Oh, I agree. The last thing Salem needs is another baby. |

I really hope not. I like them as friends. But like I said before, the one thing sorely missing in this story for me is a legitimate love interest for Hope, and not another Patrick. They need to skank Hope up a bit, LoL. Someone she has a really hot, sexy chemistry with...and that isn't Justin. Obviously Bo and Hope have chemistry, but I don't know that they've ever been the "sexy" couple. When I think of Bope, I go "AW! They're so CUTE!" Even John and Marlena were arguably sexier than them, and J&M are hard to take in big doses (on the love scene level). Barly is just OK. I'm on the train because it's a good story, but I still feel Carly has better chemistry with characters other than Bo. I can't WAIT to watch the Hope/Carly confrontation. I actually can't wait to see Hope call Bo while he's in bed with Carly, too. Hilarious and dramatic all at once! Now off to catch up! :) |

LOL that didn't stop Hope from getting knocked up whilst being a grandmother. They are barely mid-40's here, haha. I don't think Carly will be pregnant, but then again, this IS days. If she is, I definitely see a miscarriage. The reason I say so is because she's already in town looking for a long lost daughter, so it would be overkill. They should just bring Nicholas back instead. :wub: |

LMAO. Wow - Alice made a casserole? That is just...wow. I mean, the gesture of the character is nice, but writer's? Really? I thought they just said she was FRAIL. First, she answers the phone by herself and now she's making a fucking casserole? Where's this woman's caretaker?! Will's a dumb pretty boy. I expect more from the son of Sami. |

I think the infamous casserole was made by Will's other great-grandmother, Caroline--you know, his mom's babysitter. |

Loved Hope and Carly today and loved even more that at the end of the episode Bo returned to Carly...I want to see these two out in public as a couple. While I did feel for Hope, she has pushed Bo away one too many times and I hope he doesn't come back... On another note...if this was real...could you imagine what Billie would think if she heard over in London that Bo and Carly were back together? That would be priceless. She'd probably feel like crap knowing that Carly did what she tried to do for years...and that's take Bo away from the very selfish Hope. |

I liked the episode too! Hope and Carly's scenes were great! I thought the ending was poor taste. I'm glad Bo stopped Carly from leaving but he shouldn't have kissed her. I think Bo's thinking with his balls right now and not his head!

Kristian and Crystal were fabulous today! I loved the opening scene with Hope screaming in Carly's face. "Get out! Get the hell out! GET OUT!" Kristian was actually quivering. Her anger looked and seemed so real with the way she was pacing back and forth and using mannerisms that I've never seen her use before. If I didn't know any better, I would swear that Kristian and Crystal actually hated each other in real life, LoL. I loved that little breath Carly took after Melanie left the room while staring daggers at Hope -- "alright, you listen to ME." You could tell she was pissed that Hope had aired her dirty laundry so carelessly in front of her potential daughter. And then the way Hope got in Carly's face and pointed at her -- "You had SEX with my husband! How dare you! And you want me to respect your privacy?!" Also, I think both actresses ad-libbed a bit today. Kristian started saying her line ("thank God you were here to comfort him") before Crystal was finished speaking, which prompted Crystal to raise her voice, and then the ad-lib came with Hope saying "keep your voice down, there are people in this house!" To which Carly replied, "YOU stop talking over me!" and Crystal kind of pointed in Kristian's face, LoL. It was awesome and realistic and it seemed very in-the-moment and ad-libbed to me. If that's the case, then kudos to both actresses, because it made for a great scene. |

Sometimes I just want to smack Bo. I’ll sit on it, and let you be conflicted Bo. Wonderful scenes between Kristian and Crystal. Kristian with the attitude works well for her, and I loved seeing her more as the aggressor of the two. I loved Crystal’s balance of calm, collected and thrown in a little bad ass. There is a subtly in Crystal’s performance which sometimes makes me ask myself if she really did pull that move—the best one from today would have been that final seething death glare, but the finger point to the nose was pretty brilliant. |

I thought those were ad-libs too. Very in-character and perfect though. In fact, that was the best part of the entire conversation. Perhaps the actors should do their own writing. |

