DAYS: December 2023 Discussion Thread
Today was actually pretty good, despite there being a strange obsession with socks 😂 But finally, a Stephanie/Jada scene! I liked it. The actresses seem to play off each other well and it’s always good to get a friendship scene between characters. It was the right decision to have Stephanie’s ex and Jada’s ex be the same person. That opens up this storyline to so many more possibilities. Also, some people may disagree lol but Harris being a part of this storyline, and to an extension Stefan/Ava, could be good as well. And finally, a Theresa/Tate scene. And just like I’m sure we all suspected, it was lousy. EOB’s Theresa did not come off as Tate’s mother at all. She came off more like the uninterested, gold digging stepmother lol It just seems so out of character, especially since we were told for years that Theresa was pretty much raising Tate all on her own and was devoted to him. If they were gonna go this route, they should’ve at least had Theresa say that she was stepping back a little on raising Tate now that Brady is playing a bigger part in his life. Btw, Shane and Kim were married three times? I thought it was only twice. Brady/Tate was a good parent-child scene though. Brady seems to be doing what he can in order to show Tate that he does care, while also trying to help him stay on the straight and narrow and I like that. It’s a good dilemma for Brady… and it finally keeps him away from Kristen. I wonder if anything’s gonna happen now that Brady gave Tate his credit card. It could lead to some kind of conflict for him and Holly. And idk why but I enjoyed Stefan/Ava today as well, even though I’m not liking their storyline at the moment and Clyde needs to die. But it may actually improve if that happened lol. And with Ava calling Stefan Jake today, it seems like they may be going with some kind of transference storyline and I actually don’t mind that. One thing though, since Days is written and taped so far ahead, they really should cut out any pop culture references. Does anyone still stream Mrs. Davis? 😂😂😂 Yeah. It was mentioned from the beginning that she had been divorced.

DAYS: Actor Exits Role!
I hate this but it’s for the best. Peter Porte was completely wasted. Wasted even worse than Zach Tinker, which I didn’t think was possible. All because Ron Carlivati is too hard for Leo and too small minded to have a gay actor play anything but a gay character. SMH I wouldn’t even be surprised if he was angry when Peter Porte was first cast in Beyond Salem. This storyline and this pairing were total garbage. How do you get this talented, charismatic, and absolutely gorgeous actor, who can be a villain, can do comedy and can have good romantic chemistry with both men and women and then approve such an awful, mean spirited and nonsensical storyline for him? And pair him with the worst character on the show? They didn’t just drop the ball with this storyline and character. They dropped it, ran it over with a friggin 18-wheeler and then set what was left on fire. I’m sure we’ll see him again. I just hope that Leo is dead or gone when we do. There’s still an obvious storyline there with Megan. And also with the ISA connection #Dandrew In the meantime, I’m sure Peter Porte will land roles that are actually good enough for him. I may not miss his character all that much but I’ll definitely miss him 😍😍😊 EDIT: My apologies, for the rant lol

Today was… ehhh. Hopefully, when we reach the episodes that were written solely by scab writers, they’ll be less obsessive prop writing. Leo just needs to die. Alex is another character that gets the obsessive writing as well. I think I actually would have liked his and Stephanie’s scenes if there wasn’t an agenda at play. Crazy how this team gets tired of some characters and storylines so quickly, but these two clowns are still shoved down our throats. I’m still Team Chad, even though he overreacted today about Alex and Stephanie. He really is the best example of what a gray character should be. Steve’s scenes were the best part of today, both with Stephanie and with Jada. I liked him encouraging Stephanie not give up, and also him and Jada remembering Marcus. That’s the way that you use history. And btw, Dimitri’s gone? Just like that? I’m sure we’ll see him again but damn lol

Ok, can somebody please explain to me why we didn’t see EJ punch Leo??? I had to rewind it just to see if I had missed it, and I didn’t. I do have an idea why we didn’t see it but of course I could be wrong lol. I still will never understand how anyone in production could approve such blatantly biased writing. #DontdrinktheKoolAid. I’m already getting annoyed, thinking about his scenes tomorrow. It was good seeing Lucas again, but what was the point of him butting heads with Dimitri? Especially if we’re probably not gonna see him again for who knows how long. Dimitri couldn’t have run into Evan in prison? That would be a nice pairing. Did Evan ever get up out of the water? 😂😂 Btw, I love how Lucas is all salty about Dimitri kidnapping Kate, but not about the fact that he tried to kill Lucas’ entire family with the damn Peacock. The Paulina/Melinda bitchfight was unnecessary too. The Abe/Kate scene was really nice though. I liked seeing Kate encouraging Abe to not give up hope, even though I did kinda forget that Abe is still having memory problems. Eric/Nicole was really good too. I’m enjoying how they’re going through all the motions of this storyline. It really is elevating the show and making it watchable.

So, if he has all this experience, why is his writing so awful? Some of the worst things we've seen on Days ever (Sarah as Renee, Leo pretending to be Gwen, the friggin giant Duke bear) have been from him. I'm not even trying to be mean, that's a serious question. I actually tried watching and I couldn't make it either. Serious props to @j swift and @janea4old

Nicole/Ari and EJ/Dan are still killing it. I expected something like what EJ suggested today to happen for them. It’s completely natural, especially in a situation like this. And so was Nicole’s reaction. Still enjoying Tate/Holly as well. I like how the actress has been playing the character. Holly still comes off like an inexperienced teenager with a crush, but at the same time, she doesn’t play it as bratty and annoying and that’s always a good thing lol And I do see some chemistry between her and Tate. They’re no Sprina lol but I’m ready to go along for the ride with them. One of them could really use a friend their own age though. Good cliffhanger with Eric and Sloan too Because she’s like 20 and competing in a category that supposed to be for actors 18 or under. And she’s got a lot more to show than two child actors. It doesn’t seem fair at all She should’ve dropped out when Victoria Grace did.

My guess is the show’s trying to make fans forget how disgusting she is, how horribly she treated all the people that she’s supposed to care about. Add in, Mo, probably demanding that his son be used more, and we got stuck with this lol

Today was ok. As long in the tooth as John and Steve are, I do like seeing them on a case. I’m looking forward to them finally busting Konstantin. And I’m glad they brought up security cameras in Salem. Now, if only someone who install cameras at the hospital and the police station 😂😂 Alex and Theresa were the same as always. I love how they have Theresa say that she’s not a gold digger, but that’s clearly the way that Emily O’Brien is playing it. She really could use a little more direction in pretty much every episode she’s in. As for Chad and Stephanie, they really do have good fights so it was too bad that today’s was cut short. We really should have seen more. That would’ve provided a better explanation as to why Chad immediately offered Everett his job back. I’m still on Chad’s side though a little, even though they really should have had him buy the paper not only to fire Everett, but for Thomas and Charlotte as well. At the same time, I also see Stephanie’s point. It’s a really interesting dynamic between the two of them. The unpredictability of it all makes it worth watching. And speaking of unpredictability, just a fair warning, I read a possible spoiler for next week that some of y’all are not gonna like.

Spencer was breaking my heart today. I’m interested in how this storyline is going to play out. It could go in a lot of different directions. I just hope he doesn’t cheat. As for Finn and the malpractice suit, I guess I should be happy that we’re getting a hospital storyline on the hospital soap but I just don’t care lol Don’t care about Joss and Mo’s son either. She’s still disgusting.

Ratings From the 90's
I take it that the Brian/Tanner/Molly crew was unpopular from the very beginning as well 😂😂 Been asking that question for years. Not even just for Days, but for every soap
