Yes, when this whole discussion arose yesterday, I wondered if props recycled the whipped cream for Johnny and Chanel's recent romp?

As the kids say, not to yuck someone's yum, but whipped cream in the bedroom is not sexy to me.  Because I imagine it doesn't smell good in the morning.  Then you have to wash the sheets. Yadda Yadda...

Another weird one.

Tate and Holly are gone? Just like that? I’m sure we’ll see them again but it still seems really weird to me. I’m thinking that this had something to do with the BTS trouble. 

It’s too bad because Theresa’s best scenes were with Tate, even though I think she did well today. I’m still looking forward to what may happen with  Theresa/Alex and everybody. The relapse and her scenes today with Brady add another layer to this storyline. It could go in so many different directions and involve so many others characters and their storylines. Having multiple storylines play out under one big umbrella storyline is always good for soaps. 

As for Konstantin, I still can’t stand him and I really don’t like this rewrite either. 

And, can they at least clean off the blood that’s gushing out of Lucas’ head?

Well, it was incredibly eventful!! So much stuff going on. 

At this point in time I am just thankful for the scab writing! It has made ALL the difference in watching the show!! 

Konstantin is the only false note on the show right now. His aggressiveness toward Steve was a new thing. I'm glad Maggie saw. I put him on par with Leo. They are the two most hated things on the show.

I wanted to say about yesterday that both Tripp & Johnny were shown in their best lights. Turns out that the scabs can write romance, too! 

I forgot to say that Sheri Anderson created the Pawn. Also John Black.

3/10

I'm conflicted about Nicole and Alex asking Maggie's advice on sobriety.  Yes, she's been in the program for a long time, but wouldn't Kayla or Marlena provide more appropriate advice.  Eric's dialogue about DUI was not very natural.  And Theresa breaking the rosary was very James Reilly (although I guess we know he can't be a scab...).

Also, why doesn't Jada want to question Theresa about where she bought her drugs?

And EJ's much more devoted to Holly than Johnny.  I know Holly's in a crisis, but EJ and Johnny haven't spoken in weeks.

Donna, I really can't tell if you're serious or just being facetious LOL  I understand "challenging domestic situations," but I wouldn't expect the entire town of Salem to live under those.

Don't any of these people make a decent salary?

 

Carson Boatman's wife is so lucky.

Kayla and Marlena are both Drs and can afford a kitchen table that's not from Target.   I am pretty sure John is still a millionaire.  I don't have high hopes for the income Black Patch brings in, but all these people are established to be successful.   I can understand a single person not prioritizing a table, but both these couples have their grown ass children living with them too

Even Sloane appeared to have rented a table for her disastrous dinner party.

    • Ah okay, thats what I thought. I was hoping I missed the announcement somewhere. Thanks for the clarification.
    • 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.

    • 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.
    • 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. 
    • Other than hanging out with Liz, all of Lucky's stories have been stalled out or dropped; the relationship with his son; his wanderlust. He hasn't been involved in any of the action/adventure or con artist stuff. I don't think he's even had a scene with Sidwell since the latter came to town. He's a real after thought. I doubt he's long for the show.
