I actually see something between Leo/Sonny. I do believe that Leo has genuine feeling for Sonny and Sonny had genuine feelings for Leo when they first got together. Sonny wasn't really exactly pushing him off of him during the wedding. He let Leo touch him multiple times and didn't really protest it. I could see Sonny softening towards Leo during the marriage and something coming from that. Stuff like that happens and it's soapy. Maybe that might happen if they don't want to fully revisit Will/Sonny anytime soon. I do like Leo, he's very entertaining. 

 

I think he should have made more of an effort because she is the mother of his child. I think he should have tried to get know her better, spend more time with Ari, and his family as a whole. Instead of just mostly taking up with Paul.  Heck, I remember Sonny telling someone (I think maybe Will. Or maybe Justin.) how good Leo was with Ari. And how he helped comfort her when she was missing Gabi, when Gabi was in prison. If Leo could made this type of effort, (regardless of the scheme he had going on), then Will could have made more of an effort., being that's his actual child.

 

And in all fairness, I do put a lot of that on the writing, but Will has not been the most supportive and involved person when it comes to Gabi and Ari. Maybe they will rectify his lack of interaction with them going forward.

The young Horton Twink needs a strong no nonsense man to wake him up. ESS did wonders for VH's Luke.  ESS was the best thing about ATWT last days. At this point i don't think even ESS or someone like him will help. GR has breathe some life to Wilson. With his campy shenanigans.  But i'm not sure how long that will last. Even when a strong performer like CS was on. CM was mostly sleepwalking as Will. I would love to see an end to Wilson. I really did enjoy them in the early yrs. At this point wouldn't mind Will discovering his actual bi.  It would be a sight to behold. Seeing ESS and CM in bed together.

Yup, VH finally decided to act when ESS came aboard. He even admitted to it in an interview after ATWT was canceled. IMO that's what Chandler Massey needs too. Btw...he looked damn hot on Thursday's episode.

I enjoyed Julie confronting Gabi today about her gaslighting Abigail and keeping the secret about Charlotte from Chad. I liked that she used the word '"mendacious", lol. I was surprised that they actually had Sonny/Chad hear the fall and see Gabi at the top of the stairwell. after Julie had fell.  I had originally thought that no one would be around when Julie fell except Gabi and maybe Gabi would leave the house and pretend like she didn't do it. I wonder what they will think, and how Gabi will try and spin the story about Julie falling. Maybe Gabi will halfway tell the truth  and say that Julie confronted her with "bogus" claims and they got to tussling with each other, causing Julie to fall.

 

Also, Sonny forgave Chad rather quickly today for his role in the sexual harassment lawsuit. Though, I did think it wouldn't take long for him to forgive him. I wonder who will be the CEO of Titan now that Victor is mad about Chad because of that betrayal (as well as another bad business decision Victor discovered he made.) and Sonny has said he doesn't want to be the CEO. Sonny did try and convince Victor to let Chad remain the CEO, maybe Chad might actually still stay in that role for the time being.

 

And I was surprised that Abigail actually told Kayla the truth about her plan. But she did and it looks like Kayla is willing to keep her secret at least for now.

Didn't care for Julie calling Gabi..."Chiquati(sp?)"....the fall was ridiculous in that they were fighting in the hallway and somehow Julie falls backwards yet sideways at the same time all way down the stairs.....LOL....instead of just falling backwards and hitting her back on the wall.....Sonny and Chad just staring at Julie and then Gabi was ridiculous too....you'd think they'd rush to her quickly.....awful directing......

 

Sonny in his suit again....they need to stop making Sonny happen as a business tycoon........was so busy though looking at Chad's chest hair....yummmm

I think that tomorrow we will definitely get much stronger reaction from at least Sonny when him and Chad try and help Julie. I think that Gabi will lie to them to some degree about what happened. (I think she will at least lie about why her and Julie were arguing/scuffling with each other).Also I  wonder if Sonny will end up choosing another career path. He did say he didn't want to be CEO of Titan today. 

