The scene at the church was graphic as hell but I loved it. Sasha stabbing that guy repeatedly had my in stitches. I loved it because the time for being nice is over. Old Rick [pre-prison] might have let Gareth go only to be sorry for it later.

Would not be surprised if Cryreese (I love that) only pierced Bob's ear. He cannot be counted on for anything and I can't stand him.

Beth eppy next week? Not sure I care.

In spite of everything, Bob had what is probably the best kind of death anyone could hope for. He was made comfortable and treated like family. He got to make peace and say goodbye to the people he loved and who loved him. Then after he was gone, they treated his body with respect and with as much kindness and humanity as one could.

I haven't been all that interested in Maggie but I loved that she got the title line. Father Urkel looking around saying "This is God's house" called for a really good response and hers was perfect.

Again, NOTHING about going to DC makes sense. The show has given me no reason to see Eugene as anyone or anything worth all this effort. Certainly not worth splitting up the group for. Didn't we just come back from a fractured canvas?

Tyrese is lucky Carol wasn't there when Gareth mentioned that Martin was still alive. I would've loved to see her face. You had ONE JOB, Tyrese!

A con this weekend, with (using character names for brevity) - Carl, Meghan Chambler, Sophia, Penny, Carol, Axel, Andrea, Oscar. Possible spoilers. There's also a lot of flash photography going on.

Live with Kelly and Michael had a zombie-themed Halloween special, complete with an attack from zombie Gelman (I have a feeling he'd rather be chomping on Kathie Lee), and cameos from two TWD stars.

Norman Reedus is interviewed about the show and various other projects. Flash photography and low-talking alert.

Lauren Cohan and a loud annoying man go through the TWD maze.

Sonequa Martin-Green talks about Sasha and Tyreese.

Between Sonqeua being pregnant, and some of her wording here, I'm so worried Sasha is going to be killed off :( Ugh. I don't want her to go.

In this interview she's asked about people searching for her feet. I think marceline mentioned this happening to so many actresses.

I thought this was a good episode. Much better than I'd expected. And it wasn't just a Bethy Sue episode - it was about her, yes, but also full of psychological horror and exploration, and interesting characters. It was also very well-paced.

The casting for all the supporting roles was terrific, especially the "good" doctor whose mask slips at the end. Yet in some ways I still felt for many of these people - the doctor, and sometimes, just a little, for control freak slap-happy Dawn. I also have to praise the woman who played Joan (?), the woman whose arm got sawed off.

This episode did a better job of writing for Emily Kinney's range than "Still" did. She wasn't a victim but she also wasn't Superwoman. Kinney had good chemistry with everyone in this.

There were some really frightening scenes in this too, like the jump scares in the trash pit when the walkers kept attacking them.

I liked the bit where Beth used walker Joan to kill the rapist guard with the putty face. Not only did it unscore that humans are the true threat, it was very smart. And Joan looked so, so happy to tear that !@#$%^&*]'s throat out.

I liked Noah a lot. I'm disappointed at already seeing fan hate for him for leaving Beth behind, as if he had any choice in the matter.

The Beth - centric episode was a lot better than I thought it'd be. Emily Kinney has grown on me. That ending though... Carol better be okay.

Just speculating, but I suspect that the person with Daryl at the end of last week's episode was Noah, who will lead the group to the hospital to get Beth and Carol out.

Not as bad as I feared it would be, but still a Beth centric eppy? GMAFB!

I would love a stronger actress in the role and for Beth to return to the group and shade that shady sister of hers. Maggie would be pissed because she would have to pretend to care about Beth and take some of her attention off of Glenn. Bitch!

    • Put me in the minority in being happy about Cat not being Abby. After the two adult recasts played tag with the role, it's time for a few years of rest. I have a huge list of things I hate about RC's writing, but that choice was not one of them. 
    • Except she never worked there at all and barely even knew where the Chancellor Industries plant was located  In 1980, Kay attempted to install Derek Thurston (her third husband) in a position at Chancellor Industries.  The show introduced a character named George Packard who'd supposedly been running Chancellor since Phillip's demise in 1975.  (George Packard's storyline in 1980 was attempting to keep Derek Thurston from bankrupting the company.)   We didn't hear much of anything about Chancellor Industries for the next twenty-five years.  Then, at that point, we met Eliot Hampton (?) who'd been running the company for decades and had been embezzling from it.  Jill took it upon her herself to oust Eliot Hampton (?) and take control of the company.  That's when Kay became actively involved in the management of the company.  From 1974 till 2004 Kay Chancellor was strictly a hands-off owner.  It was downright absurd that the last ten years of life, she was written as this formidable businesswoman who'd always been involved in Chancellor Industries.  
    • Well, it's going to be something when he finds out the truth.  Agreed.  On that note, I can't until it all comes out. I find Lulu to be ridiculous. 
    • I almost posted this because that was my initial reaction too:  this is weird/cringe, to sing around a piano after such a huge family shattering bomb was dropped.  But I got over that and just enjoyed her voice, the song and the montage we saw as everyone's emotions in the aftermath were pouring out.
    • The Equalizer original series was not a big hit yet it became a movie franchise and got a reboot series. The Equalizer reboot lasted 5 seasons, so one season longer than the original series.

      His social media/IMDb doesn't have his age but from some posts he's made, I'm guessing 1989 is his birth year.
    • Here's the timeline, as I recall it being published. The WGA strike was 5/2–9/27/2023 Annalynne McCord was announced as being hired in December 2023, for a one-year contract https://deadline.com/2024/06/days-of-our-lives-when-to-expect-annalynne-mccord-peacock-1235975806/ RonC's first scripts back from the strike began airing May 31, 2024 (around Konstantine & Maggie's wedding) https://www.tvinsider.com/1137709/days-of-our-lives-writers-return-15000th-episode-storylines/ Her first air date was June 19th 2024. The actress has said she was not told who she would be playing until she started taping. RonC 's replacements were announced July 2024, with his scripts airing through April 2025 Side note: DAYS social media team seems to be playing fast and loose with BTS videos, in terms of how far in advance they film content (e.g. their April Fools' Joke videos were clearly not filmed on 4/1/25), so we shouldn't assume anyone's current status, versus those who were there nine months ago.
    • April and her husband (Draper) are the "young leads" who tie all the storyline threads together.  They're normally in the center of the action.  In this particular storyline, Draper is the attorney who represents Paige Madison.  (The district attorney, Logan Swift, has given Paige Madison "temporary immunity from prosecution" if she will lead the police to the members of the Tobias Gang who stole the firearms.  But Paige mainly just ducks bullets from various gang members who pop-up to assassinate her.)    
    • It's one thing to post about a soap's rumors or gossip, which in point of fact we've all done. It's another to present yourself as the inside source who knows something to be fact that's about to break wide, then backtrack and call it just Twitter speculation. Between those two extreme poles you have to commit to one or the other. If I got something wrong, I'd say it. (Nor would I keep playing insider after what I pulled with Drake Hogestyn, which should've gotten someone permanently banned.) And regardless, you don't open with this 'news' you don't actually want to stand by yet by mocking DRW's extremely valid concerns re: how the Trina character and Tabyana Ali has been marginalized and put out to virtual pasture ever since the day NAC left. Her playing out her current contract in a C-storyline with Kai does not change that.
