The Megan Mullally show being cancelled has no effect I would think. It is syndicated but who knows.

I am glad campaigns are being started. Perhaps some letters should be sent to NBC making suggestions of how Passions can remain and what could be done to improve the situation there. God knows JER isn't listening. It probably would do nothing though. NBC probably figures they gave the show enough chances and if JER truly doesn't care and is just looking to get revenge on Days then there may be little we can go.

This is why JER needs to be gone and never hired again because if he is truly pissed and letting his baby go down the tubes just to get revenge on Days then he has no appreciation for the genre or it's fans. It would truly be appalling if that is the case.

JSF. let me know as wel what I can do. I am not very happy with Passions currently but I will do whatever I can to help.

I would not blame NBC for cancelling PSNS. NBC will not be responsible for the cancellation of PSNS.

James E. Reilly is the person responsible for the cancellation of PSNS.

Ugh, I wonder if he would even bother to wrap up storylines? It would be just like him to end the final episode on a HUGE cliffhanger to end all cliffhangers in every story and then never let viewers have any closure, LoL

The MM show is syndicated, so there is no effect on Passions fate or not. The show doesn't even air on NBC here, it aired on the CW I think and at like 4am....

True.....but its syndicator is NBC Universal Domestic Television Distribution and it airs on most NBC O&O's which would be freeing up the extra hour that they would "supposedly" be cancelling Passions for.

ya, I see your point. That was just the cynic in me speakin' out... If that's the case, then, as much as I loved Karen on W&G, see ya later Meghan....Passions is gotta come first.

Very true King. Wow, I agree with you again. I saw Passions on Tuesday and Theresa/Ethan/Gwen triangle is still going on. I loved Theresa and Ethan together. I got tired of waiting for JER to put them together permenantely. This triangle has been going on since day 1 of its premiere. It's ridiculous!

That's exactly my attitude. I don't want to see PASSIONS cancelled, nor am I happy at all with its current state, but right now, JER is giving me no reason to deem his show worthy of my time.

If JER is trashing PSNS to hurt Days, then I will make love to this man!

I have hated Days since they canned JER...and if he can get back at them in such a malicious way, then it's totally worth it! I never thought I'd be happy about the cancellation of PSNS, but I am!

Well I'm pissed at the Days fans/JER haters, so seeing them suffer makes me happy.

Okay WTF? I've always respected you RionPassions and I felt a kinship with you because of our devotion to Passions, but huh? Why are you hating on Days so much? We need to be supporting Passions not wishing cancellation on any show.

Remember all: Don't respond to the bait. That post is just trying to get people riled up, so let's not give the pleasure.

Like I said, I am mad that JER was canned from Days, so I want Days to suffer.

And I'm not a troll. I'm entitled to my opinion, no matter how outrageous!!

And when that crashed and burned, she hooked up with do-it-yourself author Dick Loudon, moved to a quirky little town in Vermont and became an innkeeper and part-time real estate agent (who always wore sweaters).

I get casting Deidre Hall since she was the closest NBCD had to a superstar by that point, but CZP and (RIP) Charleson were stretches for me. Were Susan Lucci and Melody Thomas Scott unavailable or something, lol?

Not that there wouldn't have been opportunities! For instance, they could've hired George Takei (there's your ST person) as one of Chao-Li's relatives, who was also after the Nazi treasure. Or they could've hired Anthony Daniels and Kenny Baker (a.k.a. C3PO and R2D2) as another team out for the gold (and comic relief for the storyline). Heck, they could've even hired none other "Blofeld" himself, Donald Pleasance, as a sworn enemy of Gustav and his father's, who will stop at nothing, including romancing poor Emma, to keep Riebmann from reclaiming the treasure.

I agree. Especially because it happened so damn quickly, with absolutely no breathing room for him, for Cathy, for all of us.
David Jacobs insisted that was the plan all along, but I doubt it. I think they had every intention of keeping Joshua around for years to come, but Michael Filerman and his ego ruined everything.
I'd still love for someone who was there to explain to us what the original intention was for Empire Valley; was it ALWAYS meant to be revealed as an underground spy network? Because, even if that wasn't how it started, it still feels as if they were leading up to something big. Otherwise, why invest so much time in another real estate development scheme? We'd already been there and done that with Lotus Point.

I feel like Days was always going to run into this problem regardless of writing. Days has done a horrible job establishing the next generation of leads. It has relied on Marlena, John, Bo, Hope, Kayla, Steve, etc., etc. for far too long. We end up at this point where most of the characters that get significant airtime are boring.
It seems to me the writing team is just too afraid to entirely revamp the show and are doing the bare minimum and coasting along with mediocre material. Because at least it's not as bad and offensive as Ron, right? Let's not rock the boat too much.

OMG I agree! I can't put my finger on it but there's something morbid about it. Same thing for gambling.
Big agree.
Honestly it's been campy from the get-go. If one enjoys it, they should make peace with the fact it's pure camp.
Kat's hat was giving Lindsey McKeon's Marah (GL) vibes when SATC's stylist Patricia Field joined the show.

Madison is such an underdeveloped character - she can be a genius doctor and then a teenager - and the whole relationship with Chelsea is treated as an afterthought. This show has too many characters and too few (talented) writers.
Extra comments:
Greg Vaughn is a pro and a stud, however I don't see where the story is with him and Nicole. There's no stakes, no tension. Mark my words: they will tease a big secret with Kial in the next few months, that's all they can do story-wise.
Speaking of love stories: how grand can these love stories be if the most exciting thing these couples can do is bounce between cafes and book a hotel room? If I see that hotel room one more time, I'll scream. They have a huge problem with sets.
I have liked Vanessa so far but I don't understand what they want to do with her.
While WF was a bust, I'm enjoying the new writing and I'm loving the direction lately. They're experimenting a lot - and succeeding.
Loving Leslie & Marcel.
I literally have no idea what's next for Ashley and Derek. Not that I'm worried at all, but they've been written into a corner. They were isolated before, they're even more isolated now.
I don't see any chemistry between Shanice & Ted. In fact, I don't see any chemistry between Keith's Ted and ANYONE.

I didn't remember her still being in Salem as late as 1979. But I agree, I thought she was absolutely gorgeous.

If you can ever visit the Paley Center for TV in NYC, they have a number of 1976 Days eps available in the viewing library, including Amanda during her cancer story

Yeah.
Amanda got pregnant, and (I think) she wasn’t sure if Chris or Greg was the father. But the pregnancy turned out to be ectopic and she had to terminate it. And it sounds like, after that, she decided to just make a go of her marriage to Greg and left Salem with him.
Which was too bad because from what I’ve read, Greg sounds like a real douche 😂😂😂
I wish more of this time period was available to see
