What are some of NBCD's dropped storylines? If you have any idea why the story was dropped please include. You can include how you would have tied it up also

The Brady/DiMera feud and John's parentage on DAYS. Back in 2002, it looked like B&C were finally going to explain everything, but of course, Corday just had to interfere, and well, the rest is history...

Oh yeah! I was really pissed that we never learned the meanings of those gifts that Stefano left in his will! That was awesome! B&C should have never been fired...

What was in the basement of Jonesy's townhouse in the freezer?

What was in the tarp at the jungle compound?

What happened to the 5 Marlena clones Stefano sent out around the US?

What happened to Hattie trying to take over Marlena's life, and now looking identical to her?

What happened to Jonah Carver and Wendy Reardon, and who was the father of Wendy's baby?

What was Eric Brady's secret that kept him out of Salem for years?

What happened to Sami blackmailing Kate about her past as a hooker and destroying her reputation?

The way JER has set up "Passions," either no story will have been dropped by the ending or he will just choose to leave some loose threads, because the secrets are all inter-woven, and it would be an INCREDIBLE domino-effect if he chose to expose all of them. It would also leave us scratching our heads on who really belongs together!

Man, the last few months have the potential to be PHENOMENAL -- and bittersweet. :(

That one actually was put to rest. Sami gave Victor her copies of the pictures of Kate's days as a hooker in exchange for Victor transferring Austin to Hawaii back in 2002.

That one was resolved. I don't remember there details but it was some lame 3 episode arc. His college nemisis came to Salem and Eric told Shawn Sr. the 'truth'. It was swept under the rung and was obviously a re-write from the original plans.

Yeah it was something about a girl drinking too much or something. Shows how good it was...I am a big Days fan and even I don't remember it. I still think Eric was going to turn out gay or something much bigger was going to happen.

There are so many dropped stories that I can't even list them or count them. The one that bugs me most is the Brady/Dimera feud. That thing is too huge to keep being swept under the rug.

I agree. If there's one plot that I hope is resolved before DAYS leaves the air (hopefully a long time from now), it's the damn Brady/DiMera feud, LOL.

About 5 years ago Kate was bleeding out of her vadge, I guess that problem went away or maybe she got some adult diapers.

That was explained KBT.

I remember Kate collapsed and Roman took her to a clinic. She had some sort of tumor or sist. Whatever it was, it wasn't cancerous and she was given meds and sent on her way. I thought it was going to be more at the time though.

Passions has dropped everything only to be picked up several years later to drag on some more and then it gets a piss poor "ending"...

Some examples:

WHO SHOT JULIAN!!!!!!!! This should have put the show on the map! Sadly, it didn't!

The dead body under the sheet in Sheridan's nightmares. Reilly's 3,000 re-writes of that was hideous. First it was a man who, after death, underwent a sexual re-assignment to become a woman..But wait, that was not enough, it was then discovered to be the sister of a dead woman who was never dead. GMAFB!

The Evian child. What a joke this turned out to be. Who is the Evian's kid? And why would anyone care now?

Why Chad was obsessed with his sister. Instead, he moves onto a relationship with a man? The character didn't need to be a deviant. Had a real writer penned this, Chad's behavior in regards to Whitney would have been explained, thus possibly redeeming the character.

The good vs evil battle. When Charity left, it should have been on!

RealHank and what he did in his past.

Sheridan learning she gave up Luis for a lying husband who possibly stole a kid? That was the real story. Not turning her into the piece of filth that is onscreen now. Sheridan should have found out...then be forced to deal with her bad choices. Not become a blonde Theresa! That's just disgusting!

Chad's parents??? Need I say more?

So many lost opportunities just so the audience can see obsession, nontriangles, rape, beastiality, incest, plot driven trash, character destruction, repeated dialogue... Reilly had a winner with Passions, but because he's a loser, the show can't get off the air quick enough for me!

I still want to know when Ethan will find out that Gwen knew of Theresa's rape and did nothing.
