If Spencer were to pick up an addiction, he'd be well w/in his rights.  EVERYDAMNTHANG is laid at his feet.  It's ridiculous.  I'm shocked he even said something about his arm bothering him but I largely suspect that is only due to it not really being his arm that's the trouble.  Otherwise, Spencer, the God, would not say anything and play, for the hood, until his arm falls off.  

 

@All My ShadowsI'm feeling the Laura/Mo conflict.  I like the sound of that.  

 

Preach, who could really pass as my nephew's identical twin, is whipped?  Lawd, Coop is supposed to be the stupid one.  

 

Layla in boss mode is fun.  I like it.  

 

And Olivia upset over Asher and another girl?  Why do I care when she's longing for Spencer?  

 

Love love love the idea of a female coach!  Bust all their balls, lady!!!!!

 

 

For the life of me, I couldn't think of who that kid with attitude was.  Someone on Twitter did the detective work.

I smiled and cried ear to ear because for the first time in a very long time a show has done right by adoptive parents. 

 

Jordan really needs to snap out of it.  

 

Spencer finally realized how much time and energy was spent on Coop's determined stupidity

It won't be long before I'm over Olivia.  Wish they'd end this thing with Spencer!  

 

At what point do you write Asher out?  His new romance is meaningless because Olivia doesn't even want him.  There's no value!  

 

If Simone is getting a series, I'm requesting a recast!

Last week, I heard Spencer and thought he was right about Coop's stupidity.  Then, Coop came back and reminded viewers that Spencer has a hero complex and has to save the day.  He did the opposite of everything she asked him not to, including confronting Tyrone.  I've always been team Coop and I am even more now that she stood up for herself.  Spencer is a teen trying to save the neighborhood and everyone in it.  Then gets mad when he has to fix a problem.  Let people make mistakes and be there for them when they really need you.  

 

Olivia is an annoying bitch who hides behind addiction to not be held accountable.  No matter what happened between Spencer and Olivia (I don't think it was anything), Layla needs to dump him and dump Olivia.  No one needs a friend like Olivia!

 

If Spencer got back with Layla while playing around with Olivia, he's trash of the highest order!  

 

Simone needs to be recast [before the spinoff] or dropped.  The new girl can go.  The actress is just giving me nothing.

I have a few suggestions for casting the spin-off's 

Deans, Professors, an Athletic Director, and Faculty Advisors at the "Historically Black College":
Nathan Purdee
(Nee Platt)
Nathan Owens
 
@ChitHappens  @NothinButAttitude @All My Shadows   Who would you like to see turn up?    Other bigger names like Tamara Tunie and Tonya Pinkins may already have regular roles on other shows, but I would love it if they could appear as well!    I have the last five episodes to binge today.

I read the first few posts just now. I strangely hadn't heard of this show and I'm surprised that a show on CW is actually good. After a while, I stopped watch Dynasty and Riverdale. Both seem like dumpster fires now. Granted, I did like the superhero shows but I kept getting too many erections so I had to stop watching them. I might give this show a shot though.

This.

 

Those Simone scene last week at the cabin were painful to watch. 

 

They need to recast if a spinoff is about to be built around her. 

 

@slick jones, they would need all of the above to make that spinoff work if that girl is the lead. 

 

I'm going to keep saying it, Kia is the character that needs the spinoff. That actress who plays that role can act.

I totally agree.  I just don't like the actress.   Having watched five episodes-including the "wedding" today, she's a hard no for me, too.

 

Kia would be an awesome character to spin off, as she hasn't been on as often, and she's pretty much a character you could go in several directions with.

Kia, from the little we've seen of her, is more impactful than Simone. She's someone I can root and care for. She's involved in her community; she's street savvy; she's a character that gives me the impression that she's going somewhere. 

 

The audience only somewhat cares for Simone because she is tied to Jordan. 

 

Patience is someone they could build a spinoff around too.

I need to binge all of this season so far except for the first episode, and I'm getting itchy to do it because I keep seeing the previews/reviews on the official Instagram account, and I love love love any type of closed-environment episodes, so that cabin ep has me excited.

 

I want a spin-off centered on Mo. She cleans her act up and moves to be closer to family in another state (maybe...Louisiana?!). I need it.

