Well, I still say it's not really Marlena. I refuse to believe that. And yes Judi Evans looked very familar to me too! I remember Adrianne, I think she was on Days. But back then I watched Another World too. We could do a search on the character's name. I didn't like what "Marlena" said to Tony - it's time to meet your maker. Or something to that effect. Now come on, Marlena would never say that!!! She'd be fighting for someone's life, not taking it.

IMO, the writers want viewers to be confused. They don't want you to figure this all out, otherwise why would you tune in tomorrow. LOL So are you hooked again?

Hope became a cop years ago I think. I remember hearing that. My sister-in-law used to watch Days, long after I quit. She would fill me in on what was up and current storylines. She quit watching too eventually.

Ahhhhh, Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives" LOL. I miss Macdonald Carey.
Like I posted before, my wife and I used to watch Days all the time, but haven't in several years. But, I don't think the killer is really Marlena. I'm with you, Miss Mary. I think the writers want the viewers to be confused. The killer will probably end up being either someone who looks like Marlena, or someone with a mask that looks like her face.
Do you all remember when Tony's cousin, I think it was, was on there. Andre or something like that. Didn't he end up being the Strangler?
Hope...that child has 9 lives. Remember when she fell into that pool of acid or whatever that was?
I think one of my favorite storylines on there was when Julie burned her face when she opened the oven door and ended up divorcing or either leaving Doug...been so long ago I can barely remember what happened LOL.
Anyone remember Deidra Hall as "Electro-woman" on the Kroft Super Show on Saturday mornings?

LOL, yea Judi Evans played Adrienne, and now she is playing Bonnie Lockhart, Mimi's mom. She's a money crazed floozy and is trying to get her paws on Mickey's money....and he doesn't seem to realize she has more than friendly intentions!

Hope rejoined the force after her and Bo were attacked at the fashion show so they could be a team again.

Nicole Kiriakis....another gold-digger is very unhappily married to Victor, and has the hots for Brady!

I just watched the episode last night before work, and I agree it was pretty cheesy! :lol: And I also agree that this is just a way to calm our desire to know the killer for now and the REAL reveal is months down the road! :roll: :lol: But that is a soap for you!

Oh Sandi, you'll be so disappointed. So many core cast members were killed off. You may not want to watch! Apparently Ken Corday would be rolling over in his grave if he knew what the writers were doing to his beloved show. It's certainly not the show I loved years ago. I quit watching when Marlena was possessed.

Ken Corday died? How'd I miss that??

Tim, yes...I remember all too well! http://www.storm2k.org/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=19557 Scroll down...you CAN'T miss the pic! :wink:

I taped yesterday's episode also. Even cheesier than the first. Just what kind of doctor is Lexi? You can not defibrillate a person and bring them back to life without also giving them oxygen. And, I'm sorry, but having a nasal cannula with O2 flowing to his nose is NOT going to do it. ABC -- airway, breathing, circulation. What happened to the old days when soap actors held a tube in their mouths that was secured in place to make it appear as though they were intubated? The least they could have done was have a nurse placed a mask and ambu bag over his face while "Dr." Lexi shocked him. For the love of Hippocrates! Being a bit unrealistic with their plots and storylines is one thing, but they could at least be a bit more true-to-life when resuscitating someone from the dead.

Shawn - I'm assuming since someone posted on JTS site that Ken Corday must be spinning in his grave, it must be true. Apparently this new writer, James Reilly is responsible for weeding out long-time beloved cast members. Read all about here:
http://www.jumptheshark.com/
Thought the specific link for Days would work, but it doesn't. You'll have to look up the Days page.

As far as all the medical mistakes, soaps are notorious for getting things wrong in that area. The most realistic med show is ER, or at least that's what I've heard. Most ER's aren't hit to the extent ER is, one patient after another, every single day but the cases are supposed to be accurate.

LOL! Two months later and it's still going on.

I happened to click on the episode info link on my DISH satellite on-screen guide when I went home for lunch. I saw the listing for Days and figured "Eh...why not...let's see what they're up to now." It seems John is going to ask a priest to determine if Marlena is possessed (here we go again!). Then I went to the NBC website and watched the clip where John and Marlena are fighting on the roof. Sami sees it and thinks John is killing Marlena (even though Marlena had John pinned against a wall. Then I guess John pushed her off of him or something and Marlena went flying over the edge. It stopped there. But the episode synopsis for Friday makes it obvious that she woke up and was able to speak.

Why am I not surprised that it's been this long and yet I feel like I really haven't missed a thing? :)

Shawn - well, I'm not surprised either so that makes TWO of us now......sigh. I guess the writers want to recycle old plots b/c most viewers haven't seen them before, since fans from long got fed up and quit watching. Ah, but we old timers......or uh, you insert term of your choice......know better. We've been down this Salem path many times before.....

I will say once again, the Marlena I knew and loved, would never be the killer. No way. So I am standing by that statement/belief until we know who it really is. But by then I'll be in nursing home, rocking in a chair, somewhere muttering - Days of Our Lives? What's that? he he

Marlena pulled the gun on John. They struggled for it and she fell of the terrace.

You know I was thinking of this subject after you posted yesterday Shawn. Perhaps others do not understand what we're trying to say here. We're of course shocked that 1. So many long-term beloved characters/actors have been killed off. 2. Here's the kicker - it's implied that Marlena is the killer! For anyone who watched Days during it's hey day......bad pun there.....we just can't accept this.

