And then out of nowhere, the show has heart. It’s just great.

Ugh I think you’ll love it. They’re dysfunctional in the best way.

I literally said WHAT out loud. I cannot.

And they’re not even addressing that we already did this with Stefano. I just don’t get it.

And this thing with Kate being jealous is ridiculous, too. They’re probably talking about John’s/their history with Stefano anyway.

This Stefano memorial is so dumb. Why are we doing this ten years after the last one? And after the show had so much fresh loss the last few years.

Meanwhile, then you have Xander over and over again just saying am I hopeless, am I a lost cause, am I hopeless. Yes, go away.

And then I think about how this writing regime is currently writing 2027 and I just want to give up. How are they still employed?

At least we knew body and soul was a joke. This is something they’re playing straight up.

Exactly

Vivian wasted on Gwen and stupid Dimitri. I cannot. This show stinks.

I don’t mind that Marlena is mad Xander fired Brady but he’s done way worse, sinister things to her and their family. This is the sticking point? Sure. They’re just trying to dumb down his villainy to stuff like this but the rest of us remember

But lol weeks of ‘Paul said’ insisting Xander fired Brady solely for his incompetence and today Xander admitted it was only because he was mad about the divorce and that Brady and Sarah are a thing so be took it out on Brady 😂

Xander’s man pain is so annoying. He’s so whiny and sounds like a child. It’s also not the actor’s strength. And Leo and Dimitri whining across town isn’t a good counterbalance.

Absolutely. Some of the good stories Ron had ended to abruptly, and these bad stories seem to be going forever.

Yep

Chanel married Xander for his money and had just slept with her professor. Now she stands around talking about babies while her husband changes jobs every three months.

Writing women like it’s the 1950s lol

Chanel used to be a lot smarter and more worldly. She doesn’t feel like the same character since they made her baby obsessed

Imagine thinking this is doing something for your couple. Other than making their fans seem pathetic.

I had one too 😂

And it feels weird to be doing this on the heels of some pretty major real life deaths that had to get written into the show. And I know Joe died too, but again a decade ago.

The character hasn’t aired in over a decade. And was dying the last time he aired. This is just weird.

Literally a stand alone episode with flashbacks and everything

I think it’s possible the queen of the night stuff was written as the out if Drake recovered. They said they planned how to bring him back and I’m guessing she was going to have dreams that he was out there somewhere connected to the Stefano stuff.

And he was basically here for Tate and Holly. Also fired. But the seem to love the Greenes

He’s probably going to name this next baby after Stefano and they’re going to have some full-blown celebration

Same goes for asking for legacy kids. They know people want that. Instead, they just fired a bunch of them. But the nobodies remain. How did all those legacy kids get fired before these nobodies? They don’t care what fans want imo

What gets me is they could adjust to fan reaction. They won’t. We have been complaining about business stories for over a decade. Same for the CEO merry-go-rounds. Stephanie and her man have been unpopular across three EP’s and two writing regimes. And we keep seeing all of that.

But but it was going to be more realistic and character driven without Ron 😂
