I don’t have the same ‘emotional’ (read: sexual) investment many on here have in the actor who plays Charlie, but the character is an interesting one, reasonably well acted and is clearly viable, so I have no doubt Ron Carlivati will find a way to re-introduce him further down the line, but given what he’s done and the way the story has gone, he has to go (for now) unless they plan to plausibly retain him and show the consequences of his actions and journey back from that.

 

He’s already positioned to incur the wrath of most of the cast and tied to another young man that he can become a rival for in years to come.

I thought I was the only one that was not drooling over the Charlie actor. I think he's a decent actor and he's not ugly, but I don't see his looks as the end all be all AT ALL.

 

Ron is weird about villains. You never know which ones he's going to choose to find ways to keep around or which ones he's just going to send off or kill off rather quickly.

I guess I wouldn't mind if just one member of the family was being manipulated. But she's literally toying with the whole family and no one is even getting close to putting the pieces together.

The Gwen storyline really requires us to suspend all logic.  All Abby, Chad, Jenn, or Jack would have to do is talk to each other and they’d figure out she’s playing them.  But this is a soap trope and I’m willing to go with it because, for now, the actress and character are really working and bringing a great new energy to the show.

 

If today is the Horton Christmas show I wonder who’s at Nicole’s door?  Unless they’re gonna break from their one family a day theme, I have to assume it’s Lucas and not Rafe?  I believe they’re picking right back up on that thread today.  I am bummed that Shawn and Lucas seem to not be at Jennifer’s house for the tree trimming!

What was even the point of having Will visit? He disappeared at Jarlena's. Didn't even say hi. To his beloved grandma Marlena. Was MIA at the annual Horton Christmas tree ornament hanging celebration. He hasn't visited his killer, former cellmate, probably lover and BFF. The Necktie Killer. Will must be at a Christmas orgy. In the never seen gay part of Salem (Rainbow Lane). Having the time of his life.

They're gonna need a bigger Christmas tree at the Horton house soon.

 

I love the tree trimming episode. It's one of the those annual traditions that makes Days truly feel like Days. I know they couldn't have that many people there this year, but hopefully they'll be able to next year.

Well, the boy does need love lol I'm sure we'll be getting a Will/Ben scene soon. I did read that Will is still supposed to be appearing next week as well.

I still don't get the point of killing off Adrienne if they still wanted to keep Wally Kurth and Judi Evans together. Now you've just gotten rid of the chance to use any flashbacks. And Bonnie is so not Bonnie anymore. I mean she's way more tolerable now but she's totally nothing like Bonnie anymore. She's basically turning into Adrienne.

    • BLQ is having second thoughts regarding putting her baby up for adoption. Chase is upset he can't tell Dante. So both are putting this on at lulus feet. Saying she is holding it over them. Lulu is doing none of this. 
    • Yes she absolutely was involved in that story which seems to have gone nowhere.  She didn't start to remove herself from the writing until 1973.
    • Y'all are bringing back great memories of AMC 2.0 for me.  I haven't thought about it and the new characters in so long, well since it aired, and I plan to go re-watch it now. When AMC ended, I finally came to peace with it and accepted that I will never watch an hour of a TV show daily in my life again... something that I had been doing since I was 6-7 years old. I was starting a new career, relationship, and chapter in life when AMC 2.0 came out.  I found a way to watch it, but things felt differently for me at the time and when it was so short-lived and gone, it became such a distant memory, sadly.
    • That's a great point. I wish the writing could find those nuances.
    • After all Lulu's been through with her coma and missing years I can get her being on the sensitive side especially when talking to her mother.  I was thinking it was more a culmination of everything than just this one particular problem. 
    • I see her moral dilemma, too, and I don't think Lulu was out of line. I just felt it was overboard for her to break down in tears over her dilemma.
    • I also think the fact Lulu chose abortion and Brook Lynn chose to give a baby up for adoption instead when they were in similar situations adds another layer to this.  The writing doesn't really state this, but I can see Lulu slightly spiraling about thinking she could have an adult child out there if she made a different choice.  Both woman made the right choices for themselves at the time, but I can see both making parallels to their decisions.
    • SO good!  I agree. Classic soap opera and it was a cliffhanger I've been craving for weeks now.  First time in a while that I can't wait for tomorrow's episode!
    • -- I was OK with the music. I think the first 5 minutes of the first episode spoiled us -- we really thought we were going to get "real music" a lot more often. Instead, we got some budget money for the opening scene, and that was it. -- I'd like music to be used more often, but I'll put that on production and not on the musicc supervisor. I think they've intentionally dialed down the music on this show. -- Editing? I still have major problems with it. This episode was SO good, but almost every fade to commercial was off or bad. I just don't get it. That, too, is intentional, but I have no idea what they're going for. It isn't working.
