The first of Tamara’s return to DAYS OF OUR LIVES in her Emmy winning role of AVA VITALI. I love Tamara’s scenes so far with her old GENERAL HOSPITAL partner in crime, Steve Burton (Jason Morgan) here playing the part of Harris Michales. I don’t know whether it’s because of their comfort with each other given their history on GH as Carly and Jason, but the chemistry is off the charts. Welcome back Tamara, and nice to see you again Steve.

So going forward: I know I slacked off during Tamara’s last run as Ava. For me it was the fact they were pigeon-holing her into just “Crazy Ava,” and not actually writing for her. I still remember where she was in August of 2008 when Ava left Salem, and I hate it when they don’t write a consistent character. Also making her responsible for beloved characters’ deaths is not something I really want to see. I know it’s part and parcel of the soap genre, but when it’s a deliberate thing to deliberately write her into a corner, I check out. Also the device I used to capture stopped working and my ability to get daily episodes disappeared. I have a new way of recording now, and screencapping is a bit easier now. As long as Tamara’s story is good and it doesn’t become overwhelming again, I will be sticking with it. Also to note, screencaps are now in ultra hd, that means the clip is also in UHD. So that’s a plus.

Now onto the clips: I know the media section is not displaying or working right. I’m in the process of investigating why. Until that time instead of posting acreencaps from each episode with a link to the video, I’ll just be posting the video…for now. I will let you know when the media section is fixed and you can begin watching videos again. My apologies for the inconvenience.
