By the sound of this, looks like this monthjs-long storyline indeed have a very satisfying pay-off. I’ll catch up on this over the weekend to see it for myself.

Finally see that the actress CAN act. Before this she was so blah I wanted her gone.

I’ve loved every second of the past few DAYS!

Who knew the girl could act?? As you stated they finally gave her something that shows why they hired her–before now she was exciting as vanilla ice cream. Her scene confronting JJ at the birthday party was the best thing I’ve seen on Days in months–other than Kristen falling out the window— and her performance was a big part of it.

Now that she is on the outs with Eve, I would love for them to bring her father into the mix– who is he? what effect would his presence have on Eve and Paige?

Maybe the show has been so dull for so long that any type of action gets me excited about what’s next, but it does seem Days is turning a corner, and hopefully is heading back up there again.

To think ,Paige shared her first time experience with a man who slept with her mother,Smh. I honestly do not know how she can forgive him. I can see her forgiven Eve first because Eve is a truly damaged person, who has never made peace with her past and insecurities. I have a feeling things will get worse before they even start to get better.

Really terrific scenes. True O’Brien did a great job showing the rage, hurt, betrayal and disgust Paige feels toward Eve and JJ. When she embraced Eve and said “I know what you did.”, I cheered. It’s about time she really knew her so called mother. I feel she held her own with a pro like Kassie. As always, Kassie DePaiva was wonderful. Everyone in Salem had better watch out. Eve is completely broken and has nothing left to lose. I think she’ll raise even more hell all over town. The look on JJ’s face broke my heart. He is a sweet but pitiful little fellow. He was in way over his head trying to deal the that man-eater Eve. Bravo to everyone for great work.

loved it!!!!
especially when a still shaking paige showed up at the horton home while everyone greeted her at the door cheering and she was a mess! True really showed finally some acting chops!
i think jj and paige are so sweet together , however i enjoy when jj goes dark! casey s awesome at being bad!

Wow!!! What a performance. Sweet, even-tempered Paige, finally showed the stuff of which she is made.
I believe that this is a very pivotal point in her life. The hurt she is experiencing may make her stronger, a good thing, yes. But, by the same token, this experience may deeply affect her….so much so as to paint a very dark picture of her world and the people in it……a very negative and bitter result! She may never trust anyone again. She is very young and impressionable. We have all had our hearts bruised. The very dramatic crux of this storyline is the fact that it was Paige’s mother who has inflicted the pain, coupled with JJ’s betrayal.
Justice….small word on its own. But, man, oh, man…..I am so glad, I am doing a happy dance.
Can’t stand JJ, his goody-two-shoes sister, and his sanctimonious mother.

Chad, do yourself a favor…RUN!!!!! You’re so hot, why get stuck with fish-lips and Elsie-the-cow-eyes?
Seriously, Billy Flynn is the best thing that has happened to DOOL for a long time. He is such a superlative actor…such presence. I love brooding actors….not forlorn idiots, such as Brady.
I just get lost in Chad’s eyes…sigh!

I have to say that this pay off was great. Casey Moss and Kassie DePaiva flew off into greater heights as this all exploded around them. True O’Brien did better than I expected. Her range is so limited. She is not great at this role at all but she did convey the hurt and betrayal better than expected. This made watching DAYS worth it. The rest of the show is in shambles. Please please please stop the boredom with the Serena story. Xander looks like a porn star waiting to be fluffed and giving Arianne Zucker so little to do is a crime. The Melanie fiasco is only helped knowing that she is leaving the show soon. But Brady and Theresa do not a couple make. I love Theresa as a character. She gives much needed comedic relief. The rest of the show is just boring. Nothing and I mean nothing is going on. While I have loved the Paul/Sonny/Will triangle, knowing that Sonny is leaving (Freddie Smith) makes it all pointless. The stupid Clyde storyline. The evil country bumpkin, please….Billy Clyde Tuggle did it better on All My Children way back in the day. If this show doesn’t pick up it’s pace and switch up the quality it is doomed for cancellation as soon as they blow out the candles on their 50th Anniversary.

True was a revelation, frankly. It has become quite clear the last two days that she has been sorely misused.

DAYS does this slow-burn thing so well. Plot is tired and true soap but this time it really was engaging. Delicious. DAYS still follows an old-school groove I appreciate. Glad DAYS welcomed me after our time in Oakdale, Llanview, and Pine Valley came to an end. I ask, “Where have I been?” but so glad I found Salem.

The climax to this drawn-out story was well worth the wait. All the actors did a great job. True O’Brien was outstanding, soaring to new acting heights.

Call me a villain, if you will, but I actually enjoyed JJ with Eve and was always on the lookout for “the next time.” In part, I feel this way because, to me, the actors have more chemistry.

Nevertheless, Paige has every reason to be vengeful against her mother and boyfriend. Let the fireworks continue…

As good as these scenes are, I’m still not a fan of True O’Brien as Paige. She has a very limited acting range, and even though she rose to the occasion with these scenes, I think they need to seriously consider recasting the role if they intend to go on a “dark-side” story run with Paige. Also, I’m not a huge fan of Casey Moss as J.J., but I LOVE Kassie DePaiva! She plays Eve so well. I just wish Billy Warlock could return as Frankie! What a blast that would be.

I’m glad I’m not the only one to notice (and acknowledge) True’s great performance. I wasn’t expecting great things but she blew me out of the water! I normally watch episodes as background noise on my IPad when I cook, but I had to stop, pause and rewind on several occasions just to see it again. She was totally believable and seemed to really give it all she had. Very, very impressed!

And the writing was spotless. Exactly what you’d want from a reveal out of a story that has been building for 6 months. Everything came together and worked.

Really great job!

She reminds me of a young Genie Francis (showing my age here). Best soap opera action I’ve seen in a very long time!! Well done, writers and actors.

I guess I’m the only one that’s not impressed by True’s performance. To me she seemed stiff and her facial expression never changed. I’m not saying she needs to leave, I’m just saying she needs to grow on me some more. I’m use to veteran performances where actors use their hands and arms to express what’s going on in the moment. The actor who plays Brady is a perfect examples of someone who plays his part realistically.

Emmy nods for both True and Kassie. Great job by ensemble cast. Bravo all around.