Maybe if I put it to you this way - would the beloved main character from the Mary Tyler Moore show, Mary Richards, have been a murderer? No way you say? Well, Marlena is our Mary Richards. So when this topic pops up again, I think I know what Shawn is getting at - even though we no longer watch this show, we're still upset at what the insane writers are doing to 'our' once beloved Dr. Marlena Evans!!!

Thanks for letting me say that. Felt that I just had to put in that 2 cents worth.

Mary

I have to agree, Mary. I hate when they do stuff like that to favorite characters!

I was shocked when the "Third Watch" writers decided to have beloved paramedic "Doc" Parker go postal. They've already killed off a handful of main character firefighters over the course of the past two years. One of them was the main reason I started watching. They've decided to focus more on the cops, making it another NYPD Blue/Hill St. Blues/cop-type show.

It started out feeling like such an original show because it was all about the teamwork between the cops, the paramedics, and the firefighters. They even earned Emmys after writing episodes featuring real-life FDNY's after 9/11. (Also, one of the actresses is married to a real-life FDNY firefighter.)

It was so weird. They had Doc get dressed up in his dress blues, complete with white gloves and everything. Then he took a gun from his girlfriend's bag (she was a cop and it was a brief thing for them). Then he went to the station house and started shooting and held them all hostage. It was as if they were going to kill him off in a suicide-by-cop manner (like how so many of those situations end). But instead, he went peacefully. And now I guess that's the last TW fans are going to see of him, since he's off seeking psychiatric help. He was the most stable of the bunch -- by the book, caring, calm. It was just so weird.

So, it's the same with Marlena. Even though I'm not all that into it right now, it's weird to read about how it's all playing out.

So now, it's gonna be a hoax? Didn't I already mention that once...sort of? :) The whole Bobby-in-the-shower/Pam-waking-up-from-a-dream Dallas bit? :) So, what's it gonna be? Sami waking up from a dream to find out Marlena and John are still together and not John and Kate, who Sami despises?

Gee I thought Garrett was teasing....so it is legit? It's ~really~ all a hoax? Yeah, you called it Shawn! Does anyone have links for the latest Days news?

That's a rotten shame about TW Shawn. I've only watched one episode, the one where Susan from ER crossed over onto TW. But I was impressed, there wasn't anything like it on TV at the time. Wish TV writers would create characters, remain true to them, keep their facts straight (for example on Cheers Frasier's father was deceased, and on Frasier, voila Martin is alive and well!), and keep the formula or genre that works well or what they invented in the first place. Of course then the chance they take is developing a show like Everybody Loves Raymond - same old, same old plot - each week. But at least when you tune into that show you'll know Debra's a witch, Ray's a doufus, Robert's the jealous brother, Marie's the interfering Mother-in-law and Frank could give a c*ap!!! LOL

TV.....grrrr, we can't live without it but maybe we should at times turn the darn thing off? :-)

Well, ya know...the 10th annual TV Turn-off week is April 19-25. :)

WHY they choose to do it so close to or during season and series finales is beyond me!

Okay, time to get creative again. :slime:

Here's the deal -- Marlena is innocent. But Hattie, her evil twin :double: is back and she's doing all the dirty work.

Hattie has been brainwashed by the leader of a doomsday cult. :notworthy:

This cult believes that they will be transported up to Heaven if they carry out their mission. :1:

Their mission (as clouded by their mentally deranged view) is:
to participate in the Holy War :shoot:

and wreak havoc among both sides :yesno:

thereby, causing the evil to fight with the evil and the good to be divided amonst themselves :firedevil:

Their main goal is to guarantee that the end of the world comes and they'll do whatever it takes to be sure that happens :blowup:

Marlena finds out and takes it upon herself to destroy this mentally unstable cult, its leader, and all its followers, including Hattie :yayaya:

God is on Marlena's side and helps destroy their church after she defeats the cult :lightning:

Then Marlena and John live happily ever after in good ole Salem, USA :flag:

...until the next evil Days villian comes along. :grrr:

:wink:

LOL @ Sami Brady!!

I went home for lunch today and scanned through my recording of yesterday's DOOL (which I recorded because the episode description said that John would reveal his suspect to everyone).

I didn't get to watch it all, due to time restraints. But I fast-forwarded and caught a couple of quick scenes with "Hattie." It was funny because everyone was saying stuff like "How can Marlena be here when she's supposed to be lying in a hospital bed recuperating?" and "John, what are you trying to pull?" Then Sami steps up and says something to the effect of "This is my namesake. This is my mom's twin...her evil twin, Samantha."

First off, who *really* refers to someone as someone else's "evil" twin when they're in character? That just sounded so un-soapish to have a character actually say that! "Murderous twin," "psycho twin," or something like that, maybe. :) I had to laugh.

Anyway, Hattie corrected Sami and let her know that she is not Samantha, she is Hattie. And then everyone tried to understand what was going on, which confused me further so I didn't try to make heads or tails out of it yet. I'll just read a full synopsis when it's available and get it all straight the first time.

I must admit, it was fun to see Deidre Hall out of her prim-and-proper "Marlena" mode and instead being somewhat comical and white-trashy. Maybe she's working towards a daytime Emmy by offering a change of pace for her character(s)?

And to think, a blond in black leather on daytime TV? Call the FCC...and remind me to record more often! :lol:

Seriously though -- Sami's the cute one on DOOL, IMO.

You mean you don't like Nicole? :lol:

Did you see Julie and Bonnie go at it? ;)

Deidre Hall was hilarious as Hattie. Did you see the part with the donuts spewed on Sami and the gum on Bo? :lol: It was great.
