rhythmchyc, WORD!!! I agree with EVERYTHING that you said! Mark H, you also have some good points. There were alot of fans that was very put off with the student/professor romance; I happened to like it but only because Adrianne and Eyal had great chemistry and it was written correctly at first. Adrianne had chemistry with everyone and If they had the right actress once again; there could be so much potential for this character; she is the future of the Abbott's after all.

I didn't like Leon either. But she had a weight to her that Tammin doesn't. It would be kinda odd if the writers revisited Colleen and JT. These two are in two completely different orbs on the show now. It'd be like pairing up Cane and Nina lol. I much rather Colleen and Kevin. If Todd could fall in love with Marty in much less capable hands over on OLTL, then Colleen could end up with Kevin. Especially if the actress has all the latent chemistry Kevin and Colleen shared. LML sucked balls but the time Leon and Rikaart in that freezer was golden soap opera.

I just don't see why if Tammin has all these other opportunities at her immediate reach, she'd stay with this show. I mean, it's good to have something to fall back on but why stay? And it seems the writers are still in the rebuilding process. Perhaps concentrating on Colleen at this point in time would be a waste and was another reason why they resolved the Devon/Ana and Colleen/Daniel/Lily story so quickly. They all really had great potential, if spread out as long as this Chloe baby daddy storyline will take to unravel.

I don't generally have a problem with the professor/student relationship storyline. In fact, it had great potential. My issue with the Cardigan pairing was that Podell had no chemistry with Mumbles and very little with Sursok. And for that matter, he didn't seem to have any chem with anyone else they tried to pair him with (Heinle, Bloom, Frantz) either.

Pun intended? :lol:

(I know that sounded childish but I couldn't NOT say it...)

The bottom line is that, accent issue aside, Sursok does have what it takes to mature Colleen and make her a core character - IF the writers stop ignoring her and IF she sticks around long enough.

Are you talking to me specifically? I wish I had a dollar for every time you've attacked me for daring to have an opinion that differs from yours.

As I said before, the reason for her absence this month is because she is doing a side project! What don't you understand about that?

Yeah, right.

Like you would know.

    • I find Missy Reeve's views offensive and I don't want to defend her, but I don't think she ever said anything publicly about Days "gay content".   In fact, I don't think she's ever said anything negative about Days at all.  There's no indication Missy is difficult or unprofessional on set-except for the whole affair thing years ago lol-but that's a whole different topic. I can dislike Missy as a person and still think she's the perfect fit for Jen.  Cady tried and it didn't work for me.  Whenever Missy steps into the role it works.  It's a two things can be true situation.  Missy has some bad opinions, but she's great at playing Jennifer.
    • Doesn't the funeral go into Tuesday 
    • Christian Streaty wrote her second freelance script today on Days. Surprised they gave the first funeral episode to a newbie.  
    • And the third thing, which I have no cite for, and I may look to see if one is findable, but supposedly she said that the show had too much gay content in it. And, to be fair, that could be someone making a criticism about balance & not be bigotry but when it's added to the other, that's why it bugs people.

      The greatest tv series season finale in history.   
    • Mick Savage was sooo unbearable. And more unbearable was the reaction from the female characters to him - they were acting like he is God's gift to women and sooo irresistible. To a point of unbelievable cringe. 
    • Today was a short one. Only 33 minutes.  The ‘Part One’ graphic at the beginning was pretty interesting though. I didn’t expect them to do something like that.  I like how everything was focused around John and his family and friends. Again, the acting and the dialogue was very well done and well written. And I love that they were able to incorporate Drake’s, “swing for the fences” phrase into the script. It was nice seeing everyone interact with each other, especially characters who don’t often share scenes together. It felt like every character was part of a big family or community. Plus, an outdoor funeral in June makes a lot more sense than an outdoor funeral in December.  But yeah, it’s very, very strange that Will isn’t at the funeral, especially since we know that

      I would much rather he had been there today. And, where’s Anna too? And Jack and Jennifer? What was the point of bringing them all back if they weren’t going to attend the funeral? I expected Steve to want to close down BlackPatch, though I’d rather he just retire and let Paul take it over. But I like that Kayla was there to comfort him. I wonder if he’s going to change his mind at some point.  It was nice seeing Shane again too. Now, he just needs to have more scenes with his son lol but I enjoyed seeing him comfort Marlena. I’m not really sure about his interaction with Cat though? Was it really necessary for this to happen now, at John’s funeral? They could’ve waited a little longer to introduce this story arc.  Btw, was Tate bleeding from his head in his first scene with Arianna? 
    • This is the coldest early June in my life. It's like it's January.

    • Now this strikes me as funny. I have it up on my acct. The thing is I only have S2.
