At a certain point, she needs to realize her marriage is over (for now) and it wasn’t just Haley’s fault. How many episodes in a row does she need to harp on the same things?

They need to explore other aspects of Dani. She’s becoming very one-note.

Does anyone think perhaps the actors playing Martin and Smitty have been directed not to touch?  Otherwise, I would think two gay actors (assuming they are gay) would naturally touch one another more naturally in a scene between to married gay characters.  I realize the relationship is struggling, but still they have said tender lines to one another, but almost never touch.  Something is fishy here, if you ask me.

And if Chelsea ends up having a three-way with a married couple, I would assume that would be far more potentially offensive to the audience than a married gay couple showing genuine affection. Hmmm.

So it's okay for a straight married couple to invite a 3rd person into their bed, but not okay for a gay married couple to be at least moderately affectionate.  Again, something's fishy...

Yes yes yes, bark back louder so that maybe she’ll sit her ssa down. I’m not even going to participate in dialogue about it bc I’m slowly remembering that feeling of talking to a brick wall when you’re pointing out clear facts re: soaps. Dani making it her everyday mission to confront Bill and Hayley does absolutely nothing for her - not as a person within this fictional world nor as a character on this TV show. It’s not going to bring Bill back (and why would she want him back at this point?), it’s not going to restore her confidence, it’s not going to get her paid, etc. She’s lucky it hasn’t gotten her prison yet, but if she keeps at it, it just might.

Mike Manning who plays Smitty is bisexual irl. 

P&G in the past put limits on what the gay roles on ATWT and GL could do

So I'm not shocked

Maybe Smitty and Martin are not affectionate because Smitty is miserable and unfulfilled being a stay at home dad and Martin is selfish and controlling because his only concern is his political ambitions and having the perfect home life is part of the image he feels is needed. I would not be surprised if Martin instigated the marriage and the adoptions to help with the image. Adopting older children would fulfill this without the work of babies. Regardless I am happy to watch it play out instead of making assumptions.

Dani's smirk at the meme was giving Maria Roberts (OLTL) when she was fantasizing about shooting Viki. And her showing up at Hayley's house was very much Erica Kane because Erica would go to Brooke's house to talk smack.

Hayley's wardrobe is basically a modern version of how tacky characters dressed on old soaps minus the bright colors.

Eva is a villain, but Kat's elitism is making it easier for me to root for Eva.

    • I kinda think that's the point, Leslie isn't logical; she is very unhinged. She's probably mad at Eva turning on her in front of the Duprees. They need each other but I do want to see Eva form a family unit away from Leslie.
    • IDA. I felt this was his best episode and the actor sold it for me especially bc Martin has been so stoic and not very expressive with his emotions. The actor's weakness actually became a strength here bc I felt he really came alive and I bought his rage towards Leslie and later and later vulnerability he exposed to Smitty. He's growing and while I had reservations at first, I think they should keep him. He's done well with this reveal
    • The soapy convention that amused me today was the amount of stuff that soap characters get done on their way to work. I drink a glass of iced coffee, take a handful of pills, read @AbcNbc247 morning summary, and I am out the door.  Marlena got on a full beat of makeup, and her Monday blazer.  Then she visited with Johnny at the Salem Inn, EJ at the mansion, and checked in with Cat, all before reading her emails.  It is just remarkable how much people can do when they never have to go to the bathroom! Marlena's vibe with Cat was weird, considering she hired Cat as an assistant.  She seemed a little suss today. Meanwhile, with all of these new interactions, I want a scene between Chad and Marlena when they discuss blazers.  I think Chad's more unconstructed, knit jackets would suit Marlena (no pun intended).

      MTV's Floribama Shore Kirk Medias is dead at 33 years old. 
    • Of course, sexy silver fox Dr. Jeffrey Russell has to be in cahoots with EJ so that Kayla's morals don't look selfish and skewed when she is completely in the wrong in letting Steve accidentally on purpose look at the important hospital files. Anyone find it funny that a handful of characters slurred their words today?  I can't quite explain it, but sometimes, like today, I feel like Deidre Hall plays scenes too light or passive, for lack of a better word. She's definitely more known as a charismatic personality than powerhouse actress compared to her soap diva counterparts from other soaps, but I just wish she could give me more. I did, however, like that her scenes with EJ got a 'to be continued...' about Belle. Maybe then I'll see more of what I want from her. Have Shawn and Johnny literally ever had a scene together before today? If they start having Sarah in a scene where she connects with literally any other Horton, then I'll be really impressed.  I'm glad they went through the trouble of explaining why EJ bid on Cat. It made enough sense, and I laughed when Chad spit out his asking about it as soon as humanly possible.

      Such a liar. Great episode but Martin needs to be recast. He hasn't improved. I didn't feel anything for him because of his acting and the writing. He has been so isolated from Ted and Nicole that he doesn't seem like their son, much less family. Leslie is pure evil. She wants Ted and the house and the riches that go with it. She doesn't care about Eva. I felt really bad for Eva.
    • I dont understand the motivation behind it. Eva is her link to Ted and the Duprees and without her, she has nothing. It would have served better for Eva to be all fed up with her and leave the house on her own and Leslie try to make amends bc she needs her for this comeup she's been talking about. Eva can repair her relationship with Ted and maybe build something with the Duprees and cut her out
    • So good today Dante is overreacting blaming gio Hopefully Danny will come clean
    • Not mad at Leslie Locking Eva out, I think it's important for the audience to see her on her own for a while. Curious how scrappy and savvy she becomes on her own. Yeah, I am with you there. It feels a bit hollow; maybe if she was talking to Martin and Kat I would feel better about it. There must be more to this story. Daphnee and Ambyr owned this episode. Tugging my heart in every scene. Nicole process hurt and anger much differently than Dani though.
