Melanie and Daniel Monday (Read 391 times)

I was surprised by how much I liked the scenes at the Cheatin Heart. I loved Daniel sounding like he was going to curse and then saying some other word, like that's a load of shaving cream, or what a firecracker.

I like that they mentioned Chloe and Philip and aren't pretending that those people were never part of their lives. But what I liked most is that they were having a really serious discussion but in a less than dramatic way.

Thoughts?

I liked it but it kind of bothered me the way that Melanie and Daniel were hanging on each other like two lovebirds and not father and daughter. I love my Dad but I do not go around with my arm around him all the time.

I guess if I'd (more or less) just met him, I'd act the same way. But I liked the scenes. I felt like they accomplished something without it having to be a heavy conversation. Plus, I don't see Melanie as the serious conversation type of gal.

I liked that for once it felt like a mature conversation between the two of them. I was thinking it how hard it would be to come into your child's (or father's) life so late in the game and how difficult it would be to find the boundaries and the level of maturity the relationship would normally be at if they had been around each other this whole time.

And I too liked Daniel's attempts to curb the cursing. Also, if you notice, Jennifer had a non-curse word as well when she was talking to Adrienne. It think it was 'freaking', if I heard right.

I liked it overall, but I felt Melanie was too pushy.

I also liked the shaving cream and firecracker in lieu of swearing. I might have to use them, LOL

[fluffysmom]

I liked it overall but why does Melanie suddenly want to change her name to Jonas. I guess they just don't want her to be Meanie Kiriakis anymore. I guess that should be Melanie not meanie! LOL

[sportsgirl]

She wasn't a Kiriakis very long, so I am ok with her changing it.

[fluffysmom]

She was a Kiriakis for way too long IMO. If she wants to change it I am certainly fine with that.

Really Daniel? He doesn't want to go through what he has been through with Chloe again?Maybe if that SOB had been there for Chloe when she most needd him,like he should have, nothing of all that would have happened.I hate any scene with Daniel and Melanie because they both act like poor blameless innocent vicitms when they both started all this mess,both have wrecked their respective relationships long before the ons.It was their behavior that led to all that.I hate both of them

[mikey]

I thought the writing was a lot smarter than usual. It was sort of clever and played around the actual issue for a while instead of someone just waltzing in and declaring, "Here is what I am currently feeling" and receiving advice.

Did I miss like, best episode ever or something? EVerything I see you guys are talking positively and liking it all. I HAVE to see this episode!

[jaysdelina]

I'm not much of a Daniel fan at all,but I have to say I enjoyed this scene.The "non cussing out"he did was great,lol.I too enjoyed that it wasn't too mushy,but very adult.The only problem I had with it was again with the Jack bashing.Although Mel did very well when she said "Ok then,you be the anti-Jack,you stick it out with her like he didn't"or whatever that line was.I just don't like that characters who have never even met Jack act like he's super jerk when really it wasn't like that for many years.I'm hoping Jack will come back and say "I didn't leave,this happend...".With the way the show is going lately,I'm more and more convinced this walk about thing is going to turn out to be bogus.For whatever reason,the writing seems to be turning in our favor,and the writers aren't being very subtle about showing us that,which I appreciate.

[Pallison]

Oh god, are they going to make Jack on a secret mission...?? He's out doing a job for the country, saving it from bad guys and all... And had to protect his family by disconnecting like he did....
Even if he's just acting like a jerk, walking out on his family and turning his back on them totally, especially Jennifer as it appears he is doing, I'm sure when he returns it'll be all forgotten within a few episodes and he'll be everyone's darling again.......vomit......

[extrememakeover]

Daniel isn't in position to say anything about jack. Jack wasn't there for jennifer? Daniel wasn't there for Chloe. Same disgusting behavior.Daniel had no excuse for his behavior.Let's wait and see if jack has any
