I always liked Greta, bad stories and all. I don't expect we'll be seeing her though. I will be both surprised and unsurprised if they get through this without Kristian though. Using Gina this way is classic Ron Carlivati, which he learned from Frank V. at GH and OLTL; gamble that you can get or keep an actor, write the story anyway and then roll the dice.

I thought this was really weird, too.  I get that Ben and maybe a newer audience knows Kate and not Chelsea, but for all the history they're dropping for "Beyond Salem," this made no sense.

I'm nostalgic about Greta . . . when I first started watching "Days," the Greta/Eric/Nicole/Lucas quad was front burner and then I really loved Austin & Greta (and Brandon & Sami) together . . . I hated when they moved Brandon and Greta into the J&J story and was super bummed that Peter Brash & Paula Cwikly not only immediately wrote Austin & Greta out, but that they didn't have them leave together (this was when Austin & Nicole were almost a thing, which I never liked until AP's 2005 return).

Episode 3

It was the best episode so far. Are they filming the show differently? It looks different visually and more appealing. The direction by Noel Maxam was great today. Loved the closeups. 

The Will and Sonny shower scene was smoking hot!  The chemistry was oozing out. The kiss...Jesus Christ!!!  And we got a real close-up of it. Chandler and Zach's bodies....DAMN!!! What hunks!! Too bad Leo had to ruin it. I had to laugh at Leo saying to Sonny.. It's not like I haven't seen it before while grabbing Will's cock from behind in the shower. I wish Sonny and Will shower scene had been longer without Leo.

More Leo one liners...flirting with ever guy and his one liner about how hot Chad's ass was....yes he said ass. 

Loved seeing Eileen Davidson as Kristen!  The ending was great!

 

I'm guessing episode 4 is where Will, Sonny and Chad become drag queens to find the missing jewel?

I also wish that they gave us a few more seconds of Sonny and Will alone in the shower ether before Leo came in or after he got kicked out, that did seem too short, but overall was hot. Zach and Chandler have the chemistry. 

 

Leo joining was still funny and enjoyable. There is NO way regular DAYS would have been allowed to have 3 gay men in a shower at once and Leo make a comment alluding to Will having a large cock at 1pm in the afternoon.

I just saw this interview this morning. Chandler Massey's smile is so hot! I think he smiled through the whole interview. The little innocent flirting with Chandler was cute!

Agree on everything. 

And the visual of Leo grabbing Will's cock. Not happening on main show.

    • Agnes had written for Bernard Grant for many years on TGL as well as Ernest Graves and Joe Gallison,Doris Belack,Robert Milli,and  Antony Ponzini at AW. So she would probably gravitate to writing a role with an actor in mind or choosing someone she had written for before who she knew could deliver.
    • Once Johnny Dallas' cut himself off from Laurie Ann Karr and their son, and once Laurie successfully recovered from her mental problems, she wanted a new, fresh, and healthy start for the next chapter of her life. She legally reverted her name and changed John Victor's  surname to Karr. After moving to the country (when Teri  Keane was dropped from the show), Bill and Martha Marceau legally adopted Jennifer, the baby girl whom they had earlier taken in when the child's biological mother, Taffy Simms (and other bio family members) proved to be unfit to raise her. Jennifer legally and emotionally became a Marceau, and gave that name to her own daughter, whom Jennifer birthed through surrogacy as a single parent. Et...voila! The Karr and Marceau legacies live on.

    • 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.
