LOL and I used to live in Chicago and couldn't help but think how much that street reminded me of where one of my friends used to live on the near north side of Chicago.

I really liked today's show. Cole and Sofie didn't even bother me that much. And the quad without Paul as part of it was enjoyable.

I liked the different characters than normal holding conversations, like Meg and Margo and Gwen and Rosanna. The conversations were very appropriate but seldom happen. I really enjoyed that.

I really liked the Lily/Holden scenes also.

I like the idea of Evan Walsh lV and possibly bringing some business and Craig/Lucinda action back. I do agree that he is green though as I would expect from an InTurn winner.

I feel like they are still experimenting with the camera work but it is improving slowly.

I'm willing to start liking Evan IF it means there will be more of one to come.

I didn't mind him at all today, but I think it was because he was with Craig & Lucinda. I think he may fall flat if he's in scenes with someone that doesn't have the wit they do, like NuChris, who just happens to be in the research field too.

I was really kind of bored. EVAN IV is Lucinda's step GREAT grandson...not just grandson. I wasn't that impressed by him either. Honestly, the Inturn/IWBASS gimmick needs to end, period, end of story. Either feature a real casting process, or a contest for some day player to win a bigger role. SOMETHING. Other than Lauretta, who played Kit, this has been a total bust, and I'm sick of hearing about it, and devoting story to it.

Luke/Noah...Nice to each other. Supportive. And they actually make a little sense. Too bad they're written as a 50 year olds.

Interesting to see Margo/Meg and Ro/Gwen scenes. Too bad the shock of seeing these people talk threw me so much I couldn't enjoy it. Good grief...like I really want to listen to the two baby-obsessed women from the last four/five years BOND over how baby obsessed they are. Margo listing off all of Craig's scattered children was almost comical. Yeppers...giving Craig a FOURTH child, Meg, is finally going to straighten him out! *eyeroll*

Sophie and Cole...I don't think the actors are bad, but I don't feel any connection to them whatsoever. They've spent three months (or so) working up to this stupid "let's give Gwen a baby" story? JHC, whatever happened to just finding a baby on your doorstep? Even that cliche would have been less painful than this.

It looked like the place Holden was hit by the car. And then lost his memory. When Heather Ratray played Lily.

Yes, the remote scene did look cheap compared to the studio scenes.

I agree. I loved today's show. Barbara's expression at the end was priceless!! I am enjoying seeing more of her and other vets. What has happened to this show? Did someone switch a light on and start using a wider variety of characters? Gwen and Rosanna have a whole eppy together?...huh? :huh: Margo and Meg in scenes? :huh: Anyways, I loved Barbara sticking it to Iris. It was pure Babs. :D

See how much better the show is when we dont have the same 7 people on everyday. Having more characters on the show doesnt make the quad so boring. We had Gwen with Rosanna. Which made Gwen more viewer watchable...lol. Evan, Craig, Meg, Margo, Holden, Lily, Luke, Noah, Lucinda, Barbara, Iris, Cole, Sofie and Aaron. That is 16 total characters on today. When was the last time we had that many in one show? And that is not counting the private eye Rosanna hired. That would make it 17. Why did it take so long for this to happen???

Good question, because like you said it makes it so much better, and less repetitive as well, more characters means less time for the characters to say and do the same things over and over again. Plus I like seeing so many stories playing out per day. I hope I am wrong and this continues past sweeps.

No, Evan corrected him by saying step grandson. New viewers aren't going to know the difference, but it bugs me, a lot more than Meg's fertility problems.

I almost wonder if all this cross-action between characters has anything to do with "stockpiling" stuff for the strike. Maybe it's a way to draw stories out. It's a lot easier to write recaps scenes here and there, then to speed through and leave new stories hanging if the strike lasts a while. Ironic that it's kind of what we want, if we're only getting it because of the strike.

I agree on everything you said. Now, maybe Kim will be involved in her son's life instead of pimping Katie. I was so sick of seeing the Hughes family being used ..mainly to pimp Katie. I say again why did it take so long for this to happen?

