Thank you for the photos, Jason.

 

I was looking around on Twitter, bored, and saw that some were talking, again, about how offputting the Kristen/Brady relationship is to them because of the age issue. Eric Marstolf decided to go along with the joke.

 

 

Lmaoooo

 

Yep, only in Soapland is where a kid who's diapers you changed can grow up to become the love of your life.

New Zoey reminds me too much of Martha Madison: her appearance, her voice, and her demeanor. Weird.

Maggie's suicide attempt lacks any substance. No proper writing that delved into her pain. No proper production values either. An empty prison with one prison guard is pathetic. Days shouldn't have bothered since they can't properly executed it. 

 

And this is the main issue - I don't have a problem with them going there (soaps of ye olden DAYS did deal with sensitive/contoversial issues after all), but as someone said: if they were going there, they needed to do it properly. And in all honesty, it's not the budget that's the issue here, but the fact that Ron's writing doesn't exactly lend itself to devle into this sort of introspective writing. It's a bit like trying to run before you can even crawl in his case.

 

I guess it's a small blessing that he didn't have Ben run into there, shirtless and trying to resuscite her, Ciara screaming in the background and Maggie waking up exclaiming "My hero and everyone's hero of Salem! I'm completely cured of my depression by the power of your salicious lips", which at least shows some progression in the writing. Small steps, small steps.

NONE of them reacted with Maggie with enough emotion except for Xander. To me, the others seemed laid back in hearing the truth and in worrying about her. Just ridiculous.

Freddie left out that his scenes with Chandler were cut because they’re so damn boring.

 

Speaking of Chandler, he GRINNED today when talking to Maggie after her failed suicide attempt. And no, it wasn’t an appropriate acting choice.

If I'm remembering correctly, I think you saw Peter Reckell drive into the parking lot during his return in 1990, or in the storyline it was when Bo was supposed to be in Australia before returning to Salem. 

 

I think I remember seeing a portion of the parking lot outside the window during the brief time when they were doing some scenes in the hallway and made the hallway a "high school" hallway with a few lockers at some point in the last decade, so that would have been the window you saw in the high school locker scene.

 

I forget if you saw the bars of the parking lot gate, but this could have been the street (where the photographer is standing) where John Black was run over and 'killed" by a car in 2007-ish.

I bet that's where Brady went looking for cars with Chloe in 2001.

 

I loved when they were using the studio for "sets" in 2015/16.

Ben’s “redemption” is complete lol it’s time for Xander’s

I liked Zoey for dragging Rafe's family to his face lol.

I just saw that and laughed. Rafe loves to be on that high horse while ignoring his own family history.

 

I don't like new Zoey at all. And it's a shame they've already basically made Orpheus' family a non-starter. There were brief glimpses of them becoming a semi viable family in town but they killed that pretty quickly.

 

I wasn't disturbed by Maggie's suicide attempt and it actually made sense to me.

I spied a palm tree in Salem that day... 

 

DAYS used their back lot many times during the mid-90's through the early 00's. That park bench across the street from Salem Place got a lot of use. Heck, that's where Kate & Franco were posed when Sami found those perfectly staged incriminating photographs of them conspiring. 

Sarah is showing sparks of being interesting for the first time to me. I love how they had her say she has a personality flaw where she jumps into bed with the first person in front of her. I LOL’d at that one. If I were writing it, I’d lean in to her being an alcoholic ho bag. Could be fun.

That location is listed in my sets list as Car Dealership (Star Chrysler Jeep). So, looks like they went to an actual location for that one.

Ciara trying so hard to force her family to accept her with the serial killer is so no annoying. I'm glad Victor stuck to his guns and didn't give his blessing. What the hell did Ciara think was going to happen?

 

Oh god I spoke too soon, he gave in just so she would stay at Titan. I hate Ciara so much.

 

I love Gabi so much.

OMG that sounds horrible

 

Wishing her a speedy recovery

Oof. She’s not had a good time of it this year, has she.
