I skipped through half of today's episode but I thought the scenes with Paulina and her mother were a lot of fun. Looking forward to more. I'm glad that they're diving right into Lani's maternity. Besides that I just watched Lani/Abe and Xander/Gwen/Jack.

Theo: How can you love a guy who killed three people?

Ciara: he was insane when he did those things...I love the man that he was before he got sick and the man he became after he got better.

She didn't know him right before the crimes. Oh Carolyn Culliton.... I know this is Ron hack job..but pleassseeeee

And all the 227 jabs during the Jackee and Marla scenes...I was waiting for them to say they had relatives named Rose and Pearl.

Why does EJ know or care about Ben and Ciara getting their "happily ever after"? Does he even know Ben and Ciara?

I did enjoy watching Gabi and Ava trade bitchy barbs at each other, however. TB is so much better when she gets to show that hard edge.

 I am just repeating what everyone else has said better already at this point, but boy would the story be a lot more acceptable if it wasn't completely and blindly boosted by all corners.

If more characters were ambivalent about it and STILL gave it the stink eye. Even even if Ciara was feeling guilty at times about loving him but "I can't help it". 
Instead it is Ben worshipping and everyone cheering for them and Ciara defending him and it loses any rooting value. It is writing Eve as the *villain*. Etc.
If you are going to go there, make it a shades-of-grey story. Telling us how much we should root for them is just insulting.

Thank you. This was ridiculous. EJ has zero reason to care about Ciara and Ben, individually or together. There is NO reason why he would care about their reunion. There was no reason for EJ to even mention them. Stupid stupid stupid.

Oh god, we're back to Nicole crying all the time. I cringed when Rafe said "Dukey!!!!"

I actually laughed out loud when Gabi referred to Jake/Kate as Jake "visiting the old folks' home."

I'm enjoying Big Mama Marla Gibbs.

 

Ha! It's been my signature for years and I've just never bothered changing it. I just remember laughing my ass off when he did that interview because it was the most ridiculous quote ever.

SORASed Johnny really hit the ground running today. I'm all for a love quadrangle where Chanel is torn between Allie and her twin brother. And Dan Feuerriegel is really growing on me as EJ; I liked his scenes both with Johnny and with John (whose wordless reaction to EJ's protests was fantastic). 

The only thing I didn't like about the episode is how stupid are Marlena, John, and Allie to believe that those "leave me alone" text messages actually came from Sami.

Part of me was hoping for Johnny to be a bad boy, chip off the old block, just like EJ, etc., but this career path/ambition that he has does sound a little interesting.

He and Chanel did seem to have good chemistry as well.

LOL. It’d far more interesting if we actually got stories of DiMera and Titan in competition but instead all we ever get is lame old “Who is going to run Titan” and “Who is going to run to run DiMera” stories repeated over and over again. Like Spaulding on GL back in the day, I would have long been sold my shares over constant CEO turnover and their complete lack of experience some of them bring to the table.

    • Eddie has begun uploading the 1990 episodes. I'm so happy about that. I was mindfully taking a break till there's plenty of episodes I can binge watch when I feel like it. Now that 1989 is complete... I can't wait to press play on February 1989 and resume where I left off.

      Me when someone asks me to be proper and demure. 
    • This is just a guess but I feel like the fact that they keep mentioning her dead husband is for a reason. We know Martin has a secret that likely involved someone dying. Martin's victim could be Alan which Leslie/Dana either knows about or finds out and she uses that to blackmail the family into letting her crimes slide.  
    • Just thinking how the Ruth/Leticia guest spot really cemented how Days had changed. Stunt casting with a campy/comedy character in a 'wacky' storyline was something that a few years previously would have been completely out of place on Days (and most other soaps for that matter).
    • I am interested to see how they handle Leslie/Dana down the road. If she continues in this path, it would be unrealistic to have her around. Like other shows have done this with a 'villian' character and ended up with people looking stupid putting up with someone they detest. Another thought-could they be building up to a murder story? Maybe Les/Dan will be left in a coma and we will have a whodunit with several characters as suspect. It would also be a chance to redeem her I wonder how long the show will go w/o resorting to soap cliche stories-twins,switched at birth, murder mystery, long lost child etc
    • Yeah, Martin really did make me laugh when him and Smitty jumped up to drag Leslie out. I am interested in seeing how this fallout will impact his storyline as well. Especially since he is so protective regarding his family/family's image. I am interested in seeing how he will interact with Eva for the time being, they did have a warmer interaction earlier on once they met. But he seems to have doubts about her possibly being Ted's right now. I wonder how long it might take for him to come around with her. I could see the younger generation warming up to her quicker than the older ones. Though of course I think there will be anger/tension for a while regarding the reveal and her role in it. Perhaps Naomi/Chelsea will ease up on Eva first then eventually Martin/Kat might down the line. I really do love Nicole. I'm glad that DD is playing her. She really is the heart of the family and also agree the show. She is so easy to root for and I'm looking forward to seeing how things work out for her. I am enjoying the development of most of the characters on this show. I enjoy most of them including Bill with his trifling self lol. I do feel that Bill's love for his daughters is genuine and that gives him some depth. A few of the characters I don't care for that much (like Bill, Ashley, Vanessa). I wasn't too big on Andre at first, but I am warming up more to him as the actor is settling into the role. I like most of the characters on this show. Also, I am interested in seeing what happens if Eva indeed goes and lives with the new doctor that was introduced. I could see this adding another layer to her story, maybe she will become more vixen-ish, on what type of relationship they end up having. And/or maybe she will end up becoming more hardened as she deals with being an outcast, especially if she falls out with Leslie as well. I think that AM will do a good job of showcasing the different layers of this character as she deals with the fallout of the affair/paternity reveal.

      Got another sad news from the Bahamian community (not a celebrity)  https://www.instagram.com/p/DJMSrYCgyes/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== Former Bahamian Senate President J Henry Bostwick, Husband of former 1st Bahamian Female Cabinet Minister Dame Janet Bostwick is dead yesterday on his 86th birthday.    Thanks and for those who've aren't familiar with the talk shows in The Bahamas on this thread here, his talk show named The Freedom March with Dr Rodney Moncur that airs on ILTV and The Beat 103.5 FM Nassau every weekday afternoons. IIRC, he suffered a illness before he died.  Here's the link for his final taping of the show before his death: https://ewnews.com/this-is-powerful-rodney-moncurs-final-sign-off/
    • (video, sound up) https://www.instagram.com/p/DIopBYDOGwy/ April 19, 2025 theonlydaphneeduplaix I’m not a fan of running. I’m not a fan of biking. So instead, I do what I love to get me revved up!!! . What that 20 minute warm up always looks like for me. What do you love that gets your body moving? LET’S GO!!!!!!! #DanceItOut #NoExcuses #FitOverFourty #TakeYourBodyBack #FindWhatGetsYouMoving     .           .
    • One thing I thought about is if Hayley will have a reaction to Bill threatening to kidnap and sell a baby. That's another level of viciousness and with her just having thought she was pregnant it might make her feel some type of way.
