I really think they should have clued us in on the above. Sometimes it's better we're also "in" on things.

 

And I think they skipped a few too many beats with the Adrienne/Bonnie switch.

I heard there were scenes of Maggie discussing Bonnie a few weeks back but they were cut

[KMan101]

 

I know they cut a scene with Maggie/Julie and they were supposed to be discussing the club and I believe Bonnie (well, "Adrienne"), and it would have made sense because Julie was heavily involved in the Mickey/Bonnie relationship.

Great episode!  Loved the little MSW line from Steve today. Loving JE as trashy Bonnie....

 

The only downside was Eric and Jen which I ff.....LOL

[Chris B]

I hope there is a way to keep Bonnie around. I've always loved Judi Evans as Bonnie, but I find Adrianne to be one of the most dull characters on the show. Hard to believe it's the same actress.

[Soapsuds]

Judi Evans played Beth on GL brilliantly. She could have been a dull character but she had a lot of great backstory to work with. I'd love Bonnie to stick around too and play the evil bitch on the show a la Sheila Carter. She is very good at playing goody goody and trashy/wicked.....LOL

 

 

And am I wrong to like Sheila and want T-Boz to stick around? She adds some humor to the show. I thought she was a bad choice in casting but I have grown to like her character.

[Chris B]

I like Sheila too! And I LOVED Judi as Beth on GL! I just find Adrienne to be boring. I also hate Patch and Kayla. I think they just were more products of their time and don't translate for me. I know others love them.

[Soapsuds]

I thought their mini story with Tripp was a big failure. Their acting was bad by all involved and unfortunately I find Patch and Kayla boring.

[Faulkner]

I like Nichols and Evans but agree that Patch and Kayla feel anachronistic. Not sure what the point of them is on today's show, especially with the Bradys not really having a strong presence in Salem.

[Soapsuds]

I actually found MBE more interesting as Sierra on ATWT.

[Chris B]

MBE's Sierra lacked the spark of Finn Carter, but she was certainly more interesting than Kayla. I can't believe she's won an Emmy for DAYS recently because she is a total snoozefest here.

[Faulkner]

Kayla's certainly better than Katherine Bell, which was my real intro to MBE.

 

She can be solid when she has something to do and plays within her strengths.

[Soapsuds]

I thought the character of Sierra changed with MBE in the role. Sierra became regal and dressed it. She sure was Lucinda's daughter.  FC's Sierra was simple and didn't care what she wore. She was the total opposite of Lucinda and that was the way she was suppose to be written as by creator Douglas Marland.

Wow! Today's Days was fun. No one realizing that ''Adrienne'' is really Bon Bon makes everyone look stupid. No one questioning how Adrienne who had a Mastectomy is showing her ample bosoms.  Still we finally get a pay off to the doggelganger nonsense. I loved seeing so many people at The Kiriakis Mansion. I wonder if we will ever learn who Angelica's mystery partner is? I'm really liking T-Boz as Sheila. Eli has way more chemistry with Shelia than with a bland Gabi. Loved when Bonnie pushed Maggie and called her B. Poor Adrienne that woman is going to end up with post traumatic stress disorder. Chandler looked so cute playing dead. It's nice to see stories advancing. I wouldn't say this is Douglas Marland level writing yet is way better than the Tale of the 2 Jason's over at Mob Hospital.

Tuesday's episode was great! The pacing was spot on and the show went by so quickly. I loved every bit of it. The only slow part for me was Eli/Gabi but I am curious what his ties to Sheila are! This is now starting to have the feel of OLTL to me when Ron was writing. I enjoyed his OLTL a lot. Granted, some stories were misses but I was never bored watching eps.
