DAYS: Week of May 19

[JackPeyton]

Theo's hair was amazing! I love babies with mohawks!! Abe & Lexie are great, i love seeing them again. Even if this martial problem storyline came out of nowhere.. tho honestly they never delt with any issues because theyw ere always ignored so... man Renee Jones is flawless! The issues wiht Theo are real and im glad to see a soap taking it on. No it isnt front and center and it isnt really a storyline, but it is an issue for his parents. and OMG they were on more than one segment!!

Max & Nick are great. Love the friendship and the talks between them. I also loved how angry Max was when he thought daniel was going for chelsea but Nick told him he thinks it just happened. explains why nick isnt so upset about it, tho you can tell he is hurt.

Chelsea and Daniel. man i love them. That is pure LUST. SC is soooo sexy. would daniel really have a locker with his name on it when he isnt even on staff at the hospital? After they argue about the relationship, chelsea is about to walk awya before saying "Just so you know, we are NOT over" and then walks out the door. god i love it!

Maggie! 2 days in a row! OMFG! I loved her reactions to what Lucas couldnt do. Her hand over her mouth, eyes wide. She was so sad. I loved Lucas finding out that Sami and the twins moved into the DiMansion. and is Lucas suposed to be in prison or the salem jail? Have Maggie & Marlena had any scenes since john cameback? That is on e of my fave friendships i have seen on soaps and its been ignored for years now. and WTF? Mickey & Maggie wouldnt go with him to the mansion to make sure everything goes smooth? bullshit. but then again lucas being released the the dimera mansion? bullshit. and in the midle of the night? more bullshit.

ohhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! Ejami sex was HAWT!!! "shut up. just shutup and kiss me!" i loved the way thyey were kissing eachother and sucking on eachothers bodys. then the babies cry. omg the passion between them! the raw sexual chem! the romance! EEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

I dont know how to word this so im just gonna say it... Alison Sweeney's boobs are huge! OMG!

god i am shocked but i like stax. they are good together. however i really like the chem between Nick & Steph. I love the dynamic between these three. It actually works much better without Chelsea to be honest.

I would kill for some Morgan & Philip scenes!

I really like Steve and Kayla. I believe they are being better developed now than they have been since they returned. I like Bo and Hope a lot. I think Bo and Kayla are very believable as brother and sister. I think the four of them need to stay in stories together. For the first time in a very long while, I'm enjoying Marlena and John. John is starting to be interesting again. While I'm enjoying John, Drake H. really is a very poor actor and does not seem to have gotten any better over the decades. Interestingly, both Mary Beth Evans and Steven Nichols are better actors than many of the stalwarts on the show.

I'm not falling for Chelsea and Daniel. The age difference is just too much for me. I really like both characters, but I feel that Daniel should be with Chelsea's mother. I like Max and Nick as friends. There are not many friends in that generation.

Philip is becoming my favorite character. EJ and Sami were hot today, but I am so glad that Lucas is back. I actually would like to see him in a story that did not involve Sami. He's such a great outlaw character and I think he could and should evolve much as Bo did. Lucas is the good-hearted troubled guy in my opinion. It was good to see Mickey and Maggie, although I'm not into the pushing older characters out front movement. It's nice to see them, but they aren't the stars of the show any more and I don't want them to be. I do like Kevin Dobson in the part. It was a good hire.

Bottom line: I'm really enjoying DOOL and finding it fun to talk about the show. I don't care who the writer is. I enjoy watching the show.

Ej and Sami were extremely hot today and Dena has officially turned me into a fan of then, when i couldn't stand them last year..I'm also looking forward to seeing what she has planned for Lucas as well..My favorite part of todays show was the Abe and Lexie scenes..There is speculation that Theo might be autistic. i would love for a story like that for Abe and Lexie..

[JackPeyton]

re Theo.... i do think it would be great for him to be autistic, however i dont think thats where its going. I think they are masybe gona do the he is in a hostile home and can feel it. i like that angle too. either weay im just glad to have a HW who is writing for abe & lexie, and for more than one segment a week.

[jayoster]

Mine too

Those scenes with them all at home together was so refreshing. Im looking forward to their visit with the marriage counselor. Should be good.

