Days of Our Lives: March 2022 Discussion Thread
I re-watched DAYS and somewhat confused about illegal drugs. Heroin is an opioid, right? Wouldn't that make you feel calm, or chill? I don't too much about heroin addicts or users, but I've never heard outbursts when they use it. Coke and Meth-heads, sure. I'm just thinking about that Mr. Coates guy which I'm predicting this is a stupid murder mystery, but this is more about heroin. Do heroin addicts or users have crazy-ass outbursts on an opioid?

DAYS: Fire Jamey Giddens!!
Interesting, so I sort of had it right with the roles and responsibilities. Sort of. Despite one's writer position, it's still a group effort. Overall, it needs to be cohesive. I don't feel that whenever I watch the show in general.

ARTICLE: ‘Days of our Lives’ Head Writer Posts Query: “Tell me your job so I can tweet at you how you’re doing it wrong”
Oh, dear. Weirdly, it made me feel like I was re-visiting January 6th and former politician Rob Weiner's campaign at the same time. 🤔

DAYS: Fire Jamey Giddens!!
Sorry, but can someone breakdown the roles and responsibilities of a breakdown writer vs. a head-writer? O*Net does not help at all. I would say going down the titles, the head-writer writes the stuff while the breakdown writers polishes it up a little bit??? Like I said ... I tried O*Net. I'm coming up a dollar short. In my field of expertise, it would be interesting to hear about the R&R's. Not so much about the KSAO's.

Days of Our Lives: March 2022 Discussion Thread
The dentures are too obvious for me, but at the same token, I'm an Eileen fan. Always. I've got nothing against Stacy at all. I've watched her in video interviews and she's really charismatic with a great sense of humor to go with it. So no, I won't ever speak ill of her at all. She's really effin' funny! She's just not Eileen is all and that level is hard to compete. So yes, I agree with your opinion (the character of Susan that is), but then again, Stacy has vanished here and there and then she comes back and then she disappears and comes back again with her cartoony lines to serve as a symbolic nature of fearful intimidation. Whatever. She kind of reminds of the actress who played Carmen Santos on Guiding Light. God, I swear that woman annoyed me. Not because she was an antagonist, but because I knew her presence would always be short-lived and pathetic. Perhaps, if we have had more scenes between Susan and Johnny as grandmother and grandson before Satan 2.5 or Satan 3.0? That, we haven't seen as it would have been fresh and nice to see that relationship happen organically. Weirdly, I see Stacy as Susan. But, she's no Queen Kristen Dimera slathered in tattoos. No ma'am and no sir.

I kinda saw Will and Sonny like the gay comic superheroes that were on SNL? But, instead of the Mighty Mouse theme, I'll replace it with Will and Sonny: "Here THEY come to save the DAYYYYYY! Will and Sonny are on their WAYYYY!" Thank you, Brady for your phone call or text messages to slay the gay treacherous evil you see before your very eyes. And you call upon these two superheroes.

DAYS: Fire Jamey Giddens!!
LOL! I actually saw a tweet from him not knowing who he was. It was something referencing Belle being possessed or whatever. Or, is it JoSatan doing his playful trickery to be Belle. Then, my sidebar showed his profile and I saw his credentials. #Gulp. I seriously don't know these people and I really don't care. Although, isn't David Kreizman a breakdown writer for DAYS as well? Wouldn't it be kewl if David Kreizman still had some Peapack, New Jersey memorabilia like a Port-o-Potty from the public park Guiding Light used when they shot on location? Look. I know David was a writer and all, but there is power in the power of a black Sharpie - especially when you have the cast and crew sign their names on it. You know, kind of like the way high school students sign each other's yearbooks. "Spring 2008 in Peapack, New Jersey has been an absolute blast! Enjoy your summer! See you in September!" ~ Friends4Ever, Grant Alexander Autographed Port-o-Potty's can be fun! They're all big and light! They're fun and frisky and have that lingering midnight lavender nightingale scent?

Will & Grace Revival
Yeah, watching the revival was not what I expected at all. I never understood David Schwimmer's character and Grace seemed more pathetic each season. Do I still watch it? Yeah. I live for Karen. 😃

Peacock TV
On the DAYS Discussion thread, I tried Peacock Premium, lol! However, that was short-lived as I can download that stuff and upload on my PLEX in no sweat. But, all the movies they consider as as "Premium" I already have. What's the point? I think maybe if they offered a "Live NBC TV" channel, it might make things different. Maybe?

Days of Our Lives: March 2022 Discussion Thread
Is there any character on the show that can grab a thick biology textbook? Not so much take it and whack Sarah upside the face with it or anything, but go to the chapter where it goes over the layers of skin (e.g., hypodermis, dermis, epidermis) and the aging process. No, seriously. I don't know much about Renee. Perhaps she was nice. I dunno. Age-wise (and this is not an ageist comment), can't they just say something like: "Going over what we've just learned about the skin and the aging process, if you were actually Renée DuMonde, you would look like this ..." And grab someone like Maggie. That's her mom, right? Would Maggie and Renée DuMonde be around the same age? Secretly, I wish Tony was a pervert and braggin' about how he's tappin' dat ass like a genuine pimp dawg.

