I’d probably use that good idea of having Leo be suddenly taken out by a sniper… or I’d give RC a big

and have Javi just find him dead in the bed from like a stroke or something.

And then in the following weeks, Will, Sonny, Paul, Andrew and Dimitri would come back

TBH, at this point I wouldn't mind a serial killer storyline that actually sticks this time around. 

Bring back some unloved characters to make it extra special.

[Contessa Donatella]

Okay, I can get with you for a sniper but ordinary died in his sleep?!!! No, more punishment is required. 

[AbcNbc247]

Ron would get the punishment in that case.

Just to show him how insignificant and unnecessary Leo is

Viewers choice!

Who do you think needs to get killed off?

I know they were probably trying to be cute with Vivian and Sami leaving on the same plane, but I do hope something comes out of it.

I'd bring back the neck-tie killer only to get killed off by another serial killer.

Okay, the penalizing can definitely head in his direction. WE GOT THIS!

Gwen, Theresa, Theresa's wig, Leo of course, JoshRoman, Jennifer/Missy, F'Abby/Cat. Those are definites. 

Maybes: Javi, Gabi, Johnny, Rafe, OldRachel

I hope you're thinking in terms of a glorious chart to show all of this!!!

One other missing angle (thus far) in the Johnny/EJ saga is JJ.

JJ found out that Jack was a rapist similarly to how Johnny found out about EJ (they were both in their 20s, they both responded with violence, and they were both resentful that others kept it a secret). It would be nice for them to commiserate.  The Chad scene was enjoyable, but Chad finding out about Stefano being his father wasn't quite as traumatic.  So, I'd like to hear JJ's response to Johnny's situation.

The challenge is to avoid making it seem common. So, we can't have JJ wistfully recalling how he mended fences with Jack.  JJ and Johnny should trauma bond, but somebody has to mention how crazy it is that the same thing has happened to two different people.

That's my list too but is there room for Paulina?

[Contessa Donatella]

F'Abby/Cat & Jennifer/Missy are tiny! Soo, fine. Oh, Gabi is tiny, too. Lots of room!

WHOA, wicked irony!

[1974mdp]

With the current casting, I always thought that having it turn out the Johnny was actually Lucas's son all along would be a great twist. Johnny WAAAAAY more physically looks as if he could be Lucas's child versus EJ.

EJ could find out that Stefano manipulated the DNA testing so that EJ could be connected to Sami. Then, EJ, who doesn't want the truth to come out because he loves Johnny, tries to keep the secret.

Now, that is a good twist that would've been like traditional DOOL!

Come to think of it....

Sarah's been the real villain all along. 

She was going to perjurer herself to get Brady thrown in jail, she stole half of her husband's fortune and gave to Philip, and she doesn't help Maggie around the house.

Kristen has evil thrust upon her to save her mother and child.  EJ just wants to be the DA to Salem safe from crime.  And, Orpheus just wants to help his LGBTQIA son gain custody.  Sarah is the only one who put her best interests before her loved ones.

[brisbydog]

Lol I love this take. Especially Orpheus 

[Contessa Donatella]

Sarah is in the process of living this huge lie because she thinks it will be good for Xander. I mean, what is she getting out of this? And, if not Sarah, then who? Plus, Maggie is a very wealthy woman, she needs to hire some help. Delegate!

I tuned in to see Sami and Vivian return to the show.

I have also dipped into Y&R, B&B and BTG and I have to say I think DAYS is easily the most entertaining of them by a mile.

There have been so many fun 'moments' where regardless of the writing, the actors have chemistry and history that makes their scenes magical.

Lauren Koslow and Ali Sweeney haven't lost an ounce of their chemistry. I loved the scene where they gossiped in the Brady Pub. Have also enjoyed LK's scenes with JPL, who has won me over as Philip.

Galen Gering has been great lately and his scenes with AS were no exception. Loved the random Rafe and Sami hookup.

Finally, Louise Sorel is always wonderful. She brought the chaos. I loved the last scene between Sami and Vivian - the show, back in the 90s, would have Sami and Vivian scenes where Sami would get advice from 'Auntie Viv' - a great little wink to the past.
