Bad to the Bo

Nothing like a do-gooder turned bad to shake things up a little. On "Days of our Lives," squeaky clean Bo Brady (Peter Reckell) has a meaty moral dilemma on his hands. And boy, is it a doozy!
Bo was raised by Shawn (Frank Parker) and Caroline Brady (Peggy McCay) to be a good, respectful lad. But later in life, he found out his real father was Victor Kiriakis (John Aniston), whose simmering dark side tended to erupt when provoked -- and it was provoked often.
Still, Bo never really accepted his Kiriakis roots. He may have Victor's temper on occasion, but essentially he's a good guy -- he's even a cop! Sure, there was that whole Billie Reed thing -- but really, he thought Hope was dead. Could've happened to anyone.
Basically: Bo was a Brady through and through. Until now.
Victor has once again suffered a stroke -- and this time, he may not survive. Bo has stumbled upon some evidence that may incriminate his baby bro (all right, half-brother, but still ... ) Philip Kiriakis (Jay Kenneth Johnson). An ailing Victor asks him to do the unthinkable: cover for his brother. And while this goes against everything Bo knows is right, as a cop and as a human being, blood is blood -- especially when you grow up a Brady. Even if it means venturing to the dark side.
Gasp! We know, right? At the end of the day though, moral dilemma shmoral dilemma: Baddie Bo is HOT.
What do you think of the "new" Bo?

I have been watching Days since it started. I am now 49. It is the best soap out there. I love what they have done with Peter Reckell's character.

You go Bo. I think this will be Bo's brightest time to shine. It's good to see good guys go bad. I hope he becomes the next Victor.

I think Bo will do the right thing. SPD will look at Bo in a different light, while Bo proves Phillip did not harm Hollingworth, although tape evidence destroyed by Kate, where Phillip threatens to kill Hollingsworth if he does not do want he (Phillip) says. My theory is that Hollingsworth met is dorm from a conversation with John (not knowingly) and Eva Vitali's henchman cousin Angelo. Bo won't stay on the dark side for long, he was raised by Shawn and Caroline Brady!
