Jack reading Gwen to filth was really good. Matt did a great job in those scenes. Jack to Gwen-''You covered yourself in middle class respectability.'' So you could sell drugs''. I do wonder how someone who's autistic. Would react. To the situation Theo's in? But we will not be getting that at all.

Finally.  I've been waiting for Jack to wake up about Gwen, but you would think he would have had that reaction over the Abby stuff instead.

Is Theo still autistic on the show?  I haven't heard it mentioned in ages.  Much like Phillip's missing leg it does not seem to be in Days cannon anymore.   Although that would be very interesting showing him deal with it.

Forgotten.

And he'll just go back to South Africa with Claire like nothing happened, which is stupid. I get they want to try to give characters a happy ending, but after being in love with one person for so long, for them to immediately fall in love with someone else right when they're leaving town really does screw up the characters, if you ask me. If Theo was so much in love with Ciara, why would he go off with Claire so easily?

They did the same thing when Paul left.

I hope they play it like Theo acting like a mature adult and realizing it's over and just wanting Ciara to be happy.   There was no development of this current Theo/Ciara stuff, so I am okay with them just letting him go.  Although it would make sense for Theo to fight for her or, you know, at least keep Theo on the show.  I assume Claire is going with him as a friend not anything more. 

Paul was paralyzed and I'd like to think he was just over Sonny/Will not realizing he was always the better choice.  He met a new guy like 3 seconds later, so hopefully he knows his worth now.

Ben and Ciara's schmoopfest aside, I really liked most of the scenes in today's episode. Xander and Gwen were the highlight for me, but I also thought Sal Stowers did a terrific job with her monologues about why she doesn't trust her Aunt Paulina. We were complaining just the other day that it seemed out-of-character for Lani to hold this grudge against her aunt, so I have to give them credit for slowing down and giving the backstory (which Lani desperately needs, since she tends to be an underdeveloped character, as a lot of black characters on predominantly white-written soaps often are).

I meant to come in here and post that about Lani.  It was so odd to me she was so angry at Paulina and we actually got a reason.  It may have helped if Lani wasn't so happy to see her in the beginning and so cool with her being with her dad, but we got a reason.  And SS did a good job with those scenes.

I just got caught up on the week and man... I'm bored. It's crazy because lately I can't wait to get home to watch GH, yet with DAYS it took me all week to work up the motivation to watch anything even after a 2-week break from the show. The Ben/Ciara stuff just kills any interest I have in watching, even though I fast forward their scenes. Even outside of their scenes, every character is talking about them. I fast forward that crap too. I skipped Thursday's episode in its entirety, besides the first couple Tripp/Chanel scenes, because the entire episode seemed to revolve around Ben/Ciara. I just can't do it. I accidentally caught two seconds of one of their scenes and almost vomited. I did like seeing Theo's hair down as I FF'd through his scenes, lol.

Tripp and Chanel did have some chem, but I'm here for Allie/Chanel. Honestly I'd love to see the three of them become a "throuple" though I'm sure the Facebook Karens would throw a fit.

Sami/EJ/Lucas is the most interesting story to me at the moment, but now Sami is gone, so... yeah. What a shame. So odd that she's gone before Johnny showed up. I'm still liking Dan F. as EJ. Please tell me Lucas isn't going to the backburner now that Sami's gone.

Jake and Gabi just don't appeal to me, though I did find the Jake/Ava scenes interesting. I also like Ava and Nicole's friendship but I'm not here for a triangle with Rafe - he's no prize and I don't want to see him with either woman, especially my Nicole.

Thank god Xander was on Friday. I'd rather watch Paul Telfer read the phonebook than sit through 75% of this week's scenes.

    • I thought I had stopped & then I saw this post from you. To be clear I said I was wrong. I have not made an attempt at any backpedaling. There is literally no place to back pedal to. I did 3 things. I deleted. i apologized. I said I was wrong, egregiously so. 
    • I think bringing Dano back to OLTL as her original character Gretel/Rae was a last minute thing because P & G wouldn't let ABC use the Felicia character. So even though she had ties to OLTL from back in the day, she just didn't fit into the OLTL of the late 90s/early 00s.. nor did she really fit into the other soaps at ABC either. 
    • I don't think they were the biggest factor, but I do think there's a specific style to Dano's work that wasn't helped by how pointless her character often felt (and later on the various writers clearly saw the character as a joke).
    • I think Evie came in mid 1976 after Rita broke up with Tim because she realized she was leading him on.  And Evie became upset with Rita because she didn't tell her that she had previously dated Tim before she came to town.
    • Please stop, you were wrong, and you know it, now you're trying to back pedal. You even got called out by the DAYS actors/actresses on Twitter for that sh*t. It was disgusting and vile and IMO the family should have taken action against you It was clear the general public did not know about his illness and it was NOT your place to "spill the beans" just because you run a Facebook group, period! TBH IMO @Errol should have banned you ages ago Donna 
    • Who went bowling? JFP & Anna? Is there any more to this?  
    • Another character driven show with interconnecting plots that make sense. I like that we go from one character, like Sarah, learning that EJ wants to buy the hospital, casually mentioning it to Xander who now has that intel. The only down today was not seeing Steve and Shawn breaking into the lab. I wonder if Dr Poofy Hair will inform EJ about Xander's call. I loved Abe talking to Chanel about losing Isaac and giving her comfort. And helping her voice her fears about Johnny. Kayla standing up to EJ is great. Kayla, freed from Ron, has been great. I am loving all her air time. And Sarah telling her that EJ must be up to something if he wants the hospital is very smart. She would probably clue in to the sepsis research being the big thing if she wasn't choking to death. I assume Felicity messed up the scones and dropped in cleaning fluid or something. Sarah said it tasted weird. They are never getting that honeymoon, are they? Xander has no clue what job Johnny can do. Johnny knows this too. Xander wants to legitimize his takeover by hiring a Dimera. Johnny wants to stick it to EJ. The honesty is refreshing. I want to like Cat and Chad but they are just so awkward. And none of their scenes work for me. Marlena and EJ was very good. I like her wanting to help him but also scared to death for Belle. Makes perfect sense that she is conflicted. I also liked her softly asking Johnny if he needed her to stay once EJ walked in. Ron never cared about this relationship either, but now she is acting like his granny.
    • Sorry, catching up, and the bolded part, yes! Should have been sued by DH's family for that nasty sh*t too   Anywho, back to the show, Kristina is freaking nuts, she needs to be committed ASAP
    • Angry Dante was hot; sorry, but I'm not going to pretend it wasn't awesome seeing Dominic Zamprogna act his ass off in a way that was not crying.
