I always said Ron has writing talent.

As for Jamey, anyone could do what he did to get where he is

I’m worried he’ll be part of it. 

And try to inject stupid stuff into it like he did with Liz/Marie at Doug’s 

Guess we can put them on the list of actors who’ve spoken out now that Ron is gone

Today was very flashback heavy, but if it means that this Fake Rafe stuff is finally ending and leading into something better like Shawn/Jada/Rafe or EJ vs. Gabi and JJ, I’m all for it lol kinda feel bad for Shawn though. I’m curious to see where he’s gonna go from here. 

I was really impressed by EJ/Dan Feuerriegel today. He played it like an actual villain, rather than some campy clown, which is exactly the why that he always should play it. And I was liking the way that this part of the storyline is building up. It’s starting to seem a lot more clever and well thought out than what we’ve seen over the past few months. 

And yeah… Stephanie/Alex/Joy isn’t as interesting as Philip/Stephanie/Alex. JJ meeting Joy and finding out about the possible baby could be interesting though.

But, all the Body&Soul talk was unnecessary.

They were actually not that keen on the new writers. They were cautiously optimistic I'd say. Paul was pleased that other storylines bleed into his own as they should rather than Xander staying in his bubble.

It was very telling that only three actors publicly lamented Ron's firing: Ron W, Greg R and Julie D. Linsey G is very vocal in interviews about hating her current story and struggling to make sense of Sarah's logic.

I tuned out after Doug's death and was on a hiatus before that. The stories were the typical Ron nonsensical fair, but the Body &Soul tripe broke me. 

I'll give the show a chance once the new writers come on board in April. I want to see how they handle John's goodbye. Still cant believe Drake is gone and the Jarlena love story is coming to an end.

Yeah, that definitely says something.

RSW and GR were no surprise considering Ron’s obsession with them. Hell, I would’ve been insulted on Ron’s behalf if they hadn’t said anything

As for Julie Dove, maybe she was fine with the way her character was written, but personally, I feel she deserved better.

Welcome!

It’ll be good to see more people in here after Ron leaves

Hey everyone! Any word on when John's memorial will be happening? Also curious about who's planning to come back for it?

I hate that Rita didn't get a chance to say where Arnold is to EJ.

I hate that Gabi can grab Rafe's gun because he doesn't keep it locked up.

Furthermore, I hate chem testing Joy with every guy on the show (btw, I'm betting she's sick, not pregnant).

On the other hand, this plot has given Galen Gering a time to shine.  His humor as Arnold, his charm when talking to Jada today, the fact that they've stopped dying his eyebrows; it all works for me. 

I also appreciate that Shawn and JJ are adequate at their jobs.  It makes no sense that Shawn would interrogate a witness on his own.  But, I'm pleased that Shawn has not reverted to form and tried to date the stripper.

I've decided I'm not crazy about Joy. She can leave any time. She doesn't read as someone who's qualified to do anything but act on a terrible soap opera.

I think Galen did a nice job with Arnold, but it's gone on too long -- to the point where everyone else looks ridiculous.

He generally plays sarcastic or smug pretty well. He injects some life into it. They should've made Rafe a caustic [!@#$%^&*] heading up the Salem PD, without leading man storylines, and commenting on everyone else's idiocy long ago. 

I'll go a step further and say -- which I can't believe I'm doing -- that Galen did a nice job selling Rafe's love for Jada in those reunion scenes today. I like Jada fine, but I've never felt any kind of heat between them or attachment to them, but today had something that kinda worked. Go figure.

      I feel like the show has been like this for the past 15 or more years, IMO. Things happen but there are never or RARELY any long-term impacts. Instead, everything (characters, history) is just reset to what it was before. In a couple of months, Hope will be working at Forrester again. No one will ever mention the takeover. Brooke and Ridge will be back together for the millionth time, etc etc.  It's hard to get invested in a story when you know this is how the show works.

      Martin and Smitty's kids not being there seemed like a glaring omission. Also, Naomi and Jacob weren't there as well. I know some of this is probably budget, but it seems like there could be a way to still have them all there.

      Dani had a flashback of Dani getting ready for an event with Bill. The gown she wore in the flashback was light green and elegant and gorgeous. The light green flashback dress was quite different than the red/orange/lilac swirling print beaded gown that Dani is wearing to Nicole's anniversary party.   But there was clearly the show's intention to have the Dupree women (except for Nicole) wearing shades of red.   I love Anita but the red gown that she's wearing to the anniversary party -- not flattering.

      I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube.

      Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny with back polka dots on black background) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.

      Tate seems to love throwing punches now

      Please register in order to view this content

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her
