I always thought that that side of the Pub was a window 

I think that was the reason why I actually liked it

Oh, I like them both too

It’s the writing for RSW that’s always been the biggest problem for me. And I can’t help but think that this storyline is gonna be so biased against Philip.

Today wasn’t as good as yesterday but I also didn’t think it was bad.

And it was nice to see some annoying characters be shut down again. WTG, Chanel! And, WTG again, Javi!

The Alex/Leo scene was totally unnecessary. I would have much rather have seen Alex deal with Philip, Stephanie, Xander, etc. than this crap. There are literally just two people in the world who want this, and since they were both on the writing team, they don’t really count lol. If they want Alex to have a gay bestie, it should be his brother. But with Leo still around, I guess it’s a good thing that Sonny’s not on the canvas. 

The Chanel/Johnny/Joy scenes were ok, but I find myself hoping that Joy is actually a villain, putting on the innocent act as a way of breaking up Johnny and Chanel and having Johnny all to herself. Having this all be an elaborate scheme on Joy’s part would be a great twist.

I didn’t expect EJ to try to get Joy out of Salem, and I don’t mind it either. It’s actually a pretty interesting dynamic. And could somehow come back to haunt EJ if Joy turns out to be a scheming villain

And, I had a feeling that Rafe was gonna end up at BlackPatch, but I still think they’re missing an opportunity to cause conflict for Rafe and Jada by having him leave the force.

Still not ready for tomorrow though.

It was odd that we didn't pick up on Philip's cliffhanger from yesterday about ousting Xander.  Especially with Alex leaving the pub.  It seemed like he had new information, but I guess he was just referencing his lawsuit.

Leo is ridiculous.  He worked with Chad, who I'm sure would just tell him who Lady Whistleblower is currently. 

Overall, I'm enjoying the contrast of those at the pub, versus the Hernandez and Dimera clans.  Although, EJ's devotion to his son runs hot and cold.

I'm looking forward to all of the returns.  Even though it will be for a sad cause (and they'll inevitably be too short).

    • I think the arrival of the Spauldings (Alan/Elizabeth/Phillip) caused the erosion of Sara's character on the show since Elizabeth took over Sara's place in the whole Justin/Jackie story.  Sara's brief marriage to another deceptive man sounded like it paled in comparison to the previous deceptive man story that she had played the decade beforehand.. and it was probably done because of the whole Alan/Jackie/Mike/Elizabeth cluster that took off story wise.   I know the show had introduced Brandy, the woman Justin cheated on Jackie with... but I don't believe she lasted more than a year.. and didn't make much of an impression. While the Dobson's were good at writing/juggling multiple characters/stories.. they weren't perfect though they did manage to make use of characters not in the front burner like Sara, Ann, etc. I do know that Sara/Adam looked to be starting up at the end of the Dobson era with a jealous/regretful Barbara looking on.. which played out during the Roger/Holly rape story and Hollys prison story.   I don't know if Marland was as inspired by that story when he took over
    • If you ever make it to the Paley Center in NYC (fka Museum of TV and Radio), in their viewing room, you can watch Days 1/1/73 featuring Denise Alexander as Susan. It’s her last month on the show before switching to GH.
    • Overall I was impressed with this week and fall out from the revealation.  I am looking forward to seeing the Nicole/Dana showdown next week.  I do wonder if June is going to be tied to Hayley.  
    • I thought Adam and Sara got married? Although I do not remember any mention of her when Adam returned for Blake's weddings. But MA certainly got the short end of the stick storywise, as Marland's obsession with therapy reared it's head. 
    • Didn’t Meg Bennett return to SFT as a writer in the last few years. I always wondered if they tried to get her back as Liza.
    • Millette Alexander got the short end of the stick once they killed off Joe. The Justin thing was a non-starter. Then she was briefly married to Alan's corrupt lawyer and HE was killed off. She was paired briefly with Adam and that ended because she believed Holly over Roger about the rape. Definitely, Marland had zero interest in her except as the therapist for the many, many of his female characters who needed therapy. It's not odd she left the show. One of the rare 1978 episodes on YT shows Alan going to Cedars for a physical check-up. He ends up with Sarah as his doctor. In between making mysoginistic comments about women doctors, he also openly flirts with her. It's very obvious they were chem testing Sarah and Alan. It's a really good scene. Bernau is both obnoxious and charming and Millette is amazing, trying to be pleasant and profesional without rolling her eyes at him, but at the same time maybe a LITTLE bit attracted to him. An interesting what-might-have-been. So it appears the Dobsons were actively looking for someone to pair her with, they just never found the right one for a long-term story.
    • I'm happy to read whatever you provide, @Paul Raven.
