I wasn't watching closely enough today to tell if those are Kate's ashes in the urn Roman is carrying around or if it's just the urn he plans to put her ashes in. If she's already been cremated, is Rolf going to grow a clone of her or something? (Not that this show would let a thing like being reduced to five pounds of ashes prevent a miraculous return to life.)

Roman sincerely believes Kate's ashes are in the urn.

Don't know if it's empty or if it contains someone else's ashes.  Or if there is some supernatural thing coming ahead that brings everyone back to life (which was *maybe* hinted at in the Day of Days winter promo).  Who knows.

Ah yeah another possibility.  Who knows LOL

Stephen Nichols killed it today. And I’m glad that we finally got a Steve/Jada scene. Now, if only we could get a Jada/Stephanie scene and friendship.

I liked the Sonny/Alex scene too. Once again, this storyline is being written correctly. 3 months ago, they would’ve had Sonny jump down Alex’s throat and screaming at him.

I heard that. And despite everything, Days has often been the best soap (or as I like to call it, least worst

But that storyline??

If they had submitted episodes from the week of Sami and Lucas’ wedding, I’d understand.

Can someone remind me how did they explain how the ashes that Anna was carry around were not Tony and how they brought him back? Also was that done under Ron’s writing? This falls into the question I posted about speculation being posted on the board. Now that we are seeing this part of the orchid SL. A part of me is wondering if they might have killed off Kate and something is going on BTS. The scenes that just aired were filmed back in June and that is the last time Lauren posted anything days related (except JA passing) on her Instagram or Twitter. She is the only one who didn’t post about Days moving to peacock. She missed day of days which is a first time for her. MBE and SN are back to filming this week. We all know Deidre isn’t going anywhere so that brings Marlena and Kayla are back. It’s days so anything and everything is possible but this will definitely be interesting to see how this plays out.

It is an odd day when the Writer's Guild grants an award to a guy who cannot even craft a grammatically correct tweet. In celebration did they 'drink us' some champagne?

On another note, we've all talked about the pacing, but Kate just died and Roman already has her ashes?  From personal experience it takes more than a month to get the ashes back from a cremation.  It's not like a consolation prize that the hospital gives you upon your exit.  Although, I guess, one could conceivably get an urn engraved within hours at one of those Things Remembered stores in the local mall.  So, it may be that he just has the urn and is waiting for the ashes which leaves the possibility of Kate's resurrection.

It was an unintentionally campy moment when Rex and Lucas were naming all of Kate's children that needed to be contacted, but no mention of Chelsea.

If Kate/Lauren Koslow is really done and that was her send off, I probably will be done with the show. I took months off after Abby was needlessly murdered “permanently” just because the two actresses didn’t want to commit long term to Days, because I thought it was so stupid and actually enjoyed the character. Kate Roberts has been my favorite character since I got into the show in the early 2000’s and to kill her off and cremate her without having a scene with Lucas/BD would just be criminal and I think I’d be fine not watching anymore.

    • Haha that scarf thing did go on a bit too long, very odd. And what a young Rick!  I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I just never got the physical appeal of Grant Aleksander, but he's definitely a great actor. Who is the older lady around the 8:30 mark, and also ends the episode, alone and in pain? She seems like a really interesting character. I love the smoky voice and sultry, snaky vibe she seems to have.
    • I can't remember exactly but I think she lives in or is part of the cottage story with Carrie. Carrie poisons her in this episode.  I forgot Teresa was on the show. (I see that AI is insisting she wasn't - well they're wrong) Poor Maeve. I can how even she had her limits. 
    • It pisses me off that the other Duprees are making this incident all about them as well. They are playing a family of victims, acting as if Ted cheated on all of them. They should be supportive, but not like this. I have a family that makes anything that happens to me personally all about them, and seeing the same thing on TV is rage-inducing.
    • There are the makings of good Emmy reels in these past couple of episodes, but the industry is still going to favor even the most mediocre stories and performances on the older soaps. And with the pressure from the government over race I can see the academy shutting out Beyond The Gates to avoid criticism from the administration and the far right media.
    • oh, definitely! It's too bad she hit the start of a rough transition period for the show. She shines, but she's stuck with bad story and some (if not exactly bad) not great co-stars.  Uh, who did Maureen O'Sullivan play? (Sigh--and only if I'd understood exactly who and how wonderful Teresa Wright was in '86) God, the summer of '84 was literally one event after another. Kim's outfit alone must've been worth a small fortune. And poor Maeve. She looks so uncomfortable. Rebecca Hollen told a story on Locher Room where Maeve dropped the f-bomb during the shooting of it. For some reason, she wasn't being listened to, and had just had enough. As a producer, I would've been holding my breath as my pregnant actress kept walking around strange and undoubtably uneven sets in that long skirt.
    • Thanks. I'm glad we have some fan memories of these years as this is such a typically snide take on the genre. It's also poorly written and reminds me a great deal of the tedious "snark" recaps that became popular in the '90s. The end in particular. The 1979/80 stuff I have seen is much more polished than a number of soaps at the time. It was very easy to watch and not too bogged down in past story.  Margo is played by Ann Williams, who was on what seemed like every soap. I think she said Margo was her favorite role.  These episodes aren't consecutive, but if you ever have time, they are worth a watch. They are bits and pieces from January and April of 1979 - April in and out of prison, her past calling to her via her psychic powers (and the suicide of Miles' wife Denise, who had murder framing in mind). April 1979 has the end of Winter Austen (such a fantastic soap name).  I don't want to drop a ton of links but you can find playlists on Youtube.
    • And the rating 'wars' continue...hehe.
    • Well, it was fun while it lasted for Rebecca Herbst. Le sigh.
