I thought Max/Trent (DEan) were great today. Roscoe Born is such a talent and I think he fits in very well on DOOL.

I'm also loving NuJohn. I think Old John needs to stay on the disk that Phillip has and the new John continue just as he is. He's funny and he is something other than an angel. DH actually is doing a good job playing NuJohn and I've never been impressed with him as an actor before. It was funny when he was on his date and EJ walked in, then Lucas and then the two women and Rolf.

Ava is becoming my favorite character and I think Nicole and Ava are a great pair. I'm hoping that there is a change in plans and Ava stays around. I'm also enjoying the dock scenes and it does remind me of "the day" as folks say in reference to another soap.

I'm happy with DOOL right now and do acknowledge that is subject to change because of the writer. I hope she continues to do OK for a while longer. It's the only soap I watch every day. Y&R has gotten pretty dull as of late and I hope HS changes that.

Add me to those loving Ava, TB was a fantastic addition to the show....And i'm enjoying her so much more now that she's mixing it up with John and Nicole...Nicole and Ava are a riot..I really liked how Ava offered to protect Nicole if she needed it...I really hope Days does all it can to keep TB with the show after the summer..I don't want her to leave..

I think I don't like NuJohn because of what it's doing to Marlena. At first I loved Jawndie and I was intrigued by the story of Marlena falling for the nuJohn while still being in love with the old but they haven't really delivered with that. Instead, it seems now that her entire life revolves around him and it's annoying. I mean could she have one conversation with someone where she doesn't mention John? Toups I agree with what you said about Claire. She made nuJohn more human and that's something that's missing right now.

I do like Ava, and any scene that Tamara is in is good for me. I'm also intrigued by Nicole's history with Trent, because it's interesting to see her actually scared but I think I've had just about of Mad Max Syndrome. He needs to chill out.

I really want Ava to stay. I look forwarding to seeing Nicole and Trent in scenes together because the actors are both wonderful. I'm hoping DOOL does not take Trent too far over the top so that he can't survive on the show. I want him to stay.

I like those scenes a lot too. Darrin, in my opinion, has always been pretty good, but he is stepping it up with Roscoe. I think Roscoe Born is such a talented guy that he brings out the best in others. I very very much hope that they don't write Trent so over the top that he becomes a cartoon character. They did that on Y&R and OLTL. I'd like to see him be more like he was on Santa Barbara.

Yeah, those were good scenes (acting wise), but I still don't like the story. So Trent is Max's father and he was banging Nicole and he'll be Higley's next "villian of the week" (as Kenny puts it). LOL I bet Roscoe will be off the show before 2008 is over.

I hate that they're playing it like Jawn or Philip killed Paul. That doesn't sit right with me. I can't see them as cold blooded killers. :(

And why kill Paul? He's Morgan's dad! Are they not planning to keep Morgan?

Why doesn't Ava interact with Steve anymore? She just forgot about the man she loved? Ava and Jawn dating?

Chelsea and Dan going on a date? Oh joy!! <_< I thought he didn't want to be near her?

What's wrong with Kate? What happened to her? Did I miss something?

Toups, the Ava/Steve thing is bugging me out as well. It's like they've forgotten the story they were telling ONE MONTH AGO.

Steve/John scenes? Kayla/Marlena scenes re: Ava mucking in their lives? Anything?! SOMETHING?!

It makes my head hurt.

      I didn't post about it in the BtG thread as I still don't watch the show (an hour runtime is just too much for me right now with a new soap I can't just mostly skip through) but I can't imagine the ego of someone who is hired as a breakdown writer and decides to [&#33;@#&#036;%^&amp;*] their own name all over the show. Classless beyond belief. Any writer who cares more about masturbatory behavior than quality of work should not be hired.

      Yeah, it would've made things more tightly woven.

      I like Chelsea and Madison. Two very pretty black women as a potential couple. But I really wish this show would've showcased two very handsome black men as a couple instead.

      Irna wasn't involved with ATWT at the time of Neil's death, was she? I'm imagining a situation where right after his latest doctor's appointment, he's killed.

      We all knew that TT is busy so if she's off screen for a bit except for phone calls and/or visits.. then it is what is. Ashley was nicely used as support... which the writers should have been doing since day 1 so that viewers could understand why exactly she's on the show LOL Chelsea/Madison.... seems too good to be true... we shall see. Shanice as a PT... if it means more airtime.. I'm good.

      The rumor Zimmer writes about sounds like something Paul Rauch would have told Zimmer about Jacqueline Courtney as a way to discredit Courtney as Rauch loved to do that sort of thing. Zimmer probably just retroactively fit it into her story. Zimmer does not have good sense of time in her memoir. Who knows?!!? Zimmer strikes me as someone who always has to be competing with women.  Zimmer and 1986: If I had no context and someone told me that someone in the 1986 scenes would win four Emmys, I would immediately pick Denniston. Granted, I've only watched about a week's worth, but my word, Zimmer just fades into the background even when she's the main player in the storyline. There's no life in her performances. It feels that Zimmer is unhappy and that she's letting it impact her acting.
