Ooops! Can our threads be combined? EDIT: Problem solved! :P

For some reason, I didn't think Erica was going to bounce back from the stabbing quite this quickly, thought it had something to do with the DWTS scheduling. What was I thinking expecting TWO comas for the Kanes?? BTW, I like her hair color and Ryan's jacket.

So what's the real deal with Brot? How convenient, make him a jerk to get him the hell outta here? This is like the ep of the Golden Girls where Blanche gets over herself and falls for the dude in the wheelchair only to find out that he's a married man.

Maybe it's just because I was tired when I watched it last night but I thought this was a boring episode.

Once again, too much of it was focused on Ryan & Greenlee for my taste.

I didn't feel any chemistry between David & Erica in these scenes and imo their flirting fell flat. I was glad to see Erica rebounding so quickly and taking on Greenlee again. The scene where Erica said she was sorry for Greenlee was the highlight for me.

Brot/Taylor is playing out as such a cliché. I hate how he's pushing her away because he thinks Jake can make her happy. 

Kendall's failing health had potential to be heartbreaking (no pun intended) with Zach & Reese trying not to tell Erica or Bianca the full story, but it has one major flaw; there is such a thing as a heart transplant or an artificial heart. I would have expected Zach to get on the phone and try to put Kendall on a list. At the very least, he should have asked David about it and David could have shot it down because of Kendall's other medical conditions.

I still don't think he'll take them romantic, as in a couple. But I'm really starting to think Ms. Kane will take a ride on the love train at some point. Ah.

I wish more people felt that way. LOL, I hope more do, actually. But having just seen the scenes, I think that's the best since VI has been back. They were fantastic. They have this natural ease together. I think VI brings out a better actress in Susan. And Erica makes David a little softer, lighter.

    • @soapfan770 1995/96 to 1999/2000 were not very good in primetime. CBS and ABC both had primetime mess eras, and that's how NBC got away with their Thursday garbage shows finishing in the Top 10. Remember too that ABC was sold to Disney in 1996.  As for ABC primetime mess era, it started with the Top 10 fallout of Roseanne and ended with the breakout success of Who Wants to be a Millionaire. Monday Night Football and Home Improvement pretty much kept ABC alive in that era.
    • This show is miles better under the new writers. It's really a condemnation of Carlivati, because he had the characters and history to write good soap. Instead, he turned it into a joke and a farce. I've heard some people says DAYS is now "too talky." Miss me with that stupid analysis.
    • I always wondered if Jackie wasn't going to be recast after being persumed dead... if Marland was going to pair Evie and Justin as a couple reunited in grief over Jackie's death. The one consistent thing I noticed about Evie during those months she was still on the show was that she was kind of a second mother to Phillip after Jackie's 'death' and Elizabeth no longer on the canvas.   But then one of the three interim writer teams decided to pair up Helena with Justin.. which left Evie even less to do than she had at the start of 1983. You're right that Evie was a unique character on the soap.  She was sweet and trusting, yet she had a quiet strength that made it difficult to push her around (at least when the Dobson's were writing her).  The Ben/Amanda/Eve triangle was an interesting triangle because neither of the women were evil... and Ben did have chemistry and a connection with both women.   It had a pretty decent run from 1978/9 to 1982 before Amanda was spun off into her mother's new marriage to Mark as the other woman.
    • Lots of fast-forwarding in today's episode. The best parts were the Lulu and Tracy scenes and Chase in the tank top. And once again, a horrible cliffhanger with Sonny.
    • A very very brief excerpt from a CBS special is up. That's it. @jam6242 Thank you for the lovely Susan article. I adore that photo of her with Denise - such strong yet different personalities on display.  I remember seeing that photo of Denise, Bill and Susan on soap magazines like Afternoon TV. I wonder if they took it or if DAYS did.
    • I think Joss does know the material and maybe just plagiarized some of Emma's data?   Despite all her actions I do think the show pretends Joss is smart and this class is sort of in her new wheelhouse as a degree. Gio playing Carmen was super high pitched to me.  He's a talented musician but that was screechy lol. TBH, we all know I love Sonny to a fault, but I would rather stare at Rebecca Herbst's opening picture for an hour than listen to Sonny and Jason blather on about giving up the mob.  You can't even try to fake me out at this point.
