I think it is a given that Kayla is not very good at taking DNA samples.  So, I don't trust the results.  But, if nu-Abby turns out to be Gwen (given Leo's phone call), I'm going to have a mini-fit.

Also, I feel like today confirmed my new conspiracy theory.  Streaming services need viewers to watch a certain portion of a show to certify it as being watched.  So, I think that is why they never start the episode from the cliffhanger.  For example, today, we didn't see the fallout from the accident until well into the episode.  I think that they are burying the resolutions so that we have to stream it long enough to count as being watched. 

Finally, it is another example of my favorite game, “What time is it in Salem?”  Drag race is over, Xander is waiting for the final ferry, Small Bar had its last call, but Kayla is still in the office seeing patients and the hospital lab is open and doing DNA tests.

I fast-forward watched the last 3 episodes and thank God... that this show's got new writers coming in couple of months. I was not aware that Bradley Bell was not the worst, but... I guess I was wrong. It's laughably bad and cringe and... feels like a porno without the sex. Disturbing.

Billy Flynn was really good. It takes a lot to make something decent out of that absolute mess -- pretending that might be Abby. How did BF keep a straight face?

Was glad to again get a chance to LMAO at Kayla's doctor skills as she did NOTHING while telling Xander to leave the room and with Sarah lying there like a stiff. No one's checking Sarah, but Kayla does prepare a shot to give her. LOLOLOL

I think I'd have to try out both of them before making a final judgment on that.

I made it to August and this Connie character is really trying to make sure I don’t get any further. Why do we have a serial killer who is so campy and annoying. I should be scared but it’s not like they play her as a serious threat. Of course RC would make a serial killer comic relief.

Sarah is in some sort of crisis almost as much as John and Marlena trade off getting kidnapped. I’m slowly getting caught up and I actually laughed in the episode where Jack and Chad discover John. The show literally can’t think of anything to do with two senior citizens except continuing to have them kidnapped

The fact that both Marlena/John reacted so casually to John being kidnapped again is funny to me.  Sure, they both were mildly concerned and discussed it at the Pub.  Marlena was honestly more concerned with Leo's behavior than the entire John kidnapping.

I wish the show would delve into a real health issue for John/Marlena.  Something more realistic.  It seemed like the show was thinking about it with John's aneurism/brain issues a few years back but it was all dropped.  I think the DHs would do a good job in that type of story but it might be touchy given their own ages.

      DAYS: June 2025 Discussion Thread

      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.

      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.