I think you mean Don Craig (Marlena was married to him in thelate 70's, very early 80's). They have a lot of history. From DJ's crib death, to Marlena's rape recovery, to her evil twin debacle, those two were a bonified couple with a lot of depth and chemistry.

Personally if we are going to give John some real competition, I would bring back Wayne N as Roman. That triangle in the early 90's was truly the best. The chemistry between all three was incredible, and the history and depth gave it a cutting edge.

Bottom Line (IMO): I'm a John and Marlena fan. I'm not as venomous as many in their fan base, but I Love me some J&M. We simply need a good writer who can get Marlena's fight and vigor back, while focusing on the chemistry between the two. Marlena needs her own storyline, John needs to start acting more normal (without being boring), and we need some romance for these two.

[JackPeyton]

I wish days would bring Don back and do a Maggie/Don/Marlena triangle.

[KevC1980]

Really great show today..It was so much goodness packed in one episode...First off loved seeing Tony and Anna again, and it was nice to see them sharing scenes with Roman and Kate..Aww that quad is such a missed opportunity...But the proposal was very nice...Hope they get a beautiful wedding, but with Day's current budget i'm not sure it will be too lavish..

I was glad to see see Bo and Hope sharing some light scenes together and with Ciara at the end..That little girl is such a cutie and really looks like she could be Bo and Hope's daughter..Also liked that Hope mentioned taking a picture for Shawn..

Abe and Lexie's scenes with their therapist was great...I really hope to see more of this story and i hope we see the outing with Theo....James and Renee deserve a meaty storyline..

Steve and Kayla also had very nice scenes..Mary Beth was fantastic again..loved them picking the name Joe, and was very surprised they brought up Adrienne's son being named Joey...Drew i know you had a gripe about them naming him the same name as his cousin, so make sure to watch that scene..

And finally, the real drama was between Lucas and Sami..Wow, what an entrance..Great stuff and i'm glad Lucas got to hold Ali..Looking forward to the rest of the showdown tomorrow..And i really felt bad for EJ when he walked back into the empty bedroom...

[XxTaraXx]

He'll be right back. He just went out to check the mail.

[Pest Spray]

No, I meant Craig. Craig Wesley. They tested them in 2001 a little bit. They had great, easy chemistry.

I know who Don Craig is. I loved him. He's my second favourite Marlena-husband (yes, I love him more than RoWayne, Don and Marlena were magic together). I love Don Craig (god, JA, I love him, fantastic actor and he had brilliant chemistry with Deidre), but they shouldn't go there again. Now, I do miss Marlena being supported by her BFF Eugene and FHNF (Former Hubby Now Friend) Don, so a friendship would be awesome.

The problem with bringing Wayne back is that Roman is not a threat to John & Marlena. In the early 90s, maybe he was. But Marlena has made it so clear to John and to everyone, time and time again that she loves John and that while she loves Roman and cares for him deeply as a friend, there's not anything left there). They have comfortability and a bond, but that's it. So it just wouldn't work for me. The magic of the triangle in the early 90s was that Marlena truly didn't know what to choose. Did she choose the easy guy, the family she had with him was there, he was waiting for her to committ (which was ironic) or did she follow her heart and her passion and choose the "replacement" as Roman called him, in John.

Bottom line IMO: We need Sheri Anderson! She got Marlena, she knew how to play the DHs against each other and with each other, and it was just a beautiful kind of magic.

[Roman]

I still crack up about that. He walked out to check the mail.....and hasn't been seen since.

[Pest Spray]

No, he went out to post some letters... THE MAIL MAN TOOK HIM!

[Antoyne]

Jawn's being funny again. I love that he only calls Lucas, "The Convict"

Loving Tamara today. She's showing those shades that made her Carly likeable.

[Antoyne]

OMG, pleeeease never bring back John.

Jawn: Part of me is glad that Elvis finally did you.

[XxTaraXx]

Ava is love.

Put her with Philip!

Chloe is hate. I cannot deal with her right now.

I missed yesterday's episode bc of my DVR, but I found all the Lucas/Sami/EJ stuff on youtube. I thought it was interesting that Sami said it was just sex before Lucas walked in on them and EJ is seeing clouds and sunshine and daisies for them for the rest of his life. LOL. Come on.

I hate that Lucas called Sami a lying, cheating whore. I mean, she is. But still. Gah. That word whore is so vile.
