DAYS: January 2026 Discussion Thread
Oh, I agree. Deidre was quite a revelation to me when I watched her early material. I was more I heart you Marlena/John 4 ever before I saw some of her best work. I will never disparage my OG love of J/M, but I find a lot of Don/Marlena and Roman/Marlena very satisfying. I think her finding out Sam was murdered is very good as well. Wayne was a great acting partner for her. Marlena wasn't just a perfect heroine. She had depth. DJ dying was a little histrionic to me, but IIRC Maggie is the one that comforts her first. So we are full circle on the Dee/Suzanne story now.

Okay fair enough. Wes probably filmed his Days scenes 7 years ago and filmed his GH scenes last week when he was dropping Laura off in the parking lot. 😂 Considering how reviled he seems to be it's crazy he books multiple jobs. @DRW50 I do remember some Wes/MZ comparisons in his GL days.....which boggles my mind a bit. Anyhow, I didn't think a one day Peter cameo was terrible. I was warned beforehand it was happening so I guess I expected worse. Britt being the most annoying human on the planet everyday probably helps everyone's cause.

Hear me out everyone-if you want lol. I think Peter/Wes Ramsey were used effectively today. I don't think this story should exist at all, but it did have a creepiness to it that worked. WR seems like a pretentious tool and Peter went on for years too long, but I don't think he's a bad actor. He's gonna show up as Stephanie stalker on days in a week or so anyhow.

I feel like it's two different things. Suzanne and Deidre were good friends for years. Something happened and it was very personal. They shouldn't act like 18 year olds though. Deidre not liking the actor that played her rapist is a very small choice. Idk if I can find more about Bill Joyce/Kellam, but I think he had some addiction issues and the actual rape scenes were quite violent. And it made Marlena look dumb in a sense. Not victim blaming her, but he was practically a walking red flag that everyone warned her against. Idk if you can still find it on you tube. Then Marlena has the weird sort of interlude testing romance with Josh Fallon that always surprises me in rewatch lol

I don't why the show is averse to making things make sense. Emma said Robin wasn't concerned about Anna at all. Okay, not like shenanigans didn't keep you apart from your parents for years and years. But now Robin/Patrick are all it's fine. Say Robin is concerned but not concerned enough to call the cops-yet. Not living in lala land where everything is obviously fine.

I would disagree. I think it was more of an ensemble, but Marlena was a key player. Hope/Bo and Steve/Kayla had a bunch of absences, leaves, bad stories while I think Marlena and John/Roman kept things moving even with Deidre leaving for 5 years. Plus, she and John (and Kristen) get credit for most everything in the 90's where Patch and Kayla were gone and JER hated Bo/Hope. But everyone has a different take and I prefer Marlena to pretty much any other heroine not named Brenda.
