Dare I say it but I actually saw good chemistry between Brady and Theresa today. Must be her new hairstyle.
I didn't :shrug: . IMO the problem is in non-verbal communication. There was a clear gesture of creating some distance, and only partial eye contact in some of the scenes. All of this was totally appropriate for today's scenes IMO, but I can't buy them as a destined couple. It seems like Brady himself isn't sure about what he is saying to Theresa. He says she doesn't have to worry but his eyes are somewhere else.
I'm not a fan of the pairing, so I'm not complaining. It's ok.
I guess I don't study eyes... :shrug: ... i don't think he wants to be part of the clothing buz...maybe because he says so.
I saw Brady confused about these dreams and wanting to know what they mean and wanting to get his life back with Theresa and their baby and focus on the business. I do agree career wise he doesn't know what he wants but romantically he isn't confused and I didn't see any distance between them. Theresa was being the voice of reason and disagreeing with something he wants to do.

Does JG like Roman or something? This is the most screen time I remember him getting since 2004/2005.
and probably the best scenes- with Eric and him running a close second.

The only problem seemed to be her fear.

Yes but I think as this Summer story unfolds we will find she has a right to be fearful.

Now if they can only hook him and Kate back up and bring their children back and NOBODY brings up the storyline they came to Salem in, I'll be happy.

Oh, and I forgot to say how I found it interesting that Roman was watching Rafe/Hope in that last scene of them, as if he isn't sure that all is what it seems. In the fall, it was Rafe that was the smart cop during the SK story line. Now they are making Roman/Lani smart cops. Much better than having the kids figure it all out.

Who the hell gave Nicole all those blenders? Who are these friends she even invited to the wedding? I want to see a guest list.

Unpopular Opinion Alert: I liked the convo between mary poppins and dumbo today. I personally prefer rebel without a cause Theresa and this whole Brady is my everything, he completes me routine has been annoying me. I thought their convo came off as very honest to who they are underneath this weird new the past is forgotten vibe. Theresa is selfish and insecure, undoubtedly, but she also does care about him and actually brought up the only good point in the convo- the man just had a heart transplant.

I personally don't think Griffith wants Brady/Summer to work. I think he prefers Adam/Chelsea, oops! wrong soap - Brady/Theresa.
I think Summer will be their angst with Thrady coming out ok in the end. I do get that JG likes Thrady. I love Adam/Chelsea so why does Thrady remind you of them just curious?
It's not Thrady as a pairing that reminds me of Chadam, it is what Griffith did/does with Thrady reminds me of what he did with Chadam. Only the Chadam story was a little bit (mildly speaking) better written and executed. Chelsea had to give up her first born (rape) baby for adoption, she refused to take Victor's money (was it JG or still MAB?), and only then her redemption story via becoming a fashion designer started. She had no questionable history with Adam like Theresa has with Brady. And MM and MCE had good chemistry.
Griffith's similar efforts re: Thrady kinda concern me because I think we may be stuck with the pairing for a long time.
(I'm sorry if I sound insensitive re:Thrady, I know you like the pairing. I know from my own experience what it means when the majority of the board doesn't like the pairing or the character you like :) :) :) . All our opinions are subjective - different strokes for different folks.)

The boy saw the comet and he felt as though his life had meaning.

I am such an idiot!!! It took me this long to realize there's a "Ben" and "Abby" who are married on Y&R but fortunately nothing like DAYS' Ben and Abby.

What bothers me the most with Eric's scenes is that he keeps wishing he was the one that died. He said it when he was in the hospital too.
With these writers, I wonder if he will try to commit suicide? :(
In his exit interview I believe he said he would continue to spiral out of control, and it would be a real tear jerker. I'm alittle scared where this may go.

I hate that Roman is basically the most rootable person in this dumbass Stefano story.
We NEED to see the fallout when Roman finds out that Rafe AND Hope played him. In fact, I wanna see Andre's face when Roman finds that out. #SinkRope
Roman should be super pissed after giving Rafe a second chance on the force.

I`m wondering if he will try to help Hope because he realizes she is just crazy with grief.
I was thinking the same thing.

How many times have the Dimeras gotten away with hurting people and not paying the price?

What if, as more people are dragged into the story, they decide to protect Hope/Rafe? Currently, they have Roman, Shawn, and John who are getting involved in some way. It could become an umbrella story about turning the tables on Andre. Of course, assuming he's staying on the show, he won't really go to prison, but that gives Andre a long list of people to go after.

I don't know how they can really repair the damage that has been done to Rafe/Hope. Even if Stefano is alive, Hope tried to kill him and Rafe initiated the cover up.

It seems totally intentional now that Roman was clueless about Sami getting the DiMera money in the fall. If he knew that now, there'd be very little to hang this on Andre. But since Sami chose to tell J&M who then didn't tell anyone, it's a big secret.

I do not want anyone else dragged into their cover up. I could have brought her being crazy defense if she quickly turned herself in. But she is being smug and gleeful that she killed a man and is appearing to be getting away with it after framing another man. The only way that hope will be redeemed for me is if none of it happened and she's really in a mental hospital. Stefano being alive would not do it for me.

I was happy to see Nicole today. I thought it was very nice of her to give the gifts to people that could use the items. I also don't blame her for wanting to know who this Summer is especially after finding the file from Daniel's office.

Brady......SMH So Daniel is speaking to him from the grave. Good grief. :rolleyes:

I'm not one minute interested in Eric and Jennifer hooking up. No thanks.

Roman watching Rafe and Hope talking at the end was kind of interesting but I'm not holding my breath that it will lead to anything.

Today I was posting in one of the threads for Y&R and wanted to say "Babby baby" but then decided to use "Stabby baby" because of Days lol.

Belle told Eric minimum 3 years. Maximum 14
I know it's normal soap writing but it still pisses me off that "good" characters truly go to jail and "bad" characters never do.

I'm hoping Abe gets involved soon. Maybe Lani goes to him. He was already suspicious too. Plus the Theo/Stefano angle.
I know it might not make much sense because I'm no fan of Stefano's but it makes me sad that Theo lost his grandfather.

I totally get what you are saying, but I also don't see it as killing "just a man" and framing "another man". It's Stefano and Andre, who have done the shittiest of things over the last few decades.

I don't like how it's been written at all, but I'm kind of hoping that we will see something different with Josh/Beth driving the story instead of Dena. They have to somehow write in a way to repair how they have been writing Rope, at least I hope they try.
