WOW! That's all I can say after catching up on a week's worth of DAYS over the weekend. How terrific was Lucas's comeback? Sure, it sounded cliché at first — Lucas returns right after Sami and EJ have sex for the first time — but Alison Sweeney, Bryan R. Dattilo and James Scott's powerful performances and the well-scripted tale made it anything but the usual soap fare. I was riveted. And I'm still on the fence about the Daniel/Chelsea romance. It's different and intriguing, but, like Daniel, I'm having trouble with the age difference. Finally, I totally enjoy Drake Hogestyn's portrayal of John. From the way he delivers his lines to the sheer glee he has on his face when he does it, you can tell he's having a ball with this "new" character. DAYS just keeps getting better and better.
