So, it looks like Days is back to being uploaded at 6 AM. Hopefully, Peacock fixes it. 

As for today, I didn’t like seeing EJ so stupid. The EJ we’ve watched for years would have known from the very beginning that Stefan had managed to switch the glasses. Not a good look for him.  

I did like Tripp not taking crap from anybody. He still has the best chemistry with Wendy. 

As for Alex and Gwen and the writing, I understand it. We’ve all lusted for straight guys

 But does this guy seriously think that if he keeps writing RSW and his characters this way that he’ll somehow get in his pants?? I mean, come on.

I noticed they delayed the upload. I skimmed through the first couple of minutes and noticed Tripp was on. The rest of the show looks dreadful like last week.

I'm rewatching some BS2 the Paul and Andrew scenes for Thursday return.

So are they just throwing RSW at anyone and hope one of these pairings works out?  He's been with 5 different women since he debuted.  His love for Stephanie clearly knows no bounds.

Maggie making Zander part of Titan is idiotic.  Alex might not be wrong about her being in charge.

How many clauses are in Li's agreement with Gabi?  He said not sleeping with someone else was clause 2.6.  What the heck? That sounds like a very wordy contract.  Plus, It's so exciting to watch them have the same conversation over and over again as well.  

I have nothing to say about the Stefan/EJ nonsense.  I honestly couldn't keep up with all the glasses switching today.  I still don't understand why those two just don't make their own drinks and keep them in their hands or just not drink at all.   I personally feel like I am dumber now after watching that entire sequence of events today.

Tripp/Wendy/Johnny was pretty good.  I can understand why Johnny didn't think stealing Tripp's badge was a big deal, but it was very serious to Tripp.  Tripp showed restraint by not telling Li to shove it after he asked Tripp to take the couch to save money.  Why are all the doctors on this show poor or assumed to be poor lol?  I am sure Tripp can easily afford 1 room in a 3 bedroom apartment on his salary.

The only point I would make in fairness about the silly living situation in Salem is that they work in a university-based hospital where salaries are much lower than in a private healthcare system.

That being said, the weird nepotism of Sarah and Tripp being hired mid-semester simply because their family worked in the hospital is far more unrealistic.

I just don't understand why they are making EJ dumb.   He's not dumb.  Nicole's not dumb.  Why did they continue the dinner for hours when it was clear that something was off?

The last several years have made me feel dumber, but sometimes it's silly and laughable dumb.  This was like a weird teenage game these two 45 years were doing and I am supposed to think they run a billion dollar company lol.

    • I think with the Silk Press Sheila/Eva/Ted/Nicole situation fully out and in the open (for the most part)... I have some predictions for May/June: Kat/Eva/Tomas:  With the revelation that her father, who she held up as a hero, is not as perfect as he's presented himself to be.. I see Kat focusing her energy on supporting her mother and pushes Tomas away (she had mentioned to Vernon about how Tomas had asked her to step in and talk Naomi into dropping the lawsuit and how she didn't feel comfortable with that).   With Tomas pushed away from Kat.. he become the one individual that is nice to Eva and also feels a bit of guilt since his telling of what she confided in him to Kat ended up being the spark that made Kat resume investigating Eva.   Eva will also go to Tomas for comfort... and that will cause even more conflict/issues between herself and Kat. Nicole/Ted:  As we've seen for the last 2+ months... Nicole is not anything like Dani and her response to Silk Press' bombshells proves that.  Even if she opts not to file for divorce.. I predict a messy War of the Roses type of situation.   Although she kind of bought this on herself with the bottom bit of trust she had for Eva irregardless of the fact that she came recommended by Mona. Martin:  I have a feeling that his memories of the being Silk Press Sheila's little brownie friend will also revive the nightmares full stop.. and May will have this be the A story with Smitty and kids affected by this secret of his from the past.  If found out.. will Smitty leave him, or will Smitty continue his unhealthy devotion to Martin (and it is unhealthy).   And also, I hope we get some more focus/development on the Joey/Vanessa/Doug situation.. and also connect the threads of that threesomes to Jacob/Jacob's partner/Jacob's dad thread... and also get to see who else Joey starts to set his sights on (perhaps a Dupree.. since they're vulnerable right now). My wishlist for May/June for the B and C stories: Naomi/Jacob:  Cute couple.. but why are they together.  As the late Agnes Nixon would ask if she view them .. why are they together?  What is it about Naomi and Jacob's pasts pre marriage has led the two to find one another and get married?  Naomi seems a control freak... as a way to not be like her 'weak' mother Dani so she calls the shots?  What draws Jacob to Naomi?  Is it her sense of justice and passion?  Is it the Dupree last name?  Ashley/Derek:  The last time she was on, we finally got a bit of personality from her that isn't so perfect.  She's high strung/anal about her surroundings and her life.  Is she like this because she was a latchkey kid due to her single mother working all the time?  Is she only with Derek because he's 'simple' and 'uncomplicated'.. someone she thinks won't try to upset her routines?  As I say... I don't know if the writers/producers have the 'why' figured out for these two.. and if they can figure that out.. story can generate from that.
    • It's not the worst idea lol.  Emma deserves much better than Joss though.
    • Robert Newman gets the short end of the stick, as Josh is usually stuck being an [!@#$%^&*] until the chick he's with goes cray-cray and Reva becomes the better alternative.  Reva was also married to Josh's brother Billy.

      Marnie Schulenburg's widower. She was such a strong person. (I did not realize he played the Tucker Carlson knockoff on Succession)
    • She has the Bo Buchanan curse.  Agreed, Carly's reaction would be quite interesting. 
    • I agree. Even the discussion about cuts at the end of scenes. I'm binging THE DEFENDERS right now, and it has those cuts. Is it odd? Oh God yes. Heck, I will say it's worse than what has been discussed here because it does not bother me here and this was back in 2017/2018.   That said...I am starting to look forward to BTG finding their proper rhythm.     
    • Louise, what memories & Brooks with her! Other favorite domestics: Lucinda's butler Matthew, Ginger on GL, Vivian of course on AW. A notable butler & a notable cook at the Qs. DAYS Ivan taking care of Vivian Allamain all of those years. Oh, on AW Carl had a driver who sometimes had other duties: Ito? I recall him being Asian. I always felt sorry for Louise & Brooks when Mac & Rachel would fall out. How difficult it must have been for them with all that tension & heaven forbid they be in the room for one of their fights, which were violent & mean-spirited & loud! 
    • I don't believe JFP wanted rid of Donna because she was isolated. She wasn't any more isolated than most characters on the show at that point. JFP just couldn't live out her fantasies with Anna Stuart the way she could with Linda Dano. She degraded the character instead, as happened to Donna under a number of regimes.  Donna, Rachel and Felicia were never characters who were all over the canvas. Felicia probably had the most reach of the three, as she ran restaurants for a decade, but they had their own spheres.  Rachel had a large role in Felicia's alcoholism storyline, as Felicia tanked her relationship with Cory Publishing and then her drinking caused her to start a fire at the TV studio, meaning Rachel had to fire her from her talk show. Rachel was at Felicia's failed intervention. Felicia and Donna had some back and forth during that strange period where Donna was dating Cass.
