Last year, Chelsea poisoned Rey with thallium. Thallium mainly causes hair loss and neurological symptoms, but rapidly becomes lethal if untreated. The hospital got him the antidote and he recovered. I've seen speculations online that maybe Rey had residual effects that weakened his heart, but of course these are random nonscientific soap speculations.

Missy Reeves confirmed at a fan event Feb 19-20, 2022 that Abigail dies. Didn't say the manner of death. Missy said she wasn't available for taping those scenes, so Cady McClain would be airing for that. The date of Abigail's death was not revealed. However Cady posted (and then deleted) a picture of herself in a Days dressing room on January 6, 2022.

I googled the actor Michael Kruse when he was first cast as Rory, and found this youtube channel. I watched a bunch of episodes. It was clear to me that it's not a channel for fans. Michael Kruse and his wife made this youtube channel to let their friends and family know what's going on with them. His sister is on it sometimes. Sometimes they do a shoutout to an in-law or cousin or whatever. Many people around the world post their updates for their friends/family on their facebook accounts. Michael Kruse and his wife do it on their youtube. I don't think they realize any GH viewers found this channel.

Thanks for the photo! They began taping during week of April 18, per @JAS0N47 https://jason47.com/days/productionschedule.html Taping during week of 4/18/22-4/22/22: Days episodes # 14447-14450 (airing 10/20/22-10/25/22) ... and portions of BEYOND SALEM 2. Taping during week of Week of 4/25/22-4/29/22: Days episodes # 14451-14454 (airing 10/26/22-10/31/22) ... and portions of BEYOND SALEM 2. (the October airdates are an average/approximation, because the daytime show tapes a lot of things out of order. The taping is occasionally done in chunks, or the schedule occasionally adapts for the availability of sets and personnel - due to COVID regulations and other factors.)

Per jason47's facebook it was Jean Coulter https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=386203443519398&id=100063892362234

NLG had tweeted that her spinal surgery was March 23. She said she's back to work today (April 27). That's five weeks off. GH has a tape-to-airdate gap of 3-4 weeks. Yeah they had to get a sub. In contrast, with DAYS, the tape-to-airdate gap is an *average* of 6 months; so they are able to rearrange taping schedules by availability of cast and crew - and a lot of things are filmed way out of order.

I notice that some on twitter are considering doing instagram instead. Instagram is owned by facebook, so that's a "no" for me.

I like this picture of John. I think Nicky Schillace retired from hair-and-make-up in 2020? Or has he returned? Regardless of the date of this photo, It's a nice picture. I like that John is studying his script.

Not a rumor. Carlivati said it in more than one interview last year.

Thurs. 4/28 and Fri. 4/29 - Ben and Andre. WARNING – annoying spoiler sanctifying the serial killer. (Barf). It's so barf-worthy that I'm putting it behind a spoiler tag.

There have been online comments of concern/caring re: Jackée Harry because she has been recently airing on Days as Paulina seated and not walking. Jackée addressed that via twitter to say she had knee surgery and the Days team was gracious and took care of her. She's fine now. (And whatever is airing now, was filmed months ago).

It's from the Y&R youtube channel which I think works only in the US. It's the scene at the end of Monday April 25 US episode when Jack brings Nikki to Diane's hotel room. The very last one minute and 8 seconds of the episode. The first 30-35 seconds are Phyllis and Nikki arguing in the hotel room, and then there's a knock . Phyllis answers the door, and Jack is there and says "Change of plans" and then he steps aside and you see Nikki is with him. Nikki enters the hotel room and she and Diane stare. But as Darn said, it's *how* it was filmed.

I am so tired of the devil stuff and the Cin stuff. I fast-forward through most of it. I get tired just reading the spoilers. Sigh.

No photo, but Brock Kelly returns Wednesday as Evan Frears. AllieDevil releases him from prison in exchange for Evan doing a favor for the devil. Devil Allie had already kidnapped Ben and locked him in the DiMera crypt. Now, when Ciara tries to search for Ben, DevilAllie comes up with a plot to stop Ciara from searching. Wed 4/27 and Thurs 4/28: DevilAllie asks Evan to convince Ciara that he killed Ben. Evan agrees, so Allie breaks him out of prison. Ciara is horrified to discover Evan standing over Ben’s body. (But it's not really Ben's body. It's a trick/illusion created by the devil to look like dead Ben.)

I remember watching on live TV back then when Meg died. It was very emotional and I was young, and it affected me, and I had to take a break from the show so I wouldn't fall apart. I was too young to know how to put that in words, I just knew it was too upsetting for me to watch.

And the only LatinX character remaining on Y&R is Mrs. Martinez, who has not been shown since 2017? Spoiler: Mon 4/25 Canada/ Tues 4/26 US - Harrison is sent to the Abbott kitchen to get cookies from Mrs. Martinez.

Trigger Alert: Message from Donielle Artese, the actress who plays TR's ex "Beth": The posted this on her instagram and on her facebook account Beth is back 4/22, and Monday 4/25!!! I need to advise you, the next episodes could be very triggering for victims/survivors of domestic violence. This is a very sensitive topic for me, and was very difficult to do. Please watch with compassion. ______________________________________________ (There is a scene near the end of Mon 4/25 episode, TR arrives and then you hear her screaming offscreen - they don't show it but you know it's bad. It might continue in another episode this week)

LOL I've noticed that Drew acts like a cheap psychology talk-show host. So weird.
