No, do you? I've seen enough to make this OBSERVATION
I have seen enough of her and think she seems to be a wonderful person and a great mother.
Harry is still feeling the effects of the loosing his mother at a young age and how she was always being followed and he is well aware how antiqued and probably pointless the royal family truly is. He always been the rebel of the family and now he has Meghan, to really callout the family. He is following in his mothers footsteps.
I was shocked that the people of England taxes, like 100 million goes to the royal family. They are driving in Ranger Rovers, have security, while many people of the country are strolling to put food on the table.
Sorry, I think the royal family should be abolished and make they work at McDonald's and have them fly Ryan Air, like the regular Brits lol

I guess I'm naive, I never realized till seeing what Meghan endured, how racist people in the UK are.
It's not just the UK, it's all over the world. Look at Brazil, it's built on what status you are and even the color of your skin. Brazil has 3 different races they class: white, black, and pardo (mix race), which is almost half the population.
Many European countries, especially during the Syrian refugee crisis, refused to let them stay in their countries, like Greece, Italy, Hungary, Poland to name a few. Countries like Germany and England were more welcoming.
The thing about many European countries, they won't change their ways and you have to adapt to their ways and culture. Smoking is still a huge thing and as someone who plans on relocating to Europe in a few years, they are very well aware of America's cancel culture and are against it.

Alex is just a waste of space. Robert Scott Wilson should've been fired instead of him basically playing Ben again.
So EJ and Belle are over? Lololol
EJ/Ava/Johnny....I'm sure EJ will just use her to get Dimera shares....
I doubt this will amount to nothing just like the rest of Ron Carlivati stories.
The show IS SO BAD RIGHT NOW. I can see why NBC is dumping it.
1. I really wanted EJ/Belle to go go for a lot longer. Have her get knocked up and everyone thinking it was EJ's baby, but plot twist, ended up being Shawn's after we discover they hooked up one drunkin night.
2.The Dimera shares just bug me. I still don't know what they own or run, since they don't explain it. Its all about their shares, but then you have stakeholders? Business storylines are terrible on this show.
I would have Ava, who takes full control of Basic Black and Countess Wilhemina Cosmetics in a hostile takeover after being neglected and losing money, both which were part of the Dimera Enterprise and MadWorld Cosmetics from Titan with the help of Jake and Xander. Make them become successful online companies and see Dimera and Titan start losing power.
3. RSW is just a terrible actor. They should have cast someone better to play Alex. I would have stolen from Y&R Michael Mealor and casted him as Alex. Sonny and Alex, I would start to reconcile their relationship, like they had a riff and start to bond as brothers. Their focus is trying to save Titan from an utter collapse with new ideas, that all seem to fail. Rumors start circling around Salem, that a foreign company is looking to buy Titan to liquate its assets.

@KMan101 Who doesn't like Carson? It's his acting that sucks!
I will take his acting any day over RSW acting.

Given the limited range that we've observed between RSW's performance on DAYS, AMC, and The Price is Right, one suspects it was not a huge hindrance.
I like to know is how they going to explain Alex's think Boston accent. RSW accent is extremely noticeable.

I think people have a problem with the character Ben and not necessarily the actor. That said, there's other actors out there. And with that said, look at Bonnie/Adrienne or Josh Taylor's two different roles on the show.
The actor is just horrible. So, is Alex going to have a thick Boston accent, because RSW, you can clearly hear him talk with it, sometimes, it comes out very thick.
I would rather have the actor who plays Ben, been Alex.

It looks more recent that 1986, but who knows? Maybe it was during the Belle stuff. It looks like a SOW pic when they used to do interesting photos.
Anyhow, I think RSW is better than CB, but I honestly think CB might be the worst actor on the show lol. I like him and hope he figures it out though. I just don't think RSW is that bad. But then again I don't think EM as Brady is that good either and he gets nominated for emmys year after year. So it's entirely possible I have no taste.
RSW is terrible, can't stand how hard his pronounces some words sometimes and that Boston accent.. EM isn't that bad, just miscast as Brady. Way to old to be playing that character.

I don’t really have a huge issue with RSW, my issue is with the character of Ben being a violent serial killer turned into romantic lead and besties with one of his victims and the victim’s Grandmother acting as a freaking surrogate mom to him. Not to mention if you bring up that ya know he murdered several people, his wife will yell at you into submission. Also the mother of one his victims was somehow a villain for wanting revenge.
I think he is a horrible actor. The way he pronounces his words sometimes, and when his Boston accent comes out. He acting just ruins everything for me. Also that Days seems to push him as a leading man, gets on my nerves.

Its ridiculous if Sonny still has feelings for Leo.
I can see Leo playing him again to get even.
They separate Will and Sonny for this and Sonny realizes his mistake and goes back to Will....just watch!
Or maybe Paul comes back down the road, and Sonny runs into his arms.

