DAYS OF OUR LIVES

DECEMBER 2009

That archive picture, I'm guessing, was taken in 92 or 93? Just about when Days started soaring into the stratosphere. Damn. Missy Reeves looked so young! But how spooky are Suzanne Rogers, Deidre Hall and John Aniston? They have barely changed since.

OMG, Fay on yesterday's episode! I always liked Nicole and Brandon's (and Taylor's -- snore) mom.

Nicole looks like Farah Fath in that wig.

Psyched for the Carly-Hope confrontation today. Less excited for Bo-Roman ("What da HEY-elle you doin', lil brudder?" etc).

It's from 1993. Tom Horton was in the hospital and John and Kristen were on their search for Belle.

The Nicole/Fay stuff was great... I have always liked Nicole, but Ari is just totally bringing it.

Sami/EJ were sweet; I loved that she refused to take the photo album and is worried because he's lonely. I smell trouble down the way.

Are they going for a Will/Gabi thing? I'm not sure how I feel about that!

And, God, I have the biggest crush on Eric Martsolf... it was quite unexpected, really....

Ooooops, this prob belonged to the other thread

It's those pecs, and the eyes, and the intensity.

I just wish he were in a little better story...

Loved Vivian's reaction to seeing Philip again and how she kept calling him her "son" in front of Kate, and Victor smirking in the background.

Good episode today. Slow, but watchable. I didn't expect them to mention Nicole's sister Taylor, as I all but forgot about her. Then Vivian falling all over Phillip, with Kate rolling her eyes...talk about like old times. I wish these Kate/Vivian scenes could be longer. These nods to history put a smile on my face, although I wish Vivian wasn't so hyped up--I mean is it all really that exciting Viv?

Highlight: EJ in his tight work clothes

LS needs to tone it down 28 notches. Her OTT Camp style isnt working on this DAYS, IMHO.

I agree, she's starting to annoy me.

Vivian can be as OTT campy as she wants as far as I'm concerned (not that I have found her particularly OTT or campy as of yet). I'm just as excited to have her back in Salem as Vivian is acting like she is to be back in Salem, so I don't have any problem with it.

I love LS and it's great to see her on the show again, but totally agree that she needs to tone it down -- maybe not 28 notches -- but just a little bit.

Vivian has always been an OTT character. To me she's not doing anything different than her first run on the show. I disagree about her campiness not working on Days. This show needs some humor and LS is the perfect choice to bring it.

Yes, it's all those wonderful things...

....but I was also kinda shocked that he is actually good in the part... I have being really enjoying his performances. Maybe I'm crazy.

I'm enjoying this version of Vivian. The writing for her has been impeccable. I loved the Kate, Vivian, Victor and Phillip scenes. And I liked Stefano's reaction to Vivian being back in town. Please let this quad get lets of airtime.

Also, I'm finally starting to enjoy Ari. I look forward to her and EJ sharing more scenes..
