That was a comment Maggie didn't need to say. Saying things that aren't needed is done a lot on this show. I highly doubt that Victor cares more than Mickey did. |

Top moments of the episode for me were 1) Justin and Adrienne 2) Bonnie shoving Maggie into that chair [twitter=marino_angie/status/922980228200251392] |

I wish Carlivati would've made Bonnie a smoker again. No good reason why. I just like watching her smoke. Lol |

I actually kind of liked today. The Bonnie cut to Adrienne stuff was done pretty well. Finally some pretty good drama there. Bonnie throwing the flowers at Brady and knocking over Maggie was hysterical. Justin and Adrienne reunion at the end was moving. We should have seen more of Adrienne in prison but they handled this pretty well. Edited by KBrady, Oct 24 2017, 08:25 PM.

I am still puzzled to why they needed to tape the reveal scene again. The only thing I can think except for technical issues is that Maggie screamed Steve's name in a strange way. When they taped again, Maggie's voice was toned down when she said it. I didn't expect them to treat J/A any better than they treat most of the vets. Sheri seems to be making sure Ron understands J/M, so there is at least that. I don't understand how J. Aniston is on so much without being on contract and in one story after another all the time. If they can do that with him, they should be able to do that with Wally and Judi. :soapbox: |

The high point of today was absolutely BonBon shoving Naggie into the chair. Naggie and the toothless, tamed Victor were awful, as usual. I can see how RC will be spinning Adrienne's quick turn around to Justin. She sees him as her savior. Steve and Kayla figured it out and got things rolling but Justin is the one who was there to stop Adrienne from going into isolation. Drunk Lucas was no help. I was not fond of the Sami/Hope stuff with Rolf. It felt off to me. Too campy when the situation is very serious. I did get a snarky smirk on my face when the criminal Hope arrested Sami. Oh she is so law-abiding herself. |

I love Steve figuring it out and taking charge. I love his exasperation at Bonnie and Maggies arguing too. Stephen Nichols is such a good actor no matter what they give him. He deserves better writing. I'll just take more writing for him. |

Re: Wally and John: Wally also does GH, which likely limits his schedule at Days. Obviously Days could offer him a contract again, but Wally seems pretty content doing both shows on a recurring basis. Also, John chooses to be recurring, unlike most others on recurring status. Otherwise he'd probably be contract like Suzanne, Josh, James, etc. That's why he's probably treated more like a contract player story-wise. |

Okay. So today was fine. It'd really be pushing it to say I enjoyed it, but again, it was watchable. I don't enjoy Judi Evans. I don't enjoy her as Adrienne. I don't enjoy her as Bonnie. Today was no different in that regard. I'm really disappointed that they didn't explain how Steve came up with Bonnie Lockhart. I'm even more disappointed that Maggie found it so shocking. The Hope/Sami stuff didn't play out at all like expected. I thought Hope actually came across as compassionate...specifically when she told Sami she was afraid of what she'd do if she didn't lock her up. I don't believe Rolf is dead, but I wonder if that will be something the show just keeps in its back pocket until they want to use him again. I also think they've made several references to Rolf maybe having some information about Stefano. I wonder if that will come back at some point. I'm tired of drunk Lucas. Alcoholics aren't generally drunk every second of every day. I don't enjoy his performances as much as many, so it's really gotten old for me at this point. It annoys me that Maggie is okay with Victor talking her out of trying to help her nephew...and with him talking about her nephew the way he did. She didn't really do much anyway, but I thought Camila was terrible today. Just awful. I really wish they'd get Eli away from her. I still love Sheila, but I'm thinking the Eli/Sheila story tomorrow might end up ruining Eli. |

Oh! And also it REALLY helps when other characters mention to Hope that she killed Stefano. That helped the arrest scenes for me immensely. |

It is interesting that all three women were in prison because of someone else. Bonnie locked up because she took the blame for her daughter. Hattie set up by Andre. Shelia telling Eli that he was reason she was in prison. |

Im not sure how Eli can be ruined. He is one of the most under developed characters they have and we literally know next to nothing about him. |

Easy. Right now he's Rafe's partner. Rafe is scum, and it was going to be nice having someone who isn't scum working "with" (or probably doing his job for him). If he is also scum...ruined. |

Eli could have been scum all along is my point. Its not like it'd be a rewrite or retcon or whatever. I guess we have different definitions of what "ruined" is. |

I didn't say it was a retcon or rewrite. :shrug: He could have been scum all along, but we didn't know it until now...and now that we know, he could be ruined. He may not be. But I am concerned that he will be. If he weren't in law enforcement, I wouldn't care. That happens to be an issue on this show right now. |

I loved everything about today's episode except for Gabi and Eli I think Eli deserves better than Gabi and Gabi just bores me I used to like Gabi before they ruined her by putting her in the story with Chad and Abby. I just dont like her anymore I am just happy I dont have to watch her mope around and whine anymore. I wish they would get Eli far away from Gabi. |

I didnt say you did say that. :shrug: Im just saying thats my definition of "ruined." Like Hope was sort of ruined for many because she turned into a cold blooded murderer when we know thats not who Hope is. But with Eli we dont know who the hell he is, so he cant be ruined. His story can go in a direction you may not like, but a blank slate cant be ruined. I get what youre saying, but Im just offering my POV. ;) |
