I love that Lucas was somehow the bad guy today because Drew and Willow are “in wuv”. Drew is such a slimeball. He genuinely doesn’t care one bit how anyone feels about banging his nephew’s wife.

Laura seems strangely calm about Lulu going off on her own.

BLQ wearing that hoodie in the bedroom while her hubby just had on a t shirt. My god, AS is DETERMINED to play a character that we’re supposed to believe enjoys sex, is as sexless looking as possible.

Intrigued by whatever Emma is hiding. 

Well Lulu still sucks for abandoning one of her kids for the other and making him lie for her. I guess good for Lulu never having to experience pregnancy weight gain or giving birth.

Sonny with chest pains YES!

There's modesty and there is ridiculousness.  Does anyone where a sweatshirt to bed?  Unless it's like freezing cold and you have no heat?  That just seems uncomfortable and hot.  At least put a t-shirt, a tank top or a sleep shirt on to make it believable.

I am mildly intrigued by what Emma is hiding, but I have the belief it will be a minor scandal for a few months and Emma will just turn into a regular heroine like every other legacy child on the show.  I am cynical I suppose.

I don't disagree with your Lulu point.  Just saying all Lulu's kids have wacky backstories that have nothing to do with her ever giving birth to them

I think Charlotte was an Altman/Passanante special.  Claudette (Bree Williamson) carried the baby and Nathan and Griffin?/Chase? (they are the same person to me) were teased as the father.  Claudette also slept with Valentin too, but that's not even the point of anything because she was just the surrogate to Lulu/Valentin's embryo situation.  Frank really tried to make Bree Williamson happen on GH lol.

Charlotte was Passanante/Altman. All to cement their and Frank's precious Valentin. But Ron also had a love for surrogate magic babies. IMO RC had likely been setting up the captive Robin carrying Lulu and Stavros' freeze-dried kid or something before he was fired based on the multiple embarrassing Stavros-related capers he did in 2013 and (I think) 2014 - he had Stavros obsessed with Lulu as his new 'Ice Princess' bride he wanted to impregnate, and they faced off with him the second time at the Crichton-Clark clinic where IIRC Drew/NuJason was also being held with Robin (pre-Billy Miller casting). Anyway, thank God that didn't come to fruition.

It's amazing to me how quickly she came and went, for someone who Frank adored. They must've gotten feedback on Claudette that rivaled anthrax because she vanished. I think she's supposed to be dead offscreen today? That character is even stranger to me than Jessica Tuck's art dealer/crime boss/whatever, who unlike Claudette/Bree did keep coming back. And Jessica Tuck could've actually played an interesting villain on this show.

I think it's partly intentional, to show how impulsive and rash she still is. I don't love her journeying off to find the mutant hellspawn but I understand it.

I don't believe Bree or Claudette ever belonged on the show, but that had to be one of the strangest character introductions I have ever seen.   The paternity saga was not only confusing, but involved Nathan, Griffin, and Valentin.  None of these males were captivating or long running enough to make me care.  Then all of a sudden the show forgets everything they told us for the last months about Claudette and just makes Charlotte Lulu/Valentin's baby.  Claudette wasn't a defined character to begin with and they just kept throwing more backstory on top of her.  I have doubts any actress could make that character work and certainly not Bree with her moderate level of talent and popularity.

I am not sure I have ever heard someone say they liked Claudette and if they did it was because they like Bree Williamson-not the character.

It's insanity to me that Valentin is still on the show all these years later.  I know JPS rarely appears and he usually crying about something, but none of his stories have been good.  I still don't know what/who/why Pikeman exists and that went on for over a year.

    • Put me in the minority in being happy about Cat not being Abby. After the two adult recasts played tag with the role, it's time for a few years of rest. I have a huge list of things I hate about RC's writing, but that choice was not one of them. 
    • Except she never worked there at all and barely even knew where the Chancellor Industries plant was located  In 1980, Kay attempted to install Derek Thurston (her third husband) in a position at Chancellor Industries.  The show introduced a character named George Packard who'd supposedly been running Chancellor since Phillip's demise in 1975.  (George Packard's storyline in 1980 was attempting to keep Derek Thurston from bankrupting the company.)   We didn't hear much of anything about Chancellor Industries for the next twenty-five years.  Then, at that point, we met Eliot Hampton (?) who'd been running the company for decades and had been embezzling from it.  Jill took it upon her herself to oust Eliot Hampton (?) and take control of the company.  That's when Kay became actively involved in the management of the company.  From 1974 till 2004 Kay Chancellor was strictly a hands-off owner.  It was downright absurd that the last ten years of life, she was written as this formidable businesswoman who'd always been involved in Chancellor Industries.  
    • Well, it's going to be something when he finds out the truth.  Agreed.  On that note, I can't until it all comes out. I find Lulu to be ridiculous. 
    • I almost posted this because that was my initial reaction too:  this is weird/cringe, to sing around a piano after such a huge family shattering bomb was dropped.  But I got over that and just enjoyed her voice, the song and the montage we saw as everyone's emotions in the aftermath were pouring out.
    • The Equalizer original series was not a big hit yet it became a movie franchise and got a reboot series. The Equalizer reboot lasted 5 seasons, so one season longer than the original series.
    • Today is Sean Freeman's birthday

      His social media/IMDb doesn't have his age but from some posts he's made, I'm guessing 1989 is his birth year.
    • Here's the timeline, as I recall it being published. The WGA strike was 5/2–9/27/2023 Annalynne McCord was announced as being hired in December 2023, for a one-year contract https://deadline.com/2024/06/days-of-our-lives-when-to-expect-annalynne-mccord-peacock-1235975806/ RonC's first scripts back from the strike began airing May 31, 2024 (around Konstantine & Maggie's wedding) https://www.tvinsider.com/1137709/days-of-our-lives-writers-return-15000th-episode-storylines/ Her first air date was June 19th 2024. The actress has said she was not told who she would be playing until she started taping. RonC 's replacements were announced July 2024, with his scripts airing through April 2025 Side note: DAYS social media team seems to be playing fast and loose with BTS videos, in terms of how far in advance they film content (e.g. their April Fools' Joke videos were clearly not filmed on 4/1/25), so we shouldn't assume anyone's current status, versus those who were there nine months ago.
    • April and her husband (Draper) are the "young leads" who tie all the storyline threads together.  They're normally in the center of the action.  In this particular storyline, Draper is the attorney who represents Paige Madison.  (The district attorney, Logan Swift, has given Paige Madison "temporary immunity from prosecution" if she will lead the police to the members of the Tobias Gang who stole the firearms.  But Paige mainly just ducks bullets from various gang members who pop-up to assassinate her.)    
    • It's one thing to post about a soap's rumors or gossip, which in point of fact we've all done. It's another to present yourself as the inside source who knows something to be fact that's about to break wide, then backtrack and call it just Twitter speculation. Between those two extreme poles you have to commit to one or the other. If I got something wrong, I'd say it. (Nor would I keep playing insider after what I pulled with Drake Hogestyn, which should've gotten someone permanently banned.) And regardless, you don't open with this 'news' you don't actually want to stand by yet by mocking DRW's extremely valid concerns re: how the Trina character and Tabyana Ali has been marginalized and put out to virtual pasture ever since the day NAC left. Her playing out her current contract in a C-storyline with Kai does not change that.
