I liked the show today.

Adrienne and Steve hug!

Steve/Kayla/Joey scenes are pretty much why I'm back. They didn't disappoint.
Chad/Abby wedding and Ben looms!! Should be good.
I like Belle standing up to Justin and fighting for Steve.
I like John knowing somethings up with Steve - just with a look
I see potential for all the other stories. I like new Dario, and I like that there's some unknown going on there.

I've only been watching since last Monday. Feel extremely lucky to have Ava murdered only 4 days in.

Also my strategy for enjoying the show is:
1) Get amnesia about history for the characters. Or really, if there is deviation from what I knew, just ignore it.

2) Keep in mind that new writing team started last Monday (Griffiths first chance without Higley and Milstein new on board).

3) It's actually a good time to get a fresh start. It's a time adjustments may be made to fit whatever new direction they are taking things.

4) Laugh a lot at the silly (this soap is very silly) - Like I think it's a little silly this thing with Brady having dreams about Summer, and turning alittle brain dead about her, but it's all to bring this new character in to wreck havoc. Summer could end up being interesting. I guess the Maggie question is just the pull to get her to Salem. I mean, yes it's silly for Maggie to maybe have another secret child, but surely not the stupidest thing to happen on this soap and it gives Maggie some story. Love her or hate her (I am ambivalent), I think it's good to have characters in each generation have a story. So for the Hortons, she's it for the older generation (isn't she? is there someone else I'm forgetting?). Also I guess writers prefer to write their own new characters rather than bring back Maggie's known daughters?? That way they can just make it all up with very little restrictions?

5) The reality is, the writers have chosen which characters they are writing for right now and I'm just gonna go with the flow for a while. My goal is to watch the whole show and I want to give it all a chance. And not to hope too hard for certain things. Keep expectations down, and enjoy it for what it is. Be patient as stories take time to build sometimes.

6) I hope to god Paul gets a story at last. I hear he will, this is an extra reason I came back. This topic has hazards - as in - they handled it so badly last fall - I might need a lobotomy to accept whatever they do. I exaggerate, I guess my self amnesia idea may work. Just... when Sonny comes back... I might turn a bit bitter and crusty if they don't get it right. (and I really think Will needs to stay dead).

7) Be prepared to bail when Dena Higley gets back. (from what I hear from you guys, she's a disaster).
When you say that you have only been watching since last Monday does that mean you are a new viewer altogether or that you are back after a long hiatus from watching the show?

I like your ideas on how to watch because I`ve had to adopt some of the same ideas for myself over the years. It`s really about the only way to keep going as long as I have.

So Summer has stolen like three things already. I wasn't watching at the time, but was it Josh that wrote the storyline on Y&R of Sharon having mental problems and turned into a cleptomaniac, then trying to burn down the Newman Ranch? I can see some parallels.

Doesn't this mean they should have a relationship - I must say I wasn't expecting Maggie to be the sexually Fluid character.

I checked it, and it seems Sharon became kleptomaniac in 2009 (Maria Arena Bell) but the Newman Ranch was set on fire under Griffith/Phelps in their first full week of airshows (with MAB credited as well).

I liked today. Some quick thoughts.

So glad Teresa was sensible and got rid of Summer. I mean, having a mentally unstable woman you barely know who just tried to kill herself around your child is ridiculous. And Brady continues to be an idiot. I swear, what do women see in him other than good looks?

Summer must be a kleptomaniac I assume. She's stolen 3 things already for no apparent reason. And Summer is what like in her 30s? When would Maggie have given birth to her?

I understand why Chad doesn't tell Abby that Ben escaped, but boy this won't end well.

Dario/Nicole. They had some chemistry, I wouldn't mind a coupling. Dario seems like a decent guy. So far anyway.

Steve and Kayla should get Joey into counseling. Of course, that would be tricky because then he'd have to confess to what he did. So I guess counseling is out.

Chabby was SO adorable today! Loved the bracelet :wub2: I suspect that bracelet is going to be very important at some point since it represents so much and is so unique. I can just imagine it being found on a charred body in a car wreck or with some Jane Doe in the hospital in a coma. I can just see that bracelet being key to a big moment.

I really thought it was going to be Chad's idea to keep Abby in the dark about Ben but it really was JJ who initiated it. Chad told him to tell her the truth but JJ came out with his story and Chad initially looked surprised and then relieved. Is JJ actually warming up to Chad a little or was that 100% a lie?

I actually thought the scenes with Abby and Teresa were pretty good. They had a nice vibe. Love Abby making herself at home as grand dame of the mansion.

Smart idea having the woman you just met (who tried to kill herself by drowning in the ocean, I might add) sleep in the guest room in the same place as your baby.

Theresa's annoyance toward Summer annoys me.

All the women have the same type of flowy jackets/coats. I like them, but... lol, alright wardrobe department, calm down.

Yeah, the smart thing to do is to not tell the woman her attacker is out so that she doesn't have the chance to at least be on guard or anything. Absolutely.

Abby's dress looks like a potato sack.

lol Abby's reactions to everything Theresa's telling her about the storyline are mine, too, so I guess I can forgive the dress.

Nicole looks very tan for someone who was only in California for like a day and spent 90% of the time inside.

I knew Josh had some part on her bipolar story. I can see this story maybe being similar with Summer being crazier.

According to the NBC recap, Justin and Adrienne talked before Steve's arraignment. Justin told Adrienne about Eve moving to New York and Adrienne explained how she is taking it slow with Lucas.

I dont remember what all was showed from the Chad/JJ scene. The NBC recap mentioned JJ thinking Ben would never show his face again and they should tell Abby. Chad thought it was a mistake.
