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’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
