Days of Our Lives: May 2022 Discussion Thread
Only DAYS would have a character pass out due to poisoning on a Tuesday, then not follow up on it until Friday. Who's idea was it to have Sonny passed out on the floor for 3 days? They need to change the pacing so that 1 day in Salem isn't stretched out over a week. It should be 1 -2 episodes max unless it's a big event like a wedding.

EastEnders: Discussion Thread
I used to be a "Ballum" fan and Callum is still one of my favorites, but they've totally destroyed Ben as a character. At this point, I think I've moved past hate to pure apathy towards him. This rape story reeks of desperation to force the viewers to having sympathy for Ben. It's not going to work. I don't know if I'd recast, but Max Bowden's acting has gone down hill a lot. I haven't impressed with his acting in at least 18 months and he's delivered some very cringeworthy performances. Some of that I think is down to him hating the writing for Ben as much as we do. Ben does need a long break off screen. Like 6 months to a year at least. Overall, I'm not finding the show that great. It's mildly improved compared to when Sen was in charge, but there really isn't any story that interests me. I'm curious what Chris Clenshaw is going to do. His material hasn't started yet and still no interviews or anything to signal what his vision or plans for the show might be.

Days Promo (4/22/22)
Zach Tinker was the SOD podcast episode that came out today. He said DAYS originally signed him to a 3 month contract, then they extended it. It is possible they have upped his guarantee after that 3 months. Also I remember when Zach was promoting Beyond Salem, he mentioned having a few upcoming projects in the works, that didn't sound DAYS related. Just taking a guess, but if he already had some prior commitments when asked to the mothership, that could explain why his airtime is sporadic.

I wonder if Zach Tinker wasn't available to film and that's why we got the quick throw away line from Chad that Sonny got a work call. It makes NO sense Sonny wouldn't have been there. The best part of the episode was when Leo says looks at all these angry judgmental faces and the camera immediately cuts to Missy Reeves. I almost died of laughter. 🤣

ARTICLE: Peacock Orders Second Chapter of ‘Days of our Lives: Beyond Salem,’ Kristian Alfonso and Peter Reckell to Reprise Roles
I suspected some sort of Peacock special was on its way due to the most recent casting calls. Very happy to see we are getting more Beyond Salem. The inevitability that Bo and Hope are probably going to share most of their screen time with Ben and Ciara kills that excitement of their return. I assume that more cast will be announced later. Will and Sonny were one the most popular parts of the last one. You would think they'd try to have them involved in some way again.

Zach did post on Twitter or Instagram (can't remember which) not long ago that the stache's days are numbered. Given how far DAYS tapes ahead, we won't see it reflected on the screen for a long while.

Days of Our Lives: April 2022 Discussion Thread
I'm glad Chad called out Sonny on how over obsessive he's being and he should focus more on Will. I get all things Leo did to Sonny, but I'm assuming there's something else behind this new found obsessive behavior. This was the second time now that Sonny was grossed out by Chad and Abby kissing. Then that joke from Abby about "Don't have a three-way." More and more I'm convinced they are going to hook up Sonny and Chad down the road. I know this is never going to happen for real, but oh do I love me some Leo and Xander!

Those Sonny and Chad scenes, these two are SO hooking up some point down the line.

I enjoyed the Sonny and Victor scenes.. Everything else was garbage except for seeing Brandon Barash shirtless.

DOOL: Spoilers, 18-22 April
If they do that nonsense, then I hope it's Leo and Xander that end up accidentally married. They actually some sexual chemistry.

DOOL: Spoilers, 11-15 April
I wonder if Victor's offer is Sonny running Titan again? I've always liked the idea of the show exploring Sonny ruthless businessman side, the problem as always been it's execution. Freddie was terrible in the business stories. Hopefully Zach Tinker is better. Hopefully we get some follow-up to why Sonny is so obsessed with taking down Leo and his reaction to the plan blowing up. Very strange to have virtually no follow up on that for 2 weeks.

He should invite on Zach Tinker. Now THAT would be a podcast episode I'd watch.

That pornstache getting chopped off is the best news of the week!! If he wants to have some facial hair, it should be more like this: That's a hot look for Zach.

EastEnders: Discussion Thread
While I do feel that there is some improvement, I don't think it's improved as much as others feel it has. I think the Gray Story and Jon Sen were both so hated, that both leaving at the same time, caused a bit of a "placebo effect". It would be almost impossible for it to not look better. I'm still reserving judgment until Chris's name starts to appear in the credits.

Where the hell did Sonny go? He was still at the Dimera Mansion on Friday. It seems weird he'd take off, especially after how angry and obsessed he was.

If that's the route they are going (and it's hard to know for sure after just 1 episode), I wouldn't be against it in theory. We saw in Beyond Salem, Sonny thought Will was cheating, Leo came back in his life, which made him even further upset. There's all the stuff with Adrienne and Bonnie... Then if Will's gone half the time (due to Chandler's schedule). I feel it would make sense if written well. Acting wise, Zach would do a great job.

Nope. Sonny told Chad he dropped Will and Ari off at the airport. Wil's flying back to Arizona. While too early to know for sure. Part of me wonders if an alcoholism story is in the cards for Sonny. Chad mentioned Sonny poured the drinks strong and they kept cutting to Sonny with a drink in his hand.

The episode's not over and I can already hear the MAGA outrage after that scene of Sonny acting a bit disgusted at the sight of Chad and Abby kissing. Karen4Trump: Sonny hates straight people! Ron won't let the heteros kiss!

I'll take this over the other crappy stories. This actually sounds like it could be entertaining.

Days of Our Lives: March 2022 Discussion Thread
Oh I know he's been flying in to film scenes since September. I also remember being told, him being on recurring wouldn't be obvious on screen. Will's been back 2 weeks and the show is already writing excuses for Will's absence.

So today Kate told Gabi that Will flew back to Arizona with Ari. Will isn't going to stick around to see this plan blow up? Convinces Chad to go along with the plan, gives Sonny a good plowing, then just peaces out. How nice of him. LOL

The Chad, Sonny and Will stuff was the best part of today's episode. First off, Zach did a great job with the material today. Those tears... Actually all three actors did well. Chad works so much better when he's around Sonny and Will. I can get on board with Sonny and Will doing this out of revenge. That is something that makes sense enough for me. Will is still Sami Brady's son and I always felt Sonny could have a vengeful/ruthless side. Which I feel DAYS did try to do for a bit when Freddie was in the role and fighting with Brady over Titan, but it mostly just failed. Now we actually have a capable actor in the role, they might have better success this time.
