Just beautifully done. I could name some minor quibbles, but I won't, because what DAYS gave us today was golden. That was soap opera at its finest, paying homage to history and legacy and actors and the audience. This is why we love soaps. -
To clarify, we could argue about the necessity to have John Black speak while in hospital, but the body created an opportunity for people to touch him, and move around him. Even though I never totally suspended my disbelief, I appreciated their creative choice to form a visual representation of loss. Certainly there were other ways to tell this story, but it will stay with me because those production choices enabled these performances. However, with disdain, I note that Days has found an odd middle ground between a flashback and a montage. I define a flashback as least a couple of rounds of dialogue, if not a whole scene. And a montage would be a visual snippet without much dialogue. But, these were often just a single line, or an entrance. It felt like a bit of a tease, and made me wish that Peacock had curated a playlist of John Black's Greatest Hits, like they do for some Bravo shows or SNL characters. OT - but they have yet to maximize that platform. -

It's tough for me because I feel like this has always been Lulu. She used to be even worse, slut-shaming, verbally abusing other women, and always being written as being in the right. They should let Brook Lynn get dirtier, but I think the material of Lulu digging and being self-righteous, making everything worse even while not intending to do so, but also not being as in the wrong as Dante thinks she is, all makes sense for her. But I don't have as much experience with Lulu as a lot of fans as I just could never stomach her beyond the time she was a mute kid, so I don't have much right to speak. -
Thanks @JAS0N47 for all the ratings! All My Children hits Number 1 in the ratings for the first time in its history during the week of 8/20/73-8/20/73! -
I think the writing is slanted against Lulu. I don't think there is an issue with the character in general. I just think Lulu comes doesn't get many layers or nuance in her writing. Lulu becomes obnoxious and a bully to Brook Lynn and both characters SHOULD have flaws. -

Amanda Setton and Rena Sofer was once again really good in today's episode. As a Lucky/Liz fan, I didn't like their scenes either. And they are nowhere near a proposal because they haven't been given a real story.
