Melughnie, Naggie, Serena, Taniel, and Beige all in the same episode. Wow... that was mind numbing.

Melanie is back to being insufferable. Molly's hyper, lovestruck teenager act is horrible. Eve not putting up with her sh-t was beautiful.

Serena: "Eric, I wasn't expecting you." Then why the hell are you answering the door with no pants on? I still have no idea why I should care about her. She and Eric get more contrived with every episode. I hope whatever secret she has is interesting.

I wish Harold would've walked in on Jordan and Chad.

Could Paige be more annoying? I feel like this breakup has been going on for weeks.

WHY does Daniel have to talk to Jennifer about what he does with his life? I really don't get it.

LOL at Eve telling Jen she's going to get even more wrinkles if she keeps frowning.

OH NOES! My poor baby Paul was crying. Come here, boo boo, I will hold you tight and make it all go away! :wub:

I love that Paul reaches out to Sonny everytime he has an issue. Unfortunately, Will is the only one he can find. unsure.png I really hope we end up with Sonny/Paul in the end.

I enjoyed Roman getting Chad's anonymous letter and confronting Rafe (and Rafe actually looked really good for some reason) although I had to REALLY roll my eyes hard at Daniel needing to discuss some police issue with Rafe just to give him All Mighty Saintness a chance to counsel Rafe on his new drama.

Melanie/Gabi was good.

Actually, I'm glad all three played people not related to anyone currently on the cast. The problem is that the writers aren't crafting good character development nor strong backstories for the three characters these actors are playing.

I do think the show finally got it right with Jordan, but by the time they did.. the audience lost any interest they might have had for her. Same with Ben.. and I fear Serena will continue that trend as well. I think having her come on as a reporter was a good move, but putting her in an insta pairing with Eric is never a good move.

I've also been meaning to say that the DiMera den/office/whatever is really pissing me off. It makes me feel claustrophobic for some reason. DAYS already has an extraordinary amount of tiny, cramped sets that seeing the big DiMera mansion foyer/living room & the Kiriakis mansion was such a breath of fresh air. Now that Sami and EJ are gone, they had to reduce it? Or was this done so they could put up the 'set' of Chad's bedroom, in which he keeps f-cking Jordan? Because, newsflash DAYS, two walls and a bed does not a set make.

Melissa Archer just started but RSW and CS are boring no matter what character they would have played. RSW is just being used for romp scenes and thats it. His character has no value/purpose to the show. The only one that interests me on the show is Christopher Sean. They need to recast Will again because Guy is not cutting it as Will. The show continues to be a boring mess and lots of actors need their pink slips.

    • I really didn't start watching the show until season 12 when I was a teen, so I only caught the last three years. I LOVED the show over all though...even that part of 13 that was a bit messy! So, it's been a treat streaming the previous seasons on Plex. I'm amazed at how well so much of the writing holds up over 30 years later. Far better than a lot that we get today! For the most part, stories move along at nice pace with good twists and turns! I just finished season 11, so I'm finally picking up where I started watching all those years before. When I started watching as a teen, Laura had already died, so while she was mentioned pretty often, I didn't have much background with the character. CM was an amazing actress and had chemistry with everyone. So, it's a bit of a headscratcher that they didn't seem to have any idea of what to do with her starting at around season 7. Her scenes at that point are mostly short, brief, and she has very little true story right until the episodes where she's dying in 9. I wonder what it was about the character that the writers couldn't figure out what to do with her. Also, Ben's exit storyline was a bit confusing for me. I never really got who this woman was who was stalking him and this "secret organization." The whole plot seems like it should be on a different show. Michelle Phillips and Nicolette Sheridan have really fun mom/daughter/frenemies chemistry. I remember having a huge crush on PP's Michael and being disappointed when he was written out at the end of season 12. 
    • mayoclinic: Symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder and how severe they are can vary. People with the disorder can: Have an unreasonably high sense of self-importance and require constant, excessive admiration. Feel that they deserve privileges and special treatment. Expect to be recognized as superior even without achievements. Make achievements and talents seem bigger than they are. Be preoccupied with fantasies about success, power, brilliance, beauty or the perfect mate. Believe they are superior to others and can only spend time with or be understood by equally special people. Be critical of and look down on people they feel are not important. Expect special favors and expect other people to do what they want without questioning them. Take advantage of others to get what they want. Have an inability or unwillingness to recognize the needs and feelings of others. Be envious of others and believe others envy them. Behave in an arrogant way, brag a lot and come across as conceited. Insist on having the best of everything — for instance, the best car or office. At the same time, people with narcissistic personality disorder have trouble handling anything they view as criticism. They can: Become impatient or angry when they don't receive special recognition or treatment. Have major problems interacting with others and easily feel slighted. React with rage or contempt and try to belittle other people to make themselves appear superior. Have difficulty managing their emotions and behavior. Experience major problems dealing with stress and adapting to change. Withdraw from or avoid situations in which they might fail. Feel depressed and moody because they fall short of perfection. Have secret feelings of insecurity, shame, humiliation and fear of being exposed as a failure. --- Or maybe Leslie simply has Soap Villain Syndrome.
    • Ambryn Michelle and Trisha Mann-Grant are easily the most charismatic actresses to grace daytime in a longggggggg time. This show wouldn’t be as good without them, IMO. 
    • whatever she has is far worse. Narcissism is just a symptom for deeper issues.

    • What is it? I already know Ambyr was electrifying.
    • The show isn't great right now, but I do hope it can stay on, unlikely as that may be. I guess at least it's better than this time last year. I will say it doesn't really feel like Shortland Street anymore.
    • You guys are going to die when you watch the first scene of today's episode.
    • True. We agree here. She is far from done.
    • Jacob's brother is named "Luke" and their mother is named "Darlene", for the sake of specifics and all.
