The Wendy and Tripp scenes were lame. All the hoopla about having sex and it was a dud.

I finally caught up and this soap should be retitled Bloopers and Practical Jokes.

It's a shame to what Dimitri has been reduced to. He has become a parody.

Well, a whole heckuva lot of stuff got accomplished today! Joyce got shot, rushed to the hospital, operated on & is apparently headed to recovery at the end. Joyce being the lame hit person's name. 

Harris pulled a fakeout & he & Ava are somewhere in a hotel room. Ava's figured out it was EJ who hired the hit. 

Johnny finally told Chanel he's still in love with her. But her reaction was awkwardness. 

Talia got a job as a doc at the hospital, provisionally. 

Tripp & Wendy finally had an uncomplicated consummation. And, it looked like they'd go for Round Two. Whoever directed the scene, oh, Noel, used champagne gushing out of the bottle as the device to show climax. 

Not a bad DAYS work!

Beautiful tribute for Victor/John Aniston. This really was one of the best tributes that Days has done in a while. In the aftermath of this, I hope we get a mystery surrounding the circumstances of his death.

It’s too bad that they’re weren’t more people there, but budget is budget lol. I’m just gonna assume that there were other rows of mourners (behind the camera) and that was where John, Marlena, Nicole, Henderson, etc. were sitting

I cringed when Xander brought up Sonny/Leo. To the point that I wish Sonny had knocked him out. We really did dodge a bullet. As much I love Zach in the role and as much as Sonny should be on the canvas, Zach leaving to take the job on Fire Country really was the best thing to happen. Hope we see him again soon. 

Just like we saw Chelsea lol I was so glad that she was included in this. She did have a good relationship with Victor and I’m glad the show remembered that. Btw, is her son really named Isaac?

I see Alex is getting over the love of his life, Stephanie, pretty quickly. This is why people don’t like him. 

And, just wondering, was Belle going to comfort Philip after he broke down foreshadowing of what’s to come?

They could've easily done oh look it's Marlena and Maggie smiles and commercial. That's all that had to be done or even Bonnie mentioning so and so had arrived but were sitting in the back.

I was going to give the episode a C+ but the ending with LS bumped it to a B-.

If there is tension between Dee and Suzanne, I hope we find out the truth someday

I wonder how that works.

Did Max have to like give up the Brady name or something in order to marry his niece?

Overall I thought it good considering what DAYS budget is. I liked that we saw Chelsea and got an update on what she's been doing. 

Too much Alex and I felt that setting up Alex and Theresa as a potential couple could have waited for another day. 

I did like Xander and Sonny's little feud and Xander calling Sonny a cuck.

 However was disappointed that DAYS didn't have Sonny talk about how Victor was accepting of him being gay. I feel Sonny coming out to Victor and Victor not caring was an important moment in their relationship and deserved to be mentioned. Also, where did Sonny go at the end? He should have been back at the mansion. 

I know they have budget issues and can accept why some were missing but I do think they should have found the money for Nicole to be there.

      Good Morning, this is still funny to me but I totally enjoyed what makes up "DemetriKane" so unnecessary, who cares?!!! Glad you like the Emma Peel derivative story.

      DAYS: June 2025 Discussion Thread

      By AbcNbc247 · Posted

      A new day in Salem… and a new day for Days.  I like the way everybody found out and absorbed the news about John’s death, and how they all eventually found their way to Marlena’s to offer their condolences. I’m not particularly sure why they waited until the next day to tell everybody but I don’t really mind it.  We finally got Roman’s perspective! His scenes with Kayla were one of the best parts of today. I’m glad that Roman is thankful for everything that John did for his kids. I agree with posters who said that he should’ve had a scene like this with John, but I’m happy we got this at least.  Julie was used very well today too. She’s definitely the best person for Marlena to have scenes with at the moment. Hopefully, Julie continues to be there for her. And yes, I totally agree with Marlena and Belle sending EJ away when he came to the apartment. I’m curious to see what’s going to happen to his and Belle’s relationship in the aftermath of all this. And, while I enjoyed most of Brady and Kristen’s scenes, I still think the ship has sailed for them. Hopefully, the aftermath of John’s death causes Brady to finally end this thing with her once and for all.  And, I see a lot of people were wearing some kind of shade of purple today.

      DAYS: Current&Former actors live video tribute for Drake Hogestyn

      By Wendy · Posted

      Wow, I love that current and former actors are participating in this. I barely recognize Staci Greason! She looks fine, just very different. But I will be happy to hear anecdotes from her. I shipped RoJohn and Isabella hard back in the day, and I sobbed buckets in my dorm room at college when Izzy B passed. Honestly, I'm interested in everyone's stories. Drake seemed like he was well loved among the cast.

      BTG: June 2025 Discussion Thread

      By Alan · Posted

      When she first appeared, I was sure she was setting Tyrell up for a prank. She was too much of a manic pixie dream girl- I wasn't surprised Tyrell also became suspicious. Now I'm not so sure. If Jessica genuinely likes Tyrell, it seems like a missed opportunity to not have started her out as a bully, then we see her gradually catch feelings for Tyrell.  The McBrides are definitely the "C" family of BTG. They always get last priority. There have been a few times where the Doug/Vanessa/Joey characters reference off screen conversations which seem too important to not show us. Like when Doug thanked Joey for giving him extra time to pay off the loan. When did that happen? Or when we abruptly moved from Vanessa/Joey at Uptown to Vanessa/Doug in the hotel room. The McBrides don't even have their own set - even though Vanessa is a realtor. It's a shame because I am a fan of the characters and actors.

      I am also adjusting to KR as Ted but I feel that AM and MJ had way more chemistry as father and daughter than AM and KR. We saw Eva dream of having a real relationship with MJ's version of Ted for months so it's a bit of a bummer not to have that payoff with the original actor except for those scenes in MJ's last episode.  Something I noticed about Eva today is how she takes genuine delight in being a schemer. As badly as she wants to be a Richardson, she still has so much of her mom in her. It was jarring seeing her earnestly promise to steer clear of Leslie in her scene with Ted, then immediately switch attitudes when her mom showed up.  I'm very surprised with how quickly the accident story has been moving along. I was sure that it would be months if not years before people figured out it was Leslie on the motorcycle, not to mention responsible for the potassium overdose. I'm looking forward to seeing how MVJ and Guza avoid writing Leslie into a corner.  Finally, I have been loving the Articulettes story. Bonita Brisker was just the right amount of OTT - remember Sharon is supposed to be even more angry than Tracy is. If Sharon didn't come in swinging, people would say she fell flat. The way Sharon and Tracy describe the breakup is so Supremes-meet-Original Recipe Destiny's Child. I get the sense that MVJ is re-writing the Return to Love Tour as a roman a clef, and I love it. I'm looking forward to finding out what the secret they share is. If Dante Green is as shady as Berry Gordy was, it's something dark. If/when they go through with the reunion, I expect Dante to show up and claim to own the Articulettes trademark in a Lou Pearlman-esque twist.
