I feel like they use Sonny more than Lucas.

The pairing with Rafe was always WTF?  They weren't good together, they had no chemistry, and Ava did nothing but cook pasta for him.

I don't even think Ava/Jake had the chance to be boring together lol.  They have had about 15 scenes depicting their entire relationship lol.

I haven't even seen the episode yet, but the mugger already reminds me of that dorky mob guy last year. I get that these day player characters are meant to have exaggerated features since they're appearing briefly and they're not going to waste time diving into their psyche, but they could do with pulling it back a bit at least.

Gwen, Xander and Sarah boring mess

Fake Kristen gloating about a company she now runs which seems to have no office or clients.

A day player kills Jake.

Gabi and Sonny talk amounted to nothing.

The cliffhanger showing a close up of sweaty nude RSW with Sonny wondering who he is.

Ron Captivating truly sucks!

I'm a firm believer that one should always find something positive even if one is completely bored and indifferent at what you're watching. And I was truly bored and indifferent to today's show.

But here goes:

1. I highly enjoyed a barely dress Xander throughout the entire episode. Anytime we get a half-naked Paul Telfer on our screen is always a good thing!

2. Eric's naked biceps. Like fine wine Greg Vaughan gets better with age.

3. Despite the fact he was fully dressed in a pleasing suit, Sonny was still the hottest piece of male eye candy on today's screen. Zach Tinker's mere presence has given Sonny a character trait he never had when played by Freddie Smith - SEXY!! Even with the pornstache. LOL.

No truer a statement...and I have to say I'm grateful for it. LOL

I miss the days when soaps shamelessly, unapologetically and blatantly exploited the male body on a daily basis. In fact, soaps is the one genre in the entertainment field in which the male body is more exploited than the female body. At one time almost every soap had at least one male actor who sole reason for being hired because they had a fabulous rock-hard torso. LOL

How were Jake and Ava great loves? Seriously. All they did were back massages due to Jake's lower back pain, ate some scrambled eggs next to the bed, and they passed a roll of toilet paper to each other through the door in case one forgot to replace it. More importantly, they both held their breath while doing it because they didn't want to smell it.

    • 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. 
    • Other than hanging out with Liz, all of Lucky's stories have been stalled out or dropped; the relationship with his son; his wanderlust. He hasn't been involved in any of the action/adventure or con artist stuff. I don't think he's even had a scene with Sidwell since the latter came to town. He's a real after thought. I doubt he's long for the show.

    • I started a separate thread for the same tribute, but of course it can be discussed wherever. doesn't matter where. Fyi  Jason Cook, Staci Greason, and Eileen Davidson will be there as well as Reckell and some of the current cast Thread for Live tribute to Drake https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/68987-days-currentformer-actors-live-video-tribute-for-drake-hogestyn
    • Seeing Nicole and Martin together reminds me of watching Alice with Mickey Horton in the 90s and 00s. The seem more like peers than mother and son.  The younger half of the cast (35ish and below) is playing younger, and the older half (35+) is playing older.
