New Sophia.... Yikes!!

The Fake Rafe and Jada scenes were just ridiculous. Is she that stupid that she doesn't know it isn't Rafe?

I'm glad I skipped last week.

The romance was on full display today, and I enjoyed the sweetness and nerdiness of it all, especially Steve and Kayla

I really enjoyed the flashbacks and the strolls down memory lane as well. 

And, Johnny looked hot at the beginning

Too bad that he and Chanel can’t have a baby yet. I really wish they weren’t taking this route with the two of them. They deserve a much better story than this and the crap that they’ve previously had. 

Julie and Doug III were really sweet as well. I like that he was there for her on her first Valentines Day without Doug. The two of them work well together. And we got confirmation that Doug III is straight

I also liked the way that it was set up for him to cross paths with Holly. I wonder what’s going to happen next week.

Speaking of Holly, I know that Days meant well but her scenes with Maggie were awkward af lol I could’ve never spoken about my sex life with a grandparent But I really enjoy their relationship. Tate looked good too. His shirt was something that I would wear. 

But idk about nuSophia though. She doesn’t seem to have as much of a spark as the previous Sophia did. In her scenes with Amy, she came off like such a victim; a lot more than the previous Sophia would have. We definitely need to see her in scenes with Holly soon. And if Amy is now so on board with Tate and Sophia’s plan, what was the point of her being such a dick? If they were gonna introduce that arc in the first place, they really shouldn’t have rushed it.

It's definitely a shame we lost Madelyn Kientz, because she was a natural and there were a handful of times this new girl looked like she was glitching.

I've pinpointed another reason why Abigail Klein is the worst actor on the show ... she comes off as some sort of insipid TVKids host. 

What does Carlivati have against Melissa? Plenty of past characters are naturally referenced, but for some reason, there's times like today where the dialogue will just blatantly and suspiciously make sure not to mention her. Did Lisa Trusel piss in his cheerios or something? However, for all his many faults, making Julie a true cornerstone of the show again is always a pleasure. Getting to see that flashback of Doug reading her the lyrics she told Doug III about was the perfect end to her scenes today, and the Steve/Kayla flashback was another one I'd never seen as well.

Prior to acting she was a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader, and then appeared in
the reality show "Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders: Making the Team" in 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010.

Once I learned this, I can't unsee it.

Why hasn't the Woman in White asked about Peter?  I guess Kristen hasn't had much time to fill in the blanks, and Rachel said she followed the news about Kristen, but it seems like she would want to know about her son.

Did he precede her in death? Or, does she know about the backstage drama?

Jada never knew about fake Rafe so I give Jada a pass on this current situation and The writers having Jada not figuring stuff about fake Rafe is because the writers are going to have her and Shawn closer and even Gabi hasn't noticed Fake Rafe and she should be the main one because she should know her brother

The new Sophia doesn't seem glaringly bad to me, especially considering that she got thrown into some heavy storyline mid-stream, but she definitely isn't showing that pop that the previous Sophie had yet. I don't know that the character would've been elevated if this actress had been playing her from the get-go.

I wonder if the show decided to SORAS Sophia a few years for plotline reasons.

If they're going to do the adoption story with Johnny and Chanel, they should move nuSophia in with them -- and have Sophia become attracted to Johnny. I need something other than the "I'll give you my baby" stuff.