I loved that too. It was so interesting to watch Hope going ballistic, pacing back and forth and tearing up the carpet while Carly just stood there cool, calm and collected. I'm sure Carly's non-reaction to Hope's fury just pissed her off even more, LoL. I also loved the way she cocked her head to the side so subtly when Hope screamed at her to get out. With what one little head movement, it's almost as if she was saying, "What the fuck are you doing? Look behind you, bitch. You're making yourself look like an ass in front of your entire family." |

Smacking Bo is not exactly what I have in mind when I see Peter on screen, especially after having seen him shirtless FINALLY. But that's another topic. Kristian and Crystal were fantastic. Amazing. Some of the best acting on DAYS in eons. I have always believed KA is at her best as a vixen......she does that so much better. Hope the victim martyr heroine is so not appealing......Kristian can pull off in control, ready to fight, ready to take revenge. But anyway, it was a good show today. Heck I am even starting to enjoy Arianna and for the first time in eons, I like Chloe and Daniel and found them good TOGETHER. |

I think this is what's grabbing me too, re: Kristian - I like her as the aggressor. I can watch nice Hope any day of the week, and I like her, but I tend to love her when she becomes a bitch, lol. |

Tuesday comments... The nurse was definitely contrived with Bo and Hope at the Brady pub, but it still brought on an "Oh, shiiitttt" reaction! That was too good, lol. I love Hope's "sexdar", as Crystal put it, too. Doug and Hope were cute, I always love their scenes. One thing it does show, though, and it might just be me...Hope is kind of emotionally immature for someone in their 40's. I think her character has always been that way, though. Lots of people are, but it was quite clear in the scenes with Doug. There's a part of her that's independent, but a part of her that isn't, as well. The Bope moment got me. I love Bope, even though I'm not rooting for them to be together. They're still cute. Their hug totally got me, and I loved how she wanted Bo for support. It's cheesy, but I admit it - I love their little psychic connection, or whatever, lol. Not that that was really used here, but I guess their connection in general. Bo in bed during Hope's call was freakin' awesome. I was cracking up - what a douche. Pretty much no one is rootable in this story, but it's totally working. "You whore, you sleep with my husband than you come here?" was classic!!!!! I really don't have much to say about Bope/Barly, because it's all just...good. Loving every minute, and I know I'm enjoying it because I'm not obsessing about where Kate is. Love Kate, but I tend to cling to the character when I'm not enjoying other things on the show. Suzanne was great, she actually brought out some tiny (tiny) tears in me at the beginning. The scenes with Lucus were quite good, as well. I was pleasantly surprised by Datillo in those scenes. Will is a downer, and I'm not sure why Mia was breaking the news to him. Whatever. EJ/Sami - meh. EJ's a manipulative asshole. What does he want Sami to do? Sami's such an idiot keeping this secret, but I'm really waiting for her reaction and revenge on EJ when she finds out. When she said this situation has changed her, I thought maybe we were going back to a more hardcore version of old-Sami... Teeny-bopper quad is a mess. Maybe Phillip and Hope can have sex (after she gains a 10 pounds), instead. She needs to stick it to Bo, too - not that she hasn't already by being a bitch, but more of an 'eye for an eye' thing... |

really enjoyed today's show. but why oh why have they - Lucas and Rafe - been talking about Will being there for Mia, when it's his great-uncle that died, someone who's been in his whole life?? and why did SHE get a breakdown scene?? I mean really?!?! Why is this story all about Mia? I loved Melanie today, but I always do. Looks like a setup for more Melanie/Nathan coming up. ruh roh!! And Carly and Hope were both fantastic. For the first time in this whole thing, I was pissed at Bo. He's going to carry on a physical relationship with Carly and its so unfair to her -- no way he loves her a fraction of how much she loves him. And Hope crying on her father's shoulder near the end was the first time I felt bad for her, like she wasn't blaming anyone else and she took full responsibility for her part in the end of their marriage. I really cared about her pain. I really loved the double date gang too, It's always nice to see more diverse interactions. too bad chloe and daniel were gossiping and Ari heard about Brady's White Knight complex. little do they know that he's saving her ass too. poor Ari!! She was just starting to feel confident in that relationship!! |
