DAYS: April 2026 Discussion Thread
Agreed on Kyler. By the way, with all these musical chairs of romantic partners, one thing I wish they would touch upon, even if in random conversation or joking, is the age differences between everyone. You have Last Blaster Belle now showing interest in Chad, who was part of the teen crowd of like 2010 or something. Same with Phillip and Gabi. Then you have Jada shacking up with Last Blaster Shawn, but showing interest in Theo, aged up and graduated highschool in mid 2010's, I think. (I won't bother with Sarah/Brady/Kristen with all the de-aging, aging, and recasting that went on). It's not a big deal, but it's one of those soapy things where once a character graduates high school (and we see them legally getting liquor at a bar the next year...) or college, it becomes a no-man's-land of age. Hell, even the Lucas & Adrienne pairing some years back was odd.

Yeah, Curtis is really the last one to preach about Christian values in the home... He was obnoxious on that.

ALL: Ryan Gosling talks "Days of Our Lives" "Deidre Hall" and the soap genre
Maybe they could shoehorn a Halloween themed or some other holiday standalone episode featuring Gosling, so that we don't have to wait until 2028. You just KNOW he's going to be sporting some yellow contact lenses... :)

ALL: Soap stars who reportedly didnt get along on set which soap actor feuds were real and which were just fan rumors
... and shortly after Watros left GL in '98, Zimmer was out in L.A. and the two visited and laughed it up. Whatever tension there may have once been, it was short-lived.

Bravo's The Real Housewives of....
Beverly Hills has never been more boring, more uneventful, or more irrelevant. Yes, Rachel is a great addition, and I'll always love the commentary and observations from the eternally delightful Jennifer Tilly, but beyond that, it has become an old soap opera you've been devoted to for so long, but now it's become a chore to sit through one episode. Literally, hubby and I have taken 3 consecutive nights to get through one episode at least twice this season (we end up switching to something else or turning in.. we old now, haha)

Married to Medicine
Man, that Part 1 was heavy. Kind of dark in comparison to other reunions. I get where Simone is coming from re: Jackie, but Simone being Simone, she's so adamant about cutting someone off. They'll patch it up. To me, Toya was the most annoying this season. Her pool party was super cringe, the way she lashed out at everyone including her hubby. Every few years, she's the obnoxious one of the group and this was her year again. Now that the whole season has played out, I have no clue why they "demoted" Heavenly.

LOL that queen should know better than to mess with OG Kendall.

Bravo's The Real Housewives of....
Yup and yup. After everything we've witnessed, this screams "We desperately need the Bravo cheque!" Everyone on this show is pretty despicable, not aspirational. I'll give Real Housewives of Guiding Light a chance. Not a huge fan of them all looking the same and seemingly the same age group (minus Dolores), but I'll give 'em a chance.

ALL: Ryan Gosling talks "Days of Our Lives" "Deidre Hall" and the soap genre
Secretly, I've always thought if JER's 1993-1997 material was used on a brand new soap (i.e. Passions) and not a soap with a 30 year fan base, it never would've been a hit or enduring daytime sensation.

Interesting news on Potomac. So they're cutting Kiearna and Debbie Downer? See ya. For New Jersey, I'm sad to see Marge leave if we're continuing with this group of women. Not the person I would've chosen to ax, but then I'm over RHONJ in general. They should've suffered the same fate as OG RHONY.

Same! I'm glad someone from the long-running soaps got the ball rolling and set up a way to provide and monetize their vast catalog of past episodes. I hope Corday follows behind. It always seemed like he was itching for a way to do something like this. Now there's no excuse, haha.

Daytime Emmys Rule Changes - 53rd Daytime Emmys
So it'll be nearly 2027 where DAYS actors are potentially recognized for work they did in 2024. Nice.
