I did love Belle's reaction to Marlena telling her about the kidnapping & John being missing. |

I'm not sure why it's so far-fetched. He did think she was his daughter (albeit a long time ago). She is the sibling of two of his children, as well as the daughter of two people he cares about. She was also married to his nephew for quite a while. There is a lot more reason for Roman to view Belle as family than JJ or Abby. |

Yea I just commented on the Shawn thing. I guess it's because they haven't shown an inkling of a relationship between the two that it seems out of left field. The JJ Abby thing is much weirder lol. |

Gee, Roman, can anyone who commits murder in Salem get a chance to walk free because it'll ruin their lives or does the deal just apply for family? I sure don't recall you letting Gabi off the hook the way you let Hope and Joey. |

But hey no worries over her doing jail time for that stollen money because if Roman considers you family, jail is not an issue for you. Sorry, Steve. You're just an in-law. |

I get that, although Belle has been out of town for a long time. But on a show where we criticize the writers for creating fake relationships (i.e. Maggie/long-lost kids, Paul/John) or ignoring existing ones (Justin/Steve, Steve/Adrienne, Brady/Marlena), I don't think it's a bad thing when the show takes advantage of actual existing connections. Maybe Belle doesn't view the Brady's as family to her, but that doesn't mean Roman doesn't feel differently for a lot of reasons. I don't know, it just makes it feel like it's a double standard and all we really want is for the show to acknowledge connections we like (even if they are distant) and ignore ones we don't (even if they make sense). I'm not a big Roman fan (particularly not JT's version) but if they are going to use him (and it appears they are) then I appreciate that they are having him step into kind of a family patriarch role. JMO. |

Well you may have get the nail on the head. For all the connections they forget, Roman Belle is an odd one to remember. Forgot to add, Roman must know about John too since the PD was involved. So if anything, that's what he should have brought up today. Edited by Lovejm, Mar 21 2016, 12:37 PM.

I don't think it's a double standard. Roman and Belle haven't had an established relationship since she was an infant, and she's been on the show since then. I also don't think it's a big deal, but it does seem weird. They've had scenes together recently and there wasn't even an implied familial relationship. I don't want random dialogue about family for the sake of having dialogue about family. |

It sounds like Marlena and Belle are really getting into over her going for John. |

I don't think I said I wanted dialogue about family for the sake of having dialogue about family. But I do want connections to be acknowledged instead of having people pretend they don't exist. So, I'm not going to complain when they do that, even if it is out of left field. Again, JMO. |

The resemblance between this new girl and TB is uncanny. It can't be a coincidence. |

MM/JPL "phelle" in comparison to MM/JKJ. However I think JPL did spark with JL, so at this point I would rather they do Lani/Shawn/Belle and some version of Philip/Chloe/BradyTheresa. |

I guess I consider it being out of left field the same as just having it to have it. Again. I don't think it's a big deal but it's not some connection that they're acknowledging. I'm not even sure what context he's coming from which makes it worse IMO. Because none of the contexts have been referenced and they've interacted. If it has just been a year or so since their relationship was a thing I'd feel differently. But it's been two decades and lots of screen time. It's like if Caroline started talking about John as a son again. It was something I enjoyed once, but it's been dropped for so long with them onscreen that it doesn't hold true now. But in Roman's case, it's just excessive. Belle has a billion other relevant connections right now that are being ignored, but they decide to randomly shout out that one? It's just strange. |

Brady giving Philip a hard time about Belle would be much better in my opinion. And it would make so much sense. |

Thank you JCP.

She does seem too much like Ava, Joey needs to get as far away from her as possible. |
