Bite Your Tongue!

You would sacrifice Alice, Maggie, Victor, Marlena, Doug, Jack, Caroline, Roman & Abe just to keep Austin & Carrie?? :blink:

Linn, Marlena was part of that whole group who got killed. So if she wasn't brought back to life, she would be dead too right now and wouldn't even be on our screens. Just pointing that out.

My thoughts exactly. Those are all 9 long-time vets we're talking about. To get rid of all of them and only keep Austin & Carrie.... that's ridiculous.

If all the 9 left, then DAYS may start to get unrecognizable.

Yes, it does seem that way, Krypton.

Amen to that, brother. I'm still trying to put that damn SSK story out of my head and forget it ever existed. :D

Had the serial killer victims stayed dead, they wouldn't have been able to bring back Carrie and Austin, because Days' rating would have been around 1.6 or 1.7.

The dead included actors with huge fanbases and beloved veterans of 20 years plus. Suggesting that the entire group should have stayed dead so that Carrie and Austin could remain on canvas is patently absurb and biased. And the implication that keeping Matt off the canvas would have the made Missy MORE likely to re-sign with the show is also a ludicrous argument. Jennifer is not being cut for budgetary reasons but because Missy was alienated so much by the show, she CHOSE to leave. As Missy has publicly stated, the treatment of Matt was the main cause of that alienation.

I do not understand your logic, either. Who is to say the ratings wouldn't have tanked EVEN WORSE had the dead not been brought back. It's not like Reilly had any brilliant stories planned for the surviving characters

    • I loved watching Shanice hand Leslie her ass and finally shutting her up. It was so good. I also love Martin & Smitty's family.  Anita has to have some sort of plan giving Leslie the tickets to mail for Winterfest. She has to be setting her up for a fall. It's pretty obvious to me Vernon is not cheating with Sharon. I think Sharon is helping him with his terrible singing voice for Winterfest. I still believe Bill & Dani are endgame but I love Dani & Andre too. I am definitely enjoying this story. And making Hayley a black widow is a nice twist.
    • Sorry for the spam. Wasn't sure where to put this, it's from Tony Geary's husband's IG. Tony watching Genie and Maurice on Mo's show.
    • This show is really trundling along BTW. When is someone going to show up to slit Beastmaster's throat or crack the whip on metrosexual Sidwell? (BTW, openly presenting this cheery bon vivant as casually bisexual would at least be something vaguely diverting.) At least kill Brennan by year's end. I'm bored.
    • She told Vanessa to "DOUBLE her offer" on the Jarvis house.  The Jarvis family accepted the doubled price.  Assuming the house has an appraised value of $2,000,000, she's theoretically paid the Jarvis family $4,000,000 for the house.  The bank would loan Leslie 80% of the appraised value ($1,600,000), and Leslie had to pay the balance with cash at closing --- $2,200,000.  She only had ONE million.  Where the hell did she get the rest?!  And now she's got contractors working on the house all day & half the night.  Who's paying THEM?  I keep thinking all this will crash around her.  Either that or the writers have absolutely no idea the limits of a million dollars.  Sounds like a "lot of money", but it obviously ain't when we look at Leslie's spending since she got that million dollar check in August.

    • Vernon is an idiot. Why would he have Sharon in the same hotel that Leslie is staying at?
    • Yes, that out of the blue return was odd. Maybe GG found a forgotten clause in the contract he signed when he was wooed to ABC and they were forced to take him back! Like George Reinholt he talked about the contract that promised him primetime roles. But it was loaded in the networks favor. I think it was Gloria Loring that re-signed at Days on the promise of primetime opportunities, but that was all it was- she was put up for guest spots and TV movies but not necessarily guaranteed that she get the role.
    • I still am baffled by why Monty brought back stunt hire Gerald Gordon in the early '80s out of nowhere for like a year. I haven't found anyone who can come up with a thing he did in that second stint of note.
    • It's interesting to watch this having watched The Doctors. I'm not sure I'm seeing that much of a difference in the characters Gerald Gordon and Anna Stuart played on The Doctors and what they're playing here.
    • I keep forgetting a huge chunk of that year was written by scabs. You're probably right, because by the time the strike was over, they were likely planning an exit for Alan's character as it must have been obvious by then that Bernau was not going to return. If he was still there, it's also doubtful they would have approached MZ and MG about coming back. Wild.
