I hate that the albatross is even returning but for Sabrina to come back and be put back with Patrick would be a huge step backwards for the character and doing her a disservice. She needs to expand beyond him and this is the perfect time to do that

He doesn't sound excited at all in regards to this interview. Sounds like he just took a sleeping pill. I can kind of understand looking at it from his point of view. The storyline sounds emotionally exhausting. I don't really understand the interest in Patrick as a leading man though. For so long he seemed to be ignored, and then the last few years he's been more or less a "lead" on the show and I just don't understand the reasoning considering he feels so isolated and insular as a character.

He has looked exhausted for a couple years, honestly.

I don't think he was remotely invested in his story with Sabrina - he looked palpably ill at ease with all of that. All of this works for his emotionally drained character, and I think he has done absolutely amazing work since Robin first "died" and has given everything they've made him do two hundred percent. He's incredible to watch on the worst day. But I don't think much of it is worthy of his talent, and I think he knows that he, like most of the male leads on the show not named Roger Howarth or Maurice Benard, is just a cog in the machine for FV and RC. I think he knows he's taken for granted and there to move story for bigger things, that Robin and Anna have been compartmentalized the same way, and I think he's tired of it. It's worse when you realize how legitimately over-attached to Sabrina and her baby Ron has admitted he was, how much that couple and their two-minute kid meant to him to the point of crying over scenes he wrote - whereas I don't think Thompson cares for being the Prince Charming stand-in.

I am glad they're putting him more and more with Kelly Monaco, because it's different, it's not Sabrina, and I think they have a very easy chemistry that is different from his existing bond with Kim McCullough, and I think he brings out something better in Monaco than her usual lethargy. But I think that as with almost everything on the show, it's just a means to an end for plot.

I think being away from Sabrina has woken him up. Jason has been more present playing opposite Kelly. He and Kim have an easy chemistry, so when she's back he seems more at ease. I couldn't give two f**ks about what it does to Sigh-less, as he and ME have never quite fit on this show. Patrick and Sam started as friends, so it works for me. I just hope RC doesn't ruin this. Please let the rumors be wrong about "SILLY FILLER" coming on the scene as Jason! That would do TOO MUCH damage to the story and my patience!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think its too bad Patrick and JT are stuck in limbo as KMc comes and goes. I like Patrick and Sam but of course they're impossible with Jason and Sabrina coming back very soon. Patrick and Sabrina should not be reunited and JT pretty much said as much too.

    • They even had the same cop investigate the crime lol
    • So I think I figured based on the end credits who is the script writer for each episode. Thursday's episode looked to have been script written by David Kreizman, and it was a well written episode that flowed well. Today's episode looked to have been script written by Henry Newman (son of Fran Myers and the late Roger Newman).   Right now, I've noticed improvements on the day to day scripts and that's a good sign that eventually the long term outlines that we will see in the coming weeks and months will be good.  Fingers crossed.
    • I have a very different view of Dano. For one thing, she like me, loves her little dogs. Another thing, of course she is effusive, outgoing but she is also very vulnerable & she used to have her Frank, her mother & Vivian who officially was her publicist (I think) but she was so much more. Now, they are all gone. Well, except for her always having a pair of her little dogs. But, if I were going to think in your terms, what I would think is "cool aunt". Because this lady is really one cool dame. Here is one of my favorite views of her https://www.instagram.com/reel/DGecq8rJS4w/

    • I found it to be a rather odd way to deal with a character departing for parts unknown.
    • Today reminded me as to why I’m a little disappointed in the name that the new Pope chose

      Luckily, EJ and Johnny, and pretty much every other character saved today’s episode.  I didn’t expect Javi to be the one to save Sarah though, and I don’t mind it at all, because if it means that Javi is finally going to get his own identity/character, away from his douchy bf, I’m all for it. Javi’s scenes would’ve been a lot better had it not been for him. EJ and Johnny were the best part of today. Their conversation hit a lot of important beats and I’m so looking forward to seeing them play out. And now that EJ knows that Johnny is going to work for Xander, that opens up another dynamic to their storyline and to the Kiriakis family storylines as well. Tying them all together could be really good. There are so many story possibilities that can come out of this. And I thought Carson Boatman did a pretty good job again too.  I also liked that Johnny was there to comfort Chanel after everything that happened with Sarah. They’re so good together. But I do have mixed feelings about Chanel possibly forgiving Johnny so quickly. Hopefully, the question that she asked him at the end of today leads to more conflict for the two of them.  And yeah, still no changes in Alex’s character lol 
    • Awesome, thanks so much for taking the time to grab this episode. I had a quick review of your rip because I was curious why it was 700MB and 30 minutes. The first 10 minutes of the episode is 3169 (opening credits at 5 minutes and again at 15 minutes). I thought we had the full HD version of ep.3170 on the YouTube channel, but it appears they added the wrong episode but labelled it 3170. 
    • I guess, according to Mike Manning in the Michael Fairman chat, he was almost Derek
