The Dan scenes were terrible. I hate when characters are propped like that, but what I hate even more was that Nick was forced to be in the same room with Dan without wrapping his hands around that guy's neck. I don't want Nick to be in on the We Worship Dan Committee. I want Nick to be kept far away from that guy.

I thought the babies were funny today - they seem to be about the same age as my baby who was fascinated by the twins and kept pointing at them and saying baby. :)

I'm not feeling Lucas and Sami. I think I'd like their scenes better if Lucas had more of a quiet rage thing going on. Why does he yell all the time?

And I couldn't watch any of the police station. I didn't think it was at all believable that Marlena wasn't on John's side.

And again, Phloe hotness! :cheer:

I agree with everything you said! Today's show was awful!

Haha thanks. I'm not usually home during the day, so it's such a disappointment to have a bad Days episode when I am home!



Right now I think Sami and Marlena are written as two of the most stupidiest women on the show. :frustration:

LOL I can't say much for the other women either. But didn't you know that (as Corday said) Higley "understands the female point of view"??

The only characters who are even remotely interesting on this show anymore are EJ, Nicole and Ava ..... It will be nice to see them share a scene together!

I turn the volume down when Lucas and Sami are on ... I already know what the dialog is going to be so why listen to the yelling! And they are back to brother and sister kissing!

Phillip and Chloe have ZERO chemistry!

The whole Roman vs John scene was so over acted and so pathetic, Marlena reactions looked so canned! this scene flatlined Major!

haha well actually I meant it as more of a Higley comment. :P I find it funny that the writer hired to write from the female point of view writes women so terribly.

Marlena is driving me nuts. Maybe it's just me who is getting this vibe but over the past few episodes I feel like Marlena almost wants John to go to jail and go away because she hates the new John so much. Then again, I could just be inventing these fanciful motives for Marlena because she is so damn confusing/boring. Yeah that's probably it. Cause I also don't buy for one second Roman's claim that he misses the old John Black and isn't enjoying seeing Jarlena break up.

The writing for Marlena has been absolutely terrible lately. Glad to hear I'm not the only one who thinks so.

And then we find out Dan Christ saved some cute little blonde girl and Chelsea calls him a "rock star"?


LOL I forgot about that. Such a shallow moment. I have a friend who's compared this writing to "Cliffs Notes", and she's right. Like, let's make Dr. Dan look good in 5 seconds or less. Ok, here's a way! The writers need to learn about character development. Haven't seen much of that at all.

I agree. I called the Chelsea/Daniel romance the fast food road to coupledom since we've given no buildup and they are already in love.

So today's show. I really could have done w/o the Lumi scenes until EJ got there. Lucas said something to the affect that Sami should have remained loyal to him which pissed me off (and I'm not an EJami shipper actually). I liked EJ getting indignant with Sami over the annulment papers. I feel sorry for EJ now, not because of Lumi but because he took Ava's case. LOL.

The Daniel propping today was so out of hand. One reason I wanted Nick OUT of Chelsea's life was so he could be far removed from Chelsea/Daniel. But I guess they need to have Nick stand there and talk about how intelligent Daniel is as well as let him walk off w/o Chelsea looking the tiniest bit uncomfortable seeing the boyfriend she dumped talking to the guy she dumped him for. I know Chick is done for good BUT COME ON! (Even the Ava/Chelsea scenes didn't help me with my Chelsea hatred now).

Then we get some random extra showing up with her mom. Of course Daniel is great with kids and was just oh so clever and charming to let us know he's a great guy and Chelsea can worship him some more. And the whole "he's an angel, an honest to God angel" about make me puke. I want to hope that phone call Daniel made means he's gonna have a big fall from grace soon, but I'm sure it's just a red herring. So far Higley loves those.

I was fine listening to Marlena plead John's case to Roman until she made it all about her. The hell? Oh, right, it's Marlena.

Not a Phloe fan at all but I am fine with Philip getting some action. The last person he had sex with was Belle so we need to erase that memory as fast as possible.

