DAYS end FETCH NOW! Posts: 11,120 Group: Veteran Member #91 Joined: June 16, 2007	Matt Jan 18 2013, 02:10 PM I can't express how completely stunned and amazed I am over Sweeney's performance today. IMO, that last scene between Sami & Will has to be one of the most emotional, introspective, UNDERSTATED performances she's ever given. Dare I even say this could very well be the performance for next year's Emmy reel? I was actually getting a bit teary-eyed. Color me shocked! I'm STUNNED that Chloe actually went ahead and told Daniel. That was just a brilliant move. And I can't express how much I'm enjoying Nicole/Chloe as BFFs and co-schemers -- especially now that they've had their blowup over Daniel. That HAD to happen or it wouldn't have been logical. Props to TomSell for doing it and getting it out of the way. Today's show was directed by Albert Alarr from a script by Richard Culliton. If Sweeney does manage to get an Emmy nod out of today, she damn best well send Richard a shit load of flowers. I agree about Sweeney...she really really impressed me today!

LOL, I think you are getting too fancy-schmancy for the likes of these Salemites, Doc. While I love that Marlena is so obviously more intelligent than any of those dimwits in her town, she really should remember to speak in a manner they can understand.

John,stop putting word's in Marlena's mouth and LET HER TALK. Never. John was with Kristen, about to marry her because she was prego and didn't think Marlena loved him back... and Marlena wasn't jealous. Or insecure. Because Marlena KNOWS John better than John knows himself. That's ALWAYS BEEN THE CASE! It's what led to very sexually charged, awkward moments between them in 1986 before they even fell in love. Marlena KNEW John. His soul, his heart, she knew what he'd say.

Thank you, Sami! I don't get Will's passivity either. Me either Because God forbid he be a little ambivalent about the idea of being a father right now or a little uncertain about what he really wants and what this means. I love that Will is being passive, that he's uncertain, that he's maybe even a little scared. I want him to be conflicted between not wanting the responsibility of fatherhood at this point in his life, yet not being able to deal with idea of never really knowing his own child. It's real and is complicated and it's not necessarily pretty. It's exactly the way he's been acting all along and it's consistent. My confusion about Will's behavior today specifically was the passive nature. In my mind, being passive and being conflicted are not the same emotion. It's fine if Will doesn't feel like he's ready to be a father, I just want to feel like he cares either way. Today, it was difficult to tell if he gave a damn during some scenes.

They are developing a slow, onscreen closeness.

Sigh. I do agree with a lot here and was annoyed at the beginning though. He was being too dismissive and not wanting to talk to Sami and I really wanted him to. I think things will change very soon though. I can't wait until he decides that he really wants to be a part of this baby's life, and starts fighting for it...in earnest. That's what I'm waiting for. I hate Dannifer....but I like seeing Chloe plotting against them, so I guess I can suffer through. I'll be rooting for her...which is probably the opposite of what TPTB actually think people are going to do.

Anne to Chloe (about Jen): "I can't wait to wipe that prissy little smirk off her face!" I vote Anne be given a more prominent role on the show just to be a snark machine. Victor could use some more help in that department.
