Members Contessa Donatella Posted April 3 Members Share Posted April 3 A few things ... Has anyone started lists, like, people with guns, people without alibis and people with motive? It seemed to me that Belle was better looking, sexier, more alluring when she wore that wire. Also I thought EJ's accent got thicker the past 3 days & his pretensions, boy, they were moreso than ever. Of course, it was not lost on me that he was totally alone, alienated from literally everyone & the only thing he had to talk to was that damned portrait. Now, it's easy to say, "Served him right!" and it did. I was thinking he could lie there in his blood for a long time but then Chad arrived, however, why? Last but certainly not least, why didn't Ron write this way all along? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted April 3 Members Share Posted April 3 Johnny was talking about hating his father & Josh/Roman said, "I know that feeling." Why would Roman have felt hatred for his father? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Efulton Posted April 3 Members Share Posted April 3 I believe Roman meant he knows the feeling about hatred towards EJ. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted April 3 Members Share Posted April 3 Oh, probably! Thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted April 3 Members Share Posted April 3 I doubt he cared; maybe it's why he was "immediately" replaced as head writer, and it's the one story that pushed the "EJECT" button. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members j swift Posted April 3 Members Share Posted April 3 (edited) It’s scientifically impossible for the writers to have traveled back in time and read my post from yesterday—but imagine my shock when EJ actually referred to his son as *Giovanni*. Kate took quite the logical leap, assuming EJ would resort to a hit-and-run over Rex. That’s never really been his style. @AbcNbc247 , I have a sneaking suspicion that today’s shooting is just the tip of the iceberg. Something tells me there’s a much bigger surprise on the horizon. On a lighter note, Chad’s jacket? Absolute perfection. Still not listed on WornOnTV, but I *need* it. Meanwhile, Cat continues to feel like she wandered onto the wrong set, and Kayla—a *senior* doctor, mind you—is somehow stuck pulling 36-hour shifts? That was a dumb bit of detail, I assume to disqualify her as a suspect, but I never thought she was a suspect. Why didn't Ava give Melinda back her gun? Otherwise, didn't she make trouble for her friend? Because when the cops find the gun, they'll suspect Melinda, and she'll have no proof that she lent it to Ava. And just for fun, let’s take stock: Salem has collectively forgiven Cat, Ava, Philip, and Gabi for all manner of violent misdeeds, yet Theresa remains persona non grata for a little light forgery and resulting in a fortune for Alex? Consistency is clearly not this town’s strong suit. Edited April 3 by j swift 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted April 3 Members Share Posted April 3 My number one suspect is that Rachel Black shot EJ, hence the upcoming recast. This story has been fun to watch and Chad finding him was a nice unexpected surprise for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted April 3 Members Share Posted April 3 I hope so. And, it would be nice to see the new writers start things off with a bang. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members j swift Posted April 3 Members Share Posted April 3 (edited) One suspects Standards & Practices would never allow them to actually film a child shooting an adult—but wouldn’t it make a deliciously twisted revenge arc if lil' Rachel were the one to shoot EJ with Melinda's gun? I’ve also been puzzling over why Roman had his gun in his back pocket—until I considered that it may be the very thing that clears Roman, Kate, and Johnny. Please register in order to view this content Lastly, a crackpot theory for your consideration: With the backstage shakeups and the exodus of Joy, Theresa, Ava, and Rachel, maybe the ever-growing suspect list is a narrative sleight of hand. What if EJ’s shooting is just a shiny distraction to cover the sudden vanishing acts as part of a bigger transition? Just something to keep in mind as the gears shift...

Members ranger1rg Posted April 3 Members Share Posted April 3 Could the killer be old lady Rita, who EJ hired to keep track of Rafe, etc.? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members j swift Posted April 3 Members Share Posted April 3 That would be so sad, Rita was the only one left that liked EJ. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted April 4 Members Share Posted April 4 Annnddddd this is why I said that they should’ve dragged out the EJ storyline for the whole week. EJ being shot would’ve been the perfect Friday cliffhanger as opposed to what we got today. There was barely a hook to get people to tune in on Monday. And at only 32 minutes, was today a Jamey episode? And of course we couldn’t go a week without precious Leo Please register in order to view this content Why was Gabi even giving this waste of life the time of day? There are plenty of other people in Salem that she could’ve spoken to. But at least Javi was out of that annoying, toxic bubble that’s he now stuck in with Leo. For a little while anyway lol and he looked hot too. Also, Rafe was actually (a little) tolerable in his scenes with him today. I preferred Shawn’s scenes with Jada though. I liked that he was there for her. And that we got an added dynamic to the Who Shot EJ mystery. Cat comforting Chad was nice too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted April 4 Members Share Posted April 4 (edited) Today's show was boring. How did the police not find the wire Rafe planted at the Dimeras? Talk about terrible detective work. Javi in that robe looked delicious. Did anyone notice Billy Flynn laughing when EJ started his weird convulsions? Please register in order to view this content EJ shooting didn't move the needle. It's still stuck at #8 just ahead of Three's Company rerun episodes. When does Carlivati material finally end? I'm assuming the new writers will follow his outline as to who the killer is without unfortunately not changing/fixing it?

Members Contessa Donatella Posted April 4 Members Share Posted April 4 Javi, hot? I don't get it. Guess it's just not a look I could admire. But, he is a more than decent talk-to. He was really good trying to get through Rafe's thick skull. So, now, People with Guns: Ava, Johnny, Gabi, Rafe, JJ, Shawn, Jada & Kristen. Although notably Jada's gun is MIA. People without alibis: Rafe said he went out to get beer, but Javi said they'd had beer there in the fridge to which Rafe replied that he guessed he hadn't seen it. Kristen took a shower & was blow-drying her hair. Jada was getting very drunk & had her phone turned off. Ava has suddenly left town. Johnny said he went for a walk after he left his Granpa Roman's pub. Gabi, who the hell knows where she was, maybe this whole time wandering in the Square Before he was shot, we saw both Ava & Kate outside, somewhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
