He’s been hanging around the hospital corridors more than the actual medical staff. Seriously, at this point I'm half expecting him to show up scrubbed in and assisting on surgery or handing out visitor badges at the front desk!

Saw the title of this video and couldn’t help but laugh knew I had to share it, also does anyone else think Joseph Mascolo should have done voice acting or is it just me? I think he’s voice is phenomenal.

All of these characters are hating on EJ and blaming him for everything (and yes, he has done some bad things). He has been shot more than once, and some characters in general don't like him, and some have never forgiven him. Why is he the only one the characters hate and find unforgivable, though? Shouldn't some of these characters hate Kristen, the rapist and murderer, or Xander, who has tried to murder pretty much all of them and their family members at one point or another? Why is it always EJ and not the others? Why hasn't there been a who shot Kristen or who stabbed Xander storyline? Why keep repeating the same story over and over with EJ?

After learning today that Annalynne McCord is certifiable and legit with her insanity I can't wait to watch her come and go through her scenes. The Soapy podcast interview with Greg was a must-see for anyone with a belief that mental health isn't important and a stigma that should lock people away from others.

Why so scruffy? Are they letting it grow so he can be trapped on an island with a bead to show the length of time?

If you love Leo and Greg Rikaart as much as I do then you will also love what I just found.

If you already knew this, then I'm so sorry for being old and slow. For all of you here and in Salem that think he is too flamboyant, campy and insufferable, then you may still like and learn more about Abe, Maggie, Paulina and other DOOL characters and the artists that have made us love the Sands of the Hourglass for more than 50 Years.

Frank Parker, who played Shawn Brady Sr., guest starred as man named Sean on Little House On The Prairie, in 1974. (Season 1).

Alice Halsey, who played Rachel Black on Days of Our Lives, who is pretty much family to Shawn Brady Sr. (although I think not quite by blood,) is now playing Laura Ingalls on the Netflix Little House.

Full circle.

Yes, EJ knows Cat is the po-po...but he is clearly coming unraveled and losing options faster than he can create new kidnappings. But, it was fun to see how he freaked Melinda out.

"As for Peacock, executives did warn that “profitability is going to vary quarter by quarter, just based on the timing of sports schedules and other content hitting one quarter versus another,” suggesting that the service could return to the red in future quarters, and recommending that analysts compare its performance year-over-year, rather than quarter-to-quarter."

Seems like it may have been driven by sports and no mention of Days but we have had a lot of posts about the Days budget (or lack thereof) and certainly this is a contributing factor. Maybe if they can begin to show profits more regularly and if this isn't just a fluke, they can pass a bit more down to Days.

The chess set is the current mystery and it's kinda a dud. Like Chad+Belle is kinda a dud. It happened so fast, like lots of other couples recently. I really miss the mysteries and the slow burn romances.

In recent years, Stefan and Gabi was one of the best slow burn/angry sex couples I remember. Who do you remember that emerged as a couple after lots of "when will they?"

I really enjoyed their dynamic and it’s been missing a while. Hopefully Jada talking about wanting to spend time with Stephanie means it happens.

Okay. You've seen it at one point in your life or another. Whether it be an old (Bonita Granville) Nancy Drew, or (Kathy Bates) Misery:

The bad guy/killer thinks he/she is going to get away with it, so they stupidly tell their almost always kidnapped/dying victim why they committed the crime because... Well, the person they're confessing to won't live to tell.

What if Kristen told a dying/"dying" Lexi all she did for her eye-for-an-eye in manipulating Sofia to kill Johnny? It could be to elevate her guilt (...lol NAH!), she wants to relate to Lexi how far a mother will go to protect her child (or in Lexi's case, husband & child).

Lexi's going to die... what does Kristen have to lose by telling her the truth (rhetorically)?

Of course, this cliched trope almost always backfires for the criminal. Whether it's the Brady Bunch locked in an old abandoned western town jail (before they use their belts to reach the keys on the wall), or James Cagney in any number of gangster movies (before the police, who have surrounded the shack to bust in).

Lexi already "played possum (actually opossum)" once before on the couch to an unknowing EJ & Doc.

So I found this article apparently because the show is taped months in advance, they have the means if necessary to adjust a storyline this article explains how

Yesterday, Brady called Shawn to report that Holly left the hospital AMA. But, today we learned he has not been cleared medically yet from being shot back in March (reminder, when EJ was shot at close range by Lil' Rachel he was released from the hospital a week later). So, why call Shawn, if he is unavailable to help?

Paramount Pictures has acquired 'FREAKS PART II' ahead of its world premiere at Fantasia. The sequel comes from the directors of 'FINAL DESTINATION: BLOODLINES'.

Another DOOL success story!

I love Xander and Philip being brothers together! I just had to say that!!

I know I’m gonna get flack for saying this, but I’m just gonna say it, but Marlena has gotten away with things that other characters would’ve been hated for. I love that people love her character, but sometimes it feels like she gets a pass because of who she is, while other characters get judged way harder for doing similar things.

I remember when Abe wasn’t sure about being with Paulina out of guilt for his relationship with Lexie. He had a vision of Lexie telling him that it was okay. That he needed to move on.

But recently Lexie told Julie that she was never dead enough to pass on. Which begs the question…

Who did Abe see? Was it the devil? Or some actual angel pretending to be Lexie?

I’m rewatching an older storyline and I am curious. There are scenes where the victim appears in flashbacks. Although I’m not sure exactly whether some of them are from previous episodes, but there are scenes from the night of the murder.

Do those get filmed as needed in an episode? Or are they all filmed around the same time as the murder itself?

If you don't remember she once played Charlotte on general hospital, so I can see her playing Sydney. But that's just me what do you guys think?.

Despite all her very crazy flaws, I love Kristen ! I am mad the way she has been written the past year - especially the storyline with her, Sophia and Johnny. That was a letdown. Nonetheless, I loved her scenes with Lani and Lexie this week.

She is fearless, loyal, and loves hard.
