Ah, so that's why Dean Cain signed up. Maybe a couple former Thornes from B&B will be next.

Oh Lord, let's just pretend Tracy Middendorf never happened. Unless they were able to pull off a casting coup like Sarah Michelle Gellar, I wouldn't want to see a Sami recast, IMO.

I loved seeing Carole back! I had to watch the eppy when I heard she popped in. Side Note: Not to be catty, but does Matt Rogers ever do solo interviews? The fabulously talented Bowen Yang can carry a show all by himself, but Matt seems to always need a wingman crutch... Jussayin...'

ARTICLE: Bryan Craig Seeks Return To Daytime Soaps, Open To Joining ‘Days Of Our Lives’ As Recast Javi Hernandez
Well, isn't that lovely. An out of work actor is open to working. What are Charity Rahmer's ambitions? I'm curious about that too.

And Just Like That...
I'll be in the minority on this one and say I'm sorry to see it go. Was the show great? No. Did it offer nostalgia and a look into the continuing lives of characters we loved decades ago? Yes. We'll never know what would've become of Roseanne 2.0 had Barr tried her best to portray herself as a semi sane person in real life, but what I do know is The Conners was a nice way to see the continuation of most of our favorites from Lanford, Illinois even if the show itself wasn't really that great or funny. It tapped into the nostalgia though. And for that, I don't feel I wasted my time on The Conners or And Just Like That. Also, I do think Season 3 was better. The crazy shenanigans with Miranda was over, and there was an easy-breezy feel to the season. Nothing gangbusters, nothing potentially noteworthy, but a decent pace. I'm glad Carrie let Aiden go. Che from Seasons 1 & 2 was just... no. I wish they had been able to keep Karen Pittman as Nya though. Anyways, my two cents. I get the feeling we haven't seen the last of these characters. Whether they're in NYC or retired and living together in Miami a la The Golden Girls, we will see them again.

The Madonna Thread
Reductive I should have visited this thread eons ago. Madonna is THE queen in my book. All-time favorite artist and every month she is my most played artist on my music. I've seen her 3 times (2008, 2019, 2024) and the 3rd time was the charm with her celebration tour. Amongst all the fabulous music (Ray of Light is my favorite album) I was SO pleasantly surprised and elated she did "Bedtime Story," "Bad Girl," and truly shocked she did the relatively unknown "Mother & Father" from her American Life album. Definitely my favorite concert I've ever seen.

The Devil Wears Prada 2
I love it but I also kinda hate it that so much is getting leaked now. Can't wait to see it though

I thought Paul was conceived around '94-95 when John returned to the priesthood? I seem to remember Paul's mother having a flashback where they showed John praying while at St. Luke's and they used footage from around that era. So he's around Will's age but also technically older than EJ but we're not gonna talk about EJ because present-day EJ and present-day Kristen look like they're the same age, as does Brady...

I'd say Brady's endgame should be Chloe. Though admittedly, Chloe and Kyle Lowder's Brady is my preferred choice. I hate how it seems like Brady is the eldest of the John/Marlena/Roman kids.

B&B: From Television City to Sunset Las Palmas Studios
Thank God. The current set is absolutely dreadful. Each day, the blue "sky" in the background looks more and more cheap.

She's also in her facetuning era. Speaking of Potomac, in the most recent Deadline article, they said Gizelle and Wendy will be making cameo appearances on Beyond the Gates soon.

Julie should be retired. Marlena should be retired. Kayla & Steve should be making trips to Sedona to find their retirement/vacation home. Don't you just love how people on soaps stay in their profession until their literal dying day.

Regardless of what happens, we'll be seeing him as Javi in Salem until at least 2027 at this point.

Thanks for that walk down memory lane because I remember so little about what happened on the show in the late 00's so the bulk majority of Nathan's story is forgotten by me. One side note: Keep The Bistro. We can wipe away memories of unimportant characters like Ava and Stefan with new memories. There needs to be options in Salem besides the Brady Pub. The Bistro, when the originally debuted it, had a bit of a different set-up, right? And it was the spot where reprogrammed Princess Gina pushed Jennifer off the balcony onto the Horton Town Square before the time jump, right? Small Bar could also be salvaged, but for gosh sakes given a proper revamp. It looks as clunky and tacky as GL's Main Street from back in the day. Whatever happened to Julie's breakfast restaurant (or at least it looked like something that catered to the early bird senior special crowd) which used to be Club TBD which used to be a coffee shop which used to be The Cheatin' Heart which used to be considered the seedier side of town? lol It'd be nice if they restored that to Club TBD or whatever it was when Julie and Chloe were co-owners. It offered up a variety of options and seemed to be *the* spot for New Years Eve for a few years.

I love how us fans get excited over a new set. Simple pleasures that we've been deprived of for the last 15 years.

Bravo's The Real Housewives of....
Grading both ATL as we wrapped it up and OC as it's starting out, they are "fair", but not necessarily "good" and certainly not "great". They both get a pass but nothing bombastic or memorable. I agree Angela turned out to be a great addition to who will call out a castmember, be it directly or through a matter-of-fact side comment. Kelly gets a pass for a second season, but Angela was definitely the breakout of the new cast. Britt is already a non-factor. Bye. Shamea's reunion performance was a disappointment to say the least. Phaedra basically had nothing to say or offer. Cynthia was the perfect role of the Friend Of peacemaker. Please bring her back; the show needs her.

BREAKING: Days of our Lives Renewed through Season 63 (2027-2028)
Yes, I'd love it if they offered up their back catalog that Ken Corday loves to mention. B&B does it via YouTube, but DAYS would be at the advantage to release old episodes in crystal clear condition via Peacock. Obviously, we're talking about a lot of episodes, but they could go the B&B route of uploading a few different years at a time, like start with 1983, 1993, 2003 and keep building. Something like that. That way, you're also keeping multiple generations of long-time DAYS viewers interested.

Oh I remember the episode. I wish it was still available on YouTube. They gave her a pampered bath while Stefano watched.

ALL: Speculation on the Future of Successful Daytime Soap Operas
I think Ron's writing from 2017 to this year did a lot of damage to that effect, but with a smaller audience that remains loyal/stuck in their habit, I don't think it took viewers away. From rubber masks and DID, a schlocky hokey Possession 2.0 to Body & Soul, it was very much camp and a soap parody. But we DAYS fans can always weather the storm.
