Days: Friday November 23rd


Recommended Posts

  • Members

The episode of John's death was one of the best Days episodes I've seen in along time, but Friday's episode comes in with a close second.

1) STEFANO AND MARLENA!!!! Words cannot describe the chemistry, drama and well awesomeness

2) Loved the songs... wedding... fights...

3) Missing Bo, Caroline and Shawn, but still very great episode.

I really think Ed Scott is working some (should be more) magic on the set. I can see his touches.

I won't get to watch this until tomorrow, but I can say that I love what I see of the montage! It seems appropriate for Thanksgiving, which we're celebrating here in America today, to look to our blessings, which Doug makes reference to.

I love seeing Belle, Shawn, and the wedding guests, the cut away to Kayla who looks to be comforting Cordy and Stephanie, then the cut back to the wedding. I always loved it when the montages would give us little glimpses of what's going on for each set of characters...Montages were such a staple in the 80s and so many of us loved them.

Lots of the cast was featured today, looks like...Maybe some of them were only on briefly, but that's fine.

And Marlena and Stefano are about to go a few rounds so that should be interesting.

I

I don't root for Belle with Shawn or anyone else right now.

But I do like the fact that so much of the cast is on. I also enjoy montages tremendously.

Can't wait to see tomorrow's American episode.

The episode does sound very good..But it sucks that Peter Reckell wasn't available for this episode..Its his son's wedding, he needs to be there..I wonder if maybe they just wrote in Grandpa Shawn needing to go to the hospital to write out Bo, Roman and Caroline..

What a great episode so far. I'll make sure I comment more later.

I did see the promo for next week, and it's freakin awesome. Chloe looks amazing, and Belle finally admits she loves Phillip! This has been an awesome triangle, based on pure feelings. This is how EJ/Sami/Lucas should have been. Love this damn show.

Stefano: You've brought me joy Marlena, my queen.

Marlena: Your queen...is what you've made me. And you've also made me your killer. Deep inside, that instinct still lives. It's a darkness you put in my soul. And when it comes out...Stefano. It will come out with a vengeance. A vengeance

This show has been freakin awesome. The Marlena/Stefano scenes were done very well. The music used in the back made Marlena's statement all that better.

SHELLE GOT MARRIED! SHELLE GOT MARRIED!! (Ya, I know next week's likely the beginning of the end, but hey... at least the Shelle fans can say they got a payoff even though what Phillip did in today's episode would get him arrested in half the country... :lol: )

Now... on to other things. The Stefano/Marlena scenes were fantastic. I especially loved Stefano screaming "you witch" at the end.

I loved Doug's toast. They have to do more of these.

That was my favorite scene of the episode!! Watching two seasoned vets which such history with show having scenes like that is just classic soap opera. The music, the directing, the writing, the acting.......what a perfect scene.

My second favorite part was the montage with Doug's toast. Kudos to the director, breakdown and script writer for that.

I also loved Philip sending the watch to Shawn as "Victor's gift." Philip couldn't be at the wedding, so that was a brilliant way to remind Belle of his presence.

And I'm glad they remembered Belle/Shawn's song.

This ranks right up there, along with John's funeral and John's death, as 2007's best episodes.

    • I'm curious the motivation for keeping Bela on beyond the circus story arc.  Did he play a character like his character on EON, or was he more of a good guy? I know he ended up with Sunny at the end of the series, but I always thought that Sunny/Hogan could have been revived once the lack of chemistry between him and the NuLiza became apparent.   Actually... the NuLiza (Louan Gideon) reminded me more of Sunny than she did Liza as played by Sherry... and she just threw off the whole vibe of the show. I see Estelle has just arrived in the late October 1985 episodes, which only means that Wendy and Stephanie are soon on their way out.   It also appears that the Sarah/Quinn/Wendy triangle was set up by Mayer.. and it looks as though Tomlin is going to deactivate it by the introduction of Colleen Dion's character.   I don't understand why no one on the show thought to look at Quinn and realize that he was the problem and write him out.

    • I kind of assume they're toning down Rachel's bad seed tendencies a bit to make it less obvious if they're going for her as the shooter. At least that's what I hope they're doing - I've really enjoyed Rachel being a bratty evil DiMera princess and Marlena finally getting a grandchild she deserves.

      . This show is so stupid. Sonny killed an FBI agent less than a year ago by shooting him at point blank range. But the new short bald man is much much worse cause he was a bad guy in some part of Africa and managed to not kill Lucky, Isaiah, Jason, or Anna. This show is crippled by the mob all these years after Guza has been long gone.    Laura is literally saying oooo but Sonny is a good mobster for Port Charles. Give me a [!@#$%^&*].ing break. Sometimes I don’t know why I watch this joke of a show.
    • With all the changes Sunny was one of the longest running characters by that time.  She had never been married and had heaps of story potential. I can see America getting with SFT -you know 'the circus soap'. Smart move because circuses were all the rage with the kids in the 80's. Maybe Stu and Jo could have bought the circus.
    • It is actually pathetic, that Victor’s 50 year old children are still written as scared of this man that has to sit in every scene. I get it, EB has been on the show for almost 50 years, but I don’t care. He’s a man in his 80’s and should not be the damn lead and driving force because you don’t want to upset Eric Braeden ‘s fragile ego that only exists because the writers have cowtowed to this man for so long.
    • PREACH Victor being written as he was 20 years ago to support EB's ego or some misguided belief that what worked decades ago is still relevant is destroying the show. Victor comes off as a rambling old fool holding on to vendettas and a desperate need for perceived power. His children still cow-towing to him makes them look equally foolish. If the writing portrayed Victor as  more of an irritant to them then maybe it would work.
    • They desperately need another meeting spot that isn’t Orphy Genes or the Country club. Y&R is awful now but there’s at least GCAC, Crimson Lights, Society, and the Jazz room at GCAC to meet at. 4 places is definitely better than 2 and I can’t imagine these rich folks literally only eat at their damn country club.
