Yep… still Team Jacob.

But I was still liking the conflict between him and Naomi though and I’m excited to see where it’s gonna go. And I wonder if the new partner is going to play into it. 

And, I’m surprised but I actually had a little sympathy for Bill too

I honestly find Naomi and Jacob to be a snooze.

In my experience most modern soaps have one sacrificial lamb early in their run. Often it's one of the purest or kindest characters. I think a Dupree will die in the first year (pre-planned or otherwise) and I won't be shocked if it is Naomi, who is angelic, upright and boring to a fault. I might cut both of them. He said in Week 3! I know, I'm awful.

That is her cousin possibly. But something tells me, too, he might be her brother b/c Ted keeps bringing him up.

Call me farfetched, but something tells me they're twins and MVJ and Guza might borrow from their Santa Barbara days with the Quinn/Robert twin arc. I assume this b/c I remember Sheila Duckworth and Daphnee Duplaix saying it gets real wacky for Nicole around the end of April. 

Oh, their marriage is headed towards trouble. I think the detective is about to cause a lot hardship for them going forward. I can foresee him getting Jacob wrapped up in some mess. 

I want it to happen to b/c it'd put Leslie and Dani at odds, too. Could you imagine those two combustible elements at each other's necks?! Heaven help the DMV area and Fairmont Crest. 

Oh well.  They're taking it and elevating the name to new heights! Plus, this TomKat is . The original was creepy and I feel like Josephine Potter ain't recovered since that mess.

Wasn't Dr. Jonathan Kinder a plastic surgeon?  I know he was tied up in the Erica, Janet, Skye, Marian storyline (which I loved) back in the 90s... maybe I'm mixing up his profession with Janet's plastic surgery return, but I thought he might have been.

Episode 12: messy/sloppy.  Jacob/Naomi not working for me. They should have made Bill and Ted brothers. The episode felt disjointed.  Still feel Zimmerman/Brown are a winning script combo but Dani's character is still a mess of contradictions.  They got some work to do with some of the actors (Ted, Jacob in particular in this episode). I liked Anita/Vernon scenes. Some of the pop culture and historical references in the script are a bit heavy handed but I like the realism they are bringing to some of the plots/characters.

What I found odd about Ted recognizing Silkpress is that they made such a point last week that he hadn't recognized her last week when he passed her by. Something is definitively off, though would they already pull the ole twin switcharoo trope?

Wow, I didnt even think about Dana vs Dani! That would be good. 

BTW, why did they make Leslie's real name, Dana? Its too similar to the main character and Im sure it will confuse people if she starts going by it

Silkpress vs Dani has potential to be epic. I agree with you guys. I can definitely see Dani held in a dungeon by Silkpress... who has taken over her social media and posts for her behalf.

Bill is still on my BAD list but he's not #1 any more. Leslie has overtaken that #1 slot. Bill, Hayley, Leslie, Eva & Martin are that list.

Derek, of course, is awful but doesn't fit on either list.

My other list, GOOD, is longer. Anita, Vernon, Dani, Nicole, Andre, Pamela, Vanessa, Mona, the Mike Manning character (I hate his name.), Naomi, Chelsea, Jacob ... 

The thing about Leslie is that nothing, or pretty much so, is worse than pretending to be suicidal. That is it, the epitome of "badness". How could you get worse?

I pointed out this problem the other day, having two females with their names being the feminine derivative of Daniel is just too close.

I think pretending to have a loaded gun and making people think you're going to kill them... is quite "bad" too...

Count me in on the group that can’t stand Naomi or the actress. What a self-righteous and hypocritical bore. 

I do think they need to explore Naomi and Haley’s relationship more though. Naomi brought Haley into the fold but they never interact or share any meaningful scenes in passing. There needs to be some type of reckoning between the two - maybe they can get trapped in a room or something before Naomi is killed off.

      Yes and I also loved how she focused on Chelsea and Naomi when she spilled Bill's involvement in all of this.

      OH, I AM.   And it looks like it's a pretty good episode so I might watch later on this weekend after work cuz I see a lot of scenes with people I actually like. Very happy to see Rocco/Danny appear to be getting story, too.

      Edge of Night (EON) (No spoilers please)

      By Soaplovers · Posted

      I do agree that a revival of EON would work, if it doesn't fall into doing all of the typical soap opera tropes... which it became guilty of in the final few years of the show with the over abundance of Raven/Sky at the expense of the actual detectives, police, etc. And I know it was mentioned earlier that Raven had lost any true connections on the show with the death of her on screen mother, and the loss of April/Draper/Deborah.. and I do agree with that. I actually thought the show would have done something with the Shelley character that could have connected her to the Raven character.  There were a few scenes where the two would have scenes and size one another up before they would go their separate ways.. so I assumed perhaps they would have been revealed as half-siblings and/or perhaps cousins.  Alas.. not to be.

      It definitely flowed beautifully. So much that I was annoyed when Vanessa/Doug because I wanted to get back to the party. I know it was intentional to build up tension and suspense. It worked. lol. I'm glad it was there in hingsight because it gave us that great conversation between Doug and Vanessa. Foreshadowing? And yesss!!! This episode was sooo old school soap giving beat after beat after beat leading up to the unveiling of Eva as Ted's daughter. And we still have plenty of fallout/aftereffects to work through.   Speaking of...Bill, Bill, Bill lol. Good to have confirmation HE was the scary lawyer.   I'm sure I will have a busy Monday, but I can't wait for it. I don't know what I'm looking forward to more. Probably Anita vs Silk Press Sheila tbh. And yes, I feel they will be matching each other 'blow for blow.'

      And if they go there, it could also be tied to Johnny completely cutting him off, possibly going to work for Titan, etc.

      @AbcNbc247 maybe it is just that they've gone to that well too often, and I don't like when DAYS goes dark, but I'm OK with EJ abusing drugs, and just skipping the whole sobriety part. Side note: experiencing hallucinations of my son killing me would be enough for me to never want to take a pill again.

      Part of the reason that Courtney worked at OLTL was because the show had an actual character for her to play.  One that was somewhat different than her character on AW, and after the way she was treated over at AW.. it had to have been nice to be courted onto a new soap that actually valued your contributions.