    • Lol, I enjoy classical music and I really think Gio is a talented musician.  I just don't know if it's the soundstage they are filming it on or what, but it sounds so screechy on TV.  I don't recall all his performances sounding like that. Rocco-"this was all my fault not Gio's or even Danny's.  No one made me drink.  I am being accountable". Dante-"Nope still 100% GIO's FAULT!!!" Just shut it Dante! Alexis and Lucky deserve more than having to protect Kristina's crazy butt. I like Cody and Lulu teaming up.  Finally someone is agreeing with Lulu.  
    • After watching the performances tonight I can't understand why Finland and Malta are seen as some of the favourites. Finland's song is not one of the best this year and I maintain that Miriana Conte who represents Malta is a poor singer. My guess is that it's because of the controversial nature of both these songs. I'm not all that impressed with Austria either. But France on the other hand emerged as a big contender tonight. A beautiful song, a wonderful singer and fantastic staging. Greece also had a spectacular stage show which definitely enhanced their chances. I guess it's part nostalgia factor but I really want Luxembourg to go through to the final as well. I love the homage to France Gall and Laura Thorn sold the song very well. Much better than in the clip from the national final.
    • The older Ted was more unlikeable. The character came across warmer and mo sympathetic today whereas the older one portrayed him with a dark side. Thats why I said his scenes with Leslie will tell alot bc thats where he comes across the most like a villain and had me feeling bad for her at times
    • I completely agree @Soaplovers with your excellent comment.  And the bold, confident Stephanie we saw in her previous incarnations would be a much better match for Alex than the one trying to play house too soon. Let’s not forget: Alex came on the scene as a walking red flag with a gym membership—dodging commitment in love and work. And now he’s out here giving career advice? From a man whose last job was playing a soap star no one in Salem has even heard of? Sir. What I’d love is for Stephanie to be a genuine challenge for him—not someone who bends to his charm, but someone who knows she’s the prize. She’s a free agent in Salem: no ex-husband drama, no kid in tow, no awkward family entanglements. Let her be more like Kayla now—centered, respected, and not here for games—than Kayla was when she was falling off motorcycles with Steve. The next great Salem love story shouldn't be about chemistry alone. It should be earned—like Patch and Kayla, Shane and Kim, or even Bo and Hope on their best days. Give us slow burn, mutual respect, and a Stephanie who makes him level up.
    • It's looking like I may be in the minority, but nuTed is a major improvement to me. I agree, it will take a few days to get used to the higher pitched voice and smaller stature, but his acting is so much better. I can feel the emotions in his voice and face and it just feels more real and natural.  Kat was great today too, giving us the tears and her softer side. Loved Leslie/Bill - we need more of this!  Did y'all notice Leslie's snake necklace?? So creepy, but fitting for her haha. Tomorrow should be an updated intro with Keith, unless they repeat the second one for days until they get it updated.
    • Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! ✌

    • It was all about Gio today, boys 

      Please register in order to view this content

      He was really sweet and dorky though, and I enjoyed the violin lol. And he looked good too  I'm speculating that the big reveal will happen at Gio's birthday party. It's definitely time. But yeah, he really should've gotten advice and encouragement from someone, from anyone other than Sonny though. And while I understand where Dante is coming from, he was a little annoying today again. They really needed to establish this tension and anger a lot sooner than now, or not do it at all. Plus, this had already been done with Mac/Cody, Nina/Willow, etc., and honestly, it doesn't seem necessary here.  As for Lucky and Liz, as much as I like angsty couples, I'm still concerned about what Frank may (or may try to) do with them. The biggest reason why Lucky is like a 'cowboy' is because this friggin guy spent the better part of a decade basically erasing him from existence.
    • True, lol. IIRC, Rita Moreno said in an interview that part of the problem was that Susan Harris was ill during the week they taped that episode and therefore was unable to make needed script changes.  I wonder what might have happened had they been able to delay the taping until she felt well enough to work more on the script.  I feel like "Nest" might've sold with Moreno and Paul Dooley (although the patient with DID would've needed to be eighty-sixed regardless, lol).
    • What is the most recent episode in which Maurice Johnson's Ted wore a turtleneck?
