Geez. My new HD TV really makes me see exactly how blonde Sami is. What do you call that shade? Barbie Blonde? There are no highlights nor lowlights or texture to that shade at all. It's the exact same all-over shade as a Barbie doll. :blink:
I know! Why hasn't anyone told Sweeney that it's too much?

It's seeming like he just found out and is going to use it to his advantage. But I could be basing that on red herrings.
That I can live with, and it would make sense. In fact, I'd be disappointed if he didn't use this to his advantage after hearing Sami wax poetic about the Hallmark movie that would be safe and Syd's life if EJ's existence hadn't ruined things.

Arianne is doing such a good job today. Love her! I'm surprised by how much I'm enjoying these courtroom scenes.

Nathan and Stephanie = ZZZ.

Melanie and Phillip = ZZZ.

I miss Vivian. :(

I think Ali believes the super blond hair makes her look more "Hollywood." She thinks it makes her look more "famous." Or at least that's what people are telling her. Why else would she dye it such a hideous color? I think she's going for the Pamela Anderson/Janelle Pierzina "buxom blonde" look but it's not working at all.

It's been white for a long time, but yesterday it was straight up yellow. At least on my TV.
She's looked like Tweety Bird for quite a while to me.

As a member of the audience, I don't feel I've been lied to if EJ is the mastermind. Everything he's done has both an innocent and non-innocent explanation and nothing about JS's acting has struck me as so fabulous that I can't accept any other explanation than a terrified father. I'll be way more annoyed--WAY more annoyed--if the useless and annoying Tony comes back from the dead to be behind it or there's some other equally half-assed "motive" from somebody I don't care about or for whom this plan would be ridiculously far-fetched to plan and execute.

Okay I can't wait to see this, now. Can we get this judge to go through town verbally slapping people down?

I had to lol at the judge pointing out Sami's penchant for custody battles.

On yesterday's episode, was it me or was Suzanne already adding the subtext of Maggie on the verge of losing Mickey when she was talking to Bo? I was tearing up just listening to her talk about her and Mickey's new life.

One thing I don't get: why the hell would Troy hire a hit man? I think it would have been more interesting if he did/attempted to do the deed himself. At least the actor has charisma and a link to the story.

Where is Caroline during this big inventory brigade?

It was nice to see Jay and Mark stripped today. That said, I really like Nathan and Stephanie together on the show. I almost like Melanie and Philip together. As a character, Melanie is a great fit for Philip. She's fun and accepts him and all of his faults. I simply can't get past the age thing. I agree with whoever said that on the show Melanie and Nathan are more of a brother/sister relationship and I think they should play that.

Oh, Nicole and her tears. I lol-ed@ the judge bringing up Sami and EJ's legal histories.

Okay...this is not really the right thread, but I didn't want to get the UNSORASed one too far off the...tree (?), and it does kind of fit here. Did they SORAS Sydney's age? Did Sami recently mention her turning two, because I totally missed that.
They must have aged her a year. That's not such a big deal. The twins playing her are probably 2 anyway. I really think that it's a good idea to age soap kids 2 years for every year until 16, which is the usual age where SORASing stops and then they age like the rest of the adult characters. That way, it's not some huge jump from 4 to 16 overnight.
You mean like the SORASing they did to Hope on B&B? :laugh:

James was playing it right until recently. The scenes at the Pub when Sami got the call from Nicole, the scenes in Cleveland, and especially the scenes on the pier during the vigil...he played them all well. He had EJ looking very suspicious and you could literally see the wheels turning. Now it seems like he is overdoing it on EJ"s "innocent victim" and "surprised" routine. He does that big time tomorrow too, especially in the final scene.

As unrealistic as the hearing was (I never expect soaps to handle courtroom drama realistically because it would be boring that way), I LOVED it. They took the opportunity to lay out everything Nicole did as well as presenting her side through Brady. We also had the judge highlighting some of the things both Sami and EJ have done, which was hilarious. It really was a nice way of showing all perspectives involved and I think it did a nice job of showing why EJ feels more wronged then anyone else given he was lied to THREE times. That was nice setup.

Arianne Zucker was FANTASTIC. I'm sure she will be tomorrow in her goodbye scenes too. I thought Martsolf and Sweeney were good too today as well as Deidrick and Sprietler. It was also nice seeing Will actually involved and by Sami's side.

I enjoyed the Melanie/Philip/Stephanie/Nathan stuff. It was filler but it was good story development filler.

The Arianna stuff was a waste but I can see they are building up to something there.

Maybe he has bad aim... :unsure:

Her new job is as Sami's full time Nanny for the "twins".

I noticed the subtext too. She does that ton tomorrow building up to the big event as well.

Arianna manages the Pub so that is why she is handling it. Caroline seems to only work when she wants.

I can't agree more about the quad though, although I do see Melanie and Nathan as a couple too. I think the character of Philip and Melanie click as do Stephanie and Nathan. I can see any of the options working but feel the best option still as of right now is Philip/Stephanie and Melanie/Nathan but the show seems open in this regard, which I like. The thing I like the most is that they are basically mentioning all the things wrong with Philip and Melanie that so many do on the boards. They focus a great deal on her making such a hasty decision after so little time being with Philip and how she may be too young to get married.

Dare I say we get rid of DA Joe Isuzu and bring back Jed Allen as Don Craig? After a suitable period of mourning, I think he might make a nice shoulder for her to lean on (especially since they were once engaged to be married. Of course, he was once engaged to Julie, too, but wasn't everyone?)

^That would be cool. I like the current DA but I would much rather have it be a past character or someone with a more important role on the canvas then someone we barely see.

I agree. Melanie is a great character to have Philip involved with. The fact that she's only 19, looks 17 and acts 15 just ruins it for me.
