Matt brings NOTHING. Again, I have zero issues with those who follow their religion, but living in to the point of feeling above others and using it as a way to avoid accepting someone? Nope. That isn't for me.

Julie, darling, YOU'RE MARRIED! It's clear you're not happy with it, because you want to talk about hooking up with your male roommates, and it's uncomfortable. Lord... her husband shows up and all she wants to talk about is Jamie this and Jamie that.

I did crack up at Matt telling Julie they never would have had a relationship and shutting her down.

The Julie/Jamie stuff is so cringey and awkward I wondered if the show edited it to make it seem worse.  Not defending Julie, but I couldn't believe how much she was talking about Jamie to her husband and then her husband got furious over a spotify playlist?  I honestly am not understanding this situation at all.  I mean, Jamie is a good looking guy.............but he's not exactly the hottie he was in 2000 lol.

I am sure Kelly is a lovely person and someone who is delightful to spend time with in real life, but she is such a downer on the show and I think she is bringing even less than Matt.   Everything makes her uncomfortable and she has one foot out the door.  It looks like she may be getting more focus soon, but at this point she's a snooze.

Honestly, I'd go for Jamie now in comparison to 2000; much more like type now than then. I think Jamie's actions act up when he's drinking, and TPTB are trying to glaze over that fact to see a narrative. But yeah, that phone call was over a damn playlist? SMFH.

Oh, see, I don't get that from Kelley. I just think she's over Julie's bullsh!t, and has been since that night she and Melissa overheard her in the hot tub. I think that tuned her out of a experience a bit. I think she's enjoyed reconnecting with her roommates, but being around Julie has drained her (and, admittedly, I'd be drained, too).

Yeah, it doesn't seem like Jamie's into most of the time, but then him and Julie are hanging out and being weird.  It might be due to drinking on his part.  

With Julie's husband reacting that severely to a playlist leads me to believe her talking about Jamie 24/7 to him was edited a bit.  I assumed she talked about him quite a bit, but also spoke about the other roommates and MTV just edited that out.

As far as Kelley-she was one of my faves in the OG season.  She may be over it, but she doesn't partake in a lot of the activities and she might as well go home.  It seems like she is almost too into her image and how she's being seen to act real.

Melissa is done with the housemates and the shenanigans, LOL.

Darling... if my husband/spouse/partner ever told me I had a hall pass I would be questioning their dynamic and their perspective. Because, if I'm with you, I do not need nor want no Goddamn hall pass.

IF YOU STEAL MY SUNSHINE! SUNSHINNNNNEEEEEEEE!!!!!

Come on be my baby, tonight! Iconic. A true moment. I didn't even watched the original season, and it is still something I know.

Poor Kelley going through what she's gone through. But damn... Julie gotta push boundaries.

I think it's clear Kelley is bouncing next episode ahead of the final day together. It's sad. But I think she just has anxiety and is reminded of her first season.

I don't even understand what Julie is trying to do.  She just looks like an insane person.  The husband stuff is weird. 

I still don't really understand why Kelley is having such bad anxiety.  I get Julie is a lot, but when they played back the clips it looked like the other roommates were engaging in the conversation with Julie about porn or whatever and weren't offended.  Kelley has the absolute right to say those conversations cross her boundaries and the appropriate response from Julie would have been to respect those boundaries, but I don't understand why Kelley is freaking out so bad.  It's only a week.  She was on reality tv, she did an MTV challenge and her husband's an actor.  I understand anxiety is very serious, but (unless we are not getting the full story) Kelley has skipped out on numerous cast events, nights out, etc and picks and chooses what she wants to do.  If we are being honest, Kelley didn't bring much to the table in her OG season and I don't think I would have missed her on this if she just passed on coming back.  I remember Kelley being my favorite in her OG season, but now I am not sure why lol. 

I feel bad ragging on Kelley, but I don't really understand what her problem is or why it's so severe she can't stay an extra day.  I guess it might be an editing problem, but even with Julie being an absolute nut it seems like the cast is chilling and getting along 95% off the time.  I mean was MTV planning to spring the ex Peter on her or something?

Editing. Kelly came out and said she left bc Julie harassed her. Julie made the experience unbearable

"This was a pattern of menacing behavior that seemed to be escalating," says Wolf, describing an incident where a female cast member allegedly "screamed" in her face and other "gross and uncomfortable" situations.

Wow! I'm two episodes behind. 

So they cleverly edited this show. It just made no sense why Kelly was leaving but now it does and why she didn't participate in a lot of group activities.

Thanks!  This paints a very different picture.  I think this is footage they needed to show.  As a viewer who really liked Kelley, I was thinking she was freaking out about something that wasn't that big of a deal-and that the other castmates didn't seem to mind regarding Julie.  And I thought Kelley was picking and choosing what excursions she went on when she was actually gone and it looked like she just left a day early lol.

I would put Julie on a challenge honestly.  To me she's more suited for that show than this reunion.

    • Speculation about Missy Reeves' potential evolution on basic civil rights doesn’t change my opinion of her. My view is shaped entirely by her public social media presence—which I find unpalatable—and I have no interest in learning more beyond that. I simply liked Jennifer’s hair and dress. That’s as far as my admiration goes.

    • Cheryl was gone before Lemay came back but I agree with your thinking that he would rather a character from a family he introduced to the show than a family he did not originate.  I remember reading somewhere in the early 90's probably after DS left as writer, their was an either a writer or a producer who made a comment that their intent was bring the McKinnon family back to AW.  Would have made sense for the newer viewers from the 80's.  Much like Lemay's attempt to bring the Frames back from his writing in the 70's in his 1988 return
    • DePriest left in January 1988. According to the AWHP, Rose last appeared nearly a year before in February 1987 while both Sara and Peggy appeared as late as October 1987.
    • Annie was not brought in as an antagonist for Reva. Reva wasn’t even on the canvas when Annie first appeared in late 1994. 
    • The speculation……….very entertaining. 
    • I had forgotten that several Days stars came out strong against Melissa. Good for them!
    • That would have made sense. Did all these characters get dropped when DePriest left or had they already been dropped?
    • The other issue with Missy: in June 2020, she "liked" some social media posts by Candace Owens -- things Candace said that were against Black Lives Matter.  That is described here https://tvline.com/news/melissa-reeves-racism-days-of-our-lives-instagram-controversy-2894568/ I don't know if that was ever resolved.
    • She appeared onscreen not long after Rose Livingston and Sara Montaigne, and we found out that Sara was Rose's estranged daughter. I wonder whether Peggy might have been part of that family group -- or else they were just juggling a few different potential mysteries so that they could develop whatever seemed to be getting the best response from the audience. They didn't do anything much with Rose and Sara really either. Maybe Rose would have become more prominent if Rachel and Mac had split up over Mitch, or if Sara had really flourished. In some ways I can picture Cheryl being affected by MJ's prostitution similarly to how Josie was distressed by finding out about Sharlene. But I can also see that Josie as a Frame being involved with Matthew would have different stakes for Rachel and Sharlene than Cheryl being involved with Scott. I do think the solution for Cheryl would have had to be a badder boy than Scott -- either a real bad boy who would do her wrong, or the kind of bad boy (not Chad!!!) who is essentially misunderstood and other people just don't understand. Cheryl would also have been better off with some friends her own age. Matthew and Josie benefited a bit from having other teenagers to interact with.
