Looked a the trailer again and noticed that Bill's daughter is against him too. The Duprees are set to be a strong united front. In the punching scene I also noticed that Anita is just standing there as Dani punches Hayley and doesn't seem to be trying to intervene.

Honestly, Hayley seems like a much more sympathetic character to me after this trailer. They might be labeling her as the "homewrecker" but it seems as if she and Bill did genuinely fall in love, and all Hayley is craving is acceptance from her new community that has automatically disregarded her because of the affair and the power the Dupree's wield in said community. IMO, I also think the Dupree's constantly berating/slut-shaming her is going to make her look a lot more sympathetic to the audience, which I have to wonder if that's intentional or not. 

In a way, she is the CBS Daytime successor to Brooke Logan, lol (at least when Brooke was genuinely sympathetic, which I did think she was in the first decade or so of B&B).

I completely agree with all of this.

All this time I was siding with Dani, but after watching the second trailer, I now side with Hayley too, which is good. For now, I'm 50/50 on who will be my favorite, but I have sympathy for Hayley already. I did not expect that going in. That said, Bill (Timon Durrett) is a find. He may be playing the bad guy/villain, but I'm here for it!

Like I said: He was fine as a cheater on Queen Sugar and he's fine here! I still think he and Dani might end up back together. But I share both of your suspicions re: Hayley. I guess we'll see.

Considering Naomi Hamilton Hawthorne (Arielle Prepetit) inherited Anita's gift for singing, I am sure that sways her more to the Dupree family over the Hamiltons. Makes me wonder if maybe Chelsea Hamilton (RhonniRose Mantilla) leans more to Bill than Dani (even if Dani has a presence)?

He has a commanding presence that is not going to be ignored. Kind of love it. He's definitely the villain in this story from my perspective, and I know he is going to EAT!

I am sure a fair amount of flip-flopping may happen, although, I'm also praying it'd be an organic type of thing.

It looks like the typical soap dynamic of the wife being more sympathetic and fragile while the mistress is more bold and unrepentant has somewhat been flipped. Brooke would sometimes fall into feeling sorry for herself and excusing her behavior because of "destiny" and I can see vibes of Hayley going in that direction.

With Dani pushing Chelsea's career maybe a little too hard it's probable that she will lean more towards Bill if he is the parent putting less pressure on her.

    • Yes and I also loved how she focused on Chelsea and Naomi when she spilled Bill's involvement in all of this.
    • Danny: Don't drink it. Just hold it. Rocco drinks three laced cups.

    • OH, I AM.   And it looks like it's a pretty good episode so I might watch later on this weekend after work cuz I see a lot of scenes with people I actually like. Very happy to see Rocco/Danny appear to be getting story, too. 
    • I do agree that a revival of EON would work, if it doesn't fall into doing all of the typical soap opera tropes... which it became guilty of in the final few years of the show with the over abundance of Raven/Sky at the expense of the actual detectives, police, etc. And I know it was mentioned earlier that Raven had lost any true connections on the show with the death of her on screen mother, and the loss of April/Draper/Deborah.. and I do agree with that. I actually thought the show would have done something with the Shelley character that could have connected her to the Raven character.  There were a few scenes where the two would have scenes and size one another up before they would go their separate ways.. so I assumed perhaps they would have been revealed as half-siblings and/or perhaps cousins.  Alas.. not to be.
    • It definitely flowed beautifully. So much that I was annoyed when Vanessa/Doug because I wanted to get back to the party. I know it was intentional to build up tension and suspense. It worked. lol. I'm glad it was there in hingsight because it gave us that great conversation between Doug and Vanessa. Foreshadowing? And yesss!!! This episode was sooo old school soap giving beat after beat after beat leading up to the unveiling of Eva as Ted's daughter. And we still have plenty of fallout/aftereffects to work through.   Speaking of...Bill, Bill, Bill lol. Good to have confirmation HE was the scary lawyer.   I'm sure I will have a busy Monday, but I can't wait for it. I don't know what I'm looking forward to more. Probably Anita vs Silk Press Sheila tbh. And yes, I feel they will be matching each other 'blow for blow.' 
    • And if they go there, it could also be tied to Johnny completely cutting him off, possibly going to work for Titan, etc.
    • @AbcNbc247 maybe it is just that they've gone to that well too often, and I don't like when DAYS goes dark, but I'm OK with EJ abusing drugs, and just skipping the whole sobriety part. Side note: experiencing hallucinations of my son killing me would be enough for me to never want to take a pill again.

    • Part of the reason that Courtney worked at OLTL was because the show had an actual character for her to play.  One that was somewhat different than her character on AW, and after the way she was treated over at AW.. it had to have been nice to be courted onto a new soap that actually valued your contributions.  
    • I figured the "long" was already implied
