DAYS: Talk about a slap in the face!

[GBB]

From this week's SOD:

[Andre]

As always, I ask that people don't give spoilers.

[ilovesteveandkayla]

Have the fans been as upset over it NOT being used in the John & Marlena scenes over the past year also?

[GBB]

Andre, I'm so sorry. I wasn't thinking. I've edited the spoilers out of my SOD quote.

[Pest Spray]

It was sent in in the fall (after Sheffer took over), and it was a campaign. Some [food-like] campaigns have been taken by people at the studio before it reached the actors, so we assumed this happened with the bed campaign too.

[bellcurve]

I'm sorry, but no matter how "weird" people think it is to send in gifts and stuff to the show, that is just *SO* disrespectful to that fanbase. It doesn't even matter WHO they used the bedding for, Patch/Kayla, Bo/Hope, Lucas/Sami....the fact that FANS of JOHN/MARLENA sent the bedsheets in to be used for their couple and, instead, they use them for Steve/Kayla, that is just RUDE. And they know it.

Whoever used the cake/food fight analogy was dead on!

[ilovesteveandkayla]

It's a pretty horrible slap then. If it was only recently recieved by the show, there was no time for it to be thrown aside and forgetten about. This is a new low for Days.

[Andre]

Don't worry. It wasn't just you. They have been sprinkled about in the thread.

[Terpsichore]

How is it nuts? I thought it was kind of creative and fun. Maybe you're just jealous or something?

[Terpsichore]

Oh JOY!!! NOT!

[Terpsichore]

I'm confused by your post. You'd feel the same way, but getting bent out of shape about it is ridiculous?

[Terpsichore]

Why wouldn't they know? You seem to know a whole lot.

[bellcurve]

Not only should John/Marlena fans be offended for their bedding being used for Steve/Kayla, Steve/Kayla fans should also be offended that the show was too cheap to get them their own bedsheets and had to leech them from the J/M fanbase.

It's cheap and tacky. The set designers should be ashamed of themselves.

[Terpsichore]

Oh pleeeeze. The payla fans quit watching Days for 16 years and only came back because they did. I mean that's what I read them post all over the place. So that must mean that they only want the payla show... which is kayla crying "ohhh steeeeveeeee...." and Steve sobbing uncontrollably like a wussy little boy playing pirates of the caribbean.

[Ponz]

I don't "know". I was speculating...just like everyone else in this thread.
