I like MCE too but Chelsea stopped being relevant the moment Justin Hartley left, and even before that the writing was all over the place for Chelsea to begin with as the show could never decide if she was the interesting Chelsea the Con or some generic uninteresting tragic heroine. When the show decided to stick with the latter she became FF material.

But I can understand and feel ya on the Days vibes. Rey and Chelsea would pretty much be Y&R’s answer to Rafe and Nicole.

Can Kevin and Chloe have a disagreement that results in a murder-suicide story for the two of them?

 

OMG that is heartbreaking I can’t even imagine what they are going through.

Nick is wandering around unattached yet there is no interaction with Chelsea who was his romantic interest throughout 2017. 

Why did they break up?

As dull as Chelsea/Nick were, wouldn't it make more sense for them to have some kind of involvement than pair Chelsea with Rey, who she tried to kill?

And what happened to that story anyway?

Chelsea was locked up but then her mom got sick and it was decided the only way she could be let out was to be guarded (by Rey-really? A GC policeman can just go off and babysit a mental patient?)

Anyway Rey returns alone as apparently Chelsea is suddenly no longer a threat or a patient.

When she returns everything is OK and there are no charges laid or further treatment required.

Gotta love the Josh Griffith school of storytelling. Pesky details like logic, motivation and follow through? Forget about 'em and move on

If I recall, Connor was being a little drama queen so Chelsea moved in with Adam to help him together and Nick wasn't into it and her being pulled back into Adam's orbit (sounds familiar?) so he broke it off.

And while it hasn't worked out with Sharon who I have long wanted to be paired with a non-Newman relative, Nick needs to date a completely new woman that has no ties to Sharon, Phyllis, Adam or Victor. 
Those characters are going in circles and the whole brothers-sharing-woman thing is soooo tired when it keeps happening.

First shirtless scene for Noah or did I miss one? That’s some serious grandeur he’s been hiding under those dark clothes and leather jackets. (Obviously we knew it from his IG.)

So Keemo had a heart attack? If we find out that Diane did something to result in his death, I’ll be so pissed LOL.

Remember what I was saying about me being worried about how they'd write Diane this time around based on the misguided way they advertised her return?

And now we are speculating Diane is a *killer*?

Diane is an antagonist but not a villain or a crazy Patty-style stalker. If they are going to go in that direction I'd rather she had stayed dead.

Based on the YouTube comments of the promo video, you'd be surprised at how many people would disagree. Some are even comparing Diane Jenkins to Sheila Carter.

What worries me is that if she's being put in Jack and Phyllis' orbit or Victor and Nikki's, she would no doubt end up being the loser of the story. It would be refreshing if for once she had the upper hand.

    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
    • I need to listen! Forever & a Day was a fun soapy podcast to have available when I walked the dog.
    • A few years ago, Devon and Nick started a charity organization together, I think it's for housing in the community.
    • I’m hoping to start getting to know Vernon better this month. He’s really only been a bunch of noble and good tropes so far. I don’t want him to be taken down the way Ted has been, but it seems he was a long-running Senator and no matter what party you are, lasting longer than twenty years means you’re looking out for you (and not who you’re supposed to be looking out for) most of all. I want to get to know both Vernon and Anita beyond their Dupree posturing. Clifton Davis can sleepwalk handling the kind of material Christopher Bernau and David Lewis handled and I’d like to see more than just a saint.
    • I thought Emily/Hal was a really interesting pairing. And I think KMH played that version of Emily very well! It might not have been what people wanted from Emily, and the writing got pretty gross at the end, but I thought she embodied that character effectively.
    • Don't know if this exactly fits here, but it is connected: Does this abandoned building look familiar? It is one of those explorer videos - and the outside may look VERY familiar if one watched GH in the '70s and '80s!

    • So, I have been in the hospital all week. I am close to being up to date on my soaps. Now I have to go to the Infusion Ctr daily to get IV antibiotics, for 6 weeks. I am frankly exhausted. A hospital is no place to be when you're sick. Hooked up to machines that go beep beep beep all day & night long. Someone wakes you up every hour on the hour for something, either to stick you with needles or to take your gosh-awful blood pressure for the umpteenth time. So, you don't get any sleep. Now I have a central line, upper right chest. After they "installed" it, I said, I am now Borg. They just stared at me. Apparently scifi is not general knowledge. What happened? I have an infection inside my big toe right foot & it burned the skin on my foot. The burned skin is already better. It was like a bad sunburn. The infection inside the toe is the issue. Oral antibiotics won't even get its attention. So, IV antibiotics plus time.

        As Salem bids farewell to John Black on Monday, the "Days" family and fans say a final goodbye to Drake Hogestyn.   From his time as a young man playing baseball in the minor leagues for the New York Yankees to his almost four-decade run as John Black, Drake always did his best. And, while becoming a soap opera icon, he spent almost 40 years at "Days" telling the best stories and taking the younger cast under his wing to make sure they would do their best as well. Thank you, Drake, for the legacy you have left for everyone at "Days." The impact you made on the cast, crew and fans will never be forgotten...and that's a fact.
    • I found an interview with Joseph Breen (Will Jeffries) where he mentions that Reva was put in a coma so Zimmer could go to Hollywood to do a pilot (OMG, if ONLY it had been picked up, LOL) and that Sonni and Josh and Will became a popular with the audience while she was out of commission.  If you want to read the whole thing: https://www.authorsden.com/visit/viewarticle.asp?id=47394 Breen was known for being very candid in interviews, I wish I could find more of them. I seem to recall he made a couple of snarky comments about Zimmer, implying she was not above acting like a diva. Sounded to me like he had a lot of respect for Forbes (who went on to have a very strong and varied career after GL). 
    • I was so confused why Devon was prying into Nicks love life and then it clicked and I remembered they’re brother-in-laws. Shows how little I pay attention to this show anymore. I was like uh? Do these two even know each other this well?
