Julie was involved with Victor in the early 90s.

You brought it up lol Who said anything about “new”?

They should have been brought on as their previous ABC character. There’s no reason why Martin can’t be Tad or why this character can’t be Maria. It’s a waste of an opportunity to bring back classic ABC characters. If they won’t do that, they need to stop casting ex-ABC soap stars.

It’s a waste to use AMC and OLTL actors in new roles.

Seems like at least of the soaps used the 90-day post-strike window to get rid of members of their writing staff. I wonder what kind of politicking is going on BTS. Sheri is absolutely one of the scabs, confirmed by Lysie from Daytime Royalty. She further clarified that Sheri was not the head writer. She went fi-core for the chance to write Days again.

Sheri Anderson is one of the scabs. I don’t know her position either but it wasn’t head writer. So she was either a breakdown writer or script writer. Some of the other scabs are also former Days writers. We can only speculate based on who’s fi-core. Do they think the audience is stupid? They just want bland scripts with no personality? Sounds about right for Griffith, a writer who thought the 50th anniversary of Days of our Lives should be about tragic deaths and murders. Btw, Griffith re-used his own stupid idea of a bicentennial for Days’ 50th when he wrote Y&R’s 50th. The funny part? Salem had already celebrated its bicentennial a dozen years before the 50th 🤣

It led to the letter from Katherine where she admitted Phillip loved Jill more than her.

I followed her from show to show so it did what it was supposed to do. Liked her best on OLTL but I thought PC would’ve benefited the most from having Linda Dano, especially with Skye on GH). I liked Skye best on GH but I really thoroughly enjoyed her on OLTL. I didn’t mention Delia because I don’t like Ava!

Well I disagree with you there. GH is the last ABC soap and I’d love for it to feature even more characters from OLTL, AMC, LOVING/THE CITY, and RYAN’S HOPE. ABC has always been great with crossovers and integrating characters (prime example: Skye on OLTL and GH). Well I disagree with you there. GH is the last ABC soap and I’d love for it to feature even more characters from OLTL, AMC, LOVING/THE CITY, and RYAN’S HOPE. ABC has always been great with crossovers and integrating characters (prime example: Skye on OLTL and GH). Maybe ABC should cut GH to a half hour and pair it with a “super soap” featuring characters from previous soaps (including PORT CHARLES).

I liked the mystery hunt that Katherine sent Jill on after her death over at Y&R. The Horton mystery started by MarDar was a victim of BTS interference. Gina’s puzzle box was the best “mystery of the past” story I’ve seen, followed by the mystery of TC’s shed on Passions.

Ehh, she doesn’t have to play Katherine. Just get her off Days! 😉 You don’t want them to fix the egregious Rick Webber mistake? As much as I like Ron at Days, I hate what he did to Marty on OLTL and what he did to her son and granddaughter on GH. Please show, address it! At least there was a line of dialogue in 2019 from Nora Buchanan that established that Marty was normal again.

It is interesting that their family life mirrored their tv life or vice versa. No biological children together; instead a blended family (without the ick of Julie being Hope’s mother-sister).

I’m curious if they’ll bring anyone back. My first choice is Julie Marie Berman as Lulu. Next would be Jacob Young or another recast as Lucky. David Tom would be excellent. As hinted in the 50th anniversary episodes, Rick may be alive so I want him back to reunite with Lesley while also undoing that godawful 2002 story. Of course I want Vanessa Marcil back in any capacity. Matt Ashford as Tom Hardy. Carly Schroeder as Serena. Or at least an aged-up Christina. Amber Tamblyn as Emily. A Susan Haskell appearance as Marty to establish Cole and Hope are alive and well while also retconning PC’s Ian and Granya. Never felt right to me that Patrick married a woman who looked identical to his dead sister. Dillon recast. Tonja Walker as Olivia Jerome, with the pubic reveal that she is also Alex Olanov. A brief Luke return to establish he’s still alive and have a one-night stand with Laura (sorry, Kevin). This would be hard to pull off but I want Stephen Nichols and Mary Beth Evans back as Stefan and Katherine.

The Horton house burning down could be going somewhere. How do you feel about Orpheus? I find he’s more in the Clyde range than Stefano range.

I would love for Jack to return and kill Clyde as revenge for murdering his baby girl.

What does she mean by book? The script?

No one is “settling” for Ronn Moss and his “ilk”. We embrace him. These kinds of performances belong on daytime so don’t tell us to watch John Waters movies instead. You can always record and fast forward through what you don’t like. Twenty years later, people still hate on Charity Rahmer but she was still a much better Belle than Martha Dumptruck. The condescension and moral superiority is unnecessary and in fact is downright rude.

Julie and her husband living in her dead ex’s house…oh boy! Where are John and Marlena going to have a picnic in the middle of winter? If it’s the floor of the townhouse….😠

I don’t think it was that bad but I can hear in his voice his apathy towards the show. Btw, if you’re spending all your time golfing you’re not the showrunner.

What’s your favorite catfight? -Marlena vs Kristen in the secret room was fabulous -Lauren and Sheila in the hotel room -Jill versus Katherine in the attic I didn’t watch the new Dynasty all that much but the Crystal vs Alexis catfight in the season one finale was terrific

Is there any chance you could post the scene of Stefano reading Sami’s diary and finding out Belle was John’s? God I looooooooved Sami vs Marlena! The slaps Marlena gave Sami were epic. Deidre’s gasp and wind-up were always *chef’s kiss* In addition to that, I’ve always wanted to read JER’s original bible for Passions. I believe JER had a sister and she probably has all these documents.

I agree with you about soap acting. The acting style of someone like Meryl Streep has no place on a soap opera. I like the acting style of Susan Seaforth-Hayes, Brenda Dickson, Deidre Hall, Lindsay Korman, Robin Strasser, Judith Chapman, Ronn Moss, Eric Braeden, etc. Ham it up, ladies and gents! I demand to be entertained!

I’d love to see Vee, Khan, Liberty City and others called out and held accountable.

Griffith did this on Days too. Brought characters back from the dead without any attempt to properly explain it. I don’t think Phillip should’ve been killed off in the first place so I was glad he returned. Foolishly I thought Daniel Goddard was going to leave the show when Phillip returned but it was the other way around.

I think Ken has had a specific end date for Days in mind for years which is why he put the full running of the show into the hands of one of his close buddies.
