Yes, that's the one. Thanks for posting that MTS. I didn't see the whole thing. So I guess its next week, but if that doesn't happen until next week, I don't get why CBS would show Nina saying that.

I can't believe it but I'm in love with two women now - EH and SH! I should call my mamma and give her the good news!

EH has always been great but the character had me waiting for a house to fall on her, but from her performances last week and now today she's one of my favs. When she told Billy it was over, "believe me" and threw the ring I clapped! This has been a long time coming and I hope the reason Phyllis didn't elect to have a nasty divorce is because the writers planned one for Chloe! Think when Jill took John's money, nasty divorce.

....

I really like how they contrast the Patty/Jack story with the Chloe/Billy story - showing that a woman in the same position can be driven crazy by a man but make totally different choices. Love the writing - it's almost poetic how they cross storylines.

MJ is SO my girl, though! What was she going to do to Summer!?? How apropos was Nelson's rave about SH on today? Victor didn't mention what JT said about getting caught snooping on the ranch so he's definitely playing her and has a maneuver up his sleeve.

So glad they addressed Jack's scars and Phyllis not knowing why they're there. So interesting to see former psycho Phyllis get played by current psycho MJ.

i'm very much on the fence about Clem's Mac. One moment I like her the next i'm like how did you get this part?

Nina: The Cane Slayer!!! She's gonna rat him out big time, and as much as I don't hate Cane like everyone else i love seeing Nina avenge Phillip - even if Phillip is the one who created him in the first place.

The Jack scars surprised me...mostly because I can't believe I never thought about them. OF COURSE they'd be there, and of course Phyllis would have seen them.

I like CF's Mac. She's different from anyone else on the canvas. For that, alone, I like the different flavor she brings.

"almost poetic"? Cashton, Cashton, Cashton! I totally agree. (I also think there are nice parallels between Chloe-Billy-Mac and Phyllis-Nick-Sharon...so it is interesting to see how these different triads make different choices...). But you'll get slain/flamed for referencing any kind of art in relationship to this show :).

Haiduk is remarkable. I totally feel for her. And I shouldn't. "I don't want to be your enemy," she quietly wishes.

    • 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 like to call her an FC-reject character

    • 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.
