Are you trolling us with this? Leo ruins every storyline he's in.

I like Leo. You can disagree and that’s fine. It’s not trolling. I enjoy watching Leo.

Why is Clyde not dead?

I’m glad that he’s leaving but he needs to die, not just be in a coma. Seriously, enough is enough. I swear I think the only reason Ron kept him around was because he needed a villain that he wasn’t hot for. Or because he felt he needed a supervillain. But if you think about it, no soap needs a supervillain anymore. I do like that type of character but honestly, the days of Stefano, Victor, Helena, James, etc. are over. In the case of Days, these clowns like Clyde and Konstantin could never compare to Stefano and Victor anyway. Plus, there are plenty of characters on the canvas already who can be a villain. Hopefully, Clyde doesn’t pop up again in these final months of Ron’s run and hopefully, the new writers forget he ever even existed. 

But overall, I enjoyed today. There were a lot of sweet family and friends moments, especially with Steve and Kayla. And I also liked Gabi comforting JJ when he revealed that he felt he was letting Abigail down.

Tate, Holly and Aaron were really nice too, even though I still think Tate and Holly are dicks because of everything that happened with Sophia 😂 But I really liked them helping out Aaron today. And even though the actor still needs work, I’m liking Aaron’s characterization. He’s a sweet kid. Btw, it’s definitely time to get Mark out of prison. I’m still not sure how he can be charged in Salem for a crime that took place in Paris.

Clyde is not dead/dead because we still can't have nice things. I was SO displeased when they said he was in a coma!

OMG, you can say that again. For starters, both Stefano & Victor were in their own ways, class acts. Scary, sure, but, not hokey. Both Clyde & Konstantin could've been country bumpkins.

May these words fly from your keyboard to the soap god's universal script.

I found the show to be overall pretty saccharine.

 All of them are fairly worthless to me. None of them really work, at least not to me.

Just finished watching yesterday's episode. It was a utter mess.

The Leo/Kerry/Javi scenes were horrible. Can they just kill off Leo and send Greg Rikkart packing?

The Cat and Chad scenes with her mother were just as bad.

Clyde is such a wimp of a villain.

The best part of the episode was Cat's mom shooting Clyde.

The woman playing Cat's mom was a choice of casting. Whew.

Two things

1. A coma doesn't result from a bullet to the chest.
2. I reiterate, how long have the Greene's lived in Salem, right near John and Steve?

Well, Sophia really was the breakout star of that group 😂😂

More than Tate or Holly

I just find it hard to believe there aren't more talented teens or young adults that could be cast.

I actually like the actor that plays Aaron

Aaron, Holly & Tate were good today

The actor that plays Aaron is not good at acting, but he's endearing and charming so I don't mind him.  The awkwardness sort of works for the character at this point.  He seems like a real teen while Holly/Tate are too composed for their troubles.

Sofia is the star here though.  I love her.

Yep. He was good in his first run, and that's it. There are about 160,000 actors in SAG, and DAYS latches onto villains as if no one else could fill that role.

I just feel as if Clyde who sexually abused his daughter Jordan, should’ve never stayed this long, but writers glossed over the Jordan abuse and kept on trying to make him even more dastardly all for the sake of plot. It’s as if Curtis Reed/Paul Mendez (Nicole’s dad) stayed on for years outsmarting the likes of Victor and Stefano.

As much as I make fun of the writing, Gabi was able to articulate how I felt about Abigail.   She is at peace, regardless of where her body lays, and that is what is important.

I assume that's not the end of Caterina, or is it?  I mean, is Cat going to go back to Salem while her Mom is in jail in Vancouver?  Cat mentioned it was self-defense, but that's a stretch, given that Clyde was unarmed with three guns trained on him while he was shot.

And now that they've hired another doctor (although I still don't know why Sarah doesn't go back to work), is that the end of Dr. Mark Greene?

But, welcome to the tribe Greene family, it is always good to have one family on a soap celebrating Hanukkah, (even if they celebrate “both” as Aaron said).  I still don't get how Aaron and Felicity are paying the bills.  And, I will ask it every day until we get an explanation, did Caterina live in Salem this whole time right under John, Steve, and Konstantin's nose?

The Philip and Xander crushes were on full display today 😍😂😂

But I’m enjoying all of this. This is one umbrella storyline that I could definitely get behind 😂

I like that it involves so many characters and has so many smaller storylines underneath it. The only thing I’d say is that maybe they should have waited a little before Philip and Xander went to court; that way everyone’s storylines could progress a little more, leading to a big explosive reveal in court. But whatevs, I’m looking forward to seeing what happens. And I’m still wondering if something gonna happen between Xander and Stephanie.

I liked the Belle/Brady scenes too. They have really good sibling chemistry and it’s good to see they each have someone to talk to about their failed love lives. And I really like that it looks like Belle is gonna end up being Philip’s lawyer in his case. Though I’d prefer it if they didn’t give us Shawn/Belle/Philip 58.0 lol I like what this could lead to for all three of them in their own personal storylines, especially Shawn’s. 

Speaking of Shawn, I’m glad that Shawn is back on the force and is working with Jada again. Days missed a great opportunity to do something with the two of them the last time they were on the canvas together and I hope they take that chance now. Maybe 

Spoiler

A Shawn/Jada affair was the spoiler that Al Calderon was talking about a few months ago 

The Ava/Kristen showdown was ok. The problem with all this though is that it’s making Kristen look so pathetic and desperate. This character is stuck in a deep rut and I’m hoping everyday that she’s finally given something different to do once the new writers come in.
