Days of Our Lives: December 2021 Discussion Thread
Same. DAYS has been such a mess for too long. Ken Corday believes he's honoring his parents' legacy with this crap, but he isn't. Not by a longshot. If I were taking it over as HW and/or EP, I'd do the most radical thing ever: I'd phase out the Hortons (what's left of them, anyway), the Bradys, the DiMeras and everyone else; and I'd rebuild the show, "from the ground up," with new characters and families, in the hopes of getting back to family-centered, character-driven drama that isn't bogged down by decades of simply rotten storytelling.

I think the only type of story that Harding Lemay wasn't capable of writing was a YOUNG love story. Lemay himself once said that he found it difficult to write for younger actors, because they didn't have the life experience that their older colleagues had to draw on (although, he did cite Ray Liotta (ex-Joey) as a notable exception).

I think PS would blow her entire stack at the thought. So, of course, I think they should do it.

I really and truly believe the (soap) world would be better off if he WEREN'T cast on another show, but if he just HAD to be on THIS show, then I say bring him on as a recast for a reformed Jeremy Horton.

ICAM. Kevin and Laura just don't work for me either.

All I can say is, I'm not a fan of BD's, not because he isn't hunky, but because he bores me to tears.

ALL: Couples you are surprised never reconciled for good
It's just as well they didn't reconcile. Thanks to Tony Geary and Bob Guza, I never want to see that happen. Laura (and Genie) deserves better.

And I could see him pulling up in a Terminix van and asking if it's okay to access my backyard.

Characters you were surprised to see again
He probably SHOULDN'T have come back either. Every time he did come back, Stefano just became that much more ridiculous.

No, they shouldn't. In fact, no one should cast or recast Billy Miller in anything ever again.

In hindsight, what moment would have been the perfect ending to your soap (before things got awful)?
I would have ended DAYS much, much sooner. Like, say, around 1991? Same goes for AMC.

Agree. Many writers like to throw these kinds of curveballs at us, don't they? Even if Lucas being Sami's abductor is supposed to be a Twist You Never Saw Coming, we should be able to go back, look at what led us to that revelation, and see how it was all logical and inevitable. But I don't see that here. I just see another sorry-ass HW tryna surprise the audience without giving logic a second thought. God, I hate these damn shows. And the Chloe/Brady/Philip mess should end with Philip dead (or 'dead'), Chloe unable to remember what happened, Brady taking the rap, and Kate being revealed as the surprise murderer (or 'murderer,' since it's very possible either Victor or Vivian, or Victor AND Vivian, could sneak Philip off somewhere to heal from his wounds and get psychological help). Did his fans send Ken Corday a new set of golf clubs or something?

Having Kate kidnap Chloe and Sami so her sons could forget about them would have made more sense.
