Can't stand these two together or separate.

Rofl..on this story line with Chilly. Billy is so scared of settling down and sexing up his brothers wife (soapy), I enjoy this story-line. It's been done a hundred of times but these two actors just bring it.

I'm glad to see that the hostage situation is coming to an end.

I love the kidnapping storyline and personally wouldn't care if it lasted for a few more weeks.

Regarding the debate over Michael and Lauren, it annoys me, as I've always said, that Lauren is only used as a prop to Michael's family, mostly Gloria or even more Eden these days. We don't see the real Lauren over there, just some woman that has to handle all these people that keep interrupting her life and she keeps pushing away her true feelings just to make everyone happy. I'd like to see her finally burst after all this crap and change something.

So first Lily was feeling weird over raising Delia, and now suddenly she wants to be one happy family with Cane and Delia? That sickens me.

She had hysterectomy, yes.

ITA with every single point.

I would love the focus to be on Lauren for awhile.

I love all these ideas, and I think Tracey would be fierce in an ovarian cancer scare storyline, and it would throw Michael's world in an upheaval also since he relies on her so much. Michael would have to reprioritize, and I would just salivate at the idea of the acting of CLB and TEB in some heartwrenching scenes (of course, they would need the writing). Actually, I think it would dramatically affect the whole family because Lauren is their anchor and what happens to the family dynamic when she is in danger? I would be worried that they might write Tracey off with this type of story, but it would be a great character based story.

Michael and Lauren are truly in a mature relationship and so are perfectly positioned to play some serious and heavy relationship drama that is beyond the typical adultery and game playing. I don't see them going in an affair direction with them either.

Jeanne Copper had an interesting quote a month or so ago. She saw Katherine's relationship with Murphy as the sort of relationship Michael and Lauren would have if they grew old together. She desecribed it as a soft love that brings one peace. I know the major focus in daytime is in the conflict, affairs and rivalries, but I do like that Michael and Lauren bring a different type of relationship to the show. They will never be the main focus again, but I just think they could get more than they are getting now.

LOL. You see I am starved for Lauren and Michael discussion, so I was sucked in again. I have throroughly enjoyed some Likey talk, but since this is the episode threads I am sure most want to disuss the goings on of Genoa City this week.

Yeah, I can't debate that. LOL! You're right - the beginning of last year was terrible for Michael fans.

I would like nothing better than to see Lauren in a story. I love Michael, but just once, I wouldn't mind Michael taking a back seat to Lauren in the story. It's what SHOULD have happened with Pheila (Pheila shouldn't have happened AT ALL, but if it had to, it should have been about LAUREN)

Agreed there. I would love a hot Michael/Lauren sex scene. Won't hear any argument from me! LOL!

I don't think the Katherine's storyline is going to be resolved instantly once this kidnapping crap is over. These minor characters have been in the same redundant scenes for too many days now. Lets move on folks and back to the Saga of Katherine trying to prove she's Kathernie. Both Jill and Nikki can be rather stubborn bitches when it comes to admitting that they are wrong. If it was going to be next week or even next month, why have Nikki

Honestly, the fact that TEB is on recurring and has as much as she has and has gotten what she has gotten, as a fan i am very grateful for that.

I would love them to have a huge front burner storyline. However, i really dont mind what they have. Michael gets a lot, he does. The biggest problem for Lauren is that she has been reduced to nothing more than a prop for the Baldwin family. The best thing for her would be if they brought Joanna and Scotty back to the show. Throw Lauren into a buisness storyline, have her tempted by a hottie who wants her like JT or Billy or even Adam. However Lauren is a supporting char, played by a recurring actress. Not someone who they tend to build storys around.

Or better yet start to buildup that deep friendship between Lauren & Paul again, ahve Michael start to get jealous and worry about it. Have Lauren furious that he could doubt her after all the [!@#$%^&*] hes pulled and she stood by him. Some good conflict there between them.

Ehh, idk. I get all your points and agree with them to an extent. But at the same time i do like knowing that Lauren & Michael are the token happy couple.

I can't root for Cane and Lily due to their ridiculous obsession with raising Cordelia, a child that neither of them have any legal claim to. Really, the plot point that Cane's name is on the birth certificate is ludicrous because in signing that birth certificate after KNOWING that he wasn't the father, Cane committed fraud, which is a crime.

Lily's willingness to raise Cordelia is quite sick, the child has two parents, two grandmothers and one great grandmother (not that they know about Kay mind you) who are all more than 'fit' under the eyes of the law to raise the child...Lily is one sick puppy...her holier than thou attitude towards Chloe and Billy, neither of whom have committed crimes (morally wrong behavior, absolutely, but no crimes and yes Chloe duping Cane isn't a crime, but it is grounds for an annulment) is pathetic.

Cane is just a total psycho. Suing for sole custody?! Totally bizarre. He's not heroic, he's psychopathic!

Loving the Kay/Esther kidnapping storyline, that one could go on forever I love it so...but it looks like it'll be wrapping up shortly.

At Noah's surprise party I think we saw the ice melt a little bit between Victor and Nikki. The Countdown to Ashley's Meltdown is on! Tick tock, tick tock...

Sharon Case is fantastic...Sharon should have been a psychological mess years ago! I love this Sharon, where has she been all my life?!

And unfortunately for Ashley, she can't "melt" against Billy like Sharon's been doing to take the edge off.

I feel sorry for her. I am really hoping TPTB don't go down the CrazyAshley route. I'd rather see Ash get it together and get even.

LOL, with her bright red hair and Mrs. Crabapple voice, Annie literally looks like a cartoon come to life.

      DAYS: June 2025 Discussion Thread

      By AbcNbc247 · Posted

      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 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!

      DAYS: June 2025 Discussion Thread

      By Contessa Donatella · Posted

      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.