Still miss Salem Place, the outdoor set Days used from the early 1990s to mind 2000s.
I believe it was the only soap to actually used an outdoor set, well at that time.
wish they could bring it back Instead of Horton Square.

I wonder if the storyline has anything to do with Colin Murphy? Didn't Ron tweet something about the character a while back?
Remember, Colin was the only casualty of the Melaswen storyline. While leaving the island during a storm, he was lost at sea and assumed to have drowned.

I agree with people have said, fire Ron Carlivati and anyone he brought on. I would keep any writer that has history with the show, like the Cullitons, Broderick and bring back Sheri Anderson. Have one of them be co-head writer and bring on someone fresh and new, that has no ties to any other soap.
Corday really needs to just retire and bring back Ed Scott. I remember when he was on, he did a good job with Days, he has history with the classic YR.
I would split the show, into two arcs. Both arcs last six months. You don't have to use all actors all year around, they could be heavily used in one arc and not use them in another. Gives actors a chance to do something else instead.
Here are some storylines I would create:
I would create a serial killer storyline to kill off some of the characters that I find to be pointless. Rafe, Ben, Susan, Bonnie will all be killed off by a serial killer. The killer would be like a background character.
Brady and Nicole, while on a flight, their airplane disappears over Chile and everyone on the plane goes missing and presumed dead, since they can’t find out what happened to the plane. (It would give a chance for them to bring them back down the road)
After the death of Ben, Ciara leaves Salem to look for her mother.
Roman, has a heart attack and dies.
I would reverse the killing of Laura and have her come back and kill Gwen with the help of Mike, but it made like she was killed by the serial killer.
I would reverse the death of Adrianne. Steve decides to quit the ISA and opens his own personal private detective shop with his son Joey. He receives a letter from someone in South America that Adrianne is alive. He and Jack go to South America to get her and find out they have another brother Kenneth, that Duke Johnson took and sold to a rich family, right after birth.Doug Williams becomes gravely ill, and Sarah Horton is out to look for a cure to save him with the help of John Black. We are introduced to Emily LeClair, Douglas LeClair daughter. Doug’s son and Hopes half-brother.
Bring in Joy, Chloe’s younger sister. Joy becomes a massive YouTube/TikTok star and wins one of those singing competition shows, where she becomes very famous. Chloe becomes her manager, however, is extremely jealous of her sister’s career, since it’s something she wanted when she was young.
Gabi is heartbroken by the death of her brother and has no time to focus on Gabi Chic, as she falls into a deep depression. During her depression, she is somehow tricked into signing her company away to Ava, who also takes full control of Basic Black and Countess Wilhemina Cosmetics in a hostile takeover from Dimera Enterprise and MadWorld Cosmetics from Titan with the help of Jake and Xander. This will lead Ava to create a new company, named Vitali Incorporated. Ava becomes founder and CEO of the new company and Xander becomes president, while Jake becomes VP of the new company. She rebrands the companies as an online retailer, focusing on social media platforms like Tik Tok and Instagram to grow the brands. All brands explode in sales and become worldwide successes. During this time, Ava and Jake start to have an affair.These are some of the stories I have, I have many more, one including bringing back Kristian Alfonso as Hope and Peter Reckell as a Brady, but not Bo.
I would also bring back Carrie and Austin, Scotty Banning, and Alexander
I would bring in 17 year old Noah Reed, 19-year-old Sydney Dimera, 18-year-old Tyler Wilkens aka Pocket, and 17-year-old Rachel Black.0 -

Fire the headwriter, Ron Carlivati, Bring in a new head writer, Maybe hire a co-executive producer or Fire Ken Corday and Replace him period, Stop filming so far ahead, get new money in budget, so the Kiriakis living room, and other sets, plus new sets for characters with no homes etc. I'd also drop several from the cast including The Devil, Leo, Rafe, Nicole, Clyde, Orpheus, Kristen, Susan, plus maybe Jake, Gabi, Ava, Craig & Gwen. Stop the stupid devil, Leo & Sarah stories.
I would keep Ava and Jake.
get rid of Rafe, Brady, Nicole, Bonnie, Gwen, Roman, Susan, Ben, and Ciara.

I didn't see anything either. Except for Rafe, Sonny's pretty much the only person in Salem who still likes Gabi. He was the only person she could have had a scene with
And yes, he did look adorable lol
Are they dressing Sonny differently now? He looked hot in today's wardrobe. I would say, Sonny and Gabi would make a hot couple, if you know Sonny was straight. They had a spark and really good chemistry just like Jake and Ava did today.

