OMFG, why is Jack dressed like Mr. Rogers? LOL, Aunt Kayla is now the designated sitter of Sami's brood. :eyeroll: At least Sami found someone younger and more energetic to dump her children on.
Jack's striped shirt wasn't too bad, and I could live with the camel-colored pants, though I think navy or gray would have been a better choice. The neutral cardigan, though . . . not so much. Definitely the Fred Rogers look. I'd rather see him in a professorial tweed jacket--more appropriate to his profession.

But I thought the haircut was reasonably flattering, and I liked the touch of his wearing an "I voted" sticker on his shirt. A subtle reminder that the election is going to be spotlighted all week.

Brady with tears and drinking booze. Isn't he an AA member? Who's his sponsor? Maggie? WTF is Maggie?

It really is the cardigan that gives him that Mr. Rogers feel. I like the button down shirt and I could live with the pants if he had on a suit jacket or trench coat. I do think that Matt looks good in general. I like the hair and I think he's put on some much needed weight because his face has lost that gaunt look that it had when he first came back. He looks great, he just needs a better wardrobe!

Honestly, you guys are all raving at what a wonderful caregiver Kayla is but we have yet to see Joey...they could've easily had him in that scene too with Kayla and the kids. It's pointless to always have him upstairs, especially if Johnny is there. They are certainly writing him as a young child, possibly Sydney's age, why not show him?

Honestly, this bugs me too. Why can't they bring in a kid to play Joey for a few episodes? He would have fit in perfectly in that scene. For anyone who watched GH, I think that adorable little blonde blue-eyed boy who played Jake Spencer would be perfect for Payla's son.

I assumed that was some sort of "Vote!" sticker that Jen slapped on him.

That makes more sense. Between the bit on his shirt and the sweater I had wondered if he might be working for a local TV kids show in his spare time.

All Jack needs is some specs (glasses) and the outfit just might work. :sarcasm: :puke:

My guess? He's not the football in a past, present, or future custody fight. :laugh:

It's funny how everyone still acts like Jack & Jen are together. First Lexie asks Jen about spending Valentines with Jack and now Austin tells Jack to give Jen their best.
At least it is consistent and believable writing. It also gives me a little more faith in the writers that they are writing the whole town thinking "obivously Jack and Jennifer are together, they are Jack and Jennifer".
I do not like these recent comments regarding Jack and Jen. They do not make any sense. Lexie and Austin both know Dr. D and Jennifer were a hot item. Do they just assume since Daniel left town, Jennifer chose Jack? Yes, it makes for consistent writing, but it doesn't fit the current SL. Did TPTB forget to send an internal memo to the writing team, Daniel left town and JnJ are still not together. Very confusing, if I say so myself.
The J/J/Dan story is a mess and itīs really impossible to tell where it will go after Daniel returns. Given that nearly hysteric goodbay Dannifer had before he left Jennifer should be thinking about him day and night and especially on the V-day and probably be upset he didnīt even call or send some gift. And she should ask Mel and/or Maggie if they didnīt hear from him lately. Instead they hint J/J made an offscreen deal to not do anything because... they are still dating???

I would bet that was the original direction of the story before the rewrites and they simply let it pass. Jennifer pining for Daniel while reluctantly staying in the relationship with Jack is something all J/Jīs fans would hate but it makes the most sense given how the story progressed so far. And even Missy apparently believed thatīs the case when she did that interview about the goodbay for SOW not knowing half of the scenes ended on the cutting floor. I believe the rewrites started when Jack declared his freedom. That had to be an emergency move after so many people started hating Jennifer for leading Jack on while clearly preferring Daniel. Unfortunatelly, they had only time/money to rewrite few key episodes after that and the rest simply ended in the trash can. Jack had no story outside the triangle (I donīt think the PTSD can be called a story) so he is not on at all, Jennifer was lucky to also be in the election story so we can still see her, but she is almost robotic in it and fully focused on the plot.

LOL at that clip!!! Ally is a full head taller than Johnny--who is the same size as Sydney!!! LUCAS, please come and claim your son! :)

Poor Caroline, she's off the show and now Kayla's wasted as a babysitter to Sami's brood--and bartender at the pub. All that time in medical school for NOTHING.

Using MBE as the beast's babysitter is SHAMEFUL.

Every new older man who appears in Salem or to Salemites has tapped Kate. Every one. Such a tacky slut.

Rafe seems attracted to Carrie, but feelings, I am not so sure. Carrie for sure has feelings for him b/c she has admitted it to Marlena and tried so vehemently to deny them to Austin and Sami. To me, it was stupid to write Rafe the way they did in the first place. Rafe was not a cheater, and the Rafe we have known for over three years would never have acted the way he did with Carrie.
I don't know why they are writing Rafe to not say anything when asked that question. In case of Kayla, I can understand why he doesn't answer her b/c it's not really any of her business, but he knows Sami, and he knows she will keep digging and asking til she finds out the answer. He would be better off to tell her the truth, IMO, if he does/did have those feelings. Sounds to me like the writers are leaving it open-ended as to whether Rafe really has feelings for Carrie.

Everyone is sacrificed for "da plot". Although I am really happy that Carrie and Sami didn't have an all out brawl as was spoiled for this week- unless it comes later but IMO I have no interest in watching 30something year old women fighting like little girls. Sami especially has taken part in enough of them for my taste and these ptb clearly have amnesia Sami left Austin at the alter after realizing she did not want him and then CAUSTIN got back together and married - where they went to Switzerland. So the writers are in correct that Carrie "stole Austin". If they didn't return in 05 I could buy why Sami would say that unless it's to show that she is really losing touch with reality. IMO for their last appearance it would have been more believable if she mentioned Lucas being taken away from her last time and not Austin who Sami knows full well always loved Carrie and was Carrie's man. Just something that made me go :huh1:

I may get reamed for this, but it may be time for a new Johnny. I think that kid is a cutie pie and he's a good little actor, but the size difference between him and his "twin" Ali is getting ridiculous. She looks huge compared to him!
