Today (Wednesday) show at the Pub

 Sami’s hair made her look like a grown woman but her words and actions sure didn’t match. And the way Marlena had to reprimand her in front of everyone at the pub made it seem like she was 17! 

especially the scenes with Billie/Kate/Ian and Madison.  I think there’s gonna’ be a big ‘shake-up’ behind these characters by May sweeps, and I’m hoping Billie is not as behind Kate and Countess W. as one might think.  After all, Kate did steal it from Billie to begin with, and I’m hoping that’s how they write this at some point.

Loved Marlena yesterday as the referee/mediator between Sami/Rafe/Carrie/Austin, especially considering Caroline was sitting right there.  I’m glad Marlena shut them all down, especially Sami, when she told her to "back off" and then look at her grandmother, and then looking at each of their faces, told them they should ALL be ashamed of themselves.  Yes, I also thought Peggy McKay looked very slight yesterday.  It seems she aged from her last time on screen.  Does anyone know what really was behind her absence?  I’m not so sure it was just a foot ailment.  She did, indeed, look very frail and appeared to have lost a good amount of weight.

Madison and Ian have me intrigued, especially since I don’t give a flying fig if Madison and Brady ever see one another again.  Why can’t they just let Brady find out about Nicole and go rescue her frm Rafe, leaving Madison in the dust and certainly behind in his life?  That’s what I would want to see for him.  I love EM but seems they’re writing him into a corner, and we all know what comes next when that happens.

I hope they keep Billie this way and don’t turn her into a ‘mini-Kate’.  She is reasonable, seems genuine where her feelings for Bo are concerned, and is not going to allow Kate anywhere her love-life.  I think there is going to be an explosive reasoning behind Billie’s return, and can’t wait to see how they write it before I make any assumptions.

Finally, my all-time character I love to hate …. E.J.  Well, I still hate him …. now, more than ever.  Everything about this character screams " SNARKY TWIT."  The writing for E.J. is horrible, and, since I still do not see these writers pinning anything on E.J. (they’ll send a pregnant Nicole to jail before him, IMO), I’ll just sit back and drool over the misery he will be suffering without Nicole, especially when some realizations smack him upside that ugly haircut, which only makes him look sleazier than normal to me.  Ugh ….. can’t wait to see this S.O.B. floating, face-down, in his own cesspool, which he created for himself.
