I appreciate affairs on soaps, and for other characters of all genders I might say yes to that. But I really like Smitty and Jacob as platonic friends -- I just think they work well as friends and they each need a friend.I think Jacob and Smitty work better as friends than Jacob and Derek.

October 19, 2023 Patrick Stewart (from Star Trek etc.) was in the Old Vic Touring Company in England with Vivian Leigh. Patrick tells Conan O'Brien that he(Patrick) attended a re-release of Gone With the Wind in a movie theater, seated next to Vivian Leigh and her boyfriend, and she cried. He also says that he invited her to his 25th birthday party and she attended, and gave him a present of a handkerchief scented with her favorite perfume. My words are useless here, just watch

There's a monthly event in Atlanta at the GatheringSpot, called the "Pre-Production Social". The blurb says these Pre Production Socials are "a place where Directors, Producers, DP’s, Actors/Actresses, and crew can come together to celebrate what we do and what we are in the process of creating." https://maestrocine.com/thepreproductionsocial flyer for the July 11, 2025 event

Lulu works for Viki at the Banner. Ms. Slezak should appear as Viki.

When Haley ordered the food today at Orphey Gene's, I was just so glad that menu items were being named. I think I mentioned a few months ago that I wanted to see Orphey Gene's Soul Kitchen's menu mentioned when customers order food, to make it a distinct place and not a generic diner.

I had actually considered that there could be a separate thread for "all" current soaps: Do current soap actors *realistically* have the time to take acting lessons and improve their skills? And even for seasoned soap actors: are they *realistically* able to keep their skills sharp or do they rely on simply memorizing their lines to get by, not realizing that their acting skills might be slipping? (I mean Clifton Davis and Tamara Tunie are all in, but it's not always the case on other shows). Anyhow, topic for a separate thread, if anyone wants to start one.

NEW promo week of July 14-18

same!

Today Monday July 14, this episode is so intense! I missed the first 25 minutes but what I've seen so far, I was holding my breath. Commercial break now, taking a breath. Can't wait to watch the beginning later today.

Susan had a stunt double, Suzanne did not. Suzanne had one take and 30 seconds to put that fire out or the stunt double was in trouble… Legendary behavior. Both of these ladies ❤️

I started to react, then remembered it's still a rumor.

Oh, there's a thought! Hmmmmm. Madison and Chelsea were talking about Anita and ... Chelsea was building up how wonderful Anita is.

I think June might be too young to be Barbara? But ages are confusing with so many characters so who knows. But yeah I don't know if we can be certain that Barbara is dead.

Here is the job listing on indeed.com https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=4aafe6a8fccb8003 update: https://bsky.app/profile/revsarahgm.bsky.social/post/3ltueicm2l22r They also have the jobs posted for the lower ranking thugs. No hourly wage listed. I guess people who click on that one are supposed to want to do that kind of work, regardless of pay? https://www.indeed.com/cmp/Critical-Response-Strategies-2/jobs?jk=e315bbb385ad1c2d

And the other pending storyline is June, and the children in her photo -- and how June might be connected to Tracy of the Articulettes, or to Hayley, or to Samantha&Tyrell.

I feel bad that I posted something encouraging before I knew about next week.

yes the timing of Ric Lansing's arrival coincidentally lines up with Scotty's absence due to Kin Shriner's medical issues, per Kin's tweet in above post.

This site is imperfect (as is every site) ... but their recaps are adequate for catching up: https://soapsspoilers.com/beyond-the-gates/recaps And congrats on becoming a parent!

I'm curious if Sophia's baby is Tate's or not. Is this John's great grandchild? And even if the baby isn't descended from John, you know John would have loved the child regardless of genetics. However, the rest of the show is uninteresting to me, and I just can't make myself watch the show or read the spoilers for the baby storyline, especially since I dislike Leo. I care about Holly and Arianna, but nothing about their current storylines. So those are the last spoiler pics I will post for now, as I'm taking a break from DAYS.
