More random shootings, this time at the Metro Court pool??? Huh??? Who would live in this damn town? Shootings break out everywhere and anywhere for no reason. This is sloppy, lazy writing that is tone deaf to the gun violence we see every day.

I'm more than fine with Hope riding Thomas. I just wish Thomas and Hope fans would admit that Hope is a piece of work. JUST YESTERDAY she cried and begged Liam to take her back and not divorce her. Today? She's licking her lips while talking to Thomas and moving THISCLOSE to him because she wants him so bad.

GH gets a lot of praise for its sets, but that nail salon set is bad. It could not look more plastic or more fake.

One of the biggest problems with DAYS is the constant in-and-out of major characters It reeks of money problems, it reeks of writer ADHD, it reeks of treating actors horribly, it reeks of "Let's do something soaps have never done." I cannot get used to it, and I never will.

I realize GH loves that pool set and wants to use it all summer, but the character meet-ups there are all kinds of hilarious, especially when they're dressed for anything but swimming.

Anyone expecting Brad Bell to kill off Liam is delusional. That is never going to happen. Regardless of how awful Liam is, can we talk about how psychotic Hope is??? She pants for Thomas for months, kisses him and wants to ride him in Paris, and now tells him it was a mistake? And sends Liam a dozen texts begging forgiveness? Hope is NUTS.

I despise Leo with red-hot passion. There are so many ways to write his character as a real, authentic, and funny gay guy. Instead, we get a caricature and a cringeworthy joke. It's stunning and sickening that a gay head writer thinks this shyt is clever and hilarious and so 2023.

I have no faith that's the end of Liam chasing Steffy, or even planting kisses on her.

How much weight has Cameron Mathison lost? He's WAY too thin -- it's aged him 5-10 years.

I agree with you about Errol. It is so great to see someone in the soap press who's so honest and upfront about what's wring with a show or the industry in general. Almost every soap journalist gives softball interviews and fluff coverage to every show. I don't think there's a more dishonest arm in journalism than the soap press, who seem to be afraid their arms will be cut off if they're critical.

I hear you. I just don't think that Bo & Hope storyline would have worked on Beyond Salem 3, either. There's no DAYS universe where that story works. I've read numerous interviews with KA, but I've never seen one that mentioned she'd never be back in Salem. If she had said that, soap Twitter would have blown up. Do you have a link? I'm not Alfonso fanboy, but what you're implying just sounds like unfounded gossip to me, all under the "Kristian Alfonso is Difficult" umbrella. She had a problem with younger love interests and expressed that for years? She was a pain in the ass with that stuff? DAYS catered to get out of her what they did? I cannot remember reading any of this except as rumor. If it came out of KA's mouth, I'd love to read the interviews.

I refuse to blame KA and PR for that storyline fiasco. They were signed for so many weeks and so many shows. Carlivati knew how long he had them, and it’s HIS fault he kept them apart until their final appearances and that completely botched ending. No one can tell me that Kristian or Peter had anything to do with that mess.

It’s the eyebrows on KS, but it’s also her makeup, her eyes, the hair, the outfit…it’s all bad. It just gets worse and worse.

LMAO It was a great ending to an absolutely RIDICULOUS half hour. -- Steffy congratulating Hope on her magnificent "vision." I mean, we saw 3 dresses, including Hope's Elsa ripoff. -- Thomas and Hope decide to GO FOR A WALK??? LOL So glad the Colosseum was nearby. -- Speaking of walking, Liam decides to WALK AROUND ROME looking for Hope, all so he can keep his appearance a surprise. I mean, really? -- And are we going to be told that Hope was caught up in the romantic moment? Girl looked like she wanted to swallow Thomas whole and ride him right there.

Is there a reason Maxie looks like a drag queen today?

If DAYS were rolling aas a good show right now, things like losing p.r. people wouldn't hit as hard. However, since the show is a mess storywise, it just comes off as another nail in the coffin. We start seeing cost-cutting everywhere -- including where there hasn't been any. IMO, the Bo & Hope story debacle really hurt. It was a chance to use history and legacy and iconic soap actors to reel in lapsed viewers and hold on to the audience it has. The result was a complete and utter failure, on every level, with no impact on future storytelling. Actors are shuffled in and out SO often that it's laughable. If we like a return, that actor is gone a few months later. Production-wise, we were fooled by a couple new sets that looked good. Lately, the show looks dark and dingy to me, as if someone dimmed all the lights to hide the sets. Maybe DAYS can save even more money by throwing up a black curtain and having the actors perform everything in front of it. Who needs sets? And now ANOTHER day with Bonnie and her bad cold??? Jesus.

Speaking of awful.... Those "Bonnie has a cold" scenes are PAINFUL.

Yep. Hope looked like Elsa -- if Elsa went to Walmart for her Halloween costume.

Yeah, you can get it on a plane. Bill said his system was being replaced LOL

And surprise, surprise -- the WiFi onboard the jet doesn't work!! Can these writers BE any lazier?

I was corrected on that when I called it a fashion show. I was told "I'ts just a shoot." LOL So BOLD had Hope and Brooke out in public, surrounded by a bunch of tourists supposedly in awe. Hope was waving her arms around so much I started LOL. Her dress? BAD. Brooke actually looked nice, but I thought it was odd that a supposed line representing the future would feature a grandma.

Cameron Matheson got another one of those Hallmark movies. That's why he's gone for awhile. If Frank is hot for him (as he seems to be), he'll be back. In other news, you can tell how good GH is these days by seeing all the GL posts in this thread. Speaks volumes.

Something tells me that "Peacock money" was never a real thing. This is literally Death by a Thousand Cuts. It's really a shame. I enjoy the actor and the character. Carlivati does WAY too much shuffling in-and-out with characters. Especially awful is that track used at the end of every episode. Jesus, that's bad.

That "photo shoot" (or whatever the hell it was) with Hope and Brooke was so lame. In that 2nd awful dress, Hope just kept waving around her arms for minutes -- like some 6 year old imitating a fashion model. And then they put 60 year old Brooke in a "Hope For The Future" design? LOL That's followed by a press conference. Yeah, 3 dresses leads to a press conference where Hope rambles about the deep meaning of her company. Cringe. The only good part was seeing Steffy roll her eyes. In other news, RJ has a scene with Paris, sitting right next to her. Not a speck of chemistry. None.

Wow? What did I get wrong about Julie?
