Probably.

Kristen and little Brady didn't have a ton of scenes, but I will never forget this set.  Kristen has Marlena locked in the Secret Room and tells Brady since she's marrying John she will be his new mommy.  More should be made of this on the show, but Days has clearly shied away from the whole John/Kristen romance over the last decade.  Kristen/Brady will never not be super creepy even if they aged Brady 2 decades along the way.

Thursday's ending was pure bad camp.

Colin didn't hit Paulina as Thursday's episode showed.

Again important things like Abe being hit happened offscreen.

The actor playing Colin is really awful. He isn't even menacing. He is a cartoon.

The writing is atrocious for Days.

The acting is so bad.

All the Sloan pimping is just too much.

There was some good acting today. But there was also some bad acting too. 

Jada seemed a little checked out, which surprised me because EC is usually a lot better than that. 

Same could be said for EJ, who seemed lousy in the first half of the episode but was doing better by the second half. They could get something really good out of EJ/Nicole/Eric/Sloan. I really hope it isn’t rushed and squandered.

The acting was pretty much awful all around.  Everyone was just screaming on that roof.  I couldn't understand half of what was being said.  I did think it was a pretty exciting episode though.  

I could have done without EJ/Nicole's proposal scenes though.  It seemed out of place in the episode even with Eric/Sloan having scenes as well.

I also thought it was weird there was more than one scene of Rafe getting a hold of Theo.  Half the show happens off screen, but we had Rafe call and talk to Theo on screen with random Dr?  It was such filler.

    • I'm hoping that it doesn't happen. If the show keeps putting out good performance and story it will be hard to shut it out. Daphnee, Trisha, Ambyr and Colby are earning nominations without question.
    • Speaking of correcting dates, since you mentioned it above, why don't you go back to your Saturday post and edit it and replace your wording of "DAYS Ruth Buzzi 11-2-83"  with "DAYS Ruth Buzzi 11-1-83" and add a note that the video has the wrong date of 11/2/83 on it, and that the video is actually 11/1/83. 
    • If the show ever chooses to show any flashbacks of major Ted scenes, the Ted/Eva, Ted/Kat, and Ted/Nicole scenes would need to be re-filmed with nuTed. Since there have been hardly any Ted/Martin scenes with the CurrentTed, they have avoided the difficulty of doing recreated flashbacks with nuTed for scenes with Martin.  The only one would be Martin punching Ted after the anniversary reveal (unless there's something in the next few episodes). I agree with other posters that the fact that we barely saw CurrentTed and Martin interact, makes it less impactful to viewers to see Martin's outrage at the reveal. 
    • This makes me think of that famous quote from COOL HAND LUKE,  "What we've got here is failure to communicate." I did not bring up "apparently" to try to get across either truth or validity, but doubt. If I had been sure, I would have said something entirely different. But, I'm not trying to argue, I hear you & I will comply. Besides that, I will endeavor to word things differently. I am never against trying to improve. 
    • That’s been my main issue with his response. It didn’t feel that earned by what came before. Definitely needed to see more of the Richardsons as a full family unit prior to all of this.
    • Bingo! I thought the exact same thing. Martin's anger feels so out of place, because we've hardly seen him interact with his parents. Vernon and him have more of a father/son relationship and we've seen their dynamic more fully play out. While obviously Ted and Marton are father and son, it felt a bit empty because we haven't really seen them bond or truly connect in any scenes.
    • Leslie inferred over 20 years ago, so Eva and Kat are over 20 at least 
    • As it happens, 40 years ago this week, ABC and CBS revealed their 1985-86 fall schedules. NBC revealed theirs the week before. ABC's would end up changing. The original plan for Tuesdays was to have Diff'rent Strokes lead the night, with He's the Mayor at 8:30, followed by Who's the Boss at 9, Growing Pains at 9:30, and Moonlighting at 10. There was some surprise over MacGruder & Loud not getting renewed, but it was considered part of Aaron Spelling's declining influence at the network. Yes, Dynasty was still a hit (for a while longer), but Aaron's shows steadily took up less and less of the schedule. Fall 1984: Seven hours, five of which were new programming (Dynasty, Hotel, Glitter, Matt Houston, T.J. Hooker, The Love Boat, Finder of Lost Loves; MacGruder & Loud aired at midseason, by which time Glitter was gone.). Fall 1985: Five hours, two of which were new programming (Dynasty, Hotel, The Colbys, Hollywood Beat, The Love Boat). Fall 1986: Three-and-a-half hours, a half-hour of which was new programming (Dynasty, Hotel, The Colbys, Life With Lucy). Fall 1987: Two hours, none of which was new programming (Dynasty and Hotel; HeartBeat premiered at midseason). Fall-winter 1988: Two hours, none of which was new programming (Dynasty and HeartBeat). This led to Variety's infamous shady headline in spring 1989: "Aaron's Dynasty Over"