      Bay City better be ready, because I'm back!   At Vicky's apartment she is once again drowning in doubts and jealousy. Deep down she realizes that her dream wedding will be a farce and nothing can change that. Bridget tries to calm her down, but the heroine is determined to suffer. She is not hearing any positive thoughts. She doesn't believe Jamie will marry her. At the Cory Publishing building another farce is in process. Iris, once again pretending to be the angel of love and sisterhood... is telling Mac and Rachel some wonderful news. When Iris has good news, you really need to look out for yourself. That's when things are bad. So what are the news? Miss Devil has put Amanda up for an award! Mac is smiling from ear to ear, and Rachel is suspicious. Maybe that's the effect Iris is looking for. To once again accent on the fact that Rachel doubts and criticizes her daughter. Iris will do anything to destabilize their relationship. She is like a cancer. Back to Vicky! Jamie is at the door. Looking like a sad puppy, he has come with a surprise. No, he is not gonna leave her and her unborn... Not yet. He has bought her earrings. Sad face. How nice. NOT. Victoria, of course... manages to break one of them the moment she touches it. Bad premonition maybe? She was back in hysterics. It's not easy to trap a man into marriage. Then you have to live with someone that didn't want you in the first place.  We were introduced to a new character (to me at least she is new) - Cass's sister - Stacey. She is giving me "hidden skeletons in the closet"-vibes. Love a girl like that. Stunning actress. I like her. The highlight of the episode was the strange and creepy reveal of Evan the escort... hugging someone named Janice's grave. I remember she had an issue with Rachel... and Rachel killed her in self defense I think... It was hinted in prior episodes, but I lack the context and story. I just know that everyone at the Frame house was mad that Rachel killed the bish. But I also got the impression that this Janice was sick in the head. So Evan is now talking to her grave and telling her he is going to ruin Rachel's life basically. Oh, Evan... I liked you better as a sexy gigolo.  Overall - 10/10 - how can I rate it lower when I haven't watched in months!!!

    • Once again, Marlena and Kayla were used very effectively and I couldn’t be happier.  Marlena counseling Johnny and then Chanel was the best part of today. They’re really delving into the human emotion of this storyline and I think that’s a good thing. It feels so much mature than it was before. EJ’s fear about what could happen to Johnny if he doesn’t let go of his anger could lead to some really good storylines in the future.  I also really appreciate the way that Paula/Jeanne are mixing it up and having different characters interact with each other. It was nice to see Shawn and Johnny remember that they’re cousins and share a scene together. I liked the parallel that was drawn between the two of them, and what’s going on with their fathers. I did have mixed feelings about everything with Cat though. I enjoyed Chanel warning her about EJ, mostly because it played into the way that she was written today. But I wasn’t the biggest fan of the Chad/EJ scenes. The two of them discussing Chad’s potential feelings for Cat didn’t really keep my interest.  But above all, I feel that everyone is being used more effectively and that we’re getting a better understanding of everyone as well. And that was exactly what Days needed.  
    • It's a wild story for sure, especially the final conclusion (and fireworks offcamera, like Victoria Wyndham tearing into Michael Logan).

    • I did some research and the story wrapped up with Eric,a caretaker responsible for Georgina's death who then  tried to do away with Laurie but a vision of Georgina spooked him and he smashed into a mirror, dying of glass wounds. So there was a supernatural element. I wonder if the Brody character in the credits was Eric Brody?
    • AI has it wrong. David was working as an aide at PV Hospital due to failing to save his brother's life and refusing to continue as a doctor. His true profession was revealed later. Edna had divorced him while he was in Vietnam and he had no reason to be in contact with her. He had no idea that he had a daughter.  Ruth was Ruth Martin, she was still married to Joe, not Jeff. He was not deceiving Ruth as he believed that Edna was his ex. The poisoning story happened late in his run and probably introduced when they knew Gleason was leaving. AI's interpretation of him as conniving seems to based on that short lived poisoning story and other misinformation. For most of 76 he was involved in the Ruth/Joe triangle to the point where Ruth was ready to divorce Joe and leave town. Joe had to have surgery, David operated and Ruth suddenly realized she wanted to stay with Joe despite all the problems they'd been happening. David then got involved with Christina with Jeff and then Edna as complications. And he arrived late 75 not 76.
    • Interesting that they started going into a supernatural direction with ghosts - I don't think they really did that before? I wonder if it was a response to getting put so late in the afternoon and I guess trying to appeal to that former Dark Shadows audience? 
    • That makes sense then! Is there a place where you can read more Daytime Serial Newsletters? They sound very informative. Thank you
