I like the beginning of this so far. The stuff with JJ is playing out well, IMO. I like that they addressed that Marlena is a psychiatrist...they used to do that more when stuff like this would come up, but they stopped a long time ago. But I also like that she just handled it. I like the John/Orpheus/Steve stuff too. The hospital stuff continues to be weird. They're on lockdown, but not for Adrienne apparently. And I don't like Anne so that's bleh. |

I love that Steve told Kayla that John took down O. and was the hero. |

Jack didn't know they were having a son until JJ was already born. Can they check their own history? UGH. |

I didn't think she was talking about when she was pregnant. Just when he found out. |

I may enjoy a Matlena scene when my fav Orpheus tells her what she really is. That should be fun to watch! Go Orpheus! I do hope he comes back in the future and finally take care of the her- the Devil. :). The Justin/Adrienne stuff sounds pretty good. Finally they have scenes that are longer than 5 seconds and there is no annoying Lucas around. |

I liked the episode overall. I hate the "story" Justin and Adrienne are in, so their scenes didn't do it for me at all. Plus it seemed a little oddly timed and out of place. I also hated the Lucas/Anne stuff. I'm just not at all a fan of the Recurring Hour. Put them on contract or stop pretending to care. The hospital stuff continues to be weird. They're on lockdown but only for some people. Plus, everything at the hospital is way too calm now. Otherwise, I liked everything else (except CB). I really liked the stuff with JJ being shot. MR still isn't doing her best work, but it's kind of a good example of one of those times where hitting the right beats in dialogue makes up for the performance. The part about JJ being all Jennifer had left hit really well even though MR played it pretty poorly. The J&M "emotional" reunion was pretty underwhelming, though they've only been apart for about 3 and a half minutes so it's not like it was built up or anything. I like how both have been written through most of this. I would have liked to have seen more emotion from both, but since we didn't get that I'm glad that they had both of them busy. I'm pleasantly surprised they bothered to have her busy. The Orpheus stuff ended up being a mess, and that's pretty frustrating. I liked the scenes with him and Marlena a lot, and I wish there could have been more. It was a nice 45 seconds. But when it gets down to it, I don't buy that he wouldn't have a body count. They should have had him kill Shelle on their way out of town. Just like since Theresa was going to be leaving, Xander should have killed her. Actual stakes. Dare to dream. I think this week has been better than the last couple of weeks, but the main issues are still there. They seem to be actively avoiding anything deep and meaningful. |

I suspect this episode will be wildly popular here, but I hated it so much I may need to take a little break. Yikes. I did at least like Jennifer remembering how JJ was supposed to be born with serious physical issues, etc. |

Casey Moss continues to impress. Not sure Kayla was the best choice to do surgery on JJ.... Let's see, Orpheus needed to be "unlocked" so Marlena could check his arm out. You mean the arm that wasn't "locked"? LOL Rookie cop. LOL Enjoyed the Lucas and Anne scenes. She really is a piece of work. :blulaugh: Good episode |
