Really enjoyed today EXCEPT I kinda agree re Di. My mom called me up cuz she missed the past few eps and was so confused (She actually thought, cuz it was a diff actress, it was someone pretending to be Di and didn't understand how they'd be fooled! lol) It felt a bit much to me--though I get why some think it was better to bring a past character.

Oh and I don';t quite get how long Brott was hiding in that weird basement--and I wish we'd put him with godo actors not the worse on the show...

I enjoyed the entire episode.

It's too bad that Di was sacrificed but it's not as though the character would ever be brought back for a major storyline. She was barely even used after it was revealed that she wasn't Dixie. I'm glad Pratt brought in a character connected to Annie & Aiden for this plot twist. I agree with Cheap that Aiden should die now!

I loved seeing Ryan in jail. Where's the waterboarding when we need it?

Brot's being wasted in scenes with Colby. I guess Pratt wanted to find someone to be a talk-to for him, but the actress is just soooo bad that it's painful to watch their scenes!

Angie is a class act for inviting Rebecca to stay with them.

My only complaint about Jake/Taylor is how separated they remain from the rest of the show. They need to interact with more than just Tad & Frankie.

The actress who plays Colby isn't that bad, in all honesty.

Angie is awesome.

I'm really enjoying Laura Koffman but seeing her on AMC just makes me want her all that more on OLTL again as Cassie.

Taylor and Jake are way too sugary sweet for me. We get it, they're falling in love. No need to constantly beat us over the head with it.

The whole kidnapping plot is insanely bad (including the over the top acting by EVERYONE) and it's just ludicrous and pointless. Annie's nuts. WE GET IT. Why continue to beat us over the head with it?

I don't even feel like Di dies since it wasn't Kelli. What a waste of an amazing character.

The show is starting to slow down again. I do not know if I like much of what is going on. I was a big fan of the subtle flirtings of Jake/Taylor, but now it is too overt and down your throat. I am already annoyed with Brot/Colby.

The highlight for me was Lil A asking to sleep in his own room. I love the Chandler family. I love all the families. I hope Pratt remembers that these family units are AMC's greatest asset.

I am really disgusted with this kidnapping storyline. Mostly because of what they did to Di's character. It was as if she never meant anything to Annie or Aidan. I don't believe that I will ever be able to like Annie. She faked her daughter's kidnapping & killed her best friend all for the love of a man who doesn't want her. I get it that she is crazy, but I still can't like her. I can't believe that I am saying this, but Ryan should have custody of Emma. She needs to be kept away for her crazy a** mother.

Di might not have meant much to some viewers, but she did have fans. I think it was definitely due to Kelli Giddish. I only hope that she can go on to do great things. Thank Goodness she did not come back for this.

Cameron Mathieson's voice is like a foghorn. I am so sick of Ryan's braying.

Krustal/David/Amanda/JR = twisted. And I think I like it!

I felt nothing with the not-Di death. Kelli Giddish was Di. Nuff said.

I like Brot a lot and my heart hurt when I saw him listening to Gus & Harley's conversation. But good lord that chick who plays Colby has the WORST line delivery I have ever heard.

Given the ties Di has to core characters on this show, she mattered to some extent. It's stupid to bring back a character like this only to kill her off, and for what? I'm still waiting for the answer to the "for what"

Leave her with some unknown nanny, at least that makes some sense.

I can't imagine why people are bitching, oh yeah she faked her daughter's kidnapping and faked it like Emma was dead. Hmmm I seem to remember Babe faking Little A's death at one point.

I guess that means Annie is the new Babe? LOL

    • 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.
