Hey, Dario, you're going to have to get out of the gangster mode if you're going to be around forever. Sonny needs to rein it in, if he wants a relationship with Paul. God damn it, why does NBC always decide to run their non-news news breaks during Days on the West Coast? Okay, Show, please don't make Wyatt a rapist. Why did Theo ask Claire if she was ready, when she was the one pushing him when he wasn't ready?

The Nickelodeon show "Shimmer & Shine" is about two female apprentice genies who usually mess things up (I gather, I've never seen it). I wonder who decided that it would be a good idea to make one of them with blue hair and the other with pink hair, and their best friend is a blonde girl, in a pseudo-Arabian Nights environment? The creator of the show is Farnaz Esnaashari-Charmatz, who is Iranian-American, but she should know better.

??? Why?

Well. I had a friend who was a bartender, working the Super Bowl, so the bar was an absolute madhouse. A guy sitting at the bar ordered a drink, and then turned around and gave it to the girl standing behind him, who was a minor. My friend was fired and suspended by the state Alcohol Beverage Control board from working as a bartender for several months.

Buster Posey is on the seven day concussion protocol DL, although he says he's doing okay. Speculation is he'll be back in time for the interleague series in Kansas City, and that he'll be the DH there.

Brendan Urie, lead singer of Panic! At the Disco, will be stepping into the role of Charlie in the Broadway production of Kinky Boots. I wonder if he can do an English accent.

Peter Wolf was once married to Faye Dunaway, so, good for him. And Manfred Mann was the keyboardist, his band had two different lead singers, first Paul Jones and then Mike d'Abo.

The article says that this time, the actors are talking about not crossing the picket lines.

I didn't understand why Kayla stood there gasping like a fish instead of telling Tripp that she was giving Jade orders because she's her doctor.

I can dislike the thug violence and the way Stefano kept getting away with things. I may not like them, but I can handle them. But I just can't with the Scooter storyline. It's just too creepy. And the kids would not go into the system. They have families. Hillary says she wants to strangle Scooter. I wonder if he's going to wind up dead? And why, Hillary, would "Bridget" possibly know if Scooter is cheating on you? Didn't Tripp say Jade is under age? Why did the bar serve her?

He's doing quotes from movies and TV shows. The line is from the movie "Tommy Boy".

I saw a viewer talking about the new trailer for Steven King's IT, talking about how there are no movies these days about kids, and the most recent one they could come up with was Super 8.

The Writers' Guild contract with the Producers ends on May 1, and there is a lot of talk of a writers' strike. This article talks about the implications for soaps, worrying that if the writers strike soaps will go off the air, and then will they ever come back again? https://mg.mail.yahoo.com/neo/launch?.rand=c9lbocjpsb480#5809849023 Days, of course, has a six month buffer, so if the strike is short, they could get back in business soon.

What was Eduardo going to do with $100 million in bearer bonds? And was he planning on leaving the country while Kate was waiting for him at the bar, where he was trying to make up with her? That dangling thread is just weird. God, Raines is a dick. That tape sure sounded like Tamara Braun. I wonder if it was.

Former Atlanta player Otis Nixon has gone missing, and police are searching for him. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/news/otis-nixon-former-braves-outfielder-missing-014842860.html

As mentioned in the Marci Miller clip above, Amazon Prime is running a new series called "Ladies of the Lake", based on a Ken Corday novel (I guess), produced by the Cordays, starring Arianne Zucker, Martha Madison, Marie Wilson, Kyle Lowder, and GH’s Lilly Melgar. I wonder how it was for Arianne and Kyle working together. Here's a clip of the preview: https://www.ladiesofthelakeseries.com/

Wasn't there a scene earlier in this week where Steve was talking to Adrienne about Tripp?

Broadway Sacramento has announced its schedule for next fall through spring: Beautiful - The Carole King Musical Something Rotten! Jersey Boys The Book of Mormon Finding Neverland An American in Paris I've seen Jersey Boys and The Book of Mormon, but I adore The Book of Mormon, so I guess I'll get a season ticket.

Melissa Rauch from "Big Bang Theory" will be voicing Harley Quinn in the upcoming Batman and Harley Quinn. And don't worry, her real voice sounds nothing like she does in Big Bang Theory. https://moviepilot.com/p/this-big-bang-theory-actress-is-giving-harley-quinn-a-new-voice/4238820?utm_source=fb-stream-post

A new audition tape has leaked making some people wonder if EJ is going to be recast. https://soaphub.com/days-of-our-lives/shocking-days-lives-audition-tape-ej-recast/

Jordan Fisher, who played Doody in the recent "Grease Live" and a voice and face characterization in the video game "Until Dawn", has an official video of "You're Welcome" with Lin Manuel Miranda.

It's Abigail's decision to back out:

The San Francisco Police Department is suing Pepsi because in the "making of" video for that ad, one of the cops is seeing wearing an SFPD uniform. The SFPD says that they did not give their permission to use their insignia.
