We hope at least one of these works for you! If not, let us know -- there are other sites that provide east coast streams for NBC. And if you know of other live streaming sites that work better, please post the links!

Let's get the party started, live watchers!

These gifs have nothing to do with today's show, but you know you love them anyway.

Wash! ;o;

Kaylee, I'd take you in a womanly fashion. If you swung that way.

[von-questenberg.livejournal.com]

So it's official... All My Children and One Life To Live's reboots are cancelled.

Great. Fuck. Crying.

[rhiannonhero.livejournal.com]

So weird. The streaming site is all off to the right side and stuck behind an ad, and I can't see it. :( *tries other options*

[rhiannonhero.livejournal.com]

:(

That sucks so much! I'm sorry to hear this. :( :(

[von-questenberg.livejournal.com]

It's just like... it would be easier to take if the shows had just ended months ago, instead of them dragging out hope for months. On the other hand, at least they tried? But god it hurts. And AMC left off on this huge cliffhanger instead of a good ending.

[rhiannonhero.livejournal.com]

Ugh. Well, all I can see is like 1/3 of the scene, and I can't see the rest. :( What's the dealio! Waaaahhhh.

[von-questenberg.livejournal.com]

I refuse to believe in JJ's existence until he actually shows up.

[rhiannonhero.livejournal.com]

LOL! John, you're an idiot.

[rehabbed.livejournal.com]

Is Quinn back for good now? Because DNW.

[peggin.livejournal.com]

I haven't watched AMC since the early '80s, and I've never watched OLTL, but this still makes me very sad. It seems like soap operas as a genre are dying, and I can't help but wonder how much longer Days has left.

[von-questenberg.livejournal.com]

'A choicless choice'? Eloquent, John.

[peggin.livejournal.com]

That does suck, but I'm not sure they would have necessarily gotten a better ending if they show had planned on it being an ending. ATWT's ending sucked beyond the telling of it, and it was planned that way, and the moron writers patted themselves on the back for their brilliant storytelling. :((

Everybody is saying that General Hospital is next, probably within the year.

I know that shows come and go, but soaps are still a viable genre! They're hugely popular internationally. So why are US soaps bleeding to death? I'm not enough of an expert to answer, but I'm sure as hell wondering.

[von-questenberg.livejournal.com]

The show's creator, Agnes Nixon, had a big plan for a sweet, family-driven two hour conclusion for AMC that didn't included killing the queers. :( So it would have been better.

[von-questenberg.livejournal.com]

Aww. I'm glad Abby has stopped being angry with Jack.

[peggin.livejournal.com]

Mainly because U.S. networks care more about profits than they do about viewers. If they can produce some kind of craptastic reality programing for a quarter the cost of a soap opera and only lose half their viewers, they still have more profits at the end of the day, and that's all they care about.

[von-questenberg.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's my non-expert opinion as well. It's just so damn heartbreaking.

[rehabbed.livejournal.com]

Not feeling Sonny's bangs. Has he been taking tips from Luke Snyder?

[von-questenberg.livejournal.com]

Will's hair > Sonny's hair > Chad's hair

[rhiannonhero.livejournal.com]

STILL CAN ONLY SEE 1/3 OF THE SCREEN. :( :( :( :( :(

[rhiannonhero.livejournal.com]

ICON LOVE!!!

[peggin.livejournal.com]

I don't like Sonny's hair like this, either, but I think it would have to get a lot worse before I'd start making "bad hair day Luke" comparisons!

[von-questenberg.livejournal.com]

I think these John+Brady scenes are some of the best scenes John has had since he came back.

[rhiannonhero.livejournal.com]

Oh, it's Brady. Okay, cool. I couldn't see who he was talking to this whole time.

[peggin.livejournal.com]

I've tried three times now to post you a link to a youtube video proving JJ actually exits, but for some reason it won't go through, even though other comments have posted just fine. Weird. But if you want to see a clip of Jack seeing JJ for the first time, you can search on youtube for:

Jack/Jennifer's Reunion 2004 - Part 2

JJ should be 7, but it's a soap opera, so if he ever does show up in Salem, he'll probably be closer to 15.

[von-questenberg.livejournal.com]

Aww those are sweet scenes.

[rhiannonhero.livejournal.com]

Oh, Chad's hair!! :( :( :(

I just got to see him. Stupid streaming site.

[von-questenberg.livejournal.com]

Oh for the love of god. JUST EFFING TELL HER THE SITE'S BEEN HACKED.

[rhiannonhero.livejournal.com]

LOL! IKR?

[von-questenberg.livejournal.com]

At least Kate is displaying enough brains to realize it's problematic for a pimp to run a massage parlor?

[rhiannonhero.livejournal.com]

Meh. I can't see the screen, and now I have to go work. Adios, amigos!

[von-questenberg.livejournal.com]

LOL

Who knew pimps were experts in aromatherapy? #dieQuinndie #makingnoscents #DAYS (http://twitter.com/#!/badnecklace/status/141224597667319810)

[von-questenberg.livejournal.com]

Well the rest of the week should be more exciting than this episode. Odd that John's scenes with Brady and Jack have actually been the best part of this episode.

[von-questenberg.livejournal.com]

...So the guys don't want the bad publicity for betting, but don't think it will be cause too many problems or bad publicity to just shut the site down without a reasonable explanation? Ok then. Bless their hearts.

[peggin.livejournal.com]

It's not at all surprising to me that something involving Jack would be the best part of the episode :D

[von-questenberg.livejournal.com]

LOL I was more commenting on the fact that scenes about John were so good. For me at least, Marlena is usually the best part of John's scenes. But the scenes actually included a lot of history and were character-driven, not just John angsting.

[northsnap.livejournal.com]

Wow, this website storyline is all kinds of terrible, but at least there's eye candy.

[anna-drenxavier.livejournal.com]

For real, there's NO REASON to keep it a secret! NONE!

[dalia-chan.livejournal.com]

At least it's over!!!! Now let the boys discuss things without their laptops...lol

Excited for Marlena and Will tomorrow!