Ohhhh! Leo's the smart-ass who would probably be throat-punched if he if he brought that flamboyant sh!t up in Marjorie Taylor Greene's congressional district. 😆 That was not meant to come across as hateful or political, but I weirdly envision the Leo's of the world in all the sociological bubbles that exist where tolerance is not so kind.

Days of Our Lives: February 2022 Discussion Thread
LOL! All this Carson Boatman/Ron Ron Carlivati talk, lol! Not that I would know, but imagining Eric Martsolf feeling all out of sorts as he's not a twink and Robert Scott Wilson ifeelin' the competition against Carson as he's no longer the "new kid on the block" anymore would be a riot. But super-creepy if Ron C. would act like that. Ew. I need to get caught up as the last thing I remember was Abby telling Stacy she put sleeping pill remnants in her breakfast smoothie and it was enough to tranquilize a horse. Before you know it, Stacy was probably unconscious for a nanosecond as Abby didn't get that far away at all.

Days of Our Lives: February 2022 Discussion Thread
You know what? I forgot about the Winter Olympics, lol! I really did! I think I was trying to tune in on Peacock this past Friday, and as soon as I opened the app, I got one of those enticements to switch back to Peacock Premium which was a waste for me as I can easily download their shows if I wanted to. Hey, I'll gladly pay for streaming services like Paramount+ because I definitely use it for sure. But, I went with Peacock Premium for the DAYS Christmas Spectacular or whatever the hell it was at that time. My mind went completely aghast when I saw my Queen Kristen Dimera in Jordache jeans. At that moment, I realized that the Days Christmas Spectacular was not worth Peacock Premium. I paid for it because I wanted to see Eileen, but that's just me. Anyway, going back to my original post, I plum forgot about the Winter Olympics. Then, I looked at the DAYS tab and saw their latest episode aired on February 2nd and I think I watched it? Usually when DAYS is preempted like that (especially for two weeks), there's supposedly this explosive cliffhanger of sorts. Trying to think of February 2nd, nothing really stood out to me. So, the good news is that I didn't miss much of anything and that I could binge-watch on Ozark instead. Now that DAYS is back, what do you like? What keeps you coming back for more? For me, it's gotta be that Suite '227' sign whenever Paulina opens the door.

All I remember about Paris is her singing the national anthem at a Dodgers game and some dude was on his smartphone in the background while she was singing. Trust me, I don't understand the infatuation either. I don't get it.

Well, on the other hand, maybe this isn't Craig after all and we're all making a mountain out of a molehill. Maybe it's the evil machinations of Philip Kiriakis himself wearing a mask to DUH! Look like Craig.😆

Days of Our Lives: January 2022 Discussion Thread
I never understood Craig and Nancy's relationship from the very beginning. At first, I remember the actors had a "MEATY" storyline with Craig wanting to be Chief of Staff or whatever, but later on, the two only served as Chloe's backup choir. Craig coming out as bisexual or gay is believable I suppose, but the thing is that I don't care. Craig is not a main character on the show and we're not really "invited" as the character explores who he is or what he's struggling with on an emotional level. We're not invited to this "journey" if that makes any sense. And yet, at the same token I'm relieved not to see it as the storylines last as long as a New York minute that's it's difficult to keep track. Then again, is it? Because all I see is cheating, kidnapping, and wearing a face mask. Can't think of the name of Lani's bio dad or how long the character will be on the show, but I sense that it will be short-lived and I'm predicting murder.

Days of Our Lives: January 2022 Discussion Thread
I am amused at the hypocrisy, lol! Satan breaks things off with Chanel and then Chanel is absolutely devastated and then to show her devastation, Chanel sleeps with Ali. Satan makes a pass at Gabi in which Ali sees which makes Ali inform Chanel of what she saw. Then, both Chanel and Ali are like: "Johnny is such a jerk!" I guess lesbian affairs do not equivocate to the laws of heteronormativity I suppose.

Believe it or not, I appreciated Paulina's facial expressions in that episode. The moment she closed that bedroom door after seeing Chanel and Allie in bed together, it looked as if she just let out a soft stinky burp coming out of nowhere and smelling like ranch Doritos. Seriously. I kid you not.

Satan is not making the right decisions if the plan this second go round is trying not to be so conspicuous about it. If he wants Ben and Ciara's baby so badly, then he needs to be wiser about it and quit wearing red. Perhaps on several occasions, he could zip the lip. Otherwise, it's gonna be John Black coming to the rescue with rosary beads and he's he's gonna slam Johnny's ass to the wall, tie him up on the bed with some rope, and have a jet-lagged Eric perform a flashback family exorcism again. Just sayin'.

I agree with you that she could be used less, but I was hoping the vomit would've spewed all over Marlena's face. Hey, if you gotta vomit, at least do it right.
