I can't believe no one has posted yet..I'm literally in awe at how great today's show was...First off kudos to Thaao and Joseph for their magnificent scenes today..They both hit it out of the ballpark...When written right the Dimera's are such a fascinating family....I got chills as Stefano told Tony he had to pick a side as the battle lines were about to be drawn..And today's show should make the Tony and Anna fans very happy..it took about a year, but finally they are getting some awesome material..

Speaking of Anna, i absolutely loved her today...It was fun watching Anna interact with John, Sami, EJ, and even Kayla...Leann has great chemistry with everyone...My favorite Anna moments were her surprise at riding the motorcycle and her telling John she's wearing heels..Then i enjoyed both Tony and Kayla congratulating her for helping save Marlena..And of course Anna asking Tony if she helmet hair!!!too cute..

Sami and EJ were great today as well...They work so much better when they are supporting characters in the Dimera story, as opposed to last summer when the whole plot revolved around them.It seems like Dena or whoever finally has it right by having the story focus on Stefano's revenge on Marlena, and how that affects John..

Another noteworthy scene was Kayla telling John off..So happy that MBE is finally getting good material as well...Looking forward to her being apart of this arc...Also great cliffhanger today and i loved how the previews make you want to tune in tomorrow..Who would want to miss John and Stefano facing off for the first time??

I can't say how great it is to have my soap back! Monday's eppisode was amazing! That is the Days I fell in love with and can't wait to see the next eppisode. It is easily my favorite soap again. Finally!

I loved the scenes with Stefano and Tony. I got chills too. This is how the Dimera's should be written. This is what I love about them. I also enjoyed Anna's scenes. I really like her and am glad she is getting good material. I've always liked Kayla, even though it hasn't been easy lately, but she is getting good material now and I love that. Loved her telling off John. Loved Sami telling John that maybe they just need to accept him as he is now and stop wishing the old John to come back because he never will. I also loved John's reaction to all that.

I just loved everything about the show yesterday! It really is back and I couldn't be happier about that! :)

OK...I will comment! Today's show rocked! I haven't been able to say that since February. Now THIS feels like the DAYS I love (and sorry to all the JER haters but this feels like JER Days Round#1 and I love it!)

Wow...loved the Stefano/Tony scenes! So awesome! Marlena really screwed Stefano up...the man had tears in his eyes as he told Tony about the hell he's been through. Joe was great in those scenes! Stefano messing with John and Marlena is classic DAYS and has always been rating success! Yes it's been done a million times but why reinvent the wheel? lol Bring it on! :D

Loved Sami laying into Stefano! I always love fierce Sami as opposed to weepy whiny Sami. Also liked the scene with her and John. They definitely have a connection even after all these years.

Everybody else did a decent job in the acting department as well. Can't wait for the next show!

Today was the first time I thought Joe's acting lived up to the hype. I was impressed when he was telling Tony about what it was like for him while he was paralyzed, While Stefano isn't my favorite character, his return has definitely helped the stories to evolve. Liked all the different character interactions too. Anna and Kayla, Kayla and John, etc. Good stuff. Looking forward to the rest of the week.

I'm here. :)

Monday and today's episodes were excellent! It really kicked into high gear today. Stefano is causing havoc (loved the lockdown!!) in Salem again and he's going up against John/Marlena - this is the Stefano Dimera I love!

Keep it up DAYS!!

I have tears in my eyes right now! I am soooo happy with DAYS right at this moment! Tuesday's show was great! Remember the days when the opening scenes actually roped you into being interested in the rest of the show??? That hasn't really happened in a long time for me but when Stefano let John know that John's life as Nu-Stefano isn't gonna last and then it faded to the DAYS opening, I was like...OH SH**! John's gonna get it! That one moment had me so excited and took me back to what I used to love about DAYS. It always used to make me excited! I am loving it!!

I am so intrigued by the Nu-John/Stefano rivalry. Its gonna be different because John is different. Can't wait for it to play out!

I love this lock-down storyline! And has anyone noticed the music? It has changed and has become more mysterious and cryptic! I am loving it! Now if they wouldn't fade to black so fast before the commercial breaks and sorta use a slower fade like they used to, this would officially be the DAYS I grew up watching. ;)

Before I forget, I have a question...about Tony...is he being written as Stefano's biological child again? It seems like that keeps changing...

After watching todays episode i'm so anxious to see what happens tomorrow..The show is on fire right now and the best its been in a very long time..Stefano's return is being done perfectly...Loved the John and Stefano showdown...It was just as great as i imagined...Also John threatening Stefano with the cigar cutter was very intense..But Stefano actually scared me a bit when he said he'd kill another person John loved if John even broke a pinkie...This brotherly showdown between John and Stefano is just dynamite right now...

Marlena admitting to drugging Stefano was excellent..Deidre did a great job today, showing Marlena gradually getting weaker...And i'm loving seeing Kayla in doctor mode, its so refreshing...And its so nice seeing Marlena sharing scenes with Kayla, Tony, and Anna...

Speaking of Tony and Anna, they rock plain and simple...They are really proving what assets they can be to the show right now..And i think Thaao is proving that his emmy nomination was no fluke...Stefano calling Anna a meddlesome bitch was delicious..The dialog we are getting right now, is just as good as what we got during Hogan's run..

Finally the cliffhanger at the end was so well done..I was literally on the edge of my seat...Ed Scott thank you so much for these incredible episodes...

The best thing about Joe's return is it gives Thaao more to do on the show, and as we saw by the last two days those two work sooooooo well together.

These last couple days have been good. I can forgive the Reilly-ish purple smoke, because other writers (oh hi, Tom Langan and the Garden of Eden!) have done much, much worse.

Whoever wrote these episodes -- Ed? Dena? Ali? Keep it up!

Another great cliffhanger with Sami making EJ fall down the stairs. So this smoke/toxin is supose to bring out their fears or something? One thing I have to bitch about was the repetive dialogue - it was Reilly-esue. LOL We were told like four times that the smoke/toxin was probably some hallucagentic and Stefano was probably behind it and John explained two times why he was immune to the toxins.
