Melanie and Chelsea look alike to me outside of their hair. Victor not caring about Nicole's past was pretty funny.

Loved the Lexie and Stefano scenes. RJ had me fooled for a moment when it seemed like she was going to take up Stefano's offer about helping Theo. I actually wanted her to, but I can understand why she wouldn't. And it was great hearing her call out Stefano on how he claims to love his kids but has done nothing but torture them.

Chelsea fits so much better in a triangle with Nick and Melanie than in a story with Daniel and Kate..So glad to have the real Chelsea back...Also Molly Burnett is rocking as Melanie, what a great casting addition...

Victor and Nicole's scenes were great and i hope we get more of them..Victor's phone call to Nico was interesting...And loved Nicole threatening Trent at the end of the show..

But by far, the best scenes today were Stefano and Lexie...These two are incredible together..And its so seldom we get to see them sharing scenes together...I have to wonder if Stefano was genuine in wanting to help Theo or if it was all a ploy to get Lexie back on his side...Its really been refreshing to have Abe and Lexie as prominent characters in Salem again....Its about damm time..

OMG! Stefano & Lexie sceens were AMAZING! Like.. i dont even know what else to say.

I liked the stuff with trent. This entire damn town hates him. hes so gonna be killed. Will this be the first murder in years, decades, that the DiMera's are not the main suspects? lol. THose brady's are not as much of saints as they think they are....

I cant stanbd melanie. Nick bores me. And Chelsea is just blahh. Stpehanie is also rather blahh. When Max is the most intersting person under 25 something is wrong...

I was impressed with RJ yesterday. At the start of the show, I just thought not another my father is so evil conversation, but it worked for me. I was glad to see them finally have Lexi say enough.

Molly Burnett is an amazing addition to the cast, I thought she was great yesterday! I'm so glad Nick isn't going running back to Chelsea, there's a start of something sweet with Nick & Melanie.

Yeah, Molly rocks. :wub: I agree that Chelsea is better in a triangle with Nick/Melanie than Daniel/Kate.

I loved how Nick gave Chelsea the cold shoulder when Chelsea wanted to hang with Nick. bahaha

I think it was both - I'm glad Stefano mentioned Theo's autism. Those were great scenes with Lexie/Stefano. I wish they could share more scenes too.

I think Molly Burnett is an awesome addition. As for the "Melanie" love, I think Molly Burnett brings a spunk and sassy charm to the show that Shayna Rose brought, without being so overboard. She showed her range in playing Melanie's anger at Trent. She'll be a worthy adversary to Chelsea. Molly is a cute girl without that Barbie Doll perfection, which is another plus. She's got the sass Morgan DID have originally in the sorority storylines, (which got watered down during her "Wahhh, wahhh, whehre's mah daddy" storylines and only recently, did it reappear, just in time for her to get canned.) And she and Nick are adorable. Nick gets to be the hero.

This week has been pretty good. (Haven't seen today's episode yet). The only thing that's bothering me are all the heavy anvils dropping around all over the place about Trent.

I hate Trent! He's so freaking smug that I was literally cheering Max on when he was pummeling him in the suite today. For a second there, I thought Melanie was going to fall for Trent's pleas and agree to help him, despite Max's protest, but I'm glad she remained strong and told her father, flat out no. I had to laugh when Nick came running in and held Max back. Max could easily push skinny Nick over and go after Trent if he wanted to. That was funny. :lol:

It was nice to see some Chick scenes today. I really like this couple and I hate that that Hogan's team is no longer writing because they just got this couple and wrote them in a unique way that made fans quickly fall in love with these two together, rather than being annoyed that two younger characters are instantly thrown together. Because that's pretty much what happened. Nick came on in November and by January/February, they were together. Under Hogan's writing team, Nick and Chelsea just played off each other well. I saw a little of that today, but Nick is not the same unique character he was before. Before, he was this unique character that had self-concious issues and did whatever anyone wanted, especially when it came to Chelsea. Now, he's the calm and cool guy opposite of Max, the tough and brooding guy. Oh well.

Back to the Chick scenes, I'm glad they had Nick telling Chelsea the truth. She did hurt him when she stupidly left him for Daniel, her dumbass crush. And now, she has no say in who he sees or is interested in. Chelsea had her chance with Nick and she took him for granted. Whether Nick is interested in Melanie or anyone else, it's not Chelsea's business anymore. And that's her fault.