ITA! I'm looking forward to their scenes tomorrow! So far that seems to be the best part of the show this week.

I just saw the scene - it was awesome! Nicole is so funny and EJ is in his element sitting between two beautiful women who actually need him and treat him well!

Just finished watching today's show, and wow, has this show gone to hell in a handbag fast or what?

The John/Marlena/Roman stuff was just pathetic. Enough said.

I like Daniel (when he's not with Chelsea), but all this pimping and propping of his character is really starting to make me dislike him.

I FF'd through the Lumi scenes, but I can only imagine they said the same things as usual.

I hate that Ava will be gone by the end of the summer. Sadly, she's one of the few characters left that still interest me.

Tony and Anna certainly aren't my favorite couple on DAYS, but I do feel they deserved to have their wedding focused on. This man is your nominee for Lead Actor at the Emmys. How about we start treating him that way? You don't see Drake Hogestyn and Peter Reckell with nominations.

No surprise. I think the only reason why are Tony/Anna still on the show is because Corday doesn´t want to look like an idiot again to hire someone only to fire them a few months later and not use them at all. He had to be really desperate last year because it´s the same thing he did with Lexie and Adrienne/Bonnie. Sheffer never had any plans for Tana and we´ve yet to see if Dena eventually gives them something meaningfull. But they are totally isolated, not involved in any main story and if they left tomorrow I seriously doubt many would notice. Plus, summer is nearing and that means a story for the sorority gang is the highest priority right now.

One thing I am loving about Higley is that she recognizes that James Scott is a leading man and uses him that way, unlike Hogan who could not buy nor get a clue to save his life. I had trouble downloading the clips, but I plan on trying again tonight. I did see a bit with Nicole and Ava and it was quite funny. It makes me now sad Ava is leaving. I think Ava and Nicole could be Hilarious BFF. :lol:

I have to say as a Tanna fan I am very disappointed in how they are used. They are filler. I would not be shocked if they get written off the show...Look at what just happened to Joe.

Chloe is emotional? Really? I've never been able to tell, since she reacts the same in every situation: dead-eyed and monotone.

NB is awful, awful, awful.

Phillip and Chloe love scene today compared to the EJ and Sami love scene from last week was not even in the same league. EJ and Sami scenes was a million times better! Makes you wonder if Ali and James are so intune with each other that they just make it seem so genuine... The Santeen love scene was brilliant too more romantic and gentle as opposed to the very hot EJAMI love scene. I think the Phillip and Belle loves scene while it paled in comparison to EJAMI was much better that Phillip and Chloe.

ThankGod she let everyone in on her secret because I'm another one who can't tell one of her emotions from the other.

Oh you are so right! I can't stand Chloe/Nadia! I really don't know how actors opposite her don't crack up at her awfulness! How does this woman gets work like that? Was she always this bad? The only time I thought she was halfway decent was acting opposite Brandon Beemer...then again, that probably wasn't her acting!

And the love scene was awful...and I can't believe it with the hotness of JKJ flying around! First, I don't buy Phillip going for her or the friends with benefits thing. Chloe doesn't seem at all interested and Phillip isn't desperate. Chelsea/Dan have more chemistry than Phillip/Chloe!
or maybe CJ is right that anything pales in comparison to the EJami scene a week ago. Too bad that I am hating on Sami right now. Talk about another idiot!

I just can't watch the merry go round between Lucas and Sami. His constant yelling and the same damn conversation was old on the first day, much less the 5th. Please end it already!

And I agree with most people that the John/Roman/Marlena scenes were pretty bad too. I really can't rationalize Marlena at present! Chick needs a shrink! I hope John rips her a new one for the drugging and underhandedness.

Kinda liked the weird Nicole/Ava friendship...they compliment each other. EJ thrown in there was pretty interesting and I find myself raising a brow over EJ and Ava. Two of a kind with the controlling father/shady past thing going.
Ava is more EJ's kind...definitely not as psycho as Sami and that is saying alot.
But it looks like EJ's heart is still with Sami.

As bad as the past few days have been, I am hooked on the show!
