The wardrobe has VASTLY improved since Richard Bloore came back (although Jen still needs to invest in sleeves for winter)

IMO, when a story isn't well planned out, the twists aren't even really twists. They're just abrupt changes in direction. Like, you can't just suddenly announce that Alice Horton was a drug kingpin and that the powdered sugar in her donuts was actually cocaine. You should be able to go back and watch the scenes that lead up to the reveal and see that the writers had been laying the groundwork for the surprise all along.
That's where the babyswitch was a lot better than the Sydnap. I felt like the twists along the way in the babyswitch, while often farfetched, made sense to me from a character motivation standpoint. With the Sydnap, they seemed more focused on having the twists be shocking, so they often failed at making the character motivations understandable.

What? More Harold? I swear that he's appeared more in the last few weeks than he has in the last year!

That was some REALLY nice stunt/camera/production work in the Sami/Nick fake out! GOOD WORK!

Nice touch with Sami touching EJ's pillow. Shows how she feels without having her talk out loud to herself about it.

On a shallow note, I want to see the other end of Jen's boots.

Those scenes were pretty well done and loved her missing EJ.

...Is Theo wearing a plaid shirt with elbow patches? Because, why?

Theo and Jordan's scene was really cute.

the thought of Sami driving a busload of children on a field trip is still ludicrous

so far, the primary draw of Jordan is that Chrishell is just so damn charming & personable in the role

the soundtrack to Sami driving a bus loaded with children? Highway to Hell

this is a rather lowkey episode today, but it's turning out REALLY solid & enjoyable, imo

I can't believe how interested I am today in this Jen/Daniel/Theresa hearing material. It's really playing VERY old school DAYS

These EJ/Sami scenes post-wedding have been some of the best they've been given in YEARS imo
