No he basically just sucks Sonny's d**k like before. He's been here over a year and still isn't back with Sam. I think Kelly Monaco might have a personal issue with him and that's why their reunion has been delayed for so long. That or she simply preferred her character with Drew and to work with Billy and tried to fight for that for a long time. Or a combination of those factors, haha.

Right? I remember the three of them shared a scene or two back around the time the Charles Street story was going on (I'm still bitter that canvas-wide story that had potential ended up going nowhere) and Kiki and TJ later had a nice scene in the hospital about her unjustly taking his spot in the medical program but that...was it. I did see nuTJ in the preview for her funeral though so I hope he and Molly are there. Still weird all around. I know Tequan's very limited availability was part of the reason they didn't do much with TJ and Molly as a couple the last few years, and I can't blame them for trying to hold on to Tequan as long as they could, but it really hurt the teen scene. Tequan doing 10 episodes a year the last few years resulted in Molly barely getting any screen time (plus the fact that they more or less made her redundant with the return of Kristina and also couldn't do as much with her after they started acting like Ric didn't exist) and resulted in TJ's handful of scenes being mosty with Curtis and Jordan. There just simply wasn't a good way to do a Molly, TJ and Kiki friendship any justice in 10 episodes over the course of a year.

I'm glad we finally got to see Michael and Kristina's reactions to Kiki's death, among others. The initial reactions and pacing were such sh!t though and truly unforgiveable. Also, I distinctly remember Kristina ran into Kiki in the park maybe earlier this year and they acted like they were friends still in touch in #OffscreenGH but none of that came across in Kristina's reaction. She was just her brother's ex-girlfriend (not even sure which brother she was referring to LOL).

That funeral.  It was just awful.  This is still a professionally made television show? Rough.

 

Roger Howarth was absolutely terrible today.  Terrible.  Even at his most preposterous and outlandish as Todd he was better than this.  It is glaring. 

 

I would be be embarrassed to be seen watching today’s show, it was that bad .

Between Franco’s over-the-top eulogy and Saint Sonny praying at the alter of hypocrisy yet again, it was terrible.  I loathe the character of Sonny, absolutely loathe him.

 

In what should have been a nice, touching funeral episode, granted for a character that should have been written out ages ago, it turned out to be mediocre, embarrassing and just plain bad.

I didn't watch but I wish I could say I'm surprised. It's kind of telling they focus it on Franco and Sonny. EVERYTHING circles around to them somehow. I get so embarrassed watching Roger Howarth anymore. Please please please get this man off of my screen. I just don't get the appeal. I never did, honestly. And then you have dead eyes Mo stammering and trying to look pensive and angry. No thanks.

 

Yep. It died a long time ago.

Is anyone actually into Anna and Finn together? I don't hate them, I just don't care at all when they're on screen. If they broke up tomorrow I wouldn't be sad, and I wouldn't really be happy either. I'm just completely apathetic about them, besides thinking Anna/Finola deserves better, though I don't really mind Finn that much and find him kind of comical sometimes.

 

I also cracked up when Carly called Ava crazy and Ava was just like, "Okay, Ferncliff!" Lmao.

 

Also yeah... Howarth was terrible and the funeral revolving around Franco was awful.

    • Except she never worked there at all and barely even knew where the Chancellor Industries plant was located  In 1980, Kay attempted to install Derek Thurston (her third husband) in a position at Chancellor Industries.  The show introduced a character named George Packard who'd supposedly been running Chancellor since Phillip's demise in 1975.  (George Packard's storyline in 1980 was attempting to keep Derek Thurston from bankrupting the company.)   We didn't hear much of anything about Chancellor Industries for the next twenty-five years.  Then, at that point, we met Eliot Hampton (?) who'd been running the company for decades and had been embezzling from it.  Jill took it upon her herself to oust Eliot Hampton (?) and take control of the company.  That's when Kay became actively involved in the management of the company.  From 1974 till 2004 Kay Chancellor was strictly a hands-off owner.  It was downright absurd that the last ten years of life, she was written as this formidable businesswoman who'd always been involved in Chancellor Industries.  
    • Well, it's going to be something when he finds out the truth.  Agreed.  On that note, I can't until it all comes out. I find Lulu to be ridiculous. 
    • I almost posted this because that was my initial reaction too:  this is weird/cringe, to sing around a piano after such a huge family shattering bomb was dropped.  But I got over that and just enjoyed her voice, the song and the montage we saw as everyone's emotions in the aftermath were pouring out.
    • The Equalizer original series was not a big hit yet it became a movie franchise and got a reboot series. The Equalizer reboot lasted 5 seasons, so one season longer than the original series.
    • Today is Sean Freeman's birthday

      His social media/IMDb doesn't have his age but from some posts he's made, I'm guessing 1989 is his birth year.
    • Here's the timeline, as I recall it being published. The WGA strike was 5/2–9/27/2023 Annalynne McCord was announced as being hired in December 2023, for a one-year contract https://deadline.com/2024/06/days-of-our-lives-when-to-expect-annalynne-mccord-peacock-1235975806/ RonC's first scripts back from the strike began airing May 31, 2024 (around Konstantine & Maggie's wedding) https://www.tvinsider.com/1137709/days-of-our-lives-writers-return-15000th-episode-storylines/ Her first air date was June 19th 2024. The actress has said she was not told who she would be playing until she started taping. RonC 's replacements were announced July 2024, with his scripts airing through April 2025 Side note: DAYS social media team seems to be playing fast and loose with BTS videos, in terms of how far in advance they film content (e.g. their April Fools' Joke videos were clearly not filmed on 4/1/25), so we shouldn't assume anyone's current status, versus those who were there nine months ago.
    • April and her husband (Draper) are the "young leads" who tie all the storyline threads together.  They're normally in the center of the action.  In this particular storyline, Draper is the attorney who represents Paige Madison.  (The district attorney, Logan Swift, has given Paige Madison "temporary immunity from prosecution" if she will lead the police to the members of the Tobias Gang who stole the firearms.  But Paige mainly just ducks bullets from various gang members who pop-up to assassinate her.)    
    • It's one thing to post about a soap's rumors or gossip, which in point of fact we've all done. It's another to present yourself as the inside source who knows something to be fact that's about to break wide, then backtrack and call it just Twitter speculation. Between those two extreme poles you have to commit to one or the other. If I got something wrong, I'd say it. (Nor would I keep playing insider after what I pulled with Drake Hogestyn, which should've gotten someone permanently banned.) And regardless, you don't open with this 'news' you don't actually want to stand by yet by mocking DRW's extremely valid concerns re: how the Trina character and Tabyana Ali has been marginalized and put out to virtual pasture ever since the day NAC left. Her playing out her current contract in a C-storyline with Kai does not change that.
    • Yeah, I thought it would be more explosive or heated and it was kind of standard.  Both can do more with the material.  I just don't think the writing was there.
