I think BD aged okay. He was never super hot to me just cute and now he's like middle age cute.  LK does look younger than him though.  She never ages.  I think she might look younger than she did in 1995.

 

^^^^^Seriously, who can compete with that?  James Scott is nearly perfect looking.  DF is fine, but I am not wowed.  I think facial hair would help.

I wasn’t all that impressed by new EJ’s debut but time will tell how he fits in. James Scott was a hit right off the bat with his arrival so the shoes will be hard to fill. It’s a bit awkward we on the cusp of a Lumi reunion and doing fine without him tbh.

Xander/PT cracks me up. I loved him all dressed up - complete with a rose in his pocket - waltzing into Basic Black and acting like he works there. He's just fun.

 

This show needs better triangles - Kate/Jake/Gabi and Philip/Chloe/Brady are zzZzz.

 

New EJ was okay. It's hard to tell from one episode. I agree that they need to let him be more scruffy looking, but this show loves making good-looking guys not look good.

This. I am a bit surprised to see many people making definitive statements after one episode.
But then again I really did not like or enjoy JS as EJ - neither the character, not the acting style - so I am not going to be really the best judge. But still... yeesh. Give it time, ya'll, and then you can decide.

I forgot to mention Kate. I’m all for Kate pulling one over on Gabi anytime but this fake blindness subplot feels like a story JER would have done in 2005 or something lol. Hopefully it doesn’t get dragged out given we just had Lucas pretending to be dying.

Totally agree about Philip/Chloe/Brady. Haven't we already seen this story play out a 100 times with these three characters? I sort of feel like the show has a lot of characters that are just played out at this point and need a rest. I could care less about Rafe, Ava, and Nicole. Snoozeville. I love EM as Brady, but I feel like the character needs a break. He just bounces from one woman to the next with no consequences...and it's like...who cares at this point? Chloe is another one that I'm kind of mystified why they keep bringing her back....to be in ANOTHER triangle with Brady? I would rather some of the money for these characters go to bringing back CM as Jennifer and CM as Will as well as bringing in some new blood.

 

I do miss Suzanne Rogers. Has anyone heard an update about her?

 

NuEJ I'm still on the fence with. One episode is hard to judge.

It reminds me of how Hogestyn had that awful haircut for ages until he finally just accepted that his hair was grey. I wonder if BD is in the same situation that he fears that changing his hair will age him.

You know what they say about tall men.

Sigh...EJ should've slept with Will. The story possibilities.

 

 

New EJ is giving Jeffrey Meeks as Craig Montgomery vibes... Shivers....

I can't believe the show let Drake have that awful mullet looking hair until like 1998.  It was about 10 years outdated when he finally cut it.  I remember thinking back then the least believable thing about Days was not devils it was the fact two women were fighting over a man with that awful haircut. lol  I love his silver fox hair.  He looks so much better.

 

I am sure BD could get a better cut.  It looks like he has a fair amount of hair, so someone should be able to figure it out.  I guess the one good thing about the EJ recast is he is nowhere near as smoking hot as JS so the Lucas/Sami/EJ triangle is a little more believable.

    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
    • I need to listen! Forever & a Day was a fun soapy podcast to have available when I walked the dog.
    • A few years ago, Devon and Nick started a charity organization together, I think it's for housing in the community.
    • I’m hoping to start getting to know Vernon better this month. He’s really only been a bunch of noble and good tropes so far. I don’t want him to be taken down the way Ted has been, but it seems he was a long-running Senator and no matter what party you are, lasting longer than twenty years means you’re looking out for you (and not who you’re supposed to be looking out for) most of all. I want to get to know both Vernon and Anita beyond their Dupree posturing. Clifton Davis can sleepwalk handling the kind of material Christopher Bernau and David Lewis handled and I’d like to see more than just a saint.
    • I thought Emily/Hal was a really interesting pairing. And I think KMH played that version of Emily very well! It might not have been what people wanted from Emily, and the writing got pretty gross at the end, but I thought she embodied that character effectively.
