Did Colin have beef with Marlena? I remember some of the suspects in his “murder” but she wasn’t one of them.

I don't remember Colin and Marlena ever interacting. Colin is such a random and obscure character to bring back.

Colin Murphy was Bo's cousin. Him and Jennifer first met in Africa and had a romance which ended badly. Colin was loyal to Dimera family and worked for Tony/Andre during 2000's. Raymond Grant, who was the executor of Stefano's estate had given Colin a silver bullet with instructions to kill Bo. Larry Welch obtained dirt on Colin blackmailing him to work for him now and to get rid of Bo. Colin was thought to be shot and killed but he was very much alive with the other survivors on New Salem. He was last seen and presumed to be lost at sea.

Colin also had an affair with Nicole. When she was married to Victor.

Is Ron just pulling names out of a hat when he decides who to bring back? You know he's probably patting himself on the back thinking this is a great nod to history, when really a lot of viewers - especially those who aren't online - are saying "who?"

I guess I should be glad that they're not just going the usual route and trotting out Orpheus for his annual appearance.

I think the issue is that Colin does sound more interesting and memorable on paper than he was on the show - so I guess this is a problem with Ron specifically; he likes to give  nods to history (which is sometimes good), but since he's never been a fan of the show he can't really filter who is relevant and not.

 

Oh well, I'm waiting on him to bring on Susan Martin as a rival to Julie. Geriatric love triangle ftw!

 

You know... I wonder if this has anything to do with the whole "can't bring back Peter" thing the show has in place. Colin was involved with Jennifer, so it wouldn't surprise me if Ron went out looking for a Peter substitute in the story.

They really brought Missy back just to dress her in this.

I like the nods to history, but this does kind of prove my point that Laura didn't need to be the one to pay off Gwen's mother when it could have just been Harper, which would have made perfect sense

Add "attractive man willing to queerbait" (which Justin Melvey was doing back then before it was cool) and Boom RC is interested.
But yeah from the posession to this this is 100% what is going on.

The only thing about Colin is that he had strong ties to Andre.  So it's possible Colin would be involved if Andre is which ugh......... I am sure Marlena and Colin shared scenes though.  He was a Dr. I believe.  I wonder who they would get to play him.  Justin Melvey has like 1 credit since 2005 so I am not sure he still acts.

I don't think we need to know why the Devil came back to Marlena.  It already explained it and it was enough for me.  The initial exorcism didnt take and they had unfinished business.  That is not on the top of my list of things that need to be explained to me further about this whole story lol.

Seriously, Jennifer's outfit was awful.  The one thing about Jen is I generally thought she dressed cute.  Maybe if we saw the full outfit with the cut of the dress and shoes it would be better?  Agree with those about her hair though.  It looks good.

So we're never going to actually find out what happened in that hotel room to kill off long standing character Laura are we? It's crazy to me that Jen got over Gwen killing her mom in record time and wants Jack to make up with her.

Has there been any casting news on Sarah? Or will we get a nice surprise return?

Ava did the best thing she's ever done as a character at the end of today's episode 😂😂

Colin Murphy? 
 

What next? Shawn and Belle have to deal with a back from the dead Willow Stark instead of Jan? Phillip returns married to Mogan Hollingsworth? Xander and Gwen find Sarah on the island canoodling in the arms of Bart Beiderbecke?

To be fair... Bart is actually a memorable character and one of the more recognizable DiMera henchmen, so that's a no.

 

I'd say Ron should go digging in the Anderson family tree for pure randomness.

Oh great dumb Lucas got Bullinda Chinashop involved in this mess. 

Jake and Gabi are so boring.

You would think Chloe would've learned not to talk about other peoples secrets where they were overhead before.

I liked Morgan/Phillip lol🤣.  I honestly didn't mind Morgan period.  I know she was pushed because the actress was sleeping with someone important, but I liked her.

Absolutely thought Morgan and Willow Stark were female equivalents of Daniel or Rafe lol.

I think DAYS should absolutely bring Laura back. Say that Gwen and/or someone else, maybe Vivian had her death faked and had her kidnapped. Bring back Jaime Lyn Bauer or Susan Flannery or recast with a soap vet.

Vivian helping Laura fake her own death would make sense since both were in the same mental hospital in the mid 90s, one helped the other when there was a fire at the institution (can’t recall who helped whom), and they both hate Kate.
