Was that really Cassie's name that Sami mentioned today? I had to rewind 3 times to be sure. I really thought they rewrote the history of Cassie and Rex and that they never really happened?

I actually liked how nice Melanie was to Stephanie. I wonder if they will be friends soon seeing that

I'm really liking Melanie. I always have but I think they are starting to make her even more appealing.

As for Sami. Really??!! She can't be that surprised that EJ would have Phillip shot. That seem a bit crazy to me. She really never thinks, does she. I could also just be clouded by my dislike for her. ;)

This show really is great lately! :)

Yeah it was. They have been doing that a lot recently - nice touches to the dialogue like Faye sending Nicole pearls for her wedding and Chloee asking if she was still on the outs with her. Or Lexie explaining why Abe never came to the wedding.

Not a Melanie fan yet, but she is improving. The cynical days fan in me thinks the reason she has improved and been on a lot less lately is because the TPTB are sending her for acting lessons. She seems more natural now. Plus they are starting to flesh out her character, which is helping.

Agreed.

Agreed again. Best it has been since Brash & Cwikly in 2002 imho. How sad is that?

Wasn't Monday's episode great? It reminded me so much of Jim Reilly - all the stalling, interruptions, the candle flame going out, and then double cliffhanger with Philip getting shot and Sami interrupting the wedding (a back-to-back episode concluding almost the same way). It was very Reilly-ish. I loved it. LOL

I love every scene with these two. "This is just the beginning." :) I really hope they play the Stefano/Kate beat. They HAVE to play that. They gotta give a small Philip/Chloe scene too. If the writers do those two things, I will be very impressed.

Now that EJ/Nicole are married, I can already see what's ahead.....Nicole/Brady are gonna slowly get together since we've already been seeing a little of that. This is good stuff. See what happens when you actually get to plan things out? Just stay out of their way, Ken Corday, stay out! Do not rock the boat.

It certainly is a throwback to the way I remember DAYS under Reilly, and really...thats just *awesome*. It was somewhat obvious to me when Melanie was like "EJ...he's pure evil"...and all the references to signs and karma. I was like ok lol here we go. I notice that it does seem like they have a long-range plan for the show now, and the references to key history (Cassie, Faye...), so it really feels like they are trying to make a solid show. With that said, I have only noticed these changes in the last few days. Do you think Higley is really responsible for this?

    • I don't really care about what the men are wearing, or not wearing.   What I care about is focusing on the writing and character development for each of the male characters. Andre really doesn't have a lot of character development that sets him apart from the other male characters except that he seems content to be degraded and mistreated by the elitist Dani.  I would like to know why a good looking younger guy like Andre would willingly be at the mercy of an emotional vampire such as Dani.   Martin, on the other hand, seems to have decent character development.. and it is partly due to how the actor chooses to recite his lines.  Martin was raised in a very privileged household and probably went to the best schools... so it makes sense that he would come across as thinking he was above everyone else.  Most people raised in a upper class situation as the Duprees would view themselves as better than others (it's the same trait Dani seems to employ on those she feels superior to). It makes me wonder how Nicole came out of that family being so warm and nurturing  when her family dynamics seemed very appearance oriented.    
    • I know, right. I after just re-reading the thread, I'm like ooppph!
    • Lulu and Dante were divorced before her coma, but she was still in love with him.  He just didn't know.  They haven't been married for years.    I was pretty mixed about Lulu getting involved when it was just a child out there in the world, but now that she realizes it's Gio I am okay with her telling Dante.  It also is her son's sibling.  I still think it's BLQ's choice though.  Lulu is in a rough spot because I think Dante will be mad if she keeps it a secret and Chase, Brook, Lois, etc will be mad if Lulu tells. Without veering too far into the classic area of the show, I had no problem with Robin telling AJ about Michael.  It may not have *exactly* been her place, but she could see how Carly was manipulating the entire situation.  It also ruined her romantic relationship with Jason for good.  Jason and Sonny were furious with Robin and practically ran her out of town, so I think we were to believe she was the bad guy.  It was a bit out of character for Robin to spill, but KMc was leaving the show.
    • Rewatching/binging THE X-FILES Seasons 1 and 2 (almost done). So much fun re-experiencing, especially re-discovering some of the monster-of-the-week stories. THE WEST WING Seasons 1 and 2 as well - so good to rewatch now with 20 years more life experience and understanding. ALSO.... lol FOOTBALLERS' WIVES Season 3, which is just as bonkers as I remember and so so so so fun. I had forgotten about that iconic season cliffhanger. Good times. Excited to rewatch Seasons 4 and 5 since I remember so very little about them. Hope you've been enjoying!
    • @Toups Tyler Topits listed in alpha order with the breakdown writers 5/12 Monday episode. O'Connor still listed as both breakdown and script writer. Kreizman wrote today's script.
    • Marland was long gone by this point.  He quit in either August/September 1982. I think it was due to letting the actress play out her contract and use her for party scenes and/or scenes with Phillip/Justin.   I was surprised she was still on in June 1983 myself, because I figured she had been written out before Pam Long joined the writing staff. Thankfully, having episodes uploaded during this period on Spauldingfield YT site has helped to connect some of the dots.  It looks as though Pam Long starts the first week or so of May 1983.. and in those first few weeks: Morgan and Evie were both written off and Lillian/Mindy/Billy/Beth/Annabelle all come onto the show.
