Ed Scott has seriously been a blessing to the show..In the past action scenes were so laughable, but these abduction/rescue scenes were very well done....There was so much intensity in the scene where Rob got Claire, and Belle fell into the water..I can't decide who the performer of the episode was because so many: Jay, Martha, Drake and Deidre all rocked...Belle going into cardiac arrest was a shock (well it would have been had i not read Kenny's post!!!), and i truly believe that Phillip does love Belle..especially after today..

Crystal and Rob were once again great..This just keeps getting better and better..and finally the John and Marlena scenes were brilliant....I especially liked Marlena introducing herself as Doc, and also the scene when John realized she was a doctor...Also the scenes with the pictures was heart wrenching..Its been years since Drake and Deidre both had a story they could really sink their teeth into (probably the serial killer story), and they are just doing a wonderful job..

Can't wait for tomorrows show..And i'm happy Hope has makeup on again..Also can't wait for Belle to see her "daddy"...

Wow, everything and everyone was on top today... again! Since I don't read episode spoilers anymore it's so exiting watching. It's indeed like the old days.

The J&M stuff rocked and I loved this part:

John: What are you doing?!

Marlena: It's Doc

John: What's Doc?!

Marlena: You called me Doc

John: Why...

Marlena: I've missed you so much

And then the look on John's face. He wants to get out of the hospital, and at the same time he's annoyed and a liiitle bit curious about who Marlena really is.

The pier scenes were great too. The death scene was fab, Jay was so good! For a moment there I almost thought they were gonna keep Belle dead. I guess that's what you get from not reading ep. spoilers. Awesome feeling.

Looking forward to the next episode when I get home. happy65.gif

(Ohh, and Ed Scott is a huge part of the ones saving this show!)

I FLOVE this show now. Its been years and years since I've watched a whole month without fast forwarding once. Even when I was in awe over Carrie back in Christie's heyday, I pretty much skipped most everything else.

John and Marlena today were beyond brilliant. Drake actually CAN act. I'm freakin' shocked. And MM just astounds me more and more every day. This is definitely an Emmy reel episode for the Best Drama category.

It feels so good to be able to watch the show with joy in my heart and to have the eager anticipation of the next day's chapter.

Thank you Ed Scott. Thank you Hogan Sheffer. And if Dena is writing the show as of now, kudos to her. And those three words, my friends, I NEVER thought I'd think, let alone write.

Another great show. The thing I am finding is it is all around consistently good - not just a few scenes or characters good - but the whole show. I am puzzled regarding the writing though. One day the credits list the entire pre-strike writing staff and then the next day it is a different staff (or at least some are missing) and then another day the entire staff again. Confusing, but I don't care since the writing is great right now. Keep it up.

      Sharon clearly has Anita’s number and I love it! Really can’t wait to find out what the secret is.

      Trying on the jacket was really dumb. Kat screwed up. Whatever Anita did has to have been really terrible because she looked scared when Sharon brought it up. And Sharon mentioned Vernon twice during the conversation so it's got to be something that he'd be disappointed about.

      How much longer are Sharon and Tracy actually going to be around? I really hope we find out what Anita's secret is especially if they're going to be gone soon. I'm going to be really annoyed if we wait months on end to find out what it is. We still don't know what Martin's secret is even though it's been nearly 6 months. I can't help but think that maybe Anita might've had a hand in sabotaging or even destroying some people's reputations and careers, as Sharon had alluded to. Whatever her secret is, I don't think it's necessary murder, but it has to be really bad enough that Anita's terrified of it coming out and ruining her life. Maybe she got involved in some serious scandal that could've ruined her career but she somehow managed to keep it under wraps.  Also, are we ever going to get back to the corrupt partner storyline with Jacob or has that been officially dropped? I totally forgot about that until now. I won't be surprised if TPTB decided to drop it at some point.

      I seriously got chills over today's episode, and I haven't stopped thinking about it. Fancy face

      The only humor I found was the ongoing snipping between Hope and Ciara.  After the heck that Hope put Julie through as an adolescent, it seems like justice has been served that there is rarely a moment of peace between this mother and daughter. I take back everything I thought about faux-John in the bed.  Marlena needed someone in the room today for that to work.  It would have been odd if she was alone in her bedroom, or he was dead in the bed next to her.  It is a powerful thing to say that her life didn't really begin until she found John.  We know she loved Don and Roman, but this was special and unique. I always wonder how writers choose a name for a character.  Here's Marlena: No wonder her sister Samantha went insane, she knew Marlena was the one her parents wished for. To distract from the story, I started wondering how often Hope and Marlena were on the show at the same time.? I know they shared stories, but it seems like Hope ascended during Marlena's absence, and Marlena re-appeared while Hope was not in Salem.  I also wondered how many more episodes Marlena appeared with John, than Don or Roman? Her on-screen marriage to Roman was relatively short.  But, there were a lot of breaks from the show during her marriage to John.  And she and Don were together for at least a few years.

      It's an equal mix of feeling tortured and superior being a day ahead. Ya'll are getting a pretty good one tomorrow. It puts some things into perspective.

      I'm sure, with it being warmer in Atlanta, they'll utilise the Assembly grounds more (they've already shown cast on set being outside).

      I never thought Days would be the soap that I look forward to each day and have it take me on an emotional roller coaster.   Proving that good writing will bring fans back.
