I enjoyed today's show. The best part of it for me was actually Cam/Esme. Avery Pohl is doing a good job as Esme, I like the scenes where she was talking to Cam about the sadness in her family and the drama that they had. It was interesting. Even Joss was being more sympathetic towards her today. I do wonder who she will end up drugging/who will get drugged at the cabin.

I also liked seeing Spencer/Trina interact again today. I think they will definitely get closer again once he starts working at the gallery. NC looks like he's been working out more. 

And I even liked Sonny/Carly's scenes today. I do feel like Sonny answered Carly as honestly as he could about his feelings for Nina. He has them, but I also think he wants to keep his family intact with Carly and wishes he didn't have to deal with his feelings for Nina.

Yeah, never again do I want to hear anyone complain (even in jest) that Claire Labine's GH was too depressing to watch.  Trust me, her GH wasn't nearly as depressing as mourning three or four deaths in a row.

I actually liked the Sprina/Ava scenes today. What struck me in particular was when Spencer and Ava were talking about Trina - Spencer actually dropped his guard around Ava and was quite honest about how he had let Trina down.

Spencer and Ava may hate each other’s guts, but it was really nice to see them actually connect over Trina. I think it has been mentioned somewhere upthread, but it does seem like, in a way, that Ava is lowkey rooting for Sprina to happen (and indeed seems to be setting things up that way).

Ava is totally team Sprina! I liked the scenes yesterday too. I hope we'll actually get to see Spencer and Trina working together since this story has been moving at a snail's pace lately. I also liked Cameron and Esme kind of bonding over their troubled pasts. Esme seems to like the idea of angry Cam, haha. I'm looking forward to Esme drugging someone. I'm ready for some mess to happen with these teens at the cabin. 

Chase should always be carrying a baby in all his scenes. 

I love me some Liz and usually think she has chemistry with everyone, but this stuff with Finn is awful. That kiss in the locker room had me cringing. Zero heat, zero chemistry. Liz doesn't even look interested in him. She would be so much better with Drew (or Chase but he's obviously for Brooklyn and I like them).

I really enjoyed the scenes as well.  Sonny's crime here is the lie.  Carly answered all of his questions when asked and he lied for months.  However, Sonny's struggle is very soapy.  Whether he likes it or not, Sonny's feelings for Nina are genuine.  But he should not go home until that's resolved.

    • Good Morning, this is still funny to me but I totally enjoyed what makes up "DemetriKane" so unnecessary, who cares?!!! Glad you like the Emma Peel derivative story.   
    • Christian Streaty penned today's Day's script. https://www.linkedin.com/in/christian-streaty/
    • Yes, they did.  I still have them.  I think there were three.  AMC and GH as well.
    • Ah okay, thats what I thought. I was hoping I missed the announcement somewhere. Thanks for the clarification.
    • A new day in Salem… and a new day for Days.  I like the way everybody found out and absorbed the news about John’s death, and how they all eventually found their way to Marlena’s to offer their condolences. I’m not particularly sure why they waited until the next day to tell everybody but I don’t really mind it.  We finally got Roman’s perspective! His scenes with Kayla were one of the best parts of today. I’m glad that Roman is thankful for everything that John did for his kids. I agree with posters who said that he should’ve had a scene like this with John, but I’m happy we got this at least.  Julie was used very well today too. She’s definitely the best person for Marlena to have scenes with at the moment. Hopefully, Julie continues to be there for her. And yes, I totally agree with Marlena and Belle sending EJ away when he came to the apartment. I’m curious to see what’s going to happen to his and Belle’s relationship in the aftermath of all this. And, while I enjoyed most of Brady and Kristen’s scenes, I still think the ship has sailed for them. Hopefully, the aftermath of John’s death causes Brady to finally end this thing with her once and for all.  And, I see a lot of people were wearing some kind of shade of purple today.

    • Wow, I love that current and former actors are participating in this. I barely recognize Staci Greason! She looks fine, just very different. But I will be happy to hear anecdotes from her. I shipped RoJohn and Isabella hard back in the day, and I sobbed buckets in my dorm room at college when Izzy B passed. Honestly, I'm interested in everyone's stories. Drake seemed like he was well loved among the cast.
    • When she first appeared, I was sure she was setting Tyrell up for a prank. She was too much of a manic pixie dream girl- I wasn't surprised Tyrell also became suspicious. Now I'm not so sure. If Jessica genuinely likes Tyrell, it seems like a missed opportunity to not have started her out as a bully, then we see her gradually catch feelings for Tyrell.  The McBrides are definitely the "C" family of BTG. They always get last priority. There have been a few times where the Doug/Vanessa/Joey characters reference off screen conversations which seem too important to not show us. Like when Doug thanked Joey for giving him extra time to pay off the loan. When did that happen? Or when we abruptly moved from Vanessa/Joey at Uptown to Vanessa/Doug in the hotel room. The McBrides don't even have their own set - even though Vanessa is a realtor. It's a shame because I am a fan of the characters and actors.

      I am also adjusting to KR as Ted but I feel that AM and MJ had way more chemistry as father and daughter than AM and KR. We saw Eva dream of having a real relationship with MJ's version of Ted for months so it's a bit of a bummer not to have that payoff with the original actor except for those scenes in MJ's last episode.  Something I noticed about Eva today is how she takes genuine delight in being a schemer. As badly as she wants to be a Richardson, she still has so much of her mom in her. It was jarring seeing her earnestly promise to steer clear of Leslie in her scene with Ted, then immediately switch attitudes when her mom showed up.  I'm very surprised with how quickly the accident story has been moving along. I was sure that it would be months if not years before people figured out it was Leslie on the motorcycle, not to mention responsible for the potassium overdose. I'm looking forward to seeing how MVJ and Guza avoid writing Leslie into a corner.  Finally, I have been loving the Articulettes story. Bonita Brisker was just the right amount of OTT - remember Sharon is supposed to be even more angry than Tracy is. If Sharon didn't come in swinging, people would say she fell flat. The way Sharon and Tracy describe the breakup is so Supremes-meet-Original Recipe Destiny's Child. I get the sense that MVJ is re-writing the Return to Love Tour as a roman a clef, and I love it. I'm looking forward to finding out what the secret they share is. If Dante Green is as shady as Berry Gordy was, it's something dark. If/when they go through with the reunion, I expect Dante to show up and claim to own the Articulettes trademark in a Lou Pearlman-esque twist.
