March 13, 201411 yr Member LMAO! This had me ROTFLMAO What's with that Cersei Lannister hair? Is this someone's way of saying she's a huge stealth bitch?
March 13, 201411 yr Member My jaw dropped when Abby was told the baby was aborted. I thought it was real too. Spending half the episode on a dream sequence is so Reilly-esque. LOL From a few episodes back, I hate seeing John treating and talking to Marlena so badly. I grew up on John/Marlena in the 90's so scenes like that make me sad. Real John would never talk to Marlena like that. And real Bo would never leave his family like this. Bo and John are two of the biggest heroes in DAYS history and now they're just d-bags. Isn't Bo working on a case to protect his family? Something Bo would do.
March 13, 201411 yr Member Can Days please find something to do with Judi Evans? Im so tired of Adrienne just wanting to bust up Sonny & Will, then supporting them, then rinse and repeat. Ughh. She can do so much more. Edited March 13, 201411 yr by John
March 13, 201411 yr Member Isn't Bo working on a case to protect his family? Something Bo would do. No. All we know is that he's working on a case. Theres nothing to suggest that it has anything to do with his family. IA with Toups; Bo is a douchebag and this is OOC for him. He's basically abandoning his family for 2 years. I cant see him walking away from them for that long and now with no contact. There is no excuse the writers can come up with that can justify him doing this. I bet the way to redeem him will be to say he was kidnapped or something bc to have him of his own free will leave them to work on a case is pretty sh-tty if you ask me. If it was a few weeks fine, but not well over a year

Yes, there are so many Reilly-isms in show currently. I love it! I love that the current writers and producers of the show has recognized that DAYS has been defined by Reillyesque writing for a while now and has become part of the shows identity (good or bad). But the writers have managed to put a more grounded spin on their Reilly-isms and made it more character driven with a mix of plot, much like his mid 90s writing style and his early GL writing style. It works perfectly for me. However, John and Marlena's relationship is VERY unReilly-like. Jarlena used to be my favorite couple on this show but sadly, I now hate them together and it is mainly due to the writing for John and Drake Hogestyn's portrayal of him. Even with the writing, if Drake could play simultaneous conflicting emotions at the same time, it wouldn't be as bad. Drake plays John as so angry and bitter and hateful of Marlena which makes no sense given their history. Deidre plays Marlena as being confused, a bit taken aback and frustrated at John's treatment of her, but I still get the sense that Marlena loves John because its just impossible to hate him given their history. When Drake plays John as just angry, without a subtext of "this is the woman I loved for decades and still care for deep down", it messes up the Jarlena magic and chemistry. So at this point, I am just all for this pairing to be through. After all these years of investment in the ups and downs of Jarlena from the early 90s when John was Roman, I honestly feel betrayed by this show. The Jarlena issue and the Bo issue are currently the biggest negatives about the show for me. One thing about Reilly though...he definitely knew who his audience wanted to see on their screens and legacy characters were important to him.

If it was a few weeks fine, but not well over a year It was stated that he was looking for something to take down Stefano.
March 14, 201411 yr Member It was stated that he was looking for something to take down Stefano. After so many years and so many attempts, I don't know why the Bradys even BOTHER anymore with that man. Every time they DO take him down, Stefano just gets right back up.
March 14, 201411 yr Member So my theory on Jordan Ridgeway after seeing Wednesday's US episode: Jordan left on that fight and the woman who bedded Rafe is her evil twin.
March 14, 201411 yr Member It was stated that he was looking for something to take down Stefano. okay. Stefano isn't doing anything to his family. They've been pretty much non-existant to him for quite some time now. He's not a threat. If that is his reason for leaving then he's an even bigger a-hole and a dummy at that bc Stefano knows he's been away from his family on a case for over a year. Its not like he wouldn't brief his people.
March 15, 201411 yr Member Didn't John have a head injury a few years back that turned him into Robo John? Maybe he never fully recovered, hence this OOC behavior.
