Does anyone else think Lauren Buglioli talks too softly? I get she's supposed to be a pampered princess, but I can't connect to her performances because I always feel like she needs more grit or something. She needs to be more ferocious for me. More of a firecracker, because she's coming off like less than a sparkler. I will say bringing on Tracy was exactly what Anita needed because she's been all stoic all the time. Seeing her be infallible made her feel human, rootable, and relatable. This was the first episode where I feel like the new Ted had settled in well. Pretty good for a near immediate recast. -
I agree -- Wally Kurth was good in the brief moments they gave him. So was Lisa LoCicero. I'm glad the writers remembered that Ned matters here. As much as I appreciated today's episode, I also think Gio should have had scenes beyond the replay of the reveal scene. Cutting just the scenes of Joss discussing Gio would've opened up some time. -

Nice to see such an early clip of Meg Bennett. I could see Janice fitting into the more neurotic type Patti had been. And she was also closer to the right age range. -

Pretty much my exact sentiments. The good DAYS are here again! We are so back! Rejoice! Viva la Salem! (Am I being too extra?) To add to this, Ari being immediately dick hungry made me instantly like her. I think Julie's scenes today added so much, too. They could have easily not been part of the episode, but it just added to the emotional stakes. Was her flashback part of the CoD story? And that little scene Maggie had with Philip earlier in the week added so much heart to drama of that story. Matriarchs are so back! When Kayla had to tell Marlena that John was hurt again, I couldn't help but think back to when she went off on Bo for leaving Roman to go after Stefano. I wonder if they'll have her go off on someone like Kayla or Steve and initially blame them for John's death. It should be stated Kristian Alfonso still looks amazing, but I did think it was ridiculous that she was wearing a Chanel suit to go help with the dangerous mission, but it was good to see her be part of it while we had Kayla and Marlena sitting back and waiting for the best. The only part I didn't like was Ciara mentioning how great Ben is. Not buying sis, but the fact Konefal returned and immediately was crying her eyes out was impressive. Since Hope mentioned her, I wonder if we'll get a Chelsea return next week? Also, during Bo's dream/purgatory scenes, did anyone think we were going to see a return from a dead character? Isabella or Zack since he was mentioned in the episode would have been a good shout or both. I can't think of a better one where the actor hasn't also passed. I can't decide if that John Black montage were the most emotional moment of the episode, but holy f*ck was it bittersweet to see Drake Hogestyn back on my screen again. Phew! Again, a great week, and a fantastic episode to finish it off. -

Meg Bennett as a contestant on Three On A Match (1971). I remember Meg saying on a 80's Pyramid appearance that she was a contestant on this show and said it furnished her first apartment in New York as a struggling actress. She started in SFT in 1973.Please register in order to view this content
I wonder how Janice Lynde would have been as Patti ? Robert Reed seemed pissy in everything he did outside of the Brady projects. Ironically, he thought the BB was beneath his talents a serious actor.Please register in order to view this content

This entire week has been really good! First starting with Xander beating up Philip. I too didn't expect to see Xander get so violent, by kicking Philip numerous times. And I didn't expect Philip to tell Xander that "Sarah knew," which lead to Wednesday's wonderful scenes with Xander/Sarah confronting each other. I think those scenes were definitely Lindsay's best acting that she's done on the show. I'm not really a huge fan of Sarah/Xander as a romantic couple - I don't hate them either. But Lindsay and Paul do have a ton of acting chemistry and these scenes proved that. I don't read spoilers so I had no idea Bo/Hope were going to be on today. That was a nice surprise. Same with Ciara showing up. I totally forgot Ciara has two kids with Ben. I liked how she talked about them and Zack. I've always liked Victoria Konefal and thought she did a good job today. And yes, I didn't mind seeing Ciara's usual cleavage shot during those emotional scenes. Thank you, wardrobe department! LOL Could the lead up to John's death have been better? Sure. But I didn't hate it. I liked that John's final act was saving Bo's life. And that full circle moment at the hospital with Marlena was poetic. I was starting to get a bit teary eyed during today's episode. Next week is going to be tough.Please register in order to view this content
I don't know if John getting blown up to pieces would've been the right idea. -

Audra and Imani fighting over Nate could’ve been fun…if written by the BTG writers of course!