 

And I saw this picture on Twitter. That is Chandler/Will in the Santa suit.

I wonder if that is just some behind the scenes photo. Or if Will actually agrees to be Santa, say maybe for the annual Children's Holiday party at the hospital. I could actually see him doing that, and Leo and Sonny attending it. I could also see Will being there provoking Leo to

I could see Will volunteering to be Santa at Children's Annual Holiday party. Maybe he does that to keep his mind off of things, but Sonny and Leo end up attending the event. I believe if those things happen Leo could end up really showing his behind at that event, lol. 

 

Or maybe Will decides to dress up as Santa for Ari (and to get close to Sonny) and he goes to the mansion dressed like that. And ends up interacting with Leo/Sonny. Maybe that is why Leo is shown in his robe. Maybe he's prancing around the mansion in his robe and then Will shows up dressed as Santa.

The fall was high camp. But i didn't mind it.  Since Days can be so blah. At least this was exciting. Seeing two diva's battling it out . The stunt person falling looked like a man in a wig

 They even used the hallway of the K-Mansion.  Chiquati means little girl. As a Spanish person i didn't take offensive too Julie calling her ''Chiquati''.  Sonny continues to look terrible in his business tycoon power suits.  The WTF looks on Sonny & Chad's faces when they saw Julie on the floor were priceless.

 COMPLETELY agree about the dir3cting of that final scene. It was SO bad I replayed it on my dvr so I could laugh.

 

When Sonny and Chad heard a noise, they looked at each other for a LONG time before either one reacted or moved. That was the start of a frightfully directed mess. The editing was middle #school stuff.

I was glad to see Doug again today and watch him have emotional scenes at Julie's bedside. 

 

Also, I didn't care for the way that Chandler was acting today in his scenes when he was trying to get Sonny to be with him. Once again he didn't show much energy and seemed like he was giving a weak effort in those scenes. I did laugh out loud at him offering to be the "other man", but he wasn't good in those scenes today.

Gabi with her“Did I Do That?”  look as Chad & Sonny stared at her was comical. An elderly woman is injured. Yet they keep staring at each other. Than the EMT's take forever to arrive. I'm glad SSH is finally being used. It's also great seeing BH being used.  Without Leo, Wilson were coma inducing. They both show the least amount of effort in their scenes. They were much more animated in their cute Christmas video.  Will & Sonny's hair was extra bad today.

    • I'm anticipating most of the cast at the Nice location for a few weeks a la the Tuscan villa for Victoria and Ashland's wedding. I don't know why they bother. I'd rather see the money going into more regular home/office sets. This party has been a bust. No secrets revealed, break ups  etc. Ugly decorations and I'm going to slam the costuming again. Just the guests heaping praise on  Nikki  like she's achieved some magnificent milestone rather than just getting a year older.

In the loving arms of his wife, Dr. Marlena Evans, John took his last breath at the end of the June 2 episode, after suffering devastating internal injuries during a lab explosion. The iconic character went out as he lived — a hero. Sensing the fans’ devastation on Monday, Marlena’s portrayer Deidre Hall posted this simple-but-powerful message to fans on Instagram: “I know. I know. Hardest day ever.”

