Actually November 29 on Hallmark!😍😂

I was just thinking & wondering if any of you have something of the standard trappings of the show that just annoys you beyond normal irritation?! For me it is in the opening when Marlena says, "This is unethical!"

Well, the day we knew would arrive is finally here and let me start by once again, saying, poor Javi. 

Why would anyone bring in a young, handsome new character with tons of potential just to pair him with the worst character on the show? The worst character that, after six years, is literally the albatross to end all albatrosses and who pretty much only has like three fans. This is why people get fired lol

And I definitely wasn’t here for Leo crying about all his failed relationships to Alex. 

Btw, people still share drinks in this post-pandemic world? 

I’m actually am liking Chanel/Johnny/Joy now, even though I still think that the way they’re writing Joy and Nancy’s relationship is ridiculous. I really don’t like the overbearing mother/eye rolling, dismissive child trope. Especially in this case because it sometimes makes this storyline feel forced again and it didn’t need to be and still doesn’t. But I’m still glad that they’re continuing to write a mystery as to whether Johnny and Joy had sex. That could lead to something good happening.

Is that Chandler?!

It seems like people are liking Javi, but I find him absolutely obnoxious.   I am trying to give the character a chance- I just really haven't found him endearing or funny.  He seems like an entitled brat.  Something about the way he's jealous of Rafe, tried to keep the ring, but is perfectly fine staying at Rafe's house for free without asking Rafe is off putting.  That being said I don't wish Leo on anyone lol.  

I guess it's too early to make a judgement on Javi and it's nice for Gabi to have someone to talk to.  I just am not a fan so far.

Agreed the Nancy/Joy stuff feels odd.  Every return it's like Nancy's regressed more to who she was years ago when she came to town.  Like I said earlier, I don't think Nancy's ever had the strongest character point of view, but this seems especially cliche and lacking depth.

The same things bothered me about Javi, also. Plus. I am one who is not yet 100% sold on NuGabi. I especially did not like her trying to blame EJ for Stefan moving on & out. Also, and this is gonna get boring, I'm afraid. But, Aaron, yesterday, was driving me crazy. Their family structure  makes  no sense. He didn't know their mother is alive. Then, he didn't even know that F'Abby (Cat) is his sister. What in hell is wrong with their family? And, furthermore, did Joy & Johnny have sex? Inquring minds want to know. And, as usual, don't even let me get started on Leo. 

 

If I understood yesterday correctly, Aaron thought both his parents died in the car accident.  He knew Cat, his sister, was alive but she was in a clinic recovering from major injuries.  So the assumption is Cat recovered with multiple surgeries and just didn't reveal herself to Aaron/Felicity and they wouldn't recognize her because she looked different.  At some point Clyde told Mark/Cat that their mother was still alive and that's how they started the Chad plan.  Neither Aaron nor Felicity knew their mother was alive.

We don't know if Joy/Johnny had sex.  The show is keeping it vague.

If I am being honest, since revealing herself as Cat, I am noticing some scarring on her face that I hadn't realized prior. Unless I am utterly blind and it was always there. Perhaps that's part of the surgeries?

I think it's ALM's own acne scars tbh.  They've always been there.  I think the actress herself is just confident enough to not cover them up.  I don't think it's part of the story.

I agree with everything you've said here. I was just frustrated with their family dynamic yesterday! So I was more or less venting.

It was a little confusing.  The show explained it, but there were a lot of gaps and holes in the way they laid the Greene family dynamic out.  I am not sure if it's rewrites, bad writing, backstages issue or all of the above.  I feel like the way the show introduced the Greenes is very different from what actually ended up being their backstory.

Damn… Tate’s a lot more open than I would be lol 

But I’m glad that he had someone to talk to about the mess he’s gotten himself in to. Him and Brady actually do have good father-son chemistry. I like the way it was all written too. Tate was very self aware of the mistakes that he made and he didn’t come off as being selfish and unfeeling in regards to Sophia, and that kind of writing is always a good thing. And it helped us build a lot of sympathy for Sophia as well. There weren’t any biases in the writing today and I hope that continues.

I didn’t expect Tate to confess everything to Holly so quickly, but I’m still looking forward to seeing how this all plays out. Leo Howard’s acting in those scenes between Tate and Holly definitely needed some work though lol he needs to add more emotion and more depth into scenes like that.

I should have expected Kate to double cross Vivian. There’s no way she would have kept quiet about Vivian being in Salem, especially after all they’ve been through. But Kate staying quiet about Victor’s letter being forged could lead to something good happening, for every character involved in this storyline. Just drop the friggin campiness because that’s the one thing that’s screwing up this storyline. 

And, Javi’s got some nice moves 😊

Hopefully, the rivalry/jealousy of Rafe isn’t dropped. That was actually a pretty interesting trait that Javi had and it could lead to something really good happening. I like the way that he was there for Gabi today and that he encouraged her to talk to Stefan. Since this storyline is pretty much unfinished, I wonder if Stefan will be brought back at some point, either played BB or a recast.

And yes, Javi is being written kinda similar to Leo, which could get really annoying at some point but the difference is that (Sorry, Greg Rikaart) Javi is young. He’s supposed to be immature and messy, in some ways. 

And the cliffhanger was good too… even though it highlighted what lousy cops Rafe and Jada are 😂😂😂

Just quoted everything😂

Tuesday's episode was good!

JPL acting is still horrible.

Javi is so cute but he reminds a lot of Leo.

And yes Javi has some nice dance moves.😂😍

I enjoyed the Hernandez scenes as well.
