LOL I wish they'd stop. VI said it that way too.
Brady doesn't though. But JKJ's Philip did.
Well, EM can't even remember that Theresa isn't Brady's wife, so.... :whistle: :blulaugh:

Well I agree with Deimos when he says the Salem
PD is incompetent.

I wasn't bored. Maybe I should have been. But I wasn't. Weird. Nothing happened but the interactions were interesting to me.

While i like Brady and Nicole's friendship, I don't like this idea that Nicole is just so unable to deal with Deimos. Like why do you need Brady to run interference? If you don't want to move in, stick to your guns, Nicole. And then as soon as she saw him, Brady disappears and they make out. The heck?

I LOVED the Phole scenes today. I know I am in the minority, but I don't mind this Phillip and I don't mind this version of Phloe. He's really sweet to Chloe in a way that's particular to this actor. I would say he's "sweet on her" actually. Their scenes have a nice touch of humor and genuine regard for another which, given their history, is not easy to pull off. I really do wish he was the father and they ended up together.

Kate and Andre... I mean they are there, lol. I was neither intrigued nor annoyed by them, which is new for Andre in particular.

I liked subdued Theresa. Hell, I liked subdued Brady. I liked their interactions today which is good because they've been grating on my nerves for awhile. I enjoyed them. Sue me :shrug:

Eve and Justin. I liked their scenes but honestly at this point I like that Eve knows what it is. I want her to end up in Eduardo's orbit again- there's a lot more drama and interest if the story goes that way for me. I love Justin, but its not like he "lost" Adrienne because of Lucas or like he did anything to seriously get her back. He's got a cheating problem and a disregard for his wife problem. He needs to work on himself.

Deimos, Deimos, Deimos..... he is my least favorite part in every storyline and every scene. He is the 2016 model Daniel. And he sticks out like a sore thumb because I have no idea what purpose he serves or what his motives are. And I don't care if he never gets a kid. I don't have to like or sympathize with a character but if I am not at all invested in anything he says, does, or experiences, why is he there?

Why do I get a feeling Deimos is not a father of Chloe's baby and Brady is? If I remember correctly Chloe told Phillip that Brady came to visit her in Chicago. Well, I'm not surprised if writers go with Broe.
I had better get flashbacks if this is the scenario.

I'm just imagining how wonderful it would have been to have Justin Hartley as Philip, he is one of the few who could have made me not miss JKJ so much and I bet he would have sizzled with both MM and NB.

I don't understand why they keep having Chloe get pregnant by these random dudes nobody cares about!! First Tan and now Deimos? She was married to Brady for how long? And Parker should've been Philip's. And this new baby either Philip's or Brady's. We certainly never saw Marlena, Kimberly, Hope, Kayla, Jennifer or even Carrie, Sami or Belle have children with random love interests fans never cared about. They had kids with their main love interests, fan favorite couples that shared history and actual chemistry. Chloe Lane should be having kids with someone that matters on canvas like Brady or Philip. Imagine if Thomas was actually Ben's and not Chad's. That would be absurd right? Just as absurd as Tate being Brady and Theresa's.
:hail:

It makes no sense to give Chloe children with these random rectons. Considering her history with them, her kids should have been Brady's and Philip's.
THIS 100,000,000 PERCENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I absolutely love Justin Harley!!! Loved him on Smallville and Younf and the Restless. He was an awesome recast for Adam Newman. He really surprised me, I never thought anyone would as good for the role as Michael Munhey. He'd be a great Philip. I always thought Jacob Young would make a good Philip but Justin Hartley is even better.

I agree he'd sizzle with MM, NB heck even Kate Mansi if she were still on the show. JH's Philip could be a great rival for Chad!!! Philip running Titan and Chad with DE.

Is there some kind of law saying the actors playing Kiriakises have to pronounce the name like they are Greek? Kiri-a-keez?
I believe I read somewhere that John Aniston told Wally back in the day that was how it's pronounced in Greece. I guess others have caught on, don't know.
LOL I wish they'd stop. VI said it that way too.
I have a foreign last name and the way we pronounce it in my family is totally diffenrent to how others do. It's realistic to me.

Who would you recast Brafy with?

I always thought Erin Torpey ex Jessica on OLTL would've made a great Belle recast after Kirsten left.

I'm not sure, at the moment I don't have too much of a problem with EM except I do think he's a little too old. (He definitely looks like Drake's son) My main issue with Brady is the writing by far. I have gotten to the point that I no longer see Ethan Crane when I see him lol.

Every time Deimos calls Phillip and Chloe kids, I cringe. Like dude, you understand you slept with that "kid?"
Yes, Grandpa Deimos doesn't realize that it makes him look like an even bigger creep.
And then ten minutes later he's eating Nicole's face like..... he comes off so sleazy. I just don't see the Kiriakis charm in this one :shame: .
Maybe that's the big baby twist.

The paternity results reveal Deimos isn't a kiriakis.

Brady doesn't though. But JKJ's Philip did.
... And it was hot when he did it.

I always liked that JKJ was consistent in Philip's inconsistency there. If Philip was just in a calm mood hanging out with his friends, he pronounced it the way most of the Salemites do. If he was stressed out, fighting with Victor, throwing his weight around at work, or just generally being a dick, it was Kee-ree-ah-keez. You always knew JKJ's Philip's state of mind based on how he said his name.

It was a nice touch.

VI carries off a perfectly smarmy villain superbly. Arrogance personified.

I have a foreign last name too since my ancestors came over from Europe, and I know the way they must have said it is different than we say it now, but we don't feel compelled to say it correctly anymore. :shrug: Or does this only apply to certain countries?

I wonder if JA thinks everyone should say Theresa the way he does?

They saved the weakest episode of the week for Friday.

Andre is a non-starter for me. I like Thaao, I do, but no one in Salem should be willing to associate with Andre. He's played out.

Theresa is a non-starter for me. She should never have been rewarded for her antics with Brady, a baby, and a company.

I have no interest in watching Rex Balsom reminisce about the Last Blast. You weren't there, Rex. You were in Llanview running petty cons.

I don't get why Chloe needs to hide the baby's paternity, nor do I care to, because I don't care about Deimos. He's been on the show for five minutes.

I definitely didn't need more references to Daniel. At all. Ever. If Nicole wants to honor Daniel's memory, maybe she should just let the villains kill her. Because that's what Daniel did. He (metaphorically) killed things I loved, so I'm sure he'd appreciate the tribute.

The tiny bright spots for me: Brady/Nicole know each other, Billie got name dropped, and Eve was there. (Feel better soon, Kassie!)

I liked today, but I like most of these characters, and the ones I don't have been getting better writing so I don't mind them as much. It didn't feel like a Friday show though, but still I preferred it to yesterday. They could have reversed yesterday and today I guess.

I like this Philip, have from the beginning, and I love him with Chloe. I wish he was staying.

I love the Bricole friendship when it's written right, and that's one thing Dena knows how to write.

I definitely think they're moving Nicole away from Deimos, if not then just slowing them down a lot.

I will miss Eve, I hope they pick up with Justin and Eve when she returns, along with continuing with a friendship between her and Nicole. So much more believable than a friendship between Nicole and Theresa.

I feel they're doing a better job than Josh did with balancing the airtime, there are a few characters that could use more airtime but I don't feel like some are getting way too much focus like they did under Josh. Overall I'm happy so far with the new writers, and I'm enjoying my favs more.
