Is it in his contract for Ben to be half naked on every show he appears? Cause every episode Ive seen of him he is half naked…..I am all for it considering he is only good as eye candy. Sorry but the guy can't act no matter what some say on here.

I'm into that. They need some kind of conflict that sticks for a bit.

Boy, Lauren Koslow sold the HELL out of Kate's scenes with Rafe today, to the point where I actually believed that there was a plan all along. That woman is such an asset to this show.

Absolutely, just the way she teared up the perfect amount. You could see how hurt she was, but not about to show weakness. Rafe was a total ass, imo. Here someone hired a therapist for him and tried to watch his back and all he can do is bitch at her. Go back to Tammy Sue, loser. Oh wait, she already found someone better!

PREACH. Thank you. He can.not.act. He has a bit of charm, he's a nice guy and that's what people are seeing. A talented thespian he is NOT. We've had worse I suppose. He is nice to look at though.

I'd imagine Tomlin enjoys him shirtless at all times. That agenda is clear.

LOL. These are soap characters, relax :)

Will wasn't exactly jumping at being gay either and he fell for Sonny while in that closet too. Many guys are terrified at coming out. I just wish they'd play it better.

And you ever hear of that adage you want what you can't have? I'd guess that's the case for Sonny. He seems to like closet cases.

Thoughts on Last Week..

1) Point blank: the show is boring - and needs to have some drama. Low budget or not - that is no excuse. I know they can't film in the African jungle or have crazy explosives left and right - but they need drama and suspense.

2) I did enjoy seeing Melanie reconnect with Abby and Brady. Those are very genuine relationships and it felt like old friends reconnecting. I enjoyed that. I really want to see a fun reunion thought with Maxine!!

3) Paul/Sonny has me interested! I'm so happy to see SOME KIND of movement in this storyline!! WilSon need some challenges and I really look forward to seeing this story play out more!

4) I love the constant joke of literally "hiding in the closet" on Days.. It's played well!

5) Melissa Archer's first scenes were good! I really look forward to her scenes with Eric! Please let this lead to some good Eric/Serena/Nicole story! AZ needs some storyline bad!!! I also really appreciate that they are tying her in with Eric's past and even though she is a random character.. she's not just completely out of left field - she at least has some kind of history.

6) Stefano stood up in one scene this past week!! Here's to getting Stefano back in Salem where he belongs where he can actually have scenes with the people and not just talk on the phone with his Asian chick on the side!

    • 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.
