I love what they're doing with Blair. I'm finally loving her again, and it's been YEARS since I've felt that way. SHe's much more self-aware, and I really appreciate that.

Bo and Rex - if there's one great thing that came out of the Higley era, it's Bo and Rex!

It was definitely a quieter episode - no doubt about it. But knowing we're in for an old-school, kick-ass soap wedding throwdown, I didn't mind it at all. (Although Nash and Jess were just kind of thrown in - I wonder if the show was short, and needed some extra scenes?) Dorian and Langston were great as always, Blair and John were on JUST ENOUGH - but not too much, and putting Addie and Adriana together was a STROKE OF GENIUS! ("Blair would kill me - she hates you, you know." LOL!!!!!!!!!!!) I loved Adriana talking about what a bitch Gigi's mere presence has turned her into, and even though I'm not always rooting for Adriana, at least she's halfway human to me right now.

As for Gigi - okay, I'll confess, I still see shrieking, shrill Mimi every time she's on. I know FF's swayed a lot of One Life fans to her side, but there were moments today where she got on my nerves as much as ever. And not in a "I love to hate her kind of way". She just has this weird way of projecting her voice. There's a boom mic above your head, Farah - you CAN be softer at times.

But overall, I'm happy to start the week off, and can't wait for the rest of the insanity.

Honestly?

(Sorry, Ryan...)

No. Not really.

Even when I thought Days was good, it didn't get this much positivity. Not since... I don't know... maybe the first MONTH JER came back? And even that wasn't all that much to write home about.

    • Robinson is less imposing than Johnson was and that makes the character seem completely different. If anything he came off as someone who could have played Doug. 
    • Exactly. That's a fertile ground, where a lot of drama could be mined from. That's a great idea. Especially since her kidnapping was a part of the Dimera/Kiriakis war at the time. Not could it cause conflict between Stephanie and Alex/the Kiriakises, it could also be tied to both families trying to buy the hospital, and how that would make the hospital look, since these villainous families both want to own it.
    • Hmmmmmmm... I'll have to go back and check

    • @j swift @carolineg I was looking at some scenes on YT of Shelley's take on Stephanie.. and her 2007/2008 take on Stephanie was very spirited, bold, and confident.   I often think her ordeal in 2009 when she was kidnapped and kept in the morgue by that creepy guy probably did change her.. but I don't recall the show ever focusing on the after effects of such a traumatic event. In fact... her novel/manuscript should have been loosely based on that trauma in a fictionized account.  Maybe the rest of the manuscript will involve some of that.. but I doubt Ron C would ever think to include that event in a constructive way to explain the current behaviors/motivations of Stephanie.
    • All recast reasons aside I wouldn’t want to think about those first few years when Steffy and Bill were manipulating everything behind the scenes and the back and forth with Wyatt if I were Hope myself.

    • I'm always down for more Gio, and he did look good today. But let's not pass on the chance to appreciate Chase in those jeans. I mean, come on. That was some nice booty poppin' right there. Maddening. I'd dislike hearing any character being this ridiculous and overbearing, but I really hate it when it's a character I love, as I do Dante.
    • My dude thinks he's living in the year 2011 with that hat he's wearing

    • 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
