I would fully be on board with a Shawn/Jada baby. Jada is actually a solid character and deserves so much better than to languish in a tepid and boring pairing with Rafe. Besides, Shawn and Belle are pretty much played out and they both need to move on from each other.

Well, hopefully Sophia miscarries and Joy isn't really pregnant. The Shawn/Jada baby is the best option.

Today was pretty solid. I agree that Gabi tearing Belle/Paulina a new one was the best part of today, and I'm happy to say that is actually saying something because I was completely invested in Ava seeing the light about Brady, Rachel turning on EJ, and the Shawn/Jada hookup aftermath. And yeah, I'm excited with all the build up for the upcoming

Nobody knows.

And don't trust anyone who says they know.  Because the people who actually know the real reason are the producer and the writer. And neither is ever going to admit that he was either too expensive or burnt out.

Thanks, Jason. 

We don't know for sure but my speculation is JSR wanted to bring in her own HWs and had to wait until Ron's contract/cycle was up.   JSR has known Jeanne since the eary 90's, and Paula for a couple of decades as well.

So, the Greenes are now using the Allie/Tripp/Wendy apartment set as their home. I guess the changes in it looked nice, except for that big ugly window in the back. Seriously, what is it with soaps and big ugly windows? GH has the same problem. 

But I liked Chad/Cat working together. They were sweet. And despite how cheap it’s probably gonna look lol I’m kinda looking forward to the hospital fundraiser. Hopefully, it ends up being a big event where several storylines reach their climax/turning point. 

Stephanie was a complete dumbass today though. Idk if they were trying to make her look stupid or tone deaf with Joy but it definitely worked and that isn’t a good thing. Having her be dumb just to make Alex look smart is not the way to go. As for Joy, idk. I think there’s potential in her storyline and having it be tied to Alex and the Kiriakis family storyline but I just don’t know. 

Speaking of Alex, he was looking like he was dressed to go disco dancing.

But I did enjoy the Kiriakis family scenes. I still think they’re missing a big opportunity by not having Alex be secretly undermining Philip and Xander and their take over attempt or not having any kind of fall out from Philip/Stephanie/Alex. It would be so nice if that ends up happening at some point. And it would be so messy in such a good way

Btw, Sonny definitely should have been a part of that meeting too. It sucks because as much as I want him and Will back in Salem and on the canvas, they’re better off gone as long as Leo is around. 

And Javi/Leo… Skip, even though Javi looked hot. What a boring, unsexy couple. And Leo moving into Rafe’s house?

Nope. Strike the word LONG from my post. Yes, once Ron is gone he's gone. No more pay.

At the same time, I don't believe that the new writers are editing Ron's stories 33 days before their material airs. 

And, Days is now recording 10 months ahead.

Paul Telfer and Eric Martsoff said (in January) that the new writers followed Ron's outlines for months and only in the fall shows were they finally getting ideas purely from the new team. So we can expect Ron's dumb stories but with better dialogue and characterizations until at least October.

Well tbf, I always thought the execution was where his biggest faults were. So, I am looking forward to the storylines being told even better. 

And hopefully, less focus around Alex and Leo

    • Which could make sense , except that we have seen Mariah function for years w/o any real residue pain from her upbringing. Josh decides to randomly make it a thing, when a good writer might foreshadow that for months. It's not like he's just arrived at the show. He's been there for years . Everything seems to be thought out only a few weeks ahead. It's like Phyllis all freaky from being kidnapped when she has done a million other things that didn't seem to bother her at all.
    • Unrelated, sort of, but he looks absolutely nothing like Amanda Setton or Dominic Zamprogna so it's kind of hilarious they decided to make Gio their kid.  It's very clear this was not the original origin story for Gio when they cast him. He is a very handsome guy though. 
    • I tend to agree, although going back to OLTL, Frank has so often cast guys who are meant to be attractive yet come across as cold and dead, I'm surprised he managed to get one who has a bit of a pulse.
    • For all I care, the boy can parade around in a g-string.  It won't make this show suck any less.
    • AMC was about a decade later so things may have changed by then, although maybe they never approached her anyway. She joined Santa Barbara in 1985, when they didn't seem interested in bringing back Hope. SB ended in late 1992, so JFP could have asked her back, but I doubt she did. For as much as JFP clearly had some use for Rick Hearst given that she hired him on GH and kept him around as often as she could, I don't think she ever used Alan-Michael well. I can't see Elvera as Delia, but she could have worked well as Faith - she had a glimpse of a strong personality alongside warmth, which only one Faith ever managed (Catherine Hicks).
    • IIRC, FC reruns aired for awhile on Lifetime, way before the network became the Women in Peril Channel, lol.
    • PAM!! YES!!! You have jogged my memory. She worked at Cedars. She's mentioned in a write-up of Tim's history in the show. It says she was a nurse, but I seem to remember she was a secretary at Cedars, working for either Ed or Sarah. (It's almost 50 years ago, so I definitely could be wrong). I'm certain she was an unwed mother. I recall reading an interview with the actress, Maureen Silliman (I looked it up, that's her correct name, LOL). She started on the show just before the Dobsons started writing it. She was shocked to get a script that said her character had been pregnant since she hit town. I remember a scene where she told Tim she was going to leave SF for a better job for her daughter's sake (really, I think she was upset he was serious about Rita). I don't remember them getting married and leaving town, but according to "Who's Who in Springfield" that's how the characters were written out. Mattson did All My Children for several years, so she might have been persuadable. Here's an interesting factoid I recently learned on these message boards: Elvera Roussel was in the running to play Delia on RH when the show first hit the air. How wild is it that Mattson played Delia for a while? (Though from what I saw of her performance, she was miscast). It's hard to know if Roussel would have been a good Delia. You'd think she would have been better suited to playing Faith Coleridge, but who knows? She didn't get to show a whole lot of range as Hope.
    • If I were to do an EON reboot, I think I would start at the beginning, with Mike Karr leaving the police force in order to begin a new career as an attorney, and dealing with his wife, Sara's, crooked family.
    • I don't know if it was the writing or performance but I felt like we finally got to see the real Ted. Especially the way he talked to Martin when confronted, felt like a completely different person. He felt darker and like a total liar who was mad he got caught. I expected him to be remorseful and want to apologize to each and every family member who he came into contact with but he seemed like he didn't care. It completely changed how I view him and it makes me wonder if this is the direction they're going to take Ted in with the recast.