    • Now coming into June...well...   I knew it was coming but I didn't like the start to the next round of Dani/Bill/Hayley. As the 3 A plots from the start of the show (The SilkPress storyline and Martin's Secret being the other two), it needed to be benched for a while to develop those characters and allow other characters and storylines to grow. 3 months in, Hayley is the weak link, Dani is still divisive, but not boring, and Bill has been making his mark with some plots faster than others. So last week seeing the story starting to loop back around to them with Hayley's potential pregnancy, I honestly had mixed feelings.   I get it. The SilkPress storyline is currently in aftermath/next turn mode, so it has to be moved into a C plot position. Moreso if we want to keep the very talented Miss Trish around. And I love how clever the writers are being with the storyline. They give us enough in the episodes and are still playing out beats to keep the appetite fed. I don't feel like anyone is being dumbed down to keep her around. And Trish is giving nuances in her alone scenes with NuTed. I shouldn't care for a clear psycho, but she be selling it. That said...I wish they had given us a little more of the Martin's Secret storyline in the last week of the month though I loved the game of cat and mouse Bill did on Martin and Smitty to keep the storyline alive and active after it had a nice build beginning of May and vanished for a week mid-May. And it appears like it's about to go back to the backburner as an A plot which of course leaves the A plot of Dani/Bill/Hayley.   I am probably in the minority as someone who is not anti-Dani here and even she annoyed the heck out of me last week. In character true, but I just felt like there was a way to get all of that across without it feeling like...as I've said before...one step forward, two steps back...and have it feel organic. I liked Hayley got a little bit of edge with her, but she still ain't no match for Dani. And it reminds to be seen if we should be going back to that well of a story yet.   Now about today's show...   And I thought Tracy was bad! lol. But YES. Sharon has been worth the wait. And so has Anita's story! Finally having TT in the limelight. This has been a nice slow burn for me and a nice B plot. And the actress is good. The wig is giving. And her holding what Anita's secret is over her head and threatening to tell Vernon....Ooooo...that is what I was waiting for.    And speaking of bad...I thought Eva vs Kat was a great rivalry. But I am loving the rivalry that is growing with 'Nancy Drew' and Silk Press Sheila! They both get good licks in and are so cunning with each other. And I definitely have liked that since the anniversary party, that it has been growing. Now that Kat has been proven right, she has not backed down. And neither has SilkPress. And we got a 'Ms. B@tch' moment, too? LOVE. Eva coming up with a trump card was delicious and so 90s Sami Brady. GOOD. And the coda with Jacob and the expert...YES. The Silk Press storyline has been the best paced on the show so I love that the aftermath of the anniversary party continues to be so...barring one flaw...well for me. Not enough Nicole's POV.   And I like the C plots on display. And by that, I mean Chelsea with Vernon. And it made me wonder what the writers have plan for her love life now that the throuple is over with. I was watching her and going awww.   And of course the mystery man around Martin. I am starting to wonder if he really even works at the country club given how he made a run for it. That would be a twist.    Speaking of Martin...good to see him in scenes with his father and mother.    I'm getting used to NuTed.    I felt the last episode of May was a bit of a letdown, but this was a very nice recovery.
    • Unless they cut him, I'd think he would stay. Surely, he didn't choose to return because he expected high quality. I figure he gets to work when he wants and spend a lot of time doing his own thing and being with his family.
    • The writing for Liz and Lucky is indeed terrible, but if JJ signed a one-year contract he may be gone in a couple of months anyway. Perhaps they’re just cutting their losses.
    • That would be his older sister Stacey. She was the center of a big story back in the day. Nola was out to snag medical student Kelly Nelson, who she thought would provide her with the life she craved. He was in love with a girl named Morgan. Nola plotted to get pregnant by him, but couldn't manage to get him in bed. So she seduced Floyd, who thought she was in love with him. When she knew she was pregnant, she got Kelly drunk and made sure he woke up next to her in bed. Kelly believed her when she told him he made her pregnant. They were about to elope to Las Vegas, but her mother ratted her out and Kelly abandoned her. She almost married Floyd, but jilted him at the altar. She went to work for Quint. When the baby came prematurely, Kelly saved both of them. She named the baby Kelly Louise to irk Morgan, who was now married to Kelly. When she fell in love with Quint, she had a change of heart over all the trouble she had caused, so she changed the baby's name to Anastasia Louise, shortened to Stacey. Quint was a devoted stepfather and Henry treated her like his own granddaughter.  After Quint and Nola leave SF, I believe Stacey is never seen again. Which is odd, you would think they would have brought her back with Nola and J, but they never did.
