I get your rationalization totally, but at the same token, it was poorly executed. To me, it just felt like the writers don't want to write things with an ounce of substance as they have a deadline or something.

 

I wondered about his age too as I am definitely seeing cognitive decline as compared to how I saw him last year.

When Bill Hayes departs from this mortal coil -- not IF, but WHEN -- DAYS better do right by him, by SSH, by Doug and Julie and their generations of fans, and give him the right and proper send-off that he deserves.  Next to Tom and Alice Horton, Doug and Julie Williams, and Bill and Susan Seaforth Hayes, are the living, breathing embodiment of everything that Ted and Betty Corday built their show on.  I don't gaf if it breaks the show's budget, or interferes with Ron Carlivati adding to his spank bank or getting in more "Golden Girls" or KNOTS LANDING references where they don't belong.  Do right by the Hayeses and the fans, or they deserve to be cancelled.

I'm glad Johnny's the next 'devil.' I was hoping (if anyone) it would be Abby or Kayla but he gets the job done too. He's charming and weaselly so he can be devilish without sounding alarms. I'm sure the characters will be lobotomized either way, but I digress...

I worry a bit. The guaranteed homoeroticism is something I'm all for but I don't need Ron conflating gay/bi/fluid with Satanic, even for entertainment. Just write it for what it is.

That said I'm looking forward to this. Just no more MarDevil. Stay in 1995 please.

Johnny was trying to cough and sneeze the devil out of his system lol.

Sami looks so pathetic crying over how much she loves and misses EJ even when she's convinced that he's the one who kidnapped her. 

Ben and Ciara never leave their bed. How are they going to raise a baby in that little room?

    • I thought today was still good. Leo is always awful, but the characters treating him like he's a plague feeds my soul. Rafe in particular had been very passive about him, but today was wonderful seeing him put Leo on notice. I really think it's being written that Javi is going to have to eventually take the blinders off and see Leo for who he really is. Them having sex on Gabi's desk made me want to explode. Roman taking in stray Doug was nice to see. And the mention of Frankie and Max was unexpected, but good to know they're at least being thought of. Tate being petty and a bit vindictive by going back to Sophia's as soon as he saw Doug with Holly was entertaining for me. I think I actually like Tate the most out of all of them because he's so damn messy.  Is Holly about to be kidnapped? Her first time?
    • That would have saved the Anita singing segment -- having her by herself, singing quietly and reflectively. Belting it out like she was in church did not work. The black screens fade at the end was a mistake. BTG insists on being different with these fades for the sake of being different, and it's not working.   I thought all of that was just fine. Worked for me.   I'm going to disagree with this. Martin hasn't had many scenes with his parents, but he's been around family A LOT -- and that's what matters. We also know Martin is someone with a hair trigger response. He can be very emotional when discussing an issue before getting to the logic and reason of it all.  
    • My view of Evan is that he's smart but not as smart as he thinks he is, not a good guy but not an entirely bad guy - he's a lot of things, the show never quite knowing what to do with them. I never saw him as Iris' follower because Iris always seemed a bit in over her head from the start. 
    • She was the Town Historian, who knew a bit too much about Brandon and the infamous cottage.  SF was still a pretty normal place at that time, with Nola and Reva being the most outrageous citizens....seems that Carrie Pipper would have stood out a bit more for people.

    • Yes, I need to dot hat. Also on my list talking to the person I got these files from since they clearly have a mess, in terms of dates being wrong. And, unfortunately finding one date wrong, automatically means more are wrong, too. 
    • I'm hoping that it doesn't happen. If the show keeps putting out good performance and story it will be hard to shut it out. Daphnee, Trisha, Ambyr and Colby are earning nominations without question.
    • Speaking of correcting dates, since you mentioned it above, why don't you go back to your Saturday post and edit it and replace your wording of "DAYS Ruth Buzzi 11-2-83"  with "DAYS Ruth Buzzi 11-1-83" and add a note that the video has the wrong date of 11/2/83 on it, and that the video is actually 11/1/83.