I don't think so? I think both actress go with the flow these days. I think both are always very positive and seem happy to be working.
Yea, i think its different now. Its not the 80's or 90's were there were over 10 soaps and they were still very popular. We are down to 4, all of which are bare bones of their former self's. They are just happy to be on screen and living they happy lives.

What happened in 1984? Did she criticize the writing like Matt Ashford and John Aniston did to JER back in the 1990s?

Lol! The thing is I don't think it's a new societal trend. I have known quite a few people who eat mayo and french fries. And some of them weren't even related.........but perhaps it's making those people feel more accepted since it was shown on Days with such care and understanding to those who make the choice of french fries and mayo
.
It’s very popular thing in England. The Brits love mayo with their fries.

I thought Corday was a composer? Can’t he come up with music?
3 hours ago, Soapsuds said:Craig is coming off like a prick! The only time he made sense was when he talked about losing both of his daughters. You'd think that there was only one gay dick in Salem and the surrounding areas.
Apparently you haven't seen the pic I posted on the Days article thread where Christopher Sean is air kissing Zach Tinker?
No I didn’t see it. I really wish they didn’t make Charlie a crazy killer and rapist. He had so much potential!

Christopher Sean really needs to return. Him and Zach Tinker would just ooze in sex. I always been a fan of Sonny and Paul together. Like CS, Zach seems to mesh with everyone you put infront of him. If Chandler now lives in Atlanta, have him do a Sami, and pop in once in a while, heck he can even zoom to check in on everyone from time to time. Sonny, you can give him other storylines. Always thought be a good time to introduce his brother Alex.

And the fact that they're making Craig a dumb, selfish piece of crap makes me dislike it even more
11 hours ago, Soapsuds said:Seriously the Craig and Leo story is terrible and very cringe worthy. It shouldn't have been told. This was about a man in his later years coming out. There should be a serious tone to it but instead it's treated as a joke.
I totally agree with you. This is a SERIOUS story that should have been told the right way. Its being rushed. They should have slowly introduced this story, and it also would have been the best time to introduce Joy as well.
That is why i loved when Will came out, they took there time with it, showing Will struggling for a while. Still love that Lucas was supportive of Will and Sami wasn't in the beginning, because that related very much with me with my parents. Usually its the mother that tends to be supportive and not the father.
I do hate they brought back Leo for this, because he probably wants Craig's money. They should have introduced another character, maybe older to help Craig come out.

Two vid clips inside this tweet. First clip is from the very first scene between Nicole and Jensen Ackles' Eric Brady. Second clip is from the new Days promo.
The promo did an homage to that Zucker/Ackles scene!I really do miss Salem Place.

Ugh!
They really don't give any shows a fair chance these days, do they?
Two seasons to find an audience. Simple as that.
Just ugh.
Why? Everyone know each season ratings will dip with TV shows. If the first season had terrible ratings, don't expect season two to get any better, probably get worse. It didn't find its audience and lets be real, Prime Time TV is no longer the king, with so many streaming services taking over.

Erika Slezak (ex-Viki, OLTL) as Dr. Laura Horton (DAYS).
Michael E. Knight (ex-Tad, AMC; Martin, GH) as Dr. Mike Horton (also DAYS).
Dame Joan Collins (ex-Alexis, DYNASTY) as Vanessa Bennett (AMC).
Michael E. Knight would be way too old to play Mike Horton, especially if they ever wanted to reunite Mike and Carrie together.

Well well well, wouldn't a revival of the Will/Paul/Sonny triangle be interesting to see? Especially now with Zach Tinker in the role #makethishappen
OMG Christopher Sean and Zach Tinker!! I don't know if I am in the minority, I prefer Sonny with Paul and with Zach Tinker in the role.. Lord!!

DAYS: Actress announces she's aired her final episode
in Discuss Previews and Spoilers
Posted
I had an idea of her going after Dimera Enterprises and Titan and Gabi.
Gabi is heartbroken by the death of her brother and has no time to focus on Gabi Chic, as she falls into a deep depression and shuts everyone around her off, including her daughter. During her depression, she is somehow tricked into signing her company away to Ava, who takes full control of Basic Black and Countess Wilhemina Cosmetics in a hostile takeover after being neglected and losing money, both which were part of the Dimera Enterprise and MadWorld Cosmetics from Titan with the help of Jake and Xander.
Ava starts to see the two once almighty companies are starting to fall under hard times, due to poor decisions and lack of real leadership within the two families. This will lead Ava with her family’s money and connections to create a new company, named Vitali Incorporated. Ava becomes founder and CEO of the new company and Xander becomes president.
She rebrands the companies as an online retailer, focusing on social media platforms like Tik Tok and Instagram to grow the brand. With the help of Joy (Chloe's sister), as the face of the companies, all brands explode in sales and become worldwide successes.
