I liked Ian Armtiage even if he was a Jax knock-off... I really felt the actor was coming into his own. I also loved Mel's daughter Dorothy--I was interested in seeing that type of cool blond on the show as opposed to the sometimes ditzy/flighty elements of Tina or Kelly.

I just had a thought.... Is BM going to turn out to be Lucky? That would be the most f-ed thing TIIC could do but also could be brilliant soap... I'd be willing to hand wave the Robin and Jason interaction before the car accident.....

wait---is Hayden Paul's daughter Susan? or am I just crazy imagining that?

This entire Will thing is just like Georgie Jones on GH---a child we saw grow up on screen who played a huge part for so many characters, being killed off for some cheap terrible stunt.... It's tacky and gross and unnecessary... And part of one of the better couples in the last few years--gay or straight.... What a waste...

Between Diane, Lindsey and Cameron I feel this show is some unlikable people competition

Okay--is there supposed to be something to the appeal of Freddie Roscoe? I just really hate his character and now he is dragging Lindsay into his BS.... It's almost making me go off the show.... Between this and give Ste HIV I just feel like the show doesn't know what it is doing with its writing... And I cannot abide this Joe/Nancy idea.... I know Joe needs a love interest so why not try Maxine or Theresa? I just dont see the appeal

It hasnt been mentioned yet--I was just pointing out that Diana had a mother named Serena and now we have this Serena character and the show seems to want to do more Kirikias stuff so I guess I just dont see this as a random choice or one of the fool writers really likes Gossip Girl

I am starting to wonder if Serena is going to turn out to be related to Victor--He was married to Diana Coleville and that was her mother's name... Maybe she had Victor's baby when she left town? It just seems so random and yet so connected--and would tie into this idea of DiMera vs Kiriakis story they seem to be going for....

Okay--I need someone who is a long term fan to explain to me something about this show... Is it common for a bunch of actors/characters to go at the same time? Because Carmel, Mercedes, Dennis, Blessing are all gone now with in the same like week period and I'm wondering if this is gona happen like twice a year with the mass cast exodus? It's getting hard to be a fan

I'm kind of pissed that Carmel's exit didn't involve her at least confronting Sonny one last time even if it would have been to save Phoebe... And honestly Myra can go back to where she came from for her lecture and crappy treatment of Mercedes--she was right and Teresa was to blame for a lot of Carmel's unhappiness so maybe stick up for your dead daughter and side with the live one versus your niece who is too stupid to live

And for me--I dont mind Sienna because at points I have found her to be sympathetic--like searching for the child taken away, being lied to about who the dad was, so when she does go off her rocker I at least liked and cared at some point.... Unlike characters like Finn or Patrick who I just watch being non-stop dicks and torturing people without any moments of kindness or self awareness which means they are just cardboard that make other people behave stupidly to ignore how over-the-top bad they are. And even sometimes the good reason/bad actions characters dont work for me--I felt bad for Cameron being set up until it was confirmed he ran down Sam and Danny then there was nothing he can do that will make me root for him... I do think the pacing can be off but with such a large cast and swapping people on and off screen I can at least understand that. Plus they make the stories very layered so it doesnt feel like 6 years of Blessing wanting the surgery--but also about family rejection, dealing with the ghost of Leanne when it comes to Dennis, her cutting as well as the surgery... And they do that type of building alot-on an American show it would just be one of those and dragged out as long

I just was bummed that Finn wasnt called out for attacking Blessing--and that Diane, Tony and Sinead were not held accountable for deleting the tape and protecting her attacker... It wasnt all about Nancy and Jon Paul.... And now I feel like I am stuck watching characters I dont care about like Leela and Cameron, Jason and Holly--even Phoebe is now on my last nerves... I just want the next cycle of stories to start--or even just focus on the new characters....

I know Diane is Janet JAckson as a child--but does anyone know what performance her outfit is from? I have been trying to find that info all night--she sings a song with michael or randy and it is super cute and famous--but I cannot find it on the interwebs

I thought the RJ and Vee scene at the beginning was her trying to get him to own up to screwing her over, wanting to hear why her "son" had betrayed her... Once she didn't like the answer she stopped seeing him as her "son" which is why she allowed herself to have sex with him--a way to make him think things were cool while she plotted out her next move--the cop may have already been in place but was waiting on Vee's say so. She very much uses people by giving them what they think they want which then leads them open to her doing what she wants to them and this was always her MO. It's very classical narcissism and psychotic at the same time.

After today I'm pretty sure that Levi is gonna be Mac's son--which is why he called him a bad parent, is probably a con artist like his father was when younger, and is probably out to torture Maxie/Felicia because that was the family Mac chose. And because it is Re-Ron we'll let some big but terrible start from some other show to play the ex con/ex girlfriend of Mac/Levi's mother. The only question is who will it be?
