Miller is totally the problem.

He's totally overused.

There was no reason for him to be with Sharon, Lily OR Amber & the less said about the Chloe propping the better.

Clementine isn't the second coming of AshBash but she's not Kimsey bad. Yet.

Why aren't Victoria and JT at the wedding? Nick and Phyllis aren't there either. Do they hate Katherine, or something, because there is no mention of sick kids.

Billy and Mac are like Tyra and Neil, these writers think if they tell us enough times that they have great passion and chemistry, we'll believe what we hear over what we see on screen? Talk about dipshits.

And Billy and Sharon were awesome together, not unnecessary, I hope she's having his baby.

Yeah and Ford isn't it. I said when the role was cast though that Mac isn't necessary and I still feel that way. There was no reason to bring her back this soon.

I too think Miller is being vastly overused. They need to scale it back a little.

As far as Chloe is concerned, I don't know. I really like her and I really like EH, but a little part of me feels like she needs to lose Billy to Mac or someone so that she can somewhat "pay" for the entire Delia saga.

I agree, it's too much, too soon with two new actors in the role, they need to just let it go. If Mac must stay let her re-establish friendships and so forth before throwing her into a relationship.

A gospel-church-resounding Amen to that Dee. If you're young and on a soap it's all about you're love life. Mac has such an interesting back-story/history that could contain a year's worth of story that would have nothing to do with her love life. I'd love to see and find out how Darfour has really changed her. I'd like to see how she's made peace or NOT made peace with her mother and her family (we got Brock - use him!). I'd like to know her views on something other than deflecting people's "are you here because of Billy" remarks. So she's the heiress to a vast fortune and wants none of it - that's improbable, but fascinating to see IF we get something to inform us of her rationale. In short - I'd like to know who Mac is now before we shove her into Billy's bed.

And why couldn't they have given Mac a makeover before she came to town? When I think of soap-makeovers I always think of Kevin Kline in Soapdish getting all dolled up after being a washed up dinner-theatre actor. Did someone all of a sudden say, after a few weeks, oh we really should make Mac beautiful and give her some concealer for those bags, an interesting hairstyle and perhaps some flattering clothes? Her first scene was a fantasy sequence in BILLY'S MIND and she looked nightmarish. The problem with Mac is that we haven't seen what makes her so great to begin with.

Awww...why?

Haha! Keep up BEA! Last week's thread though was so fun for me, hearing everyone opine their Who's MJ theory (I think everyone knows mine now!), Who's Got Gas(lighting) theories! LOL! And I learned a lot about the past s/l's that I never knew or even heard about (oh how I wish I could see that Vanessa Prentiss s/l!!!!)

Chloe and Amber mention this on Monday. It reminded me of why I love those two as possible BFF's. Although, having hated all the Mac's, I don't see the appeal of the character, she's never had anything personality wise to make up for her plain as dishwater looks. If Billy is going to worship over her, hopefully Chloe will find someone else to keep her warm at night.

      I really do wish someone could. Just a few characters in very simple backdrops, with very real problems that are just a little larger than life, like the '50s and '60s. All the characters having a level of dignity or respect. And their inner lives are what dominate the story, even if there are outside forces at play.

      It's a lesson to never be loyal because once your use is up, you're shown the door. MSW was the only bright spot for CBS for awhile, and once they were back on top... they promptly sabotaged the show as a repayment for all that the show had done for the network.

      The show made a mistake in not bringing in more McKinnon kids, specifically bringing back Ben. Kathleen was leaving, and while I like you am very fond of Sally Spencer as MJ, that didn't seem to be a common view. They also decimated the character in a truly sick storyline. So that just left Cheryl.

      Between Gwen and Cat, the show often seems to side with those who cause lots of cruelty to Jack and Jennifer. I am half-surprised that the show hasn't brought Peter Blake back for more of the same.  I don't really know if there is a purpose for them in Salem now, but I do feel a sense of stability and rightness when Melissa Reeves is back in the role of Jennifer and back in the Horton house, in spite of...well, a lot of offcamera stuff we all know perfectly well.

      I’m sensing you’re not really a John Black fan from your posts. This has been some of the best soap Days has done in many years but you seem completely opposed to it lol.

      The John Black character has been a part of my life for decades. I like heroes being honored, however imperfect they may be.  I'm glad they are giving him a long farewell and tribute.

      Annie Dutton was anything, but sane when she was introduced.  She was very tortured and looked like she was on the verge of tears when she was first introduced.   While people, and writers, made it seem as though Annie lost her mind because of Josh.. I truly think that Annie had a lot of untreated mental issues that didn't manifest until her marriage to Josh. Sonni was also anything, but strong when she was first introduced either.   Claire in 1983 was a complete 180 from the Claire that we got in 1986... and I do agree that her character was degraded.

      I remember seeing him briefly when Rick went to confront her about her blackmailing him. (I briefly forgot that Rick's sleeping with Claire at this time was a retcon - or her lying that she slept with him, whatever that story was). I wonder if he interacted with Kurt given that Mark Lewis later took his ATWT role. I tried to watch some of the full episode and it was all so alien and uninvolving. Roxy having a meltdown on that construction site for Mindy and Kurt's house that never gets built. Ed with Ross and Vanessa dealing with custody issues. Even Ross and Vanessa seemed flat, with Vanessa seeming oddly meek.

      She did. It was during a party at Amanda's. She didn't literally throw herself at him, but she was subtly coming on to him and he quickly shut her down. Yes, I remember she not only made a pass at Justin, she convinced Jackie that he was harassing her sexually. She also tried to convince Sara that he was pestering her. Everyone banged Josh back then, LOL. Whoa. I must have missed a good chunk of this first time around because I don't remember Reva going to India.  What I recall is Harley being a nanny to the kids and then Reva driving off the bridge. Then they kind of toyed with the idea of Josh and Harley getting together but I don't think that ever happened. Yes, that all happens but I don't recall the tumor. Maybe that's coming up soon with the videos being uploaded to Spauldingfield. The last one I watched, she was planning to vamp Kyle while taking care of the pregnant Maeve.
