Hmmmm… Dimitri’s getting out of prison? 

I wonder if we’ll see him again. I haven’t heard any spoilers about Peter Porte coming back. I guess it would be nice to see him again, despite his storyline being one of the worst I’ve ever seen and a complete waste of him. Btw, who goes to supermax prison for only like 6 months? 

I’m glad that Nicole is now going to be working at the Spectator though. The character works a lot better when she’s not just a Dimera wife. Her first possible story about EJ and Paulina is a little stupid but I wouldn’t mind this being tied to Eric/Sloan somehow. After today, maybe Eric could ask to Nicole to investigate Sloan and Leo. 

As for Johnny/Chanel, the radiation storyline is still stupid but at least it looks like there’s gonna be some after effects from it. 

And based on the spoilers, I think we all know where they’re gonna end up living.

@AbcNbc247 So, you don't think Lucas should live the rest of his life as a monk?

Where's Alex this morning?  Wasn't that the point of he and Kristen sleeping together?

Also, newspapers in Salem hire their reporters from the classified section?  Or is that an HR thing, since the last guy they hired is living a double life?

Finally, I bet ten cents that the writers are using lethargy as a symptom of radiation poisoning rather than discolored skin because it is the cheapest to visualize.

In regards to Lucas, I think this is when I find the absence of Sami problematic.  I feel like the show really has no use for Lucas unless he's in a story with Sami.  I know the show tries to explain her absence away with silly excuses a lot, but there is no way I believe Sami would never meet the woman her son married twice and her daughter dated, not meet her twin brothers wife or son, or not try to sabotage EJ/Nicole in some way. 

I have never been the biggest Ali or Sami fan, but her presence on the canvas is pretty large.  At some point I wonder if the show would consider recasting her.

Sometimes, I think it depends on who the writer or producer was/is at the time.

I had no problem when they paired Lucas with Chloe. It was something different for him and it seemed to work, for a while anyway. And it was definitely a lot better than him being completely ruined and then being written out in order to prop Sami/EJ. 

The pairing with Adrienne wasn't that bad either.

I completely forgot he was paired with Adrienne lol.  I liked his pairing with Chloe too.

I just think the writers lack ideas with Lucas and I think it has a lot to do with the fact he's not a traditional looking leading man.  But also he has no children currently on the show.  

I am not advocating a Sami recast necessarily, but if they can't get Ali I would be okay with it.  I genuinely think her presence is missing on the canvas especially with

I've enjoyed Lucas as a dad.  But, beyond his romantic life, he needs a base of power.  I still think of Lucas as the spoiled brat from military school.  However, now that he doesn't seem to have an endless flow of resources, he's a bit less interesting. 

If he could legitimately oppose EJ or be a threat to the Kiriakis clan, then he would have a purpose.  But, to me, the actor is not charismatic enough for me to wish for a romantic pairing just to keep him within the story.

Hehe. I was just picking a bit. But I know people would be shocked if they did. Because when you think Sami you think Ali. Okay, I do, too. lol. 

 

Wow. Nicole still hasn't exited yet? They really do write long term, don't they? So was her exit at least written by the scabs or RC? 

 

Also very true.


And see? THAT would be very easy to do. Because there have been several times when Lucas was not on the canvas. And single. Heck, they could say he got a girl preggers during miltary school.

       about it I think Jan is a fine supporting part for a solid daytime vet (probably someone from the P&G soaps), as opposed to someone from the production location who is clearly cheaper. Which seems to govern some casting. I get the rationale, but I would start going through the ATWT/GL, etc. rolodex myself.

      I dont mind Jan. She's good in the minor capacity she is used.

      tbqh I don't care about Jan, I don't care about Ashley and I think Jon Lindstrom as Joey is an acquired taste. Jon is a great actor but certain things are in his zone and then some are not. Some days I find Joey credible and compelling, but the stuff with him hanging around the Golden Corral, grumbling about Doug and bitching at Randy is not amazing. If he had material on par with what MVJ wrote for Ryan/Kevin on GH back in the day it'd be a different story. I do think he has real chemistry with Vanessa, which is in large part due to MVJ clearly molding that character (and hiring an appropriate actor) in the Lucy Coe vein when she reinvented Lucy in the '90s as well. But I am not here to spend 6+ months watching Jon glower a lot (which is what he's doing half the time to carry weak story) and make more vague dire pronouncements while Jen Jacob gets flustered and weepy over "Daddy" or whatever would come of that storyline. Putting them together sounds like a recipe for doom to me. But I may be in the minority on that.

      This perfomer would have been good in that role

      I know this will never happen. But... Halle Berry as Dani Dupree(BTG). She would rock this role, it's in her wheelhouse.

      When I see how bad the Ashley/Derek scenes are, I know there must be a larger purpose and Joey being her father is the thing that makes the most sense.  My take on it is that Ashley knows Joey is her father but doesn't know Joey. Maybe he was there when she was a child or just not around at all but I believe Jan when she says she didn't lie to her daughter about who her father was. Maybe she left him when she discovered his dangerous lifestyle.  I do think they could really jump start the character of Ashley if they hurry and do this. Jan is a great character and her scenes with Ashley have been helpful. This would further integrate Ashley into the canvas and give her something dramatic to do. With her working at the hospital along with Doug, it could lead to complications if she learns Doug is involved with her father. I just need is sooner rather than later because Derek is tanking her character. I need a distraction.

      The stories are awful. I'm not enjoying any of them. All I'm left with is Sally in a plastic dress.

      I loved your rambling because you had some good thoughts.  Stopped watching Y&R years ago so can't comment on that, as far as Lame is concerned. No cares in the world.