Why does Roman keep pushing Bo and Hope to take the commissioner's job, instead of taking it himself? I vaguely remember the scene when Mayor Marino was preparing to announce the new commissioner and he asked Roman, one last time, if he was interested in the job. I think Roman said he didn't want the job because he wouldn't do that to Abe. But he wants Bo and Hope to do this? They're Abe's friends as well. Oh well. I hope, in the end, Hope is given the job. It'll just be so much more future story to have Hope as Bo's boss.

Feisty Caroline is back and I love it! :wub:

Up until Nicole and Philip started discussing Trent at the end of the episode, the Chez Rouge scenes felt very out of place.

I hate what they're doing to Lucas and Chloe, Chloe especially. The way she was being a selfish little bitch when it comes to Lucas being worried about Allie was not the way to write these scenes. You could have still had Chloe on edge about being involved in Lucas' life because of Allie without her coming off as a selfish bitch that wants all of Lucas' attention, and the attention he's giving Allie. That just ruined Chloe in my eyes today. Bad. You can tell they're ending this relationship and it's really come out of nowhere if you ask me. When Lucas and Chloe were fighting about the babysitter, I was sitting there wondering where in the hell did this come from?

And don't even get me started on Nicole and Chloe's insta-friendship. These two should never be friends. Period.

    • Concluding 1976... Raymond Schafer arrives in Springfield and begins an extensive probe into Malcolm’s death, puzzling Ed, who wonders why most of Schafer’s question sessions keep turning back to Rita’s involvement with Malcolm. Ed assures the man that Rita’s only connection with Malcolm was as his nurse; he is unaware that Schafer knows a great deal more about Rita than he does. Just to protect Rita, Ed has Mike check on Schafer’s credentials, and learns that he’s a  well-respected criminal attorney. The waitress at the restaurant where Malcolm suffered his stroke tells Schafer that the woman who was with him reacted very professionally to the sudden emergency, as if she were a nurse. Realizing that her little sister has fallen hard for Tim, Rita warns him that she’s very vulnerable and innocent, but Tim tells Rita her advice isn’t necessary. But Tim then receives a plum job offer to be chief neurological resident at a prestigious Philadelphia hospital and can’t pass up the opportunity. Evie is crushed by the news and spends the next several days at home crying. Joe Werner, fully recovered, has accepted a post as a medical aide in a destitute village in India and leaves alone, with Sarah to follow him later. Justin asks Sarah to consider a partnership with him in private practice, but she explains that she thrives on the hospital atmosphere. When a call comes from India that Joe has had another massive attack, Sarah leaves on the next available flight and arrives only moments before he dies. The painful news is relayed back to Cedars at once. Sara returns from India a heartbroken woman, but the day-to-day involvement of raising T.J. and of her career seem to be her salvation. Justin shows a surprisingly compassionate and understanding side to Sara, but, ironically, Justin’s ex-wife, Jackie, arrives in Springfield with her diabetic father, who is suffering from a heart attack. In the process of consulting with Justin on her father’s condition, Jackie comes face to face with Sara for the first time since their college days. Evie’s heartbreak at Tim’s departure turns to fury and hatred when she inadvertently discovers a letter which Tim wrote to Rita just after he left. In it he concedes that Rita was right about Evie’s vulnerability where he was concerned but reminds Rita that he badly hurt her in the same way she feared Evie would suffer. Evie is now sure that Rita somehow forced Tim to leave town and is livid at the idea that Tim was Rita’s lover. She insists she’s cutting off her relationship with Rita and will pay her back for any help she’s received in the past. Ben and Hope’s wedding plans are off, as Ben, while still insisting he’s innocent, won’t explain why the robbery evidence points to him. Hope feels his unwillingness to tell her the truth makes marriage to him impossible, but confides to Ann that she is miserable without him. Ben has echoed these sentiments to Mike but won’t confide in him, either as Hope’s father or as an attorney.   Holly is trying very hard to build a life without Ed, but since she sees him virtually every day at work,she’s unable to put him out of her mind. She accepts a date with a member of the hospital administration staff but is unable to avoid making comparisons between Ed and this young man and winds up alone, sadly holding Ed’s picture and recalling how much she loves him. Believing that the hospital board’s conclusions on Grainger’s death have settled the question once and for all, Rita has regained her self-confidence, and her romance with Ed is growing daily. They admit their love for each other, and Ed confides that he intentionally  held back with Rita for fear of making another mistake. Rita then tells Ed she has never married because for her marriage must be forever. Rita’s mother realizes that Rita is truly in love when she confides in her that she doesn’t understand why she’s been so lucky in having him love her and how she wants to be the very best person she can be for him. Ed proposes marriage to Rita and gives her time to think about it before answering. Rita painfully realizes that her past could, if it rose again against her, make a life with Ed a lost dream. But Raymond Shaefer has been quietly but efficiently carrying on his investigation and has learned that Grainger argued with Rita at her apartment. He presents the evidence he’s compiled to District Attorney Eric Van Gelder, who decides the case warrants further investigation. Rita goes to Ed’s office to tell him she loves him but can’t marry him, that she doesn’t deserve him and “can’t do it to him.” As she turns from a confused Ed to leave, she finds the district attorney and a police officer outside Ed’s door, waiting to arrest her. Ed, insisting that a serious mistake has been made, calls Mike to help her as Rita, shocked and humiliated, is taken under arrest through the hallways of the hospital in which she works. Mike manages Rita’s release on bail only after she has had to submit to the degrading booking procedure. Mike sees her alone at her apartment, explaining he can help her only if she tells him the whole truth. Rita equivocates until Mike mentions Texas, indicating to Rita that he knows at least some of the story. Van Gelder has, in fact, let Mike see the bulk of evidence in the case against Rita, to convince him her arrest wasn’t a capricious whim. Rita explains to Mike that Malcolm believed she intentionally vilified him to his father, to do him out of his rightful inheritance, and then wanted his father dead to collect her money. Mike expresses his appreciation of Rita’s honesty, promising to help her. But Rita’s tormented dreams confirm that she hasn’t yet told all the truth, and after Peggy visits, expressing firm support, Rita tells Roger she has to reveal his part in the story. Roger painfully tells Rita about his being Christina’s father to show her that if Ed knew, it would end Rita’s chances with him forever. Rita, who was ready to tell Ed the whole story, now realizes how risky that would be. Adding to Rita’s pain is her forced leave of absence from the hospital until she’s cleared and the embarrassment of seeing her name in the headlines.

