Bonnie's attempt to country-fy Mickey after Maggie's "death" and the opening of "Alice's".
As good as JE was as Bonnie, I really didn't like this. On top of the "over the top" Bonnie, we had a faux Mickey.
lololololol. camp at it's worst (or best, I guess depending on how you look at it :D)
As horrible of a character as miss Bonnie was I gotta say though thinking back now Judi did a great job with her. Bah, talk about believable.

Adrienne was such a disappointment to me. I freaking loved Bonnie, she was a ridiculous person.
I'm so glad John Clarke didn't have to suffer through this story.
I've loved and been on board with Judi Evan's Beth (GL), Paulina (AW), and Adrienne (Days), but I could not get into Bonnie. Judi did a good job acting wise, but I loathed that character.

Bonnie didn't bother me that much, that was around the time I started watching so I wasn't aware that she was on before as Adrienne... her rivalry with Julie gave me life their scenes were always hilarious
"Fans watch for...the look...when Drake looks into Deidre's eyes, Charles looks into Patsy's eyes, & when Peter looks into Kristian's eyes, the audience feels the love between the characters they play, & that is the building block of a supercouple."- Sheri Anderson

Bonnie was fun for what she was in the beginning. She did start to become a little too much though.
My current soap rankings
1. Days of our Lives
2. The Young and the Restless
3. The Bold and the Beautiful
4. General Hospital

JC was in on the very beginning of the Bonnie horror. Then he retired. I remember thinking how happy I was that the man left with his dignity and did not participate in this trash.jam6242 wrote:I'm so glad John Clarke didn't have to suffer through this story.
Judi as Bonnie instead of Adrienne was bad enough...but Bickey was abominable. An epic fail by DOOL, IMO.
I don't know what was worse. The Mickey recast coupled with complete personality change or the character of Bonnie. Judi was loads of fun with her, but I just could NOT.

HAHAHA! We actually get to see Ciara playing Roman like a fool. lol.
There's also Maggie/Sami talking about the custody agreement, Nick vs EJ, Kate vs Jordan (in an all-out catfight), Rafe/Gabi, and Hope/Aiden (still party planning).
Typical Reilly too, turn a character named Maureen that originated in a storyline that was supposed to be about poverty in America and domestic violence, and then turn her into redneck caricature and golddigger Bonnie. The entire show just downright stupid during this time period. Jumped the shark indeed! And not only did he destroy this character, but it was right around the same time they began to destroy Mimi. I also had a hard time with Bonnie being Patrick's mother too.

I can't wait to watch Aiden try to stall Hope from picking Ciara up (cause Ciara's busy trying to convince Roman to go with Giselle. lol).
Ciara succeeds at her mission to get Roman to go with Giselle - right as Hope gets there. lol. Hope wants to know what's up. Aiden arrives & tells Hope it's not Ciara's fault. Ciara calls Aiden "big mouth".
I HEART THIS CHILD!!

It seems as though Ben's on as well today & continuing on with his "concerned for Abby" routine. lol.
Sami's now talking to Abby. Nick is at the Kiriakis mansion talking to Maggie. Kate & Jordan are still in the middle of their cat fight.
I guess it's not too uncommon for Days to change a character's name, a la Jeannie Theresa. 11 years ago we had Maureen Bonnie, mother of Miriam "Mimi" and Brian Patrick. I wonder why they didn't change Connor's name.

Hope isn't happy about what Ciara did. Ciara still gets chocolate from Aiden. Ciara & Aiden fist pump. lol. (yes, that will be GIFed.)
Abby's asking Ben about how she knows Jordan. EJ's thinking to himself in the DiMansion. Maggie tells Sami what happened with her convo with Nick. Jordan tells Ben she has to leave. Rafe bumps into Kate. Sami arrives at the DiMansion & wonders what's up with the cash EJ has.

Gabi, in talking to Ari, reveals that she doesn't really love Nick & has just been playing along because she doesn't have a choice.
Jordan sees Rafe & Kate talking at the pub.
Nick's talking to Abby.
EJ's actually pretending to be a DiMera.
Aiden, Hope, & Ciara share a box of chocolates.

I'm definitely NOT an EJ/Sami fan, but that last moment of today's episode made me kinda not hate them as much.
HOLY MOLY. Jordan just hauled off and slapped Kate & instantly got 1000 times more interesting
