I have to hand it to Chip Hayes. I do tend to enjoy his dialogue between Adam and Erica -- not to mention his one liners. Didn't enjoy the Rebecca Taylor-esque scenes between that horrible Zendall, though.

Kendall: I killed Stuart!

Zach: Stop saying that! You didn't!

Kendall: Zach, I know I did! There's no other choice!

Zach: Stop saying that! You didn't!

Kendall: I know I did. There's no other explanation!

Zach: You didn't kill Stuart! You gotta quit saying that!

Kendall: But that's the only logical explanation! I killed Stuart!

Zach: NO! You didn't!

But I do have to say I literally laughed out loud when Erica was rattling on and on about Emma's elaborate plot to carry out Annie's brainwashed idea that Annie didn't shoot Stuart with intricate psychological detail, and Adam looks at her and says: "Children don't really think that way, do they?"

I WAS DEAD! :lol: I was thinking the exact same thing listening to Erica draw out this elaborate train of thought... for a SEVEN YEAR OLD!

Jake, take a bus ride to hell! Don't forget to pick up Zendall at the corner of Sit and Spin.

Ugh! Jesse. Does he wear the same outfit ALL the time?

My problem is why we're expected to feel any kind of sympathy or rooting value for Kendall -- when that disgusting Zendall spent days orchestrating their Murder Pact. Then, the minute Ian flat lined, they didn't even grieve! They just took off to commit murder. Then, at the last minute, she supposedly couldn't go through with it (after practically salivating about it for days), and now we're supposed to be cheering for Kendall to be exonerated? I'm sorry, but these two are disgusting. Who does that, counting down the seconds when until their son dies so they can kill someone?

ETA: Jesse is also disgusting. I guess that's what you get for hiring a man who's been "dead" for 20 years to be Police Chief a month after he's resurrected. Again -- why is Jesse involved in this case? He's the CHIEF OF POLICE!!! Not a homicide detective!

R --- WORD!

The only person I'm rooting for in this storyline is Annie.

Even in the other storylines...Jesse has taken over the role of Zach almost, and Randi isn't even worth caring about.

I am liking Tad/Taylor though, but that is really low key right now.

On a positive note... I just read next week's previews and we'll be getting more MARIAN and her revenge! :) :) :)

Ugh. Plus TK just yells, smugs or zombies his way through scenes.

R speaks true. I am a Kane Woman fan and can still be a Kendall fan, but just don't have any sympathy for this situation of Zendall's creation. They planned on murdering for revenge when one son was literally flatlining and another at home. Let's teach our children how to handle life's adversities by---Killing. Touching, isn't it? Zach even said himself in the last day or so, he and Kendall made a "good choice" in setting out to murder Adam. Bleh.

As for the relations between men and women:

Zach says stay and sit to Kendall day after day. *woof*

Jake says stay and sit to Amanda day after day. *woof*

Liza the Hotshot attorney cannot handle her crying newborn child so is desperately looking for help in soothing the child from Jake. She then hands the child over to David to rock, the supposed world's most determined stealer of babies? Gag.

Taylor the hard-edged soldier, now is a baby-sitter in a kidnapping scheme for her boyfriend.

I admit I haven't really given Tad and Taylor a chance because I am FFing their scenes.

Marian coming back and doing what she is spoiled to do? At least she's truly pissed about Stuart's murder and the lack of justice instead of worrying about Kendall's well-being and freedom above all else.

Jesse being Zach's puppet? I hate it! Inept soap police are a staple, I know. I just don't want a bought-and-paid-by-the-mob-police, especially an important character like Jesse.

He definitely knows. I think Reese told Ryan ages ago, and he still didn't care. He blamed Reese and Zach for Greenlee's death, because -- according to his ignorant logic -- if they hadn't kissed, Kendall nor Greenlee would've been on the road that night.

You know... nevermind the fact that Ryan went to Greenlee and canceled their wedding and LIED saying Reese and Zach were sleeping together.

    • 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.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
    • @janea4old Your detailed explanation and delving into the psychology and motivations is no doubt the opposite of what we will see onscreeen. As @ranger1rg stated we will get a few scenes and some sketchy explanations. Like the adoption of Aria, most of it will take place off screen.
    • I'm suddenly fearful that DAYS is going to pull a Flowers-for-Algernon stunt and Bo's progress will be reversed.  While @te. is stuck on Abe's tiny bedroom, I can't stop thinking of the size of Bo's huge hospital room.
    • Okay, why are Paulina and Abe sleeping like that?!  I'd take a screen grab if I wasn't lazy, but come on.
