ann Flood and Frances Fisher had a wonderfully written scene where Deborah confesses her feelings for Owen. The writing and acting for this scene was first-rate. I want more of Flood. It's good to see Fisher getting more to do. Steve and his low cut shirts have been sidelined lately. The writers are setting up a Deborah/Nola confrontation.  Paige and Brian are still pretty much an afterthought. The movie plot is coming along nicely and there was a great episode where Margo had a party for the movie at her penthouse. Still enjoying the show. 
    • See, I imagine it as some kind of "private" room within a bigger casino.
    • I like Nicole for several reasons, she has all the good attributes and qualities of a good person. You have to be a huge hater to dislike someone like her. I consider Dani an underdog. She had a lot to live up to and she hasn't contributed to the family name imo. Naomi and Martin seem to had more flourishing careers than she has.  She might've had a long marriage, but Bill cheated on her left and right. I am sure they had some good times, but I wouldn't call it a great marriage or anything to brag about. She modeled for what 2/3 years? That's not that successful, especially if she didn't pivot to something more lucrative. And that is the real reason she plays momanger cause she is living through Chelsea. Dani is nothing without her family name. Nicole doesn't need the Dupree; she made her own mark! And that's what you should do when you're born with privilege, flip that [!@#$%^&*]! The opportunity is there for the writers to play up her insecurities and resentment issues, but will they? There must've been a reason for her to choose Bill over someone with more status, or coming from another wealthy family. Right?  I don't expect everyone to understand her, but I do, and probably would've made her a more screw up and didn't amount to much outside having some kids.  The lack of crossover from the in-laws always bothered me, too. I hope at some point we get some family dinners. I know it's not earth-shattering entertainment, but I'm a sucker for those scenes. And you can still move the story along, too! I forgot all about my boo Jacob, and he was on today. He, for some reason, reminds me of Garfield the cat!

      You're right about that hetero bio son Dupree, though.
