lmao! Actually, I think this capture card has that ability.

I bought a 32"LCD HD TV 3 years ago for Lumi's wedding. If they kill off Elvis I'll buy a 60" LED one.

Thanks so much for clips, Norma. Loved seeing Marie, especially in her flashback. She was a real knockout! I'm loving seeing the trademark of Days past - it's all about the characters, baby. I got more depth from that one tiny clip between Marie and Alice than I've seen between all of the current characters put together in the last month.

Oh, and Rapist + Castration = Sep987HappyDancing!

I loved the shot of Tom's medical bag when Nathan got the news. Very understated-but-eloquent.

*sniffle*

Thanks for clipping.
That was a great decision by whoever wrote/directed it that way.

But I did think the way Maggie told Nathan that Alice's reaction to him would establish whether she lived or died was... odd. Nathan is a nice character played by a nice actor, but he's been around for about a year and has never been seen with Alice onscreen. It's hard to buy that Alice would somehow react more strongly to him than to one of the returning characters... or one of the characters she's been close to on screen for many decades... or even Will, if they absolutely had to go with a young adult great-grandson.
Do you remember what she told him? She took her lover’s hand, and she said, “just because something is intangible doesn't mean that it's not real.” Lucas, no matter what happens, no matter what we’ve been through, no matter what I say, you will always be in my heart. -- Sami Brady, November 2007

Urgh, Hope is still on my nerves. At least she put on her big girl panties and admitted to Jennifer that SHE was the one who wanted the divorce.

I hated Maggie telling Bo to put Hope first. When has Bo needed to be told that? Hope has always been first, second, third, and fourth and that relationship. Hope moved out. Hope took Ciara away. Hope lambasted Bo for not following his visions and then dumped him when he did... and saved Ciara's life in the process.

Sorry, not buying Bo as the big bad cheater.

Agreed, but it could have been worse Hilary. It could have been Melanie.

Well, yes. From a history-of-the-show point of view, there are many Hortons who would have more claim to that position than Nathan. If anyone else had said that to him, I would've been annoyed. If we hadn't known a bunch of vets would be coming back to say their own goodbyes to Alice, I would've been seriously annoyed that this was what we got. But.

But this is Maggie talking to her grandson. Maggie, who just lost her husband and is about to lose the mother-in-law she's been close to for decades, talking to her grandson Nathan, who just lost his grandfather and is about to lose his great-grandmother. It didn't seem out of place to me that she would say something to try to remind him that Gram loved him, or that she might be less than perfect in how she phrased it. So I saw it as grandmotherly rather than the show trying to tell us nobody matters as much as Nathan.

(It's sort of like Lucas getting a moment at Tom's funeral, way back when.)

Or of passion and heat

Clips are up. Jennifer & Sami having a civil conversation tells me we're still in Bizarro world.
DIE RAPIST DIE! You have no business being in Alice Horton's house, and you know it.

I wouldn't say I found it annoying (of course Nathan should have his moments in the story), just strange.

Sure, Maggie would and should remind Nathan that Alice loves him and make sure that Nathan gets his time with Alice toward the end. But the phrasing did strike me as un-Maggie, since she loves Nathan but also loves Nick, Lucas, etc., so intensely. Even as stressed out as Maggie was, it's unlike her to assure Nathan by impliedly cheapening Alice's love for her other grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

What it reminded me of was how, in preparation for a Shelle wedding, Caroline told Shawn-D that he was her favorite of her grandchildren. (Not as severe, but still weird for the character.)

I thought the scenes were good and unfortunately the stupid rapist screws every scene up...man why the heck did he even have to be in that house, he could have left her there you know....also I loved the way everyone at the Horton house ignored him, it was perfect! I am dying to see the interaction in the coming days with Bill and Kate now that Bill and Laura have arrived. I'm hoping they make the decision to keep them even if it's on recurring and then bring Lucas back....give them a story....they haven't had one, it's only fair that they explore the missing bond between father and son....he hasn't been part of Lucas life for so long, so maybe we can see that if the writers take their heads out of their butts.

Laura, you always did have a way of making me root for Kate, bless your heart.

So do we call them Bate? Or Kill? (Either name makes me smile). I want more Bill & Kate and I want their son back in town, to stay.

June 16th clips are up. The previews for the 17th actually look pretty good too.

Thanks Norma! I loved seeing Laura again, and her snarkiness with Kate, classic Days. God it makes me miss the real Days.

June 10th clips are now posted! I love seeing Jennifer again.
Hip-hip-hoorah for Norma. OK everyone remember Norma has to come out of pocket for the website. Maybe we can pitch in a little cash for all her efforts. It is the least we can do.

Loved today's Julie/Sami scenes. The Rafe pimping was minimal and Julie didn't hold back from bashing Elvis :) The only thing I would change is that I would have made Julie remind Sami that the love she's looking for she already had, with Lucas. Elvis is definitely being set up for a huge fall. Sami emphasized what a good father he is and the camera panned to little Sydney. He's gonna die. (666)

June 17th clips are up.

Downloading and going to watch the last 3 eppys now... really appreciate you doing the clips, Norma!

ETA: Just watched them, and may I say if I could vote for the Couple Of The Week it would be Julie and Sami, hands down!!!

I (h) (h) (h) their relationship, want to see it on my screen all the time.

Thanks again Norma.

Question: in one of the clips from this week, is it my imagination or did I hear Jennifer say that Jack "will be here soon"????

Yes, she did... probably he'll have a problem with his flight and "unexpectedly" not be able to get in.

True. I hope it's foreboding his arrival eventually though.
