Hahahahaha f**k you Alex

Team Maggie all the way!!

I enjoyed the Xander/Gwen scenes, except for the ones that Leo was apart of. Realistic stuff like that is always good to see. 

Still have no sympathy for Gwen or Alex. They got what they deserved. I wonder what’s going to happen after next week, for the two of them

And for Tripp and Johnny as well. They really need to push the rivalry/hatred between the two of them. 

And the constant ringing phone

That was because they actually filmed it in an office at Burbank.

 

I think it'll return. Even if it's dinky, there's no way they set it up to use for a brief episode. When was the last time they bothered to build a set only to use it briefly really?

What's the point in Nicole telling Stefan that he forgot the olives for their vodka martinis only to drink vodka martinis without olives when E.J. found some stashed in the mini fridge? 

How does Johnny think that he could ask Tripp for his father's recent hospital tests? Man, that's some pasty ass white boy privilege right there.

I like The Spectator set. It's kind of like stepping into a real Tampa Bay Times. So far, they have one news story in development as it's pinned up right behind Gwen. It looks like it may have some real potential.

Yeah, Maggie is definitely coming off as a villian.  I take back what I said yesterday lol.  Alex is so annoying that I find it funny, but even if Maggie has good ideas and intentions, she only got the job because she is Victor's wife.  Neither have a great leg to stand on here with their amazing experience.  Both of them should slow their roll on this and Victor should just really hire an outside CEO.  I appreciate it gives Maggie something concrete to do especially considering JA's passing.

Weepy Gwen is the worst type of Gwen.  If she has to be on my screen I wish she was scheming not crying.

The Stefan/EJ drugging and switching drinks story is lame.  Just make your own damn drinks or don't drink instead of this tomfoolery.  It's so stupid and I don't even really get the point because I don't give a crap about Dimera.

I like Tripp/Johnny having a rivalry and I like Wendy/Johnny as sleuths, but I am ready for this quad with Chanel to get messier.

If Ben and Ciara are returning with

does this mean that RSW will play both roles, or is Maggie's ascendancy to the CEO position a way to get rid of Alex temporarily?

Also, are the Dimera's deciding between two CEOs who've been dead for most of the past decade?  It seems like neither of them would be up to speed in terms of technology and modern corporate concerns.

Finally, I'd be happy if Wendy and Johny remain just friends.  DAYS has an excellent history of cross-gendered non-romantic partners (Eugene & Marlena, Anna & Alex, etc..) and it would be nice if somebody in Salem had a story that was not only focused on romance, the supernatural, or corporate management.

Well at least next week looks good.  Last week was pretty bad.  I am not going to lie, I hate this EJ/Stefan story even more than Leo/Gwen/Zander/Sarah.  While I like Nicole and EJ this drugging plot is absolutely ridiculous and feels like such a waste of time.

So according to Ron, the heaven/purgatory/hell nonsense was a stalling tactic while Peacock decided whether they were going to do another season of Beyond Salem or incorporate the storyline into the main show.

Such a waste of money. It would have been cheaper and made more sense to write the ladies doing things off camera. Kate and Roman already had their plan written for them. Both take off to go to Switzerland to see Austin and Carrie. I believe Steve and Kayla had an anniversary so have them take a romantic trip. John and Marlena could just stay around Salem and use every now and then when needed. Then one day the ladies are all back in Salem and they get sick the virus is back and then continue the SL and lead into the return of Bo and Hope. Boring I know but way easier to swallow than the great beyond nonsense. It only aired like 6 episodes over a course of two months. 4 were in February alone.

    • 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
