PLUS... PLUS... the only way I've ever seen Keera spelled is just like that. And also Kyra... like Kyra Sedgwick.

Ciara. Pronounce it. Put the letters in order. Ciii-AAAAAAA-ra. There's an A in the middle.

LOL!

Ok, I'll admit that the idiots that came up with this "Name the Bope Baby" idea are possibly completely dumb to the fact that Ciara is an Irish name. But because it is Irish, it would make sense for them to pronounce it correctly and in Irish it is pronounced KEER-A! Why Colonel is pronounced "kernel" I don't know, but that's the way it's pronounced so whatever, lol.

Just a thought.

I'm sorry but what's your problem? Please don't tell me to as you put it "shut up".

All the names in the poll were irish, the Brady's are as you know irish. ;) Ciara is really an irish name. In the irish language you don't always pronounce a name the way it's spelled. That is a fact!

Someone mentioned if it's pronounced Keera is spelled Kiara. Sorry but that's not true either, that's the english spelling not the irish.

> Here's < a link to one of many sites were irish baby names are listen. But on this one you can actually click on a button to hear how it's pronounced. Ohh and there's a detailed description written down about it too... see "kee + ra". Sorry but it's always good to check your facts. So when you say "Think, people, think!" maybe you're the one you should be thinking before you type things like this. Just a thought. Perhaps you've only seen Keera spelled like that is probably because you live in the US area, yes? I've lived in Ireland for quite a few years, Ciara is pronounced Keera. :) If they're going to call this child Sierra then there was no point of picking only irish names for the poll since Sierra with the spelling Ciara is not irish.

While your at the site for irish baby names, pick another name like Caoimhe ("kee + va") or Niamh ("nee + iv" or "neev"). Just so you see you can't always say it like it's spelled.

Yeah, I just bet they'll pronounce it the Irish way. :rolleyes:

Honestly, no matter how it's pronounced, I'll hate it no matter what. They might as well have just named her Skanky Ho Brady for what I'll be thinking every time I read her name.

Do you honestly think that the people at Days researched pronunciation? This is the same show that spelled it "Stephano" for the first part of the run and "Stefano" for the second half.

It's ugly either way.

I can't wait to have the last laugh though.

Kenny. Yes I do. Especially since I'm sure atleast they have some knowledge of the irish language, they're not that stupid. The show is not what it was back when Stefano was Staphano. If we still had JER then yes, I would have expected nothing more then Sierra. Hogan said repeatedly there should be some reality on the show. This is reality.

If you do get to have the last laugh, then you should feel really stupid. Sorry but that's the truth. They picked all irish names for the poll, there's no point in doing that if you're not going at it the right way. If it's pronounced in any other way the Keera it's a freakin joke and a mockery against Éire. It's not that hard for the TPTB to check it up. Just google it and you'll get quite a few links to set it straight. Simple as that. Sierra is more an english name and could be spelled with a C, but the it would be spelled Cierra or Ciera, not with an A in the middle. Source

But if this is going to continue to make you upset then go ahead. I don't get how you can keep arguing when you have the facts right there. d010.gif

Anyway. It's a freakin name on a soap. It's actually quite funny how involed you are about this when you're so wrong. I don't care how DAYS are gonna prononce it. You stated it's prononced Kiara, and that's just not true. That's what I was talking about. Who cares what the TPTB are gonna do. Hopefully they'll have some sense though.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
    • @janea4old Your detailed explanation and delving into the psychology and motivations is no doubt the opposite of what we will see onscreeen. As @ranger1rg stated we will get a few scenes and some sketchy explanations. Like the adoption of Aria, most of it will take place off screen.
    • I'm suddenly fearful that DAYS is going to pull a Flowers-for-Algernon stunt and Bo's progress will be reversed.  While @te. is stuck on Abe's tiny bedroom, I can't stop thinking of the size of Bo's huge hospital room.
    • Okay, why are Paulina and Abe sleeping like that?!  I'd take a screen grab if I wasn't lazy, but come on.
