New viewers would be amazed to learn how Jason once viewed Michael as his son and fought tirelessly for what seemed like an eternity to raise him. He barely even reacted to the big waking up. Not that I can blame him for not being thrilled about the little sociopath waking up, but still, Steve Burton didn't even try.

I really like this new Michael. He's a natural, and very effective in the role. I also like that he's not the traditional soap definition of beauty/masculinity. He's a very real looking young man. Another great find for Mark Teschner.

This is coming from someone who HATED that demon, Dylan Cash.

The guy who plays Ethan should be required to work on his diction. I found myself getting angry today listening to him as I was losing word after garbled word. I find that unforgivable really.

Yeah, I like nuMichael so far. I'll be able to judge him more once he leaves the hospital, but so far so good. I understand why he's furious with Carly for not being there when he woke up, for being she "gave up on him" and "replacing him with another child." While none of this is true, you can understand why he's so upset and so far this young actor is doing a good job.

Claudia..seriously.. how pathetic..

Olivia and Johnny, not bad at all. Good chemistry. We'll see where this goes tomorrow.

Question, why are Holly and Patrick so close? I know the connection with Robin, but how did they become friends?

Patrick and Holly flirted for a few minutes in the Markam Island story so now they are tight friends for plot purposes.

LOL! I find him incomprehensible. It adds to my dislike of the character.

Olivia needs to STFU. No one cares what she thinks.

First allow me to apologize if someone has brought this up before, but don't you find it strange that the young man who is cast to play Michael could actually pass for Jason Morgan's son? I know Carly slept with Tony/Jason/A.J. around the same time, but I don't remember if paternity was establish that A.J. was definitely his bio dad. Michael now has the same coloring, and eye color as Jason. TPTB could definitely revisit the baby daddy issue. JMO. B)

Carly did not sleep with Jason around the time of Michael's conception. The last time she'd slept with him was quite a few months before that.

I'm so happy that Michael is waking up and already trashing his pregnant mother and glomming onto Sonny, and we get a revival of the Quartermaines want to take Michael, they're evil!! for good measure. They have already destroyed this family, can't they give them a break?

The only high point is getting to see Johnny's beefy bod, with some chest fur as a bonus.

I don't care for Carly but seriously she stepped out for like thirty minutes and Micheal woke up, it's not like she just left him over at Shadybrooke or something for five years. She went home for a minute and Micheal is being unreasonable. She also had to be pried and bullied to leave him in the first place. Sonny is ordering Micheal to not feel things. :rolleyes:

Someone throw some holy water on me, I'm about to defend something written by Bob Guza!

I do think Michael being upset is realistic. For everyone, it's been a year, for Michael, it's been 5 minutes, and he knows something serious has happened and it was touch-and-go and the first face he sees when he wakes up is godforsaken Lulu?! Neither of his parents were at his side. I think it's realistic that he felt forgotten. HOWEVER, what I don't get is why he's cool with Sonny, because Sonny was also not there when he woke up. Unless it's Carly's pregnancy that has Michael's hospital gown in a twist. But that's not fair because Sonny can't get pregnant. LOL, I just realized Michael SHOULD feel like both his parents were trying to replace him when he learns Claudia's pregnant too!

Anyway... um... this show sucks.

Nice seeing Emma Samms, though. Wish she didn't have these ridiculous scenes to play out where nothing happens.

WORD UP.

He's definitely an F-D-F, but I would spend the better part of a weekend all OVER him.

    • "And OMG, watching the scenes of Roger's return in comparison...the quality in the writing really nosedived. The stupid mask." Very much agreed.  Having Roger hide behind a mask for weeks/months, with it culminating with him swinging in on a vine at Blake/Phillip's wedding....geez.  So juvenile. IMO, Guiding Light never did a good job reintroducing major characters, either from the dead or elsewhere.  Masked balls = awful.  Amish = awful. When Reva was brought back from the dead, she should've just showed up in Springfield as Reva, and informed everyone that she had been gone for years because she felt like it.  She had a four-year fling with some dude who ended up dumping her due to disloyalty. Josh would be pissed and declare that their love is not *always* but *sometimes* and he'd act accordingly.  Her kids would hate her.   
    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
