She told Eve even though she and Brady are not married yet, she is practically a "Kiriakas." Brady's last name is BLACK, Theresa. Where is her loyalty to her own family? The BRADY'S and the DONOVANS? |

I never understand Thrady's relationships. No chemistry, no history, no excitement. They just freaken boring pair as hell wasting the airtime and mine. How many days left for fire poker Theresa to leave? Can't stand her. |

Sadly, I didn't expect any more scenes for Justin and Adrienne then what we got. It didn't amount to a hill of beans as usual. I just don't get it, two short scenes lasting together 1 minute. I feel the writers have an obligation to the fans of Justin and Adrienne to give them a story as they give John/Marlena and Steve/Kayla, there is no doubt about it for me. I want to see Justin and Adrienne fall back in love again slowly but what Dena is not doing with them is just as bad as what she is doing. I don't remember a time though when she was good to them with story. I don't care if I ever see Lucas again because when I see Justin and Lucas in a scene together, my focus is always on Justin, I still, after all these years, still really love looking at that man. I did like how Justin watched Adrienne for a few seconds before walking into the room, I will take this, and when Adrienne asked him, "Justin what do you want" and his reply was "You, I've come to take you home", was cool and reminded me of the many times he would pick her up in his arms and carry her to their bedroom. I sure wish there is more of them tomorrow, given that a spoiler says Adrienne and Andre have a scene. I don't ask for much just what is fare for the other super couples on the show,should be fare for Justin and Adrienne. |

For me Justin and Adrienne compare well with Steve and Kayla since both couples had very lengthy absences. John and Marlena and Bo and Hope were around all those years J&A and S&K were off camera so it's interesting to see the disparity between S&K and J&A especially over the last year. What doesn't make sense is that Dena seems to like J&A and they still remain off contract like lysie mentioned yesterday. I'd imagine though things have to move somewhat with the wedding coming up for Lucas and Adrienne. |

I thought Theresa was helping herself to water and food from the Pub to take back to the mansion. The only time she makes time for her family (Brady's/Donovans) is when she needs/wants something. |

It looked like she was bringing it in. I thought maybe she was helping Caroline, but they never said what she was doing. |

Obviously the apocalypse is upon us, because I was sympathetic to Theresa today. I'm glad someone finally objected to the Kiriakis "no ovaries allowed" policy. I'm glad she called her sister. I'm glad she went to the Pub and helped out. (I thought she was distributing water, not stealing it.) I think her assertion that she is a Kiriakis is reasonable under the circumstances since she would be legally married to Brady but for the prison break and Brady consistently calls her his wife. And while I don't think Brady has covered himself in glory lately, I can understand why Theresa, who has been forgiven by Brady to a ludicrous extent, would feel that way. |

Oh, I liked the Justin/Adrienne scenes. In yet another example of inaccurate spoilers, he didn't demand anything and he even apologized when Adrienne thought he was getting a little too free with the idea that he currently has a say in what she does. Extending the invitation to Lucas was done without sarcasm and with acknowledgement that Adrienne does in fact have a life of her own choosing. And he brought up Sonny in a reasonable way rather than implying that a grown-up man with a marriage, child, career, and world travel under his belt needs mommy and daddy together. However, I'm not one who's okay with Lucas being hurt yet again. When Adrienne inevitably goes back to Justin, can she PLEASE do it without cheating on Lucas or humiliating him? I actually do think she loves both of them at this point, which is fine. It's a soap opera. |

I liked what they seem to be setting up for J/A. I agee that they didn't get enough time together, but it's a start. I think the only reason Theresa's scene come off as wrong are because that writing doesn't fit those two characters. |

I LOVE Justin and Adrienne. I wish that they had more than a few minutes on the show. Where did Chad's brain go? I'm just not getting this whole 'let's do the same thing but I want to make a new DiMera Enterprise' isn't working. Why is Deimos and Dario still on the show? I'm just not getting it. I can't wait till Theresa leaves. So excited. That's all I got.... |

JJ! You look hotter in your street clothes than that uniform but I will take it! You got that right Gabi, he is a superhero. He was the best part of that episode. Poor Chad must really miss his brain. if he is so worried about money, maybe he should take back those $300 ties that he is paying someone to buy for him. I guess he did cut back on all that spending after he cut the teenager that got paid Full time for her part time hours loose. Here's hoping his plan versus Clyde goes well or he might be a lost cause altogether. Abby! Please come home WAY WAY before Christmas. Thomas needs to be left the legacy of the SALEM SPECTATOR instead of this Andre shadiness. Maybe KC meant she would see her family after Thanksgiving? Got the holidays mixed up? What happened to gabi's blossoming friendship with Blanca? Spunky Gabi is the girl I like. Not the immature whiny version that we have been seeing. Gee sexist much Kiriakis family?! I liked Theresa today. They don't make me feel anything as a couple but I can watch their scenes because I like them both as actors. I do wonder how she is going to exit. |

Fun episode. Clearly setting up the sides and I'm fine with that. Having the two powerful families face off while there is internal struggles within the families is interesting soap. Kate and Andre as Chad's 'family' is quite the stretch, but it's the only way to carry this off and give the actors story so I'll roll with it. Having the Kiriakis men all gathered together gives me hope these writers just might give us more full family scenes of other Salem residents too. Gabi the spitfire! I LOVE that she doesn't cower, but fights back. Her history of having to be strong among inmates and having a cop brother plays into her confidence and makes her actions authentic. I hope the writers continue to give this character spunk. Plus CB is a stunning beauty to watch. Points to Theresa for busting in on the mans club and saying her peace for Brady. The kiss he gave her was pretty sweet too. I do wish there was a powerful woman to go toe-to-toe with the men on that side. |

Sexism is a hard one on soaps. I mean, I don't have a problem with the men saving the women and having some macho-ness. But scenes that are all men, sitting around making decisions for the family, and literally pushing the women out of the room...I guess that's my line. I'd like the women to be the heroes sometimes, too, but I don't find it particularly grating when the men do it (I'd mostly like a sway because it would be different). But then you have Theresa burst in their ranting about stuff that doesn't even make sense. The whole thing is just so bad. The DiMeras and Kiriakises are apparently involved in a business war, and there is literally only one woman involved (unless you count offscreen Belle. So two). IDK how the rest of you see it, but for me soaps have always been about the women. I have favorite characters who are men, but the women were the standouts for the most part. I want to see THEIR points of view, not just their men's points of view. The three convicts are men. The J&M portion of the story is from John's POV. The S&K portion of the story is from Steve's POV. The Xander part of the story is from the POV of only the Kiriakis men. The stuff with Clyde is all about the men (Aiden, Chad). The DiMera stuff has one woman, but it's still mostly from Chad's POV. Even the baby story is mostly about Philip and Deimos. Supposedly we have a cancer story coming up. My guess is it's Adrienne. Will it be about her? She's on recurring status, so it can't be too much about her. Why is everything about the men? One of the headwriters is a woman! |

I agree with all of this. But next week we have Marlena laying out a plan to catch the villains and I'm afraid it ends up being a stupid plan. While the men fix things. |

It's probably a plan to have the men do things. Though her even having an active spoiler like that is somewhat of an improvement. Which is sad. |
