Go Kinsey! I loved her sticking up to Kate. I love how she is sticking by Chloe. In an alternate world.I could see Kate getting involved with Will and being Kate's next enemy, following in the footsteps of Chloe, Sami and Nicole before her

I feel bad for Gus. I dont like how loyal he's been yet being disresepcted and tossed aside for Quinn

Carly is a dang ol hot mess. Get her help ASAP

Yay to the Gabi love! At least there's a few of us. LOL

I really liked it too. I've never seen DAYS do flashbacks like that before. With that flashback and the way the scenes end going to commercial (it's just fade-to-black now and none of that cut-to-black that Tomlin brought in), I'm starting to believe that starting with Monday's episode, these episodes were edited under the new EPs. I don't know how far behind the editing process is from the shooting/taping dates, so I'm just speculating. I definitely noticed the change though.

Sonny was definitely on for a good chunk of the show. He had scenes with Justin & Adrienne. He revealed to them that he plans to stay in Salem for the Summer, and also told them about his new job with the DA. Pretty good scenes. Glad to see him wearing a different type of shirt

Sorry, don't care about the DiMera/Kiriakis feud again. Yawn.

LOL @ the two Rafe's story having no after effects...I watch Rafe today and wonder WTH was the point of that 5 month story?? LOL!! What a waste of time & HD tape that abomination was.

He was on throughout the episode and had some great scenes with his parents

WTH was Maggie wearing? She looked better when she covered up that ugly purple top with her jacket

Booo to Nicole encouraging Taylor to marry EJ to save Brady. Like WTF?

They did some great casting when they cast Josh Taylor as Roman. He slurs his words just as bad as Caroline.

I finally caught up on a week's worth of episodes after work last night.

I will be honest...after seeing Crystal's incredible performances this last week, I will miss her. I really hope that come Emmy time next year, she submits these episodes. I'm sure her rehab episodes coming up will be even better. I do like the nightmares she experienced, especially with Lawrence when he said "Surely you don't think Daniel was the only reason you turned to pills?" (not verbatim, but along those lines). It was great to see her torment manifest itself, and her pain was very palpable. Kudos.

Quinn is growing on me. I never really saw his character much because I always fast forward through the garbage that is Chloe Lane...Aria of A Singing Hooker. He has a natural talent to him, and he's gorgeous to boot. His chemistry with Crystal was instantaneous. It's a shame that they won't explore that. The possibilities of Carly and Quinn getting together, and the aftermath when Vivian finds out would have been endless, and would be storyline gold, especially with three highly capable actors. *sigh*

Melanie and Dario... no thank you. Please fire her next please. I put the TV on mute everytime she speaks. i hate Melanie more than I hated Nighttime Hope, and that says a LOT.

Jennifer and Daniel...love the actors, but this storyline is so unbelievably stupid. Can't wait for Jack to come back.

Maggie and Victor are adorable, and they bring out the best in each other. I hope the new writers continue this coupling.

Sonny is great, but I wonder if they put vaseline on his teeth to keep him smiling 24/7. Surely his cheeks hurt.

As always, Ari is the best thing about the show right now. She could have chemistry with a jar of mayonnaise.

Am I the only one not missing Sami this week? It's kind of nice having her offscreen.

    • Leslie is an extreme liar and manipulator. I'm not sure what her point was in trying to convince Nicole she wasn't trying to hurt her. As much as Eva did help orchestrate the entire plot I feel like there was too much piling on. Eva never said she wanted to be a Dupree so Anita was extremely out of line for that comment.

       That's positive and something to look forward to for sure, because you're right, 1996 so far isn't nearly as good as 1995. Ohh - what is Lonatrat?  Sadly you're probably right. I did feel like David was rarely seen once Marcus came on. That would have been an interesting spin, having Frank and Tina be teenage lovers and Dahlia really being his daughter. I'm getting the sense that Tina won't be seen too much anymore, as she just left Dahlia with Frank/Eleni as she's heading to jail for a while. I like the Tina actress too!  Her voice sounds a bit like Rosie Perez to me, which I love. I tried to find her online, but coming up empty. This was the only thing I could find about Tina Crede - a character snapshot video with clips and stills of her (randomly starting just before the 1:00 mark):

      That's wild that the David actor is nearly 40 here! Definitely surprises me.
    • 5-6   Meh. It already looks like a scattershot week.    5-5 was actually a good episode. Damian and Lily. Phyllis finally going on the warpath that I knew she could get on with Billy and Sally. Nate started to question Audra and Victor's alliance. And I was not even bugged by Kyle and Claire.   But then there's Cole's off-screen story. Kyle and Claire going back to being whiny. And them even wanting Adam's penthouse just sounded like trying to keep the set around. And Diane shouldn't even give a flying frak about Billy's opinion. And Tessa, Daniel, and the guitars...yeeeah no.   But hey...JM looked good in that short. And those pants.  I agree. One of Y&R's good points with fans has always been that you do at least see the vets. And IN stories. 
    • One of the things that I found unnecessary and a bit disturbing about Ambitions was that in almost every episode someone was holding or shooting a gun.  Jamey and Ron seem to have the same fetish.
    • I had thought that there was a Tommy Biddles on there, but then I realized I was thinking of Dr. Biddles on Santa Barbara. Never mind!

    • I have watched the scene where Vanessa reads the letter and it's lovely, but I'm really glad now that I never got around to watching the funeral. Henry ADORED Nola! He treated her like a daughter and Stacy like a granddaughter. That's why Vanessa couldn't stand her. He was crazy about all the Reardons. He spent a lot of time at the boarding house. He and Bea--they never explicitly said it was romantic, but they certainly were loving friends. This sounds worse than Bert's funeral. I really did not think that was possible.
    • It always bothered me from the start that Nicole just took Mona's suggestion and never checked references.  A real psychiatrist would have done more before hiring someone. ** I like that Kat's reporter/investigative type instincts caused her to be suspicious of Eva from the start, and to try to spy on Eva and catch her as weeks went by. However, I think that Kat's so focused on what Eva did wrong -- that she won't see that Leslie is the master manipulator, making some things appear different than they actually are. I hope that Shanice's natural snoopy nature will get her to figure out what actually happened to Laura, and who really caused all the problems. *** edit to add: The show never specified what Mona's job was for Nicole.  Home manager?  Office manager?  Head personal assistant?  I'm sure there would have been a title?    Mona asserted today her upset with Eva and with Leslie.  That they used her and ruined her reputation.  I just wish I knew what Mona's job was. If Mona was an official manager, then it would have made sense for Nicole to trust the recommendation, if Nicole thought Mona had done a proper hiring procedure.  But if Mona is just an informal helper, then why wouldn't Nicole order a background check?
    • And I'm here for it.   Also...YES, PLEASE.
