DAYS: July 2022 Discussion Thread ⌛
It would be nice to see some effort into mixing her up with some different characters. Does she have any friends?

Yeah! Sarah is bad too! I always forget about her. Sal probably left because she knows with Eli gone she's going straight to the Island of Lost Toys!

B&B July 2022 Discussion Thread
Paris is really just a poorly developed character. Plain and simple and they have no idea what to do with her because they don't know who she is. Is she the bitch? Is she the ingenue? Is she the audience avatar? She's so undefined that she's not even root worthy. If the actress brought some nuance to the portrayal we might get somewhere, but it's meh.

ALL: They Almost Became
This is why I hate when production gives the actor so much power!

I can get into a slight aging, Shawn D is a good example, they only added about 3 years. It doesn't screw up too much, if anything. The ages also work because of the ages of the parents. That's why when they aged Lily's kids on Y&R it was so jarring. Mike Horton is great example of poor aging, because now he's been in his 30s since 1985!

I'm saying Will and Philip were born the same damn year! I'm quite sure Abigail and Brady were as well. The ages get so fucked up. EJ being born two years after Will is still pretty crazy.

Hopefully we get a lot more Imani, and hopefully she gets more integrated in the cast.

DAYS is awful with ages! Don't get me started on the Will/Phillip or the Brady/Abigail nonsense.

I guess that was vague. I was referring to DAYS.

ALL: They Almost Became
Wow! Thanks for clearing that up! Jensen Buchanan sounds like a piece of work! It's no wonder she didn't last on ATWT!

Wasn't Anne Heche willing to come back to AW, but they went with Cynthia Watros instead?

How Core Families Die
Exactly, they also have the issue that a lot of keeping all the Black characters in one bubble. It limits them, when they just play Winters Roulette. Bold and the Beautiful is one of the WORST when it comes to this.

How Core Families Die
Unpopular Opinion: I don't like when soaps become too family oriented. It just becomes very incestuous at times. That's why I love characters like Nicole. She can be a romantic wildcard because she's not related to everyone. I remember around 2005 the Brady's were dating in to he family, solely based on the fact that there were no characters in that group to mix it up with.

Can someone please tell me what the hell is going on with Quinn's shirt?!

Does your soap have a "Red Swan", a s/l or phrase or character that makes you groan?
The way everyone was saying it on the show was driving me up the wall! I guess they are from mid Pennsylvania.

What major soap change/event would shock you if it happened this year?
I would still love a new soap. Even if it's an amalgam of OLTL and AMC. I'm a die hard soap fan, so I would be into it. I mean with what they're paying everyone at The Today Show for all 12 hours, they could probably produce at least 3!

I guess Xander and Zende serve the same purpose so they couldn't have them on at the same time. They couldn't possibly create some new stories for them.

I've been off the grid for a while, are Shauna and Flo just gone? Zoe? Xander?

All the worse, no one was pronouncing it correctly!

Best/Worst Production Value Periods on Soaps
I agree about Ryan's Hope. I've watched pretty much every soap I could and Ryan's Hope is just not it for me. Really kinda boring.

Characters that Stopped Getting Stories
Let's be fair here! Christine needed backburned after her omnipresence on screen!

Soap stars I didn't know moments
I knew about Krista Allen, she played the "titular" Emanuelle. I didn't know about Susan though!
