Wow now Greenlee's on Griffin propping duty. WAKE UP Greenlee he STOLE from the hospital you own. Oye vey

Jennifer on Days is being written like Kendall "He saved my life" I LOVE that Kate said "It's his job, he fixes hearts" *sigh* if only someone on AMC was allowed to say that about Griffin

I don't see the problem with this. Griffin didn't steal just to steal & be malicious, he stole to save the lives of people in Afghanistan or wherever. How can Greenlee be mad at him for his reasons? lol

Griffins going to be praised no matter what lol and I kinda think he rightfully deserves all of it. He really hasn't even done anything terrible. Anything he's done that's had a smudge of crime in it has all been for good reasons and has ended up helping someone (mainly Kendall).

He's built up as a hero for embezzling from the MC and for stealing from the hospital. Keep expecting a statue to be erected in his and Cara's honors. they are saint's after all. IF David had done this, he'd have been strung up from the nearest tree. This is even beyond Babe & Ryan level propping

Is there anyone on this show who doesn't prop him? Who next? AJ? Emma? Maya? Miranda? Gabrielle?

You don't get it. "Propping" is only bad when you don't like the character. When you like the character, then propping doesn't exist. They can shoot a person point blank in the head in front of a police chief, harvest their organs and get away with it and be viewed as romantic.

^Love you, R!

I thought today's show was good, just had to watch on delay!

Very interested in the Ben backstory... why is he the reason for what Jane is doing?

Loved Jane's intervention with Bianca/Kendall. Also, LOL at the Greenlee/Jane scenes.

JR/Marissa - as nice as they seem, I really hope Marissa goes with Bianca. I can't believe JR bought her the same damn gift that Bianca did - UGH.

Poor Madison - those Fusion scenes killed me. I wish she'd let Scott in, but I understand why she can't right now.

Oh, and Ryan was so tolerable today --- the most tolerable he has been in a LONG time.

Ohhh (just saw the last scene)... I'm guessing Ben was responsible for Jane's daughter's death, whether innocently or not. He either feels completely guilty for the death, or he is doing this to escape jail time/being blackmailed.

Sad, sad ending.

What if Maya is actually Jane's daughter? Obviously not dead but gone and it's dude's "fault" because he got her pregnant and she was "killed" in an accident while trying to run away or something? But maybe she really ran away because she was pregnant by a different black guy, the one she has been talking on the phone with? Or maybe that really is Jane's henchman as someone suggested last week, and he is double stressed because he knows Jane's daughter is really alive?

Or maybe he is actually Jane's son? :wacko:

He didn't. Dumbass Bianca gave it to him and JR even told her she should give it to Marissa but she insisted.

Marissa had told JR about the song but he had no clue WTH she was talking about :lol:

Is it that boring? anyone for us at work?

JR and Marissa kiss, or I think that's what they did, it looked like their lips weren't touching and then Miranda and AJ broke them...bless their little hearts :wub:

The Madison drama is so pointless and SG is so not up to the task for these dramatic scenes.

Ohhh, I must have missed that. My bad. Still, very sad to see Bianca watch Marissa in the park opening the music box on her own...

LOVED the Kanervention!

Kinks is LOVE!

Jane should have taken over someone's life who didn't HAVE A fAMILY!

Not that there wouldn't have been opportunities! For instance, they could've hired George Takei (there's your ST person) as one of Chao-Li's relatives, who was also after the Nazi treasure. Or they could've hired Anthony Daniels and Kenny Baker (a.k.a. C3PO and R2D2) as another team out for the gold (and comic relief for the storyline). Heck, they could've even hired none other "Blofeld" himself, Donald Pleasance, as a sworn enemy of Gustav and his father's, who will stop at nothing, including romancing poor Emma, to keep Riebmann from reclaiming the treasure.

I agree. Especially because it happened so damn quickly, with absolutely no breathing room for him, for Cathy, for all of us.
David Jacobs insisted that was the plan all along, but I doubt it. I think they had every intention of keeping Joshua around for years to come, but Michael Filerman and his ego ruined everything.
I'd still love for someone who was there to explain to us what the original intention was for Empire Valley; was it ALWAYS meant to be revealed as an underground spy network? Because, even if that wasn't how it started, it still feels as if they were leading up to something big. Otherwise, why invest so much time in another real estate development scheme? We'd already been there and done that with Lotus Point.

I feel like Days was always going to run into this problem regardless of writing. Days has done a horrible job establishing the next generation of leads. It has relied on Marlena, John, Bo, Hope, Kayla, Steve, etc., etc. for far too long. We end up at this point where most of the characters that get significant airtime are boring.
It seems to me the writing team is just too afraid to entirely revamp the show and are doing the bare minimum and coasting along with mediocre material. Because at least it's not as bad and offensive as Ron, right? Let's not rock the boat too much.

OMG I agree! I can't put my finger on it but there's something morbid about it. Same thing for gambling.
Big agree.
Honestly it's been campy from the get-go. If one enjoys it, they should make peace with the fact it's pure camp.
Kat's hat was giving Lindsey McKeon's Marah (GL) vibes when SATC's stylist Patricia Field joined the show.

Madison is such an underdeveloped character - she can be a genius doctor and then a teenager - and the whole relationship with Chelsea is treated as an afterthought. This show has too many characters and too few (talented) writers.
Extra comments:
Greg Vaughn is a pro and a stud, however I don't see where the story is with him and Nicole. There's no stakes, no tension. Mark my words: they will tease a big secret with Kial in the next few months, that's all they can do story-wise.
Speaking of love stories: how grand can these love stories be if the most exciting thing these couples can do is bounce between cafes and book a hotel room? If I see that hotel room one more time, I'll scream. They have a huge problem with sets.
I have liked Vanessa so far but I don't understand what they want to do with her.
While WF was a bust, I'm enjoying the new writing and I'm loving the direction lately. They're experimenting a lot - and succeeding.
Loving Leslie & Marcel.
I literally have no idea what's next for Ashley and Derek. Not that I'm worried at all, but they've been written into a corner. They were isolated before, they're even more isolated now.
I don't see any chemistry between Shanice & Ted. In fact, I don't see any chemistry between Keith's Ted and ANYONE.

I didn't remember her still being in Salem as late as 1979. But I agree, I thought she was absolutely gorgeous.

If you can ever visit the Paley Center for TV in NYC, they have a number of 1976 Days eps available in the viewing library, including Amanda during her cancer story

Yeah.
Amanda got pregnant, and (I think) she wasn’t sure if Chris or Greg was the father. But the pregnancy turned out to be ectopic and she had to terminate it. And it sounds like, after that, she decided to just make a go of her marriage to Greg and left Salem with him.
Which was too bad because from what I’ve read, Greg sounds like a real douche 😂😂😂
I wish more of this time period was available to see

Excellent posts @cody_1990 !
There have been a lot of boring couples lately. And a little too much Dimera. I think that all the ingredients are there for a good show, but Paula/Jeanne just need to use them more effectively. And yeah, a few characters do need to be sent packing lol
I’m surprised that they haven’t actually gone over budget, with the amount of characters we’ve seen on screen lately lol
Not yet. This isn’t Ron Carlivati’s show anymore 😂😂😂😂
As for techniques, maybe playing a character as smug or arrogant was one of them.

Have we seen Theo's abs? Otherwise, I'm not sure what acting "technique" they're talking about here... drink less water if shirtless scenes?

What are you currently reading?

Ripley Under Ground unraveled in the last one third. Absolute mess. I enjoyed the first 200 pages, but then it absolutely went off the rails. I can't give it more 5/10 for this reason. Shame.
I will still try the third book in this series.
