I'm not a fan of the episode titles, either -- although I am glad about the return of the next-day previews.

Jody. I like. Them, not the fan name. Daytime Confidential has this pic of them (below). I love how viscerally Jessica is holding Brody's face! :lol: It's like she wants to imprint herself on his skin.

However, Jessica is so calm, so in control at St Anne's, it's kind of throwing me for a loop. Bree Williamson obviously put in her Girl, Interrupted DVD in order to check out Angelina Jolie's I'm so normal, I'm crazy! performance. I can't help but feel that she's hiding behind the alters in order to absolve herself of responsability "My alter imprisoned my sister and her boyfriend, etc." The fact is, the alters appear to be acting out what Jessica wishes she could do but feels she can't. I would love it if Tess (this go around) and Bess turned out to be a big act on Jessica's part.

Yesterday's episode -- the Todd & Starr scenes. A-MA-ZING. I got chills, especially when Starr looked like she was about to throw up when he told her he loved her. Tomorrow, it looks like Viki pays him a visit. Goody.

The Todd and Starr scenes were very good. Finally, Starr showed how smart she was and didn't let Todd get away with any of his lies. KA seemed very mature to me in those scenes. She did a nice job.

Can't wait for Viki! Bring it on!

What was the point of maing Janet an old character? I didnt get it especially since that added absolutely nothing to the story and went no where. Is she gone for good bc they just mentioned that she left town

LOL... at Viki saying Todd sounds as stupid as Tina. Dont like her dissing my girl, but he is stupid.

    • 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?

    • Now this strikes me as funny. I have it up on my acct. The thing is I only have S2. Didn't want either 1 or 3.  Perhaps I should just list all of these that I have up.  Parodies: Dirty Sexy Money, Filthy Rich Incomplete: The Monroes, All That Glitters, Falcon Crest (have all just not all up), Once & Again S2 only Complete: Models Inc, Pasadena, Pacific Palisades, Paper Dolls, Flamingo Road  
    • This is wonderful! Thank you for posting this! I loved the first two seasons and never got to see the final season when they cancelled the DVD release. I've been hoping this popped up on streaming but no luck. Happy I'll finally get to see how it ended!

    • In case it is of interest to anyone here, I have digital copies (computer files, mp4 etc.) of all of the episodes. And, besides having the files they are all up on my usual video hosting site, acct name: shallotpeel, channel it is in: Primetime Soaps and file names like  Flamingo Road S1E15 Hurricane Flamingo Road was a primetime soap on NBC by Lorimar Productions. 2 seasons. 1980-1982. Morgan Fairchild, Barbara Rush. Developed by Rita Lakin.   
    • Arguably DAYS OF OUR LIVES has been brilliant lately & definitely was last week. But, here I am with nitpick & technicalities. This was the only misstep but it was just a stupid thing that should have been caught. Deidre Hall as Marlena has this one problematic line, "It didn't matter how many identities you had, I always knew exactly who you were, you were the man who saved my life." - Marlena, DAYS, 6-2-25 Unfortunately the flashback closest to it was when Marlena was on the phone, terrified because she thought he was Stefano. Yes, it's true that the line is not accurate. There were many times when she did not feel the way she is claiming because of whatever was going on in story with his 'retconned to hell & back' identity & origin story. Does it keep the whole week from being called excellent? Nope.

      Newsom is a craven opportunist, but his comments today were exactly how better people need to handle Trump.
