Jade joking about murder is disturbing. Are we supposed to like her? Another useless and unlikable character.

Its sad to say but I don't even care enough about this version of Belle to want to watch her reaction to John being kidnapped.
:hail: :hail: :hail: preach!! I'd only care if it were 2004-08 MM version Belle or KS as Belle.
"Preach it" :hail: :hail:

I'm sure I'm in the minority but I'm not feeling the mother-daughter vibe between KA and VJ. Their scenes today were OK. I'm not sure what I was expecting - probably more from KA since VJ is still fairly new :shrug:

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

Could they be going for a Ciara/Theo/Claire triangle?? Which was my original thought when I found out they were being SORASed.

I still want JT for Claire though!!!

True KA always had amazing chemistry with Jason Cook and Lauren Boles. She's also great with Brandon. I'm just not feeling it with VJ yet.

Bev wasn't useless. AP and CM actually had chemistry unlike TO'B. :shrug:

Hope says don't kill. We're not DiMera's and the guilt never goes away
Posted Image Posted Image

What guilt? Hope stated that she wasn't sorry that she killed Stefano. It's amazing how much I hate Hope now. I used to like her.
Has she said that since she found out she might have gotten the wrong guy?
For me, it doesn't matter when she said it. :-/

I really liked today's episode. I haven't been commenting much lately but I really do appreciate the way the show is playing all the beats, even at a quickened pace. You can tell this is definitely not Higley.

I have not been bothered by Hope's reaction to Ciara because this is how I would expect her to be. She wouldn't be one to freak out in front of her daughter. She would be strong for her, Today you saw a little bit of that facade break down and I think we will see her fully lose it over it eventually but I am happy with how they have handled this. There scenes today were so good and I had mentioned a few weeks back how I was hoping they would use what the kids did with Chase and Ciara thinking of killing him as a way to have Hope face her own guilt over what she did to Stefano and they did! That is good writing. And I really like the way they are utilizing Theo and Claire now. The teens have their own stories and they tie in with the parents. Great!

I have no issue at all with what Roman is doing. Why? Because just like those awesome Roman/Hope scenes a few weeks back where he covered for her, he once again mentioned how after all these years he has realized that sometimes things are not so black and white and sometimes going by the book is not the best way to handle things. He had a line to Kayla today where he said that "sometimes justice is served a different way" or something along those lines. I am not saying I want Roman to always do this but I can buy him doing this when it ties back to the Dimera's and also to someone like Ava because they have continuously worked the system and gotten away with crime after crime. You can only take so much of that before you finally say to hell with it. I would never say that in real life but this is a TV show. You can't apply what happens on a TV show to real life. I wouldn't want my shows to mirror real life in those ways. The amount of crap the people in Salem have been through and the amount of times they have seen criminals get off scot-free...it's about damn time some of them reach their breaking points and start reacting. It's been far too long and I am glad they have Roman mentioning it and struggling with it but realizing these are innocent people who have been pushed to the brink and letting them pay for trying to put an end to a person like Stefano or Ava is basically letting them win. I hope they keep playing this up more because given how Days has been for the past 30 years it's a theme that is fascinating and something that can really drive some story for quite awhile.

I also really like Jade because she is a reflection of how different society is, especially some young people. There are people out there like her that are drawn to dark stuff. It fascinates them and interests them. The actress seems to be ok enough and I like that they at least gave her a personality and something that makes her unique and contemporary. Much better than what they did with Paige.

I am glad Shawn and Lani got some focus as did Belle and Philip. Wish they all got played more. The Marlena/Belle stuff was really good. It was nice to see MM and DH play off each other like that.

When Ciara isn't giving a speech, she works much better on the bar.

Too much focus on Joey. He's a weak actor and I'm not interested in him spinning off into more story with the equally unappealing Jade. Take a seat.

Well doesn't Roman always have an answer for sliding past the law now. :blulaugh: Fine with me. I'm tired of watching the cops continually fail to bring justice to master criminals who have dogged them for years. Stefano check. Andre check. Ava check. Everyone gets a free pass in the underhanded way their downfalls had to take place! Hope, Rafe, Joey, Kayla, Steve and Roman you're all good. If your professional ethics start twinging take a look at some old case files of dead bodies left with no vindication whatsoever. Guilt and remorse for these thugs is boring. Let's move on with a clean slate and handle the new uprising of Salem villains.

Go get your man Marlena! Nice to have Belle clued in on her father.

Damn it Hope get Ciara out of Jennifer's house! This is way too fresh and she's dealing with enough without having to live at the scene of the crime! How stupid is it that this even needs to be a conversation between them?! Get the hell out!

I was pretty bored with this episode even with cuties Claire and Theo hovering to support Ciara, which I really liked.

Jade's statements really concern me. I don't think we needed another disturbed teenager. Joey needs to run away from Jade as fast as he can. Roman---just retire. Once you turn in to a dirty cop there's no going back. I am glad that Hope is going to get Ciara help. Also glad that Hope said that she's not 21 and shouldn't be drinking. The bartender was there to say he didn't serve her, but dude you were watching a minor drinking in that establishment, so maybe you should have stopped it earlier? Just a thought.

If Roman weren't in the middle of other cover ups, his statement about "this began with him years. It will end with him, too" could have some really good depth behind it. Well maybe if someone else were Roman.

I like this Hope/Ciara scene so far. Of course I do. This is what VJ is good at. It's not KA's strength, though. I still need her to be more effected.

See, Belle. Philip is smart. He recognizes that Marlena is about to strangle someone and he wants the heck out.
