Feels like things are moving fast but apparently not? Ugh. This baby switch is painful to watch. I really wish they hadn't done this.

The previews always seem like the week will be an exciting one but I don’t think much will happen in the interim of the writers strike. Other than EJ and Nicole, I really don’t have any other couple that I’m rooting for. I really like Eric and Sloane, but I can’t imagine it will last once the truth comes out.

I really like them too but yes, not sure how this will play out. Maybe Eric will understand but I doubt it.
The scenes with Eric and Nicole at the hospital were wild - Nicole was all manic and when Eric said he didn't believe the baby was hers that was crazy. I wonder how the results will be forged or who changed them. I am certain that the envelope is going to say the DNA does not match.

I’ve never seen security at hospitals and police departments nonexistent as they are in Salem. I get that this is a soap opera but the writers really come up with some really stupid stuff and think that the audience is just as dumb.
At least there’s still some stuff grabbing my attention. I still enjoy it a lot more since before Covid and Peacock. I think they did really well with casting Holly and Tate. They’re not in an interesting story yet but they definitely have potential.
Also, I’m not a great fan of Robert Scott Wilson, but his Konstantin impression was so funny and spot on.

I really loathe Konstantin. When is he leaving? The actor playing him is a long-time Canadian character actor. I feel like he has played bad guys before and that might be why I am clouded in my dislike of him but I really cannot believe that a) Maggie believes anything he says and b) Steve and John care about Maggie so much to investigate him.
I remember vividly for years when Maggie had Chez Rouge John would sneer at her and hated her because she was gossipy and didn't like Marlena's friendship with her lol
I must have missed RSW's impression. I FF a lot of his scene. His face grossed me out when he was kissing Theresa on the couch.
Also, Stephanie sucks. I don't necessarily agree with Chad's actions but she still sucks.

I can't get over Konstantin's horrible fake Greek accent. Maybe that's why he bothers you too, Leafs.
I feel like Holly could be an interesting character if they stopped making her be in love with Johnny. I know she and Johnny are not related, but she should come to terms with the fact that he's not into her.
I have a feeling that the baby switch storyline is going to continue for awhile, but I'm really looking forward to seeing Sloan's downfall. I just never got into her character.

Yeah the fake accent is NOT helping at all!
I like Holly I think they did a good job casting her, she seems pretty natural. I actually think the way Carson is playing Johnny in the scenes with Holly is great. He treats her like a kid and she is trying to act all grown up. They are all doing a good job but I don't really care about her crush either.
I really like Sloan. I wish they hadn't gone this route. At one time I was all over Eric and Nicole being together but now I much prefer her with EJ. Dan's EJ makes me actually like the character. I think he is doing such a fantastic job. Sloan makes Eric a little less boring and they are hot together. Nicole was such a dull bore with Eric.

She’s not a one note bitch like Melinda. You can tell she’s actually questioning her own decisions. When Roman complimented her the other day, you could actually see what an impact that had on her. She’s actually a lot like Nicole was in her earlier days.

I noticed the Roman compliment thing too. I agree I think she is really great. Definitely intentional with her actions. Even when she is lying it's on the fly and you can see her working it out as she goes along and then she just makes it so believable.
Sadly Eric is so self-righteous I don't think he will forgive her.
Although he sure did forgive Nicole for all the horrific things she did to his sister so I don't know.
I just really love Nicole and EJ together. I would prefer they stay a couple.

At least I think we will see them as status quo for the next few months since the writers strike. But I hope that the writers have seen what the fans see. Eric and Nicole seemed like endgame but introducing Dan as EJ really put the spark back in their relationship and made Nicole so much more interesting again. I just don’t see a happy ending for Eric and Nicole anymore. I think their friendship has far more chemistry than their romance. And, Sloan coming along and getting involved with Eric was the nail in the coffin for Ericole for me.
