Hope's objection to Ciara's trust fund is stupid. Hope is a trust fund baby! She's coming off quite hypocritical in telling Ciara that it's not right to have money Ciara didn't earn herself.
Hope wasn't wrong that Bo would be against it though. Hope's trust fund money didn't come from criminal activity (unless one thinks bankers are inherently criminal, since the money came from Addie's first husband, who was a banker).
I don't know. I think Bo would have an issue with Victor buying Ciara expensive presents at her age, like a car or an apartment. Not a trust fund though. Victor isn't the same man he was when Bo first found out he was Bo's father. I think Bo would've reluctantly accepted it, especially if Ciara wanted it.

Bo and Hope certainly never had any issue using Victor's dirty money when they needed the Titan jet to fly across the world on a case. Or when Victor offered his resources to whatever case they may have been investigating at the time.

I hope Ciara rebels after Hope's secret gets out and takes Victor's money. Unlike Brady, I would actually enjoy Ciara embracing her Kiriakis side. It'd be better if Bo was still on the show though.

LOL at Claire calling Hope "Gran." I love that they're finally embracing the relationship. I do wish Hope took more of an issue to having a teenage granddaughter though. Like when Marlena came back a few years ago and would jokingly scold Will for calling her Grandma in public.

And I agree with others that the Claire/Ciara shade fest has come out of nowhere, but regardless, I'm loving it. I'm not sure who I want to be the bitch :lol: . On one hand, history shows Ciara can be quite the schemer, and Hope was no angel at that age. And with Claire, she is Belle's daughter. Belle was pure as undriven snow at Claire's age. But on the other hand, I'm getting the feeling that ORK is capable of playing a great bitch. Just from the little bit she's giving off so far.

It may be the unpopular opinion, but I have to say I'm really enjoying today's episode. Even the scene with Hope, Rafe and Roman. I liked Roman giving Rafe grief about his costume. I'm so ready for this stupid story to get resolved so I can start enjoying these characters again. I'm seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

This sounds so much like when I started re-watching the show in 2010. We were being forcefed Rafe the "hero," even though he was smug, arrogant, and not remotely constrained by the laws he was supposedly enforcing.

Dena's obsession with this terrible character is ridiculous, and it is mind-boggling that nobody at Corday, Sony, or NBC has put an end to it.



"Didn't she say in an interview recently she wouldn't let anyone dictate (interfere with) the story (and added "not this time")?

It's the only episode I made it through in its entirety this week. That's an improvement for me lately. :blulaugh:

Anyway, this works fine. Honey, you look horrific.

I liked Joey's costume today.

That's all I got - this was a mess (but I'm glad John/Marlena visited Abe and are hanging with Steve/Kayla).

I really wish it was Allie in Claire's current role. I think it would play much better. When the decision to write off Belle and Shawn was made, Claire should've left too. It would've sucked losing ORK, but Allie's presence in town would've made much more sense, considering Allie at least has a parent in Salem still. Claire has none. Plus, Allie and Ciara already have a sort of established rivalry from childhood that they could've played up.

I don't disagree, but I'm actually enjoying her, given what little she's been given lately. I have a feeling that's about to change though. With Hope's secret coming out, I expect VJ to be given some heavier material that has me worried.

I wish Jennifer was accepting JJ's award on his behalf instead of Roman.

Well it had better not be Nicole's egg that he used. I'm pretty sure harvesting someone's egg without their knowledge even if it is your fiance should get someone struck off the medical register regardless of intentions.

Talk about having an unhealthy GOD complex.

Good thing he's dead.

I agree 100% and it definitely helps that we did see Allie/Ciara as kids together similarly to Ciara/Theo.

EDIT: I'm just imagining an alternative reality where Allie and non-rapist Chase team up together Lumi style to cause trouble for Ciara/Theo forcing Lucas to reflect on his scheming days. :cloud9:

I wish one of the adults had said something to Claire about what she said to Ciara. Makes no sense to me that she had three grandparents standing there listening to her talk that way to a closely shared relative. It didn't have to be a serious dressing down or anything.

Cracks me up that Days being up 1,000 viewers is the ratings headline for the week.

What the fuck did Deidre Hall do to the hair stylist on this show?! Her hair always looks like shit anymore.
I think she mostly styles her own hair.

Did anyone else feel like they were laying it on too thick with all the "Hope is so beautiful" comments today? Now, I've always thought KA was one of the most beautiful women ever, but it was so strange hearing it over & over today.

I remember a time when Bo was just fine taking blood money from the DiMera's... but that was RKK's Bo so maybe that doesn't count? :shrug:

He was trying to be positive lol. All the other soaps were down from last week.

And sorry for posting it in the wrong thread :D .

Yikes! She started making some awful choices then. Primarily around 2013 to present.
