LOL... I understand what you mean. I really did like his plays from back in the day and even his earlier movies but I don't know... around 2007/8 or so I just started getting tired of all his tropes in his movies. Woman needs a man to bring her back from the brink, there is always an incestuous rape/molestation in said woman's past.... it just all got so tired. I actually LOVED the first Why Did I Get Married? movie but the sequel was so strange and bizarre. Especially the final 15 minutes. I had totally give up his movies after the mess that was Madea Goes to Jail (I abhor Temptation based off the synopsis alone). What keeps me tuning in is that I wanted to see how he would handle a weekly drama series. I love Tika Sumpter and I am genuinely interested in where Wyatt and Jeffrey are headed :P It hasn't gotten to the typical TP fuckery yet but I just know something crazy/strange/cruel/bizarre is on the horizon. It's just how he operates.

I knew from the commmercials that Mama Hattie was going to work my nerves. Haven't tuned in once!

Celine is a trip, so insane. "He doesn't like black women", rofl, the hell he don't, she has no clue who Jim was with when she was going on her deranged rant.

Amanda really played a dangerous game listening to Candace, that professor is crazy.

David knows that Hanna and Candace are related, this should be interesting.

so, from the Professor, are we suppose to assume Candace has earned her grades on her back too?

I don't know was funnier, the jealous rant Celine went on, or Hanna being promoted against her will to rule over a bunch of unseen "staff".

The police planted 2 kilos of coke on Benny? Geez...overkill much, David?

I thought this eppy was comparatively better than average. But then they spent the last ten minutes focused on Amanda.

Candace: "What do you see?"

Amanda: "A loser"

RIGHT! Her teacher shocked me bc when he told her to come back after 7pm, I thought he was going to try and have sex with her. Anyone else think she looked like Melissa Archer after that makeover? All she needs is the red hair.

ETA: Whoops, look like I should have stuck with my first instinct. Cant believe he came back and raped her in her home. Im glad they didn't show it. The scene they did show though went on way too long and was pointless. It added nothing to the plot and all I saw was some out of shape man rambling on

How does Jim not know that his new maid is Candace's mother? He had her investigated so that should have turned up

I cant with Selene's change in attitude. What was the point of having she and Hannah as good friends in the first few episodes. This is so bizarre. She needs to be smacked upside the head. I do say I get where she is coming from in terms of the promotion

Good twist with David setting Candace up. Too bad she wasn't in the car instead of sweet Benny. Good twist but stupid one. Obviously, Candace would realize that Jim played her and considering he is a judge, all she'd have to do is blackmail him by threatening to expose all his secrets if he didn't. David should have left this alone

"Are you telling me that she is a he?" LMAO laugh.png. If we didn't already know she had a baby, wouldn't it be a crazy twist if this was how we learned Candace was born a man?

Dang what doesn't he do?

That out of shape man rambling disturbed me so much. That long ass taunting scene was so unnecessary so I can just imagine how scary it would've been to see a long drawn out rape scene. That said I knew from the moment she got her makeover she would be getting raped. Tyler fell back on that whole dress like a slut mentality.

I think that TP having Amanda raped was either pointless or too soon. TP should've built this story up slowly and executed it down the road, some time near the season finale. He should've slowly had the professor come onto to Amanda for awhile to no avail, threaten and stalk her for awhile, and then execute. Personally, I hate that TP made this choice so soon because I would've spent this season building Amanda up with Candice's help then do the rape story s2. So many ways this story could've been executed but I'll watch and see how it goes.

See as many aforementioned, this is why he needs a strong soap writer to be his Co-HW. Why not try and get Susan Dansby from ATWT & YR seeing as she lives in the Atlanta area and she's an African American writer too. IMO, she could be one of many soap writers/aspiring soap writers he could reach out too.

Have and Have Nots have potential to be great but he needs a stronger writing and production staff behind him.

Yes Cheap! TP does it all, which is why this show will never meet its true potential!

The rape was too soon and God help this person who plays Amanda. If each scene on this damn show was not 9 minutes long, the story leading up to the rape could have played out over several eppies and not 1/2 an hour!

Now, things seem to be getting interesting, but I don't think I care :(

TP disgusts me!

    • 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.
    • Yeah, I thought it would be more explosive or heated and it was kind of standard.  Both can do more with the material.  I just don't think the writing was there.
