OK, now I'm confused about where's Jack living?!?

He seemed to be visiting from Boston, and then he left to return to Jennifer.  But, today, he comes sauntering into the Horton living room to chat with Chad.  So, where's he been? 

Does he stay at the Devereaux Estate (surely that's been sold off over the years)?  Is he hiding out with Tate and Holly?  Is he renting a room at the Pub? 

And, did anyone notice how dumb Alex was yesterday?  He was trying to be Cool-Stepdad to Tate about fake IDs, and then he inadvertently rats him out to Theresa by saying he saw Tate in the park.  Quel douche.

The Kerry scene went from 0-100 in seven seconds.  And why does Justin have more hair when he appears in Port Charles?

The lighting has a lot to do with it. DAYS' lighting is harsh and overhead while GH's is softer, so there's more reflection on his scalp.

The other thing is the makeup/hair team. The GH makeup team keeps most of the cast's skin very matte, while I think on DAYS the actors do a lot themselves, and it's likely the GH team adds powder to Wally's scalp to make it appear thicker and conceal any scalp.

Always Love me some Leo! Greg was great in today’s show. The actor who plays Kerry: bless his heart. Charity Rhamer awful. Beyond bad. He’s a good looking guy but it was too much for him to remember lines, the directors blocking and taking his shirt off all at once. Cringe.

His final scene with Julie was beautiful. That was definitely one of the few good (but sad) parts of today. And judging by the way that their scene, and the Christmas episode too, were written, I really think Bill, Susan, everyone at Days, etc. knew that Bill was nearing the end of his life. As sad as that is, I’m also glad that they were all able to put that extra effort in and make the scene as good as it was. 

The rest of the episode was… ehhhh

It’s always good to see Marlena, but the way that she’s being used is kinda ridiculous. 

And yeah, still no sympathy for Leo. 

If Uncle wanted people to like him, then maybe he shouldn’t have written him as the worst person ever and as the gay equivalent to Harvey Weinstein.

Actually, the only thing his whining to Marlena did is made me remember how wasted Dimitri/Peter Porte was on Days.

Susan said Bill was completely blind at this point, so yes, I think everyone knew his time was growing short. The scene was very sweet and I'm glad they got to end on such a graceful note. 

I agree with you on the rest of the episode. I don't care about Leo's transformation, Abigail's coffin or Connie's plan. I was intrigued by Bobby/Everett at one point, and I still like Blake Berris' performance, but the story is so convoluted at this point it makes no sense.

Today's episode revealed Connie wants to kill Rafe because she thinks that will help Everett/Bobby get Jada back and this plan is Dumb because Jada would be first person to figure out what Connie is up to and at this moment I'm ready for Blake Berris character to be off the show now his character serves no purpose at all 

Ron must have seen on gh what they did years ago when Franco was almost killed and Elizabeth was suspicious about who could have done it because that is the only explanation I give for this Connie killing plot to kill Rafe just so Everett/Bobby can get Jada back

I have seen Marlena do a lot of crazy things.  I think watching RuPaul's drag race with Leo was an actual character low point for her today.

The rest of the episode was fine.  Doug and Julie were nice.

      DAYS: June 2025 Discussion Thread

      By janea4old · Posted

      On May 27, Johnny spoke to Sami on the phone, and learned that Sami and Sydney were trying to fly in from Sicily, but were stopped by a volcanic eruption because the ash had grounded all the planes.   We discussed on the May thread that ash from Mt. Etna in Sicily caused planes to be grounded in July 2024, just two weeks before Cwikly/Ford took over.  I just discovered that Mt. Etna had another eruption August 15, 2024, which also grounded flights.  And Mt. Etna had been going through "eruptive phases" during a few weeks of May 2025. And that Mt. Etna has been considered "active" since 2022.   Friday May 30, Will said that Sami and Sydney found another flight and will be here soon. Well, Sami and Sydney got out just in time, because … There was (and still is ongoing) a huge eruption of Mt. Etna that began very early Monday morning June 2 Italy time (which would be Sunday night June 1st Chicago time) and a volcanic ash plume had reached an altitude of around 6,400 metres (around 3 or 4 miles high) https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/mount-etna-eruption-volcano-smoke-lava-live-updates-b2761911.html

      Agree to disagree. Like first, love second. OH, agree, agree, agree! Legendary Featherstone, you're not dressing this one well at all. Petite woman with ample bosom, wrong clothes = awful  matronly looking ugh. I'm sorry but I felt hit over the head with everything each of them thought & felt for about 6 more days than I felt I had signed on for.  I don't know you well enough to know if you will know when I'm teasing, so I've just warned you that I am when I say, I hate for you that you haven't actually met Danielle before. LOL. To me it was just a natural take.  I have no problem going back & forth between those two focal sites. But, I am certainly aware that early on I had an expectation of being really into their having 27 sets & that has definitely not been the realization. And, yes, for now, Frank is still heads above any & all others with us & sets IMO.  Huh? Guza gone. I have it in my head that he was only willing to come out of retirement (and presumed mourning) for a "certain amount of time" to help get this new creature launched, but had no desire to stay & so was one of the "over-staffed intentionally" that we were told about. Of course there's been no official word on the circumstances of his leaving.  But, you might mean go with Guza as in a style, if so, ignore the last para.

      I'm so pleased we have such fan engagement about Dani. Reminds me of some other soap characters. I think it's because they are "polarizers" which is a word I may have just made up. They are polarizing on their shows to other characters & to story & they are polarizing in the audience as fans seem to have extreme reactions to them, love & hate, not middling neutrality, ya know? Well, it's a theory.  To me the human being you seek has been amply shown especially to two people & both more or less recently. Her sister bond with Nicole, whoa, has knocked me back & blown me away. And, with Chelsea, over her budding sexual identity and awareness. She gathered instantly that something was up with that daughter & was laser focused on her for several scenes. Then, for a third, she & Pamela have finally, also recently, been so real & genuine & authentic.

      Thanks, Paul, I did not know about his interest in the comedic elements or that he was one of our many people who came from the network! I have always liked Marlena de la Croix's writing, which is not to say I 100% agree with her. She's been a member of my FB soap group for a good long time & she actually posts, which I love. Recently I posted about an e-copy of Robert LaGuardia's SOAP WORLD that is free to borrow like a library e-book but on the Internet Archive site & I posted that at the time of their publications, all of his soap opera books were the gold standard.  She immediately posted about "Bob" who was her close friend & how much she still misses him to this day & that he loved to talk soaps & was also a nice guy, etc. which I was over the moon to have her share about the author & his time etc. like that!!!

      Just more RTD ego trips, seemingly his main reason for coming back.

      RIP to our hero, John Black 

      Please register in order to view this content

      I really wonder why they chose to write this whole ‘John is getting better’ part of the storyline, especially since we all knew what was really going to happen. And I hope we find out the answer someday. But as tough and as tearjerking as today was, it was also really beautiful. And the acting, even though a lot of it if not all of it was real, was spectacular. The flashbacks were beautiful too. I honestly can’t even describe how much I enjoyed today.  Having so many of John and Marlena’s scenes be focused on the two of them and their love story was the right decision. It was a fitting end to John and Marlena. And I’m also glad that John and Steve got to have one last goodbye after everything that happened. As for Bo and Hope and their family, I did think that some parts were a little unnecessary but I really enjoyed Bo’s dream and his reunion with Zack. The acting playing Zack actually did a pretty good job too. Everybody encouraging Bo to fight was really the right decision in this storyline as well.  As for the final minutes of today, be prepared. I actually have tears running down my cheeks as I write this.