    • Loved Valerie Mahaffey as crazy as a box of frogs Sandy Cooper on Wings. 2025 needs to chill out already. May Ms. Mahaffey rest in peace.
    • She was great on there. And Wings. And so many shows. I don't feel like we get those character actors as much now.
    • Cady did have a southern accent as Dixie in her first few years playing the character... but it started to minimize the longer she played the character (which tracks because my aunt had a heavy southern accent when married my uncle and years living in the north has softened it quite a bit). Her initial stint playing Rosanna was partly due to mirroring the previous actress and eventually developing her own take on the character. And the thing about her take as Kelly on Y & R was that she was too sedate when she first took over playing the role (she was supposed to play a woman that had recently lost her child.. and trying to keep things together) and then went OTT crazy and didn't play it well.    And I don't care to remember her attempt at playing Jennifer on Days. I think this Pamela character is the first time she's playing a character from the start and I think she's like a kid at a candy store.  She's having so much fun trying different things... and I hope eventually she decides to settle on a more consistent character for Pamela (perhaps her love of accents is a character trait based on something traumatic that happened to her in the past maybe).
    • That's sad. I remember her mostly from ER and the shortlived, yet very funny, sitcom The Powers That Be.
    • As always loved seeing Ric with Liz. I hope the show forever keeps them in each others orbit even if it’s just platonic. I’m sure she’s going to cut him out when she finds out he’s blackmailing Alexis though. So darn.
    • I have to be honest I’m really struggling with this show. I love everything with Eva/Leslie/Ted/Nicole/Kat and enjoy Dani and Bill’s shenanigans (I’m on the Hayley needs to be recast train now tho), Chelsea is second to Kat as my favorite Dupree grandkid and I loved her coming out to her mom. The show was on a truly great run with the big Leslie and Eva reveal at Nicole and Ted’s anniversary party and the fall out has still been good even with the unnecessary Ted recast and them making Leslie kind of dumb by exposing herself too much unnecessarily. The real problem for me started when they rotated back to way too damn much screen time for Derek/Ashley/Andre (if anyone should have been up first for a recast it was these three IMO). They tried way too hard to drum up drama between Ashley and Derek and the actors were clearly fighting for their mediocre charisma less acting lives to make it work but none of it landed, just horrible. Naomi and Jacob and this weird homeless woman story are also BORING. I can see where its potentially going but IDGAF at all, my only hope for them is that they’re building a triangle with Naomi/Jacob/Kat because Jacob and Kat have stronger chemistry together than their current love interests (Eva is the only one who can make the awful Tomas work). Martin, his secret and still cringe worthy acting got kind of interesting with Bill dropping hints to Smitty but they completely lost me with that lil fakeout scene at the country club. The lame “teenagers” (air quotes because Samantha is no Bianca Lawson and never beating the black Andrea Zuckerman allegations) can get off my screen as well. Joey creeping on Vanessa is grossing me out at this point, I actually quite like Vanessa and Doug now but Joey falls totally flat as a villain and someone we’re supposed to buy Vanessa being enamored with. I’m glad they’ve finally set up something interesting for Vernon and Anita to do with this girl band reunion instead of Anita wringing her hands and telling us she feels darkness coming and Vernon giving a civil rights speech every episode but yeah… People who’ve posted with me for other shows know I’m not one for fast forwarding or hate watching either, if I find a majority of a show is not working I usually just quit but because of what this show represents for me as a Black male soap fan I really want to stick it out. Its just become a challenge lately. I saw Guza has left the building and I REALLY hope we hear about some more BTS changes. The additions of Tracy Thompson and Jamie Giddens don’t exactly inspire a lot of confidence from me tho. Honestly praying hard for a new EP to replace JHC, a lot of the stuff that annoyed about her PC and AMC runs has started to match up here. I’m giving the show through the Summer to rectify some things but IDK how long I can hold on tbh. Its been a struggle to even finish some of these episodes lately.
    • I agree. I liked the episode but it felt jarring to suddenly return to a bunch of plots that had been put on pause since the Nurses' Ball started. Although I did like Laura popping in at the end to tell Alexis that millions of dollars have suddenly disappeared from Ace's trust fund. One set of scenes that made me feel optimistic for the next few months were between Sofia Mattsson and Rory Gibson. While Rory has been good as a darker, colder Michael this week, I was worried that he might not have much range. But he really warmed up with Mattsson, and I thought that (for the first time) Michael and Sasha had some genuine chemistry.
    • Next week is going to be such a sad time... I just feel it based on what was shown today. I'm wondering if the whole John being bandaged thing being a throwback to how he first arrived on the show was a Ron C idea since it just seems as though this would be something he would come up with.  If so, it's good that Cwikly/Ford are in charge with the implementing of the idea instead of him. Just a delayed thought from the Ciara scenes earlier in the week, or last week.. and how she had an odd way of dressing/acting.  I chuckle because little Ciara did say that she admired and wanted to be just like Kristen when she grew up.  So the fact that her outfit choices are so odd/off beat and her manner is a bit OTT just fits.. especially since Eileen's Kristen had an odd sense of fashion and that frantic OTT undertone to her delivery. With that said, a part of me wonders how Eileen's Kristen would have handled the scenes being done this week in regards to John's situation.   
    • My god the smirking was back in full force today. He almost started smiling after Johnny mentioned he wouldn’t be there if EJ hadn’t raped Sami. I will say I did like seeing him with Dee as they’ve always had great chemistry.    They really are giving a lot of false hope with John getting better. I wish they hadn’t done that. Monday is going to be devastating. I really liked all the characters mixing and mingling today.  Nu-Rachel is still too sweet for me. Loved all the flashbacks. Everyone looked so young. Really enjoyed Brady’s scenes with John today.
