I agree Toups it should be done at a big office meeting at Titan or Victor trying to get in the company and his access code not working or something, but I think it should have been done at the office with more depth and build up to it.

Given the budget situation, no way would that happen. I think it was pretty dramatic but it was going to have little impact anyway since Titan hasn't been a factor in stories in years. Even without the set issue, Titan is hardly ever mentioned so it has little significance to the audience unless they've been watching for a long time. That IMO hurt it more than the scenes as they were executed.

I don't think a "Patch" reference was needed. Steve and Kayla never really interacted with Sami and I wouldn't expect her to mention him when your lucky if she's mentioned them a total of 10 times in her entire 17 year tenure on the show. If it were Bo in Steve's position, I could see it.

The Bo and Carly scenes were not your traditional breakup scene. I think it was left open-ended on purpose to keep the show's options open. Bo clearly wasn't breaking up with her but Carly has been seeing the writing on the wall and you could tell she was given him the okay in that scene to go back to Hope. She gets it and has accepted it but he is still torn it seems.

The little kid playing Johnny has saved those hospital scenes and this "Sami's Child in Peril" SL. He is a little star! Plus James Scott and Ali Sweeney have stepped it up, from scratching each other's eyes out to putting on a positive spin on things for Johnny's sake.

Not feeling Brady & Nicole anymore. And I love Nicole and like Brady. Why is this not working anymore?

Ciara and Johnny are cousins once removed, huh? There goes my future pairing idea for them.

Sweeney and Scott always step it up when they have something half way exciting to play.

And yeah, i always forget Ciara and Johnny are related cuz the show isolates Sami from her family.

Good show but Vivian's revenge seems a little timid. What does Kate care if Vivian owns Titan? What is this to Nicole? And after all these years Victor has to have a fortune separate from Titan. Brady is John Black's son and they had their own money. Even if they lose Titan they still have their lives and freedom, so what is stopping them from telling her to keep Titan?

I wish daytime was a lot to be a little more ghoulish because the whole body harvesting and killing prisoners is macabre and could have been atmospheric in a Boris Karloff or Vincent Price kind of way.

The boy who plays Johnny is very cute and a real find.

That's true! Sami is isolated from her family, though I have overdosed on the Bradys in recent years and am glad they have taken a back seat to the DiMeras and Kiriakises. Would like to see more Hortons, too.

Bo is such a tentpole character for the Bradys... I really love his interactions with everybody. Sami should be interacting with her uncle, bitching Caroline out for the paternity switch and giving Stephanie pointers on how NOT to discuss the paternity switch in public places.

Wait a minute! How related are they really? Bo is technically a Kiriakis, not a Brady, so... Johnny and Ciara have no blood-ties whatsoever.

BTW, this is not a call for Days to SORAS the characters right now. I just love the little girl who plays Ciara, too. I especially love it when Grandpas Victor/Stefano sit Ciara/Johnny on their knee and give them tips on manipulating the world.

Speaking of Grandpas, I wish Stefano was at the hospital with EJ. And Kate.

God, I love Vivian. And I love how she owns Titan now. Maybe Kate will go back to editing Basic Black! OK, maybe not, but I still love this. A pleasing payoff to the sarcophagii shenanigans.

Really? You are issuing a how are they related, by blood, challenge for characters on days?

I would take this one if i wasnt so involved in this damn Felicity commentary. Ill have to get back to you. Tho, perhaps you are right, because Bo is almost as forgotten as a Kiriakis as Sami is a Brady...

Sigh, no. No challenge. Just thinking out loud. And it's a moot point because I much prefer Ciara and Johnny as kids, being naughty and cute and diva. Miss Ciara is so totally diva, and Johnny is equally divo with the tantrums!

Ciara is a spoiled brat who needs to go to boarding school, but i agree about Johnny. He is a divo to the max. The creation of his parents, for sure. You know Ali just looks at him and is "clam down, kid, calm down!" lol.

And yes, Ciara and Johnny share blood ties via Caroline as she is Bo's mother and Samis grandmother.

It's not the money, it's the principle of the thing. Besides Vivi owning Titan is just the catalyst for other stories, it's not the story itself. It will be interesting to see Maggie's take on the thing.

About Johnny, I was thinking about Uncle Steve immediately too but Johnny is just a little tyke and I doubt he would even remember who his Uncle Steve was. That may come up later as he starts living with this eye patch, though.

I would be fine with never seeing steve again. ever.

Wait a minute! How related are they really? Bo is technically a Kiriakis, not a Brady, so... Johnny and Ciara have no blood-ties whatsoever.

Let's remember Caroline is still Bo's mother. Johnny & Ciara are very much so cousins.

Technically, Bo didn't say the words "break up" but I think Carly realizes that he's most likely going back to Hope. Although, I wouldn't be surprised if this triangle continues on. Just as it looks like Bope are reuniting, I could see Carly ending up pregnant or something else happening to shift the momentum back that way. DH and the writing team have been all about triangles and quads so I wouldn't be so quick to think that Bope are instantly reuniting.

I don't want Bo/Hope reunited right away because I want MORE out of this triangle. But maybe I shouldn't hope for more because I don't have faith in Higley/Whitesell to write a good triangle. They don't know how to do 'longing' very well (ie. Melanie/Nathan).

If you wanted true camp, Vivian style, you should have had her lure everyone to the Titan board room. Upon entering, everyone finds a casket in the middle of the room, leaving everyone to to wonder who's funeral they've been invited to. Vivian surprises everyone by popping out of the casket, dressed in black of course, and revealing that she's taken over Titan, and thus ripping everyone a new one.

Dude, that is an awesome idea! Love it!

I love today's episode! The Kirakis clan was awesome today! Melanie confronting Vivian was awesome, Vivian blackmailing Nicole (AMAZING! I thought it was EJ's spy). Bo & Hope on the run is going to be great story. I was in SB heaven in the infirmary: Gina, Robin, and Melissa! Idk if Melissa work with either of them when she was on the show but it was nice.
