I liked Mimi (and really liked Gigi, part of the time when I could stand her) but I don't think Farah has any interest in coming back full time, it seems like her poker career or whatever is her life now. And I don't think that character really has an imprint beyond FG's very specific personality, so I wouldn't recast.

Agreed.  I don't necessarily like what I've seen of Fath as a person, but I liked her as Mimi always.  Honestly, they can just recast her with the actress they used on the web series if not.   Days has more reliance on it's 80's star than any other soap and they never built up the next generations very well.  I swear Days probably has the oldest median age of cast members on all soaps lol.

I think this is right but I guess they can introduce Pocket one day with a one-day cameo from FF and then Mimi can go back to playing poker.

I loved it when B&B borrowed Lauren Koslow for a day to introduce her SORASed son Marc (another character that then went nowhere). I think soaps should do that more often; just give a tiny bone with a one-day visit from a past character when there is a decent reason. Few people would turn down a one-day paycheck for a fun visit.

Works for me.  Even if Farah appeared to usher Pocket on (and let's hope he does not go by Pocket anymore lol)-Phillip could devote his time to getting to know his son instead obsessing over a woman.  I always liked Phillip/Stephanie.  Maybe Stephanie could come back.

At least Shawn was able to drop some truth bombs on Belle even though her attitude remains awful.  

Allie definitely is a better devil than Johnny was.  Poor Chanel...

Today's show wasn't terrible. I did quite enjoy Shawn getting to throw Philip in Belle's face.

AlDevil is already loads better than JoDevil. The devil really hates Chanel and keeps breaking her heart! 

Did Ciara's outfit come from Maggie's closet?

The devil might be racist!  Alliedevil was sorta speaking the truth though.  She moved on way too quick from Tripp.  She just said it in the cruelest way.  If I were Chanel, I would literally just high tail it out of town and never look back!

Shawn is so right.  Find someone new Shawn-please.

Here's the thing about Ciara's wardrobe.  The dress is ugly-no question-but VK is wearing Free People, Reformation, Revolve, etc. dresses that are meant to be oversized.  Not maternity.  Super popular brands with cute, expensive clothes, but they aren't meant for that purpose, so I think they don't always fall right or look right at that far along in a 'pregnancy'.   But that's the retail manager in me so ignore it.  I just think the show is letting VK pick things that aren't the most flattering or appropriate because she's trendy IRL.

      Terrific ideas -- but would Mike and Nancy's great-grandson bear the last name Dallas?  Yuck.  Any way we could make him a Karr?    And in a similar vein, how could Bill and Martha's granddaughter bear the name Marceau?   I love the idea of continuing the Karr, Marceau, Hillyer, and Drake legacies, but if the new characters do not use the familiar last names, the effort to connect them to the past is rather fruitless.  Just my personal observation.

      And they gave him a whole commercial and everything! Happy to see that star keeps growing.

      It's doubly a shame because one thing Long excelled at was using backstory to enhance the present story. I think that's one reason why Josh and Reva took off the way they did--the early stuff is really good. (Unfortunately, they ruined it by overusing the characters). Imagine if Roger returned to get involved with Alex, and her brother and ex, who used to be dire enemies, came together to oppose him. Instead, Mike was nowhere to be seen and Alan was written out for years. Yes, casting would have been an issue, but when you think about what they wound up with for 15 years...

      I've never been so annoyed to be running late. lol   EVERYONE looks so pretty.   Happy to see Andre and Eva interacting, Mona being there, and happy to see Nicole play matchmaker for Dani. Fingers crossed that FOINE doctor from Nicole's last event pops up.   @kalbir Andre looking like a snack in that tux.

      Also gotta feel sorry for Mona, realizing today that she’s only known Leslie for a few months; she’s going to blame herself for all of this.

      The way this show handled Nikolas' shooting Hayden, Austin's murder, the long slow delay to getting rid of Cyrus, etc. we're likely to have it revealed in a year when Nina is 3 weeks away from leaving and has had minimal airtime.

      Interesting. I love my Roku.  No, I don't know. Who? I mean Disney def does. I would think a number of parties have stocks.

      Is he still spamming demands that they hire the campy chick from The Haves and Have Nots? Or whichever show it was. I don't think it's an either/or. I happen to think Dana, Dani, Eva, Nicole, Kat, etc. are all great. Certain folks aren't going to be some posters' favorites and that's fair enough. But I would argue most of those characters above (and several others) have caught on with a lot of the online audience. I've even warmed up to Martin!
