So, Phil Mitchell is just completely detestable in every way. I hate him and want him to die a miserable death. Furthermore, this Jay kid is a terrible actor and needs to disappear.

Do Kat and Alfie need to be in every episode?

That scene in the park with Carol and Max was must see. When Max sounded like he was about to cry, I instantly forgave him for being a prick.

I love Liam! I want to see a bit more of this kid. It was nice to see some character building moments for him and Tiffany.

That video with Billie was just weird. "Hey mom, die!!! HaHaHa ... No one says that, drunk or otherwise, unless they're psychotic. I don't care how overbearing Carol is/was.

I'm sorry, I do not have any sympathy for Carol over what Max told her, in everything else yes, I do feel sorry for her. She was worse with the way she often came down on him when Bradley died. The man was grieving for his son, and all she could tell him what a bad father he was and how he's to blame for a lot of what happened. At least Max gave her back a taste of that. At least Max freely admits that he has some blame for screwing up Bradley's life, instead of Carol who is in denial about her smothering of Billie, which led to him having a bad opinion of her.

Today's episode:

Tiffany annoys the piss out of me. I do not find her cute and precocious at all. It's like they always have to try so hard to make her seem "cute."

Enjoyed the Max and Carol scenes, even if I don't think Max owes her any apology.

That fight scenes between Bianca and Kim and then Bianca breaking down in Kim's arms was nice too. It was unexpected, but it made it better.

That video was reality hitting Carol in the face. I don't think Billie hated her, but she was a smothering presence in his life and they didn't have a perfect relationship.

Looks like Billy Mitchell's story is going to start to heat up with this new woman. I think she had a nice presence in her first episode (though the actress has been on the show before).

Kat hasn't been on since last Friday until today, and Alfie hasn't been on since Monday. They've been in nothing by throwaway scenes this week.

Liam is dumb as hell. He saw Kim being drunk and her being the one that instigated the kiss with Ricky. He's acting like Ricky intentionally kissed Kim and they were both in a consenting state.

It doesn't matter, Kat was not needed today at all. I wanted to punch her in the face.

I don't even understand how someone can hate Liam and Tiffany, especially Liam. That kid is cool beans. And that's saying a lot coming from me, who usually wants soap children to meet their untimely demise in the most gruesome of fashions (Jack, OLTL anyone?) I even like that his hat has basically become a character all unto itself. That's right, I SAID IT!

I'd take Liam over Phil, Jay, Shirley, Heather and sometimes Kat, anyday.

Speaking of Phil, FASHION POLICE NEEDED!!! What dumb whore decided it would be okay to put Steve McFadden in sweat pants. Can one say, MAMMAL TOE? That is rule NUMBER ONE of the Pedophilia Vibe look. Disgusting.

I don't think Liam is as annoying to the extent as Tiffany is. At least they don't constantly try to force this tacky cute shtick on him like they do with Tiffany.

He was just stupid to interpret drunk off her ass Kim kissing Ricky as anything serious and consenting. Any kid that that saw that would know it's nothing meaningful, IMO.

      DAYS: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      By DRW50 · Posted

      I watched some of Friday's show. It was sweet to see Julie celebrate her wedding anniversary to Doug (their second - kudos to the writing team for remembering). Those moments with Julie are always so moving to me because you can tell they are straight from Susan's heart.  I know Patsy Pease hasn't been on DAYS in 15 years, but I still miss Kim in weeks that are so important for the Bradys and their history on the show. Michael Dietz was always a very likeable presence onscreen, even if he was never the greatest actor. That hasn't changed.  I was impressed with how well put together the montage was of John's various identities/memories. A number of those stories were ludicrous, and several of them never should have existed, but the way this was all crafted you could see just what a unique character all those parts made John...and how much Drake played the material as best he could, no matter what. The mirror scene was a great inclusion as that really wrapped everything of John together - viewers never truly knew who he was, nor did the people in Salem, but it didn't matter, as everyone loved him anyway.

      GH: Classic Thread

      By DRW50 · Posted

      Thanks @Paul Raven  Amidst these terrible stories I see we get the arrival of Heather. I never knew Alice forged references for her. No wonder she later became a murderer. She was a criminal all along.  The Jeff/Monica/Rick story always seems so brazen and so depressing all at once - I can't imagine how people would have talked about it in the Internet/Twitter era.  I don't understand the choice to put Audrey and Steve through even more misery after they had been separated for almost a decade. The sudden inclusion of magazine stories is fascinating...and I'm not sure if it is ever a huge story narrative for GH after this point, even when characters on the show ran magazines. The end of the Leslie and Cam story did not need to be like this (and feels a little rushed). Had every woman on the canvas at this time been raped?

      I am bewildered and fascinated by the choice to have John Loprieno and Adam Storke play out all their dramatic sequences here in clown makeup. They really took that circus motif seriously.

      Does anyone have a favorite adult Russ Matthews?  Which actor did you like most?  Sam Groom, Robert Hover, or David Bailey??  And why?   And if Russ had returned late in AW's run, what actor would you have wanted to portray him?  One of the former actors, or someone new??

      I think the move to NBC dealt a huge blow to SFT that caused the show to slowly bleed out throughout their almost five year run on that network. SFT was a CBS show and it really showed when it first started airing on NBC so I understood P &G having to make adjustments to the soap in order to make it fit onto the NBC schedule vs the CBS schedule. The 1983 Tomlin/Lee era was probably the strongest while it was on NBC.  They managed to still focus on Stu/Stephanie/Jo while developing a strong youth focus with Wendy/Warren/Suzi/Kristen/ Brian with the comic element with Rhonda Sue and her partner.  This helped the show from staying the Liza/Travis show.. which it was in 1981/1982.

      Hey, I'm wondering if anyone has cross-referenced Spauldingfield's undated episodes with the German playlists? An angel has been uploading to the Soap Vault and it would be great to be able to date all those episodes. I have access to rename them, if anyone has a list.
