The scenes they had today you could tell how much still loved Nancy even though supposedly cheating on her. 

Didn't Craig say he wasn't cheating on Nancy with another woman when asked?

Yet when Chloe said I know you'd never cheat on Nancy... Craig made this face because Chloe didn't specifically say a woman.

I am just not sure THIS is the couple to tell the story with.  They already have a story that is interesting.  I don't think I need more on this.  This couple always seemed very much in love and attracted to one another.   I literally have no problem with Craig being gay, but it actually needs to add up and thus far it hasn't.

And also this kinda puts the show into criticism because Nancy is already an "unconventional" lead so of course hottie Craig would cheat on her.

James Scott played EJ kind of fluid when he first came on. I remember EJ at the police station flirting with a male officer to get him to uncuff him from the chair. There were some other scenes but they never went very far with it.

With Dan in the role and his chemistry with the cast I'd be down for bi/fluid EJ.

I wasn't regularly watching during the era, but I can picture smirking Will (before I knew he did it all the time) in EJ's office, and things getting pretty homoerotic between them. It would have worked a lot better than EJ and Abby.

You are conveying this absolutely perfectly. I have been ranting about it in the spoiler section and you succinctly and calmly exposed the various things that are problematic about this: the fact this obviously came to their mind because KS is gay, the fact Nancy/Craig are a particular bad couple to do this to and the fact RC will make a joke out of it.

 

This was discussed as soon as he was cast actually.
His instagram had a lot of content that indicated, say, sympathies for arguments usually made by Trump supporters and he follows all the big figures from MAGA world.
Not sure if something new has come up since.

I really didn't need to see Johnny sucking the blood off his finger after Gabi slapped him. WTF

 I love Carson but not a fan of JoDevil. The scenes with Allie were good. 

I love Paulina and I'd love to see her go after some of the DiMera fortune. Give me that storyline. I laughed when she told Chanel to stay out of grown folks business.

Kristen waving a gun around is so tired. 

I'm really enjoying Abby right now. Finally who character who gets to be smart.

I hate Rafe. He acts like Ava is so awful when he's the one who keeps cheating.

Chanel (and Paulina) going after the DiMera money will be fun.

Tripp's reactions to Paulina made me laugh. He's just kind of like, "huh? Lady you crazy." 

It doesn't get much worse than JoDevil with Gabi. They really possessed Johnny just so he could be extra horny and want to take over DiMera. Awful, awful, awful.

I don't get why Rafe doesn't just break up with Ava?  He's already on to her game, so what difference does it make if he dumps her?  I totally tune out in their scenes so maybe I missing some sort of nuance to their relationship that makes this charade between them make sense.

    • Also, isn’t there supposed to be a storyline with Mariah and Tessa? Mariah cheating or something (keeping some kind of secret) and they were only on screen 2 and 3 times this month. Like what? How am I supposed to care when I barely see them? 
    • Definitely wouldn't trust Dinah right now haha.  But that's great to know Billy comes back soon!  I'm excited for that. If he's at the boardinghouse, then I guess he does get closer to Nola perhaps, and then he'll be around Peter/Bridget and J, who is currently in his orbit along with Michelle and Dahlia, and Marcus is at the boardinghouse, so maybe they go the teenage story route most of this time until Billy gets back.
    • Sounds like me, but I prefer to be referred to as Contessa. We all know I can go a long time not paying attention to certain things.  And, if I might add, hey there dude, you effed up pretty good this time and I think this was your last chance. So don't let the door hit you in your behind as you go BYE MOMMY!
    • That did cross my mind at first, but I'd be more inclined to believe it if this didn't involve Trump. I'm not at all sure he is capable of being that sneaky. Of course, there's always a possibility I guess that his advisors are doing it without telling him, but that seems awfully risky. Trump is such a loose cannon you can never predict what he's going to do or say.
    • Whoa. She should have fought like hell to get that. Was it the greatest show ever? No, but it had a fantastic cast and was practically guaranteed to last multiple seasons because of its star power. Could have certainly led to bigger and better things. If it had flopped she could have always gone back to soaps. Judith Light broke through on a sitcom where she was basically second banana to Tony Danza. That grew into a very busy and distinguished career. The woman is still regularly booked to this day.
    • I could understand her being frustrated by the fact that she'd been in the business 10+ years at that point, and probably couldn't even get in the door. But then again, she'd already gone out for pilot season once (that we know of) and she and  her agent knew a 35-ish woman had a very difficult time in Hollywood. I know she did a few guest spots, but other than Designing Women, nothing I saw--not even a Murder She Wrote, and that show had tons of ex-soapers on it. I mean, God bless Marilu Henner, but even having been on Taxi, she couldn't get arrested for years either.
    • I didn't rewatch that period, so I'm not really sure how much Bill is on. I recall something about him living at the boardinghouse. I think Van made Matt his guardian, and why she didn't name Josh would be a mystery to me, other than the HW decided they needed to keep Bill in Matt's sphere. Nola is also his aunt, although they don't know each other well, and Van wouldn't have trusted her anyway. There's Dinah---but she's unreliable. Billy gets out of jail around NYE.

    • That's on Kimmer. As someone posted above...she was offered roles in pilots but she would be part of an ensemble or supporting. She didn't want that so she came back to GL. I don't know what she thought would happen..someone offering her "Here's Kimmer!" or The "Zimmer Comedy Powerhouse Hour" variety show..but her housefrau fans did not have the same pull in HW as they did on the soaps. Forbes and Watros knew that you had to take small parts to get noticed ands start a career in primetime. I know she was in consideration for the wife in Evening Shade, but when you go up against Marilou Henner, the soap diva looses. I could see her frustrated in a role like that, where she has to be the understanding wife with a bit of sass, but she could have made it work, if it wasnt for her huge ego.  I think it would have been an issue haveing all the powerhouse comedy actors surrounding...(lets face it..Alice Ghostly woudl have wiped the floor with her...) but it would have been a good launching padd.
