Well, at least the Spectator finally has an office

Jada should still be in Eric’s orbit and should still be pregnant with his baby. That would be a lot better to see than whatever the hell’s going on between her and Rafe right now. The pregnancy could have also been the thing that brought Talia to Salem, instead of whatever’s going to happen.

Chad was stupid today. Uncharacteristically stupid. I still like Chad and Stephanie but they can come up with much better conflict for them then this. And agreed with Chad that Alex is a douchebag. Yes, he actually said the word

And I see they’re trying to make Maggie the villain, but it’s not going to work. I don’t care what she does, nothing will ever make me Team Alex.

Yes, the spectator has the usual conference room/office set with two partitions.  Peacock $$$

I still can't believe how badly the show dropped the ball with Jada's pregnancy.  I remember you and I were convinced she was still pregnant and lied about the abortion, but apparently we have more creative minds than Ron.   The conversation between Rafe/Jada was so awkward.  Why is Rafe so weird?  He's a man who's been married multiple times why is he acting like a teenager?

I don't necessarily think Maggie is supposed to be the villian.  It seems like her plans for the company are well thought out.  But if that is the intent it won't work for me either.  I am not going to ever be sad Alex the nepobaby doesn't get to run the entire company.

It's weird Chanel can't hire a single employee lol.  I would assume the business would be separate from her personal assets, but what do I know?

It would have been a lot better than this conflict of interest stuff lol 

I like messes and Eric, in love with Nicole but angry at her, sleeping with Sloan and also about to be a father would have been a pretty good mess. Jada could have been conflicted about how Eric is acting and could be questioning whether or not she wants to shut Eric out of the baby’s life, she could be lashing out at Sloan and Nicole, weaving Talia into it, etc. Rafe could still be a part of it, just have him be secondary in the story

As for Maggie, if she was playing against any other actor/character, I’d agree with you about her not really being written as the villain, but with RSW, I’m not so sure. The agendas in the writing has been evident for years now.

You mean you didn't find Rafe/Jada's playful banter about whether or not eating at the Pub was a date super adorable and compelling lol?  Nicole/Eric breaking up, Eric making poor choices, and Jada questioning Eric's parenting ability/sobriety clearly would have been less interesting 

I am no Maggie fan, but she has shown adeptness at running businesses before even though they were restaurants.  Alex seems to just sexually harass his employees and we are just told he's good at business.  I don't feel any sympathy for him, but I suppose the audience might.  But, like you said, Chad spilling intimate details about Stephanie/Alex's breakup doesn't bode well for Alex being the heavy in anything.

Since the Victor/Maggie pairing, I've always thought it could be a great story that Maggie finds herself getting deeper into the Kiriakis fold and way of thinking, slowly losing her morals and sense of self more and more. Play on her insecurities that have been a part of her character since she started on the show. Have her slowly lose her friends, her daughters, especially Melissa, being cautious of the relationship forming on the heels of Mickey's death and then downright against it. Maggie becoming hard faced, cynical, vengeful at times. The irony being, her changes in personality start to turn Victor off and eventually he starts treats her like he has the past women in his life, she's becomes completely alone and falls apart. Once Victor is done with her, she's completely and utterly alone. The drink gets the best of her again. So much could have been done.

    • I totally understand your sloths concern about it and I agree with you. Let’s hope the show plays it’s cards right.    Further comments about the last few episodes: - I liked that one of the attendees was filming the scene. That’s realistic. I wonder if the writers will follow up with that.  - Martin and Smitty trying to drag Leslie out was very heteronormative, so perfectly in line with them two as characters lol.    As for the future: it’s obvious the Duprees will come to accept Eva one way or another, but the rivalry with Kay should be here for the long term   On the topic of acting: the only bad actors I’m seeing are Ted and Derek. Tomas hasn’t proven to be either good or bad, so far, but he’s certainly mediocre and uncharismatic. He sucks the energy out of the scenes and I don’t see any couple of women ever vying for him. 
    • I’m trying to think which actors VW were working with at the time, and none of them had been there for a while. Even like Mac and Ada didn’t have that big of a part in Rachel’s storyline.  And Jamie was involved with all that movie stuff.
    • Brooke did ads before ATWT too. That probably helped get her the job. After ATWT she seemed to branch more into hosting, along with ads.  I think I saw Kelley in an ad or two, but you're right she wasn't on as much. 
    •   Thanks for sharing these. I wonder if Charles might have been in the running for Adam. I know Preacher was a bit of a bad boy at times on EON, but Neal seemed to be a step down, and Robert Lupone had played a similar part on AMC. Given the huge cast turnover at this point I wonder who thought they had been there long enough to go.  Laura Malone/Chris Rich would get a remote within the next year. 
    • Interesting.  It seems to allude to that statement that Warren Burton made around that time about some AW actors getting special treatment.  I wonder who was resentful about not getting to go. 
    • Good morning, boys!  I figured that it was time that our Gio was introduced into the hotness thread

      @ranger1rg I even included a close up of his face for ya!
    • Under all of Madonna's social media today there is this wave of negative, toxic, absurd comments by Lady Gaga fans telling her how Gaga surpassed her in concert in Copacabana. I mean... Who the hell cares? Why are these fan communities so freaking toxic??? I'm sure Madonna doesn't care... But still. Have some respect for M. Leave her social media alone. Go cheer Gaga and be happy. Why come and spew hate on M??? Crazy world.
    • FYI, again, Ruth/Letitia is not in either of these 2 episodes. So that concludes the 4 episodes I had from Nov. 1983. I don't have the October episodes.
    • Eddie has begun uploading the 1990 episodes. I'm so happy about that. I was mindfully taking a break till there's plenty of episodes I can binge watch when I feel like it. Now that 1989 is complete... I can't wait to press play on February 1989 and resume where I left off.
