Seems like poor editing. There was a loud bump and Li screamed just before her car caught fire so maybe we are supposed to assume Sheila rammed her. With car accidents on soaps you should always expect something that doesn't make sense.

That would have made too much sense and you can't have that on a soap, lol. But at least Li got to beat Sheila down at least a little bit.

I love just reading the board.  Oh it's beyond suspending belief or disbelief with this show.  All of the comments - for the same reason on B&B there's actually no one in Los Angeles, traffic is never a problem, dark lonely roads at night with glowering looks over cliffsides (with no one there but the person staring into the abyss), cousin whoever from Australia who sees someone beating someone down with a TIYUH_ ION but doesn't just lay down on the horn to stop it, or drive right up to them and break it up easily - instead takes a VID-YO from her phone of it, and on and on and on and on.  Too funny.  Or people proclaiming what they're going to do in order to BLOW their lives up completely - RIGHT TO the said person who is known to be dangerous - instead of just going to the police with the information....or people who CONSTANTLY TEXT but then suddenly cannot figure out how to TEXT or must TELL THE PERSON IMMEDIATELY instead of texting (for no reason).....keep the list going.

I have been enjoying the show lately. I look forward to Finn reuniting with Steffy and their family. I did like seeing Li fight back against Sheila the other day. I hope Li is still alive and will show up at some point to help bring Shelia down. I did think it was kind of amusing how after Li knocked Shelia down, she went after her on the ground. Li wanted to get in some more licks lol. Shelia really has done a lot to her family, had an affair with her husband, had her unknowingly raising his biological child, shooting him and leaving him to die in cold blood, along with his wife/mother of his child. Li could have/should have been whooped Sheila's behind lol. 

Also, I'm not caring for this stuff with Paris/Carter though I do think that CC is good casting as Paris's mother. Carter is definitely using Paris and they don't have chemistry IMO. I really wish that the show would have just explored a romantic pairing with Paris/Thomas. Paris/Thomas had good chemistry and he genuinely wanted her unlike Carter. Carter is using her and it's not a good storyline.

I would have rather had seen her and Thomas together, (possibly starting out with a triangle with Zende.) Speaking of Zende while I was not a fan of them together, I do think she had more chemistry with him than she does Carter. Plus, I like Zende/Thomas's dynamic/relationship/friendly professional rivalry. It could have been interesting to see what happened if they had been in a triangle with Paris.

I liked today's show. I did lol at Grace calling Carter a hustler and at the way she's been reacting to his engagement to Paris. Carter is using Paris and Paris is acting very naive about the whole situation. Acting like there isn't anything strange about how quickly Carter proposed and how he wants to get married ASAP. (Tomorrow on the show). Plus she stated she wanted to invite Zende, and acting like she believes he will be cool with being at the wedding.

Speaking of Zende,  I have sympathy for him and him liking him more throughout this situation. I do think he may accept Paris's invitation, but I don't think he will be thrilled to be at the wedding. He hasn't been confrontational and has handled the situation with Carter/Paris in a mature way. But I wouldn't minded seeing him have more of a problem with things. I also liked that he was talking to Ridge the other day and referred to him as "Uncle." Nice to see that relationship/ familial ties showcased a little.  

This version of Ridge can be very overbearing though he made some good points about Carter and how he's handling things with Paris and his feelings for Quinn. Carter could try and date Paris more first, or have a longer courtship like Grace suggested. But he just wants to rush into things and it's making him look flaky and isn't the decision that a mature man like him should be making. Carter has often been a pretty level headed guy, but he hasn't been acting that way as much lately.

    • 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?     
    • The Bell soaps, B&B and Y&R: cannot watch. If I went by the last time I did I would have to give them both D- but I really don't think it counts when you're not a daily watcher.  DAYS: B+ (Now this is with the knowledge that for years I have given this show a D- because I've been a fan for too long to give it the F it deserved.) GH: A+ (With Korte driving this bus to me the show is so much better! IMO we just had the best NB in so many years I cannot count!) BTG: A solid (Things I love, a few I do not, nothing I hate, still find it in general remarkable.) As always, thanks for doing this thread. I count it. I always look for it & I always post. 
    • Okay, I continue to maintain that what is so good about this particular reveal followed by umbrella storyline is that you can see & understand many different points of view where there is not one bad guy or one 100% right person.  About your stated opinion, that Lois & Gloria did the right thing, you know that this was technically an illegal adoption? For it to have been legal the father, if known, would have to have been informed & have signed off on terminating his own paternal rights. And, of course, it is clear how many people they lied to.  Personally I feel like Lois is going to take the biggest "public" blame with Lulu a close second in the blame category. I am looking forward to a tongue lashing I hope Brook Lynn gives to Gloria. I continue to be more than annoyed with Dante. First his attitude toward Gio with regards to Rocco & a drinking game & its results. Second his attitude toward Lulu. Meanwhile enjoying the show every day!
    • Lois and Gloria did the right thing I feel knowing it was Camila that raised Gio has BL feeling some jealousy No one is saying that Camila was a bad mother to Gio I believe it will be Gio saying that Camila was great to him, thanking Lois and Gloria to get BL to see truth
