Participanthappened too quickly, IMO. It was obvious that Jen still had feelings for Jack, and that she was angry and lonely, which made her extremely vulnerable; but, still very much in love with Jack. Daniel knew that from the start, but he still went after her, even though he was still supposedly pining away for Chloe. To me, you just don’t go after somebody who is still in love with their ex, and yet that’s exactly what Daniel did. He may be taking his anger out on Jack now that he’s back and should realize when he told Jack the other day, "I love Jennifer and ‘Jennifer loves me’," that, in all probability, that’s just not going to be the case. The best thing for BOTH of these guys would be to back off and let Jennifer weigh the situation herself. Clearly, she is confused and conflicted by Jack’s return; but, if she truly loved Daniel, and ONLY Daniel, she would tell Jack to solve his own problems with Abigail and not to involve her. Remember, she came across Jack yesterday and decided to "go someplace and talk". I don’t think Jack had any expectations of that. That told me that she is having second thoughts where Daniel is concerned.

ParticipantJack is still Jack in more ways than not, but it was obvious to me that Jennifer is still in love with him and that she’s battling her inner demons where his actions are concerned. I have no doubt they will reunite at some point; I just hope it’s not too soon. He needs time to let his actions sink in where his family’s lost love for him is concerned, and if Jen takes him back too quickly, he will never his realize his mistakes, nor will he learn from them. Daniel, I’m afraid, will be the one to get hurt the most from this.

ParticipantI’m just happy to have them back, and I attribute John’s weaker voice to his illness and the rest to a matter as simple as the ageing process. He’s still a handsome devil in my book. I love watching how deeply they are in love with one another. They couldn’t be sweeter. Yeah, he opens his mouth a little wide when he kisses her, but I would rather watch them kiss than say, for example, Kate and Daniel or Kate and E.J. or Kate and anybody. John and Marlena are more believable to me now than they have ever been.

ParticipantI know …. it happened to me. It’s hard to be away from the work force for several years, only to return after having children. I can remember back to when my kids were young and I had to get them up early for school, rushing them to get dressed while I fixed their breakfast, then saw to it that they brushed, combed or whatever, checked they had lunch or lunch money, and saw them off to school, which was close to our house, and then getting myself ready for work. I was worn out before I even got there, and by the time I got home, I was completely exhausted. I learned very quickly how to use a crock-pot so meals could be ready without too much helter-skelter. Fortunately, my boys and my husband learned quickly as well how to get dinner on the table, while I took a "time-out" to unwind. Those were the days!

Participantshe certainly didn’t deserve to because of one dance. I agree, Bonbon, I think I feel worse for Tony than I do for Chynna. I did suspect Chaz Bono would be saved, but I felt strongly that it would be Nancy or Carson who would be going home. Just goes to show ya’ – it’s not always what you know, but who you know – and, for sure, it IS always better to be lucky than good! Too bad!

Participantis why is John getting these flashbacks where is is going over statements and sitting at a laptop evidently working with them? Also, I read these flashbacks take place in Paris, when most thought he was in Switzerland. Who else is in on this? I still feel John is innocent, and that Carrie will prove it. I just hope it doesn’t take down Carrie and Austin’s marriage doing it. Hey, who knows, maybe Austin will wind up turning the tables on this. I’m so excited for this to go to trial next month, if there’s going to be a trial, that is. I would love to see a good legal trial in action.
Some people are already suspecting that if this is really going to happen, that Neil Curtis will be the father. I know Maggie had serious problems back then; more than I can unravel right now; but yes, she was also involved with Don Craig. In any case, just the anticipation of this story line alone is driving me crazy, but in a very good way.

ParticipantAlice’s image is that it would appear, if the story is true, that Alice was deceiving her family by not informing them of something so astoundingly unbelievable as to withhold information from a loved one (and Alice did so love Maggie) that would entail them having a child and not telling them. Most feel Alice would never do that. But there’s going to be a rather large can of worms opened here, and that’s what a good umbrella story does — affects the lives of many. I couldn’t agree more about Melanie; she adores Maggie and vice-versa; and I thought she looked beautiful yesterday in that dress, plus I love her hair. Cutting her bangs was the way to go with her hairstyle. I just wish she was a better actress. I still can’t compare Molly Burton’s acting to say someone like Kate Mansi, but I suppose she’ll get there. She still has too many facial and finger quirks that are distracting from her appearance. Personally, I think the story will go over in a big way, if they can write it in a believable way and not silly. Maybe Melissa could have had a twin and Maggie thought he was dead, but he was taken by someone from her past (just speculating). Now, who was in her past that might do such a thing? I just think I love the idea of Maggie being Melanie’s granddaughter more than anything else.

Participantwould run into her appearance on Dirty Soaps; all that was mentioned by the show was that she had an undisclosed illness and would be replaced by another actress until further notice. I just think the girl is stressed out — she seems to be facing a lot of family problems, as well as non-family matters, plus filming two shows simultaneously, and it’s just worn her out. As for her appearance, Kirsten Storms has a beautiful face, but her body is what looks bad. She’s a toothpick, and even though she is small-framed, you can definitely see she is losing weight. I just hope it’s stress-related and nothing more.

ParticipantAbbey looked like she had no top on and Chad was straddled over her with his hands on her back. For all Jack knew, she was being held down. His reaction may have been a little impatient, but understanding, to me at least. I know Jack wasn’t always a good guy, but when it’s your own child, well — that’s a horse of a different color to me. I felt he did exactly what any father would in that situation. The rest of the scene was OTT, I’ll agree; however, I thought that Abbey was doing just fine putting Jack in his place; there was no need for Chad to chime in and demand that Jack leave as well. I do like Abbey with Chad, but, like Daniel, Chad needs to let Abbey solve this; otherwise, she may wind up resenting him (Chad) for it later. By the way, Kate Mansi is a wonderful young actress. I love her in the role of Abigail Devereaux, even more than Ashley Benson. She is so convincing, especially now with the mixed emotions she is feeling where Jack is concerned. I just can’t stop bragging about DOOL, and boy does that feel good.

Participanthow are they going to keep Daniel on the canvas. This would certainly do it.

Participantthey will calm him down to a point where I can say I love them again. Right now, I’m kind of torn as to whether I want them back together again. Jack needs to grow up and start acting like a normal father and husband, and normal fathers and husbands do not do what Jack did to his family. He needs to realize what his antics cost his family, and what they may cost him if Jen and Abbey decide enoug is enough, but, honestly, I think they have too much history together and it’s obvious they all truly love one another. What I don’t want is for Jack to just skate on by with this and think it iis something he can continue doing to his family whenever he gets the "itch."
Patti
Participantshe is certainly dressing a lot nicer, and I thought her and Carrie looked beautiful on yesterday’s show.
Patti
ParticipantI also liked the one the other day from Nicole when she asked Kate: "Shouldn’t you be sunning yourself on a rock smoewhere?"
