It was actually before that. I think he used it with Vivian in Paris. She kept mentioning a Rudolphu and then she found Stefano in bed in her room. I think that was 1996 around the time of Marlena being held in the cage. The specifics are a little foggy but I remember that name making it's first appearance when Stefano got caught up with Vivian and Ivan in Paris. Think that was an alias for him or something.

What?? Of course the "raters" aren't deliberately giving GUIDING LIGHT higher numbers than it deserves (If anything GL should be far higher up than it is.). GL has very steady numbers and has for years. If the cartoon fantasy and wooden acting of DAYS OF OUR LIVES is wearing thin for people and the numbers are showing that, then that's DAYS' fault, not GL's or the "raters."

Now that Days is rid of Farah Fath, Jason Cook and Kirsten Storms, I would say that it has one of the best casts -- if not THE best cast -- in daytime. It certainly has a canvas full of bigger names than any other soap, IMO.

Stephen Nichols and Mary Beth Evans are great. MBE has really stepped up her game over the last few months.

Martha Madison and Brandon Beemer are both fantastic.

Blake Berris and Rachel Melvin are the best young actors that the show has had since Patrick Muldoon and Christie Clark.

Julie Pinson is fabulous, as are Ali Sweeney and Bryan Dattillo. Lauren Koslow is a goddess and can do ANYTHING.

Deidre's still there. She sucks compared to what she once was, but she's far from awful, IMO.

Peter and Kristian... perfection.

Plus we have a few actors returning, all of whom are terrific, as well. Days cast, at the moment, is stellar, IMO!

I really get concerned when I see how far DAYS have sunken in ALL of the demographics. I mean, all soaps are slowly declining in the Household ratings, but no other show have sunken so far as DAYS have in all of the the demographics. Just compare their demographics with last years numbers. If DAYS would have kept its viewers from last year, they would now have been dominating and been #1 in all the demographics, both women 18-49, 18-34 and 12-17.

DAYS

Monday: 2.0/2,503,000

Tuesday: 2.0/2,500,000

Wednesday: 2.1/2,800,000

Thursday: 2.1/2,572,000

Friday: 2.0/2,543,000

I find this baffling. The actual wedding episode drew a +300,000 spike in total viewers (understandable) but almost none of these viewers tuned in the following day. And Wednesday's ep. ended on a great cliff-hanger! The only explanation I can offer is that unspoiled viewers saw the dreaded Sami/EJ picture and thought "Oh no, here we go again". But Thursday's ep. was just as good (if not better) than Wednesday's.

I know this is great news, I almost fell off my chair when I saw we placed in 6th for that and up over 100,000 in that category, also looks like the Men numbers are starting to go back up again, hopefully in a few weeks we will see those numbers even climb higher.

    • Shut up, Dante and Lois.  I actually don't mind this particular soap trope, but in the context of this storyline, it just feels forced and unnecessary. If anything, this Dante/Gio tension needed to begin months ago. Plus, this storyline, in general, isn't doing Lois any favors either.  Emma comforting Gio was really sweet though. It's definitely time for the two of them to have their first kiss. And, Joss playing Secret Agent Barbie will just never work.
    • Note to makeup - Smitty’s eyebrows, bad clamshell look.

    • Okay I can buy that when Brook Lynn was a teen.  Now she knows the child is a boy one would think she'd be slightly suspicious.  Then again, Gio looks nothing like either of them so maybe not lol.
    • I've been behind & just got caught up & the last 3 days were amazing!
    • Yeah.  The hot, poor bad boy with a chip on his shoulder but with a heart of gold was a common soap trope in the 80s

    • That's been an issue with me... the lack of a cohesive 'Have Not' crowd that has focus other than Leslie/Eva.   I would beef up Jan, Mona, Laura, Joey, and few other male characters.. and not just be out to overthrow the Duprees.. but co-existing and broadening the scope of the show since the show is called Beyond the Gates. I think the set up the show has with everything revolving around the Duprees will become predictable especially if they always win.   It would be like Victor Newman on Y & R for 40+ years.. always winning, hardly ever losing.   With MVJ/Guza.. both trained under that mindset... I fear that will happen.   I've always heard from a performer that is playing a character like Leslie/Dana that you have to find the victim/hurt beneath the surface in order to play a villain/villainess... and I think that's why I enjoy watching her.. because she brings so much more to the part than what the writers put on the page.
    • I figure that was really hard for Dom to do. I completely GET why they wrote it the way they did but I wonder if it was necessary. Meanwhile I have 2 really icky ideas in my head. Drew is going to blame Tracy KNOWING it was not her. Dante is going to blame Lulu.  After that, everyone else is going to be mad at Lois.  Tracy is going to double down on wanting to get rid of Sonny. Sonny's going to be more dug in to stay because he now has a new descendant. 
    • I can actually buy Brook Lynn being so self-absorbed and incurious that she never thought to question why her mom and grandma were so attached to Gio. 
    • It was overkill and the whole narrative Lois was too nice to the orphan kid when he was little, WHAT? Like Emma said no one thinks Gio is a troublemaker that gets 14-year-old kids drunk for fun. That being said, Lulu figured this Gio thing out in episode, but Brook Lynn never once questioned Lois and Gloria's attachment to a child that was the same age as the baby she gave up?  Ever?