    • Yes, but the stories are all pretty awful Seeing Victor rehashing his hatred of the Abbotts  when he married one of them and has a daughter that is half Abbott as well as walking around with Traci's daughter's heart keeping him alive makes him look worse than he already is. And I remember he and Jack chatting amicably in the past few years. Victor interfering in Kyle/Claire is just repeat of Billy/Victoria. Sharon, Nick,Phyllis etc are around but again the stories are lacking.
    • I think Kevin's 1996 Emmy was fair enough. He barely appeared for his second. I don't think anyone else on the list is that deserving but I might have gone with Moore as he did try with the whole Keesha AIDS story. @alwaysAMC Thanks to slick jones' cast list I was able to see that Nikki Rene played Tina. Not much on her, as you mentioned. Tap and a few Broadway listings (it doesn't help that a younger actress with a similar name is in a lot of roles).

    • Thank you. That does ring a bell. I remember Theresa and Julian's drunk, giggly fake wedding (with Julian asking "Whassup?" to the minister). Was Bruce tricking the pair as a prank, or did somebody put him up to it? I especially liked Katherine recalling how dashing young Alistair was when he'd pick up Rachel for dates, and how she wished she could be her sister, then feeling guilty once Rachel had her boating accident ...
    • And Kevin Mambo beat Shemar Moore for those two Emmys. I chalk up the wins to the voters not wanting Jonathan Jackson to eventually end up with a five peat (he won 1995, 1998, 1999). These were the 1996 and 1997 Younger Actor races. 1996: Nathan Fillion, Jonathan Jackson, Kevin Mambo (winner), Shemar Moore, Joshua Morrow 1997: Steve Burton, Jonathan Jackson, Kevin Mambo (winner), Shemar Moore, Joshua Morrow
