I think the only unsalvagable part of the current younger set on Days is Jeremy. The rest isn't nearly as bad as the old set of younger characters. Jett doesn't really bother me, and Marcus Patrick is decent enough. Stephanie is really two-dimensional, but I prefer this version to old!Stephanie, especially during the period where she was constantly whining about the fact that her uncle wouldn't mount her. Shelley Hennig has been competent enough as Stephanie; I mean, they haven't really given her character any dimensions, so I think she's doing a good enough job. Nick and Chelsea have become two of my favorite characters; I just hate how they keep throwing obstacle after obstacle at them. It's gotten old. I wish they'd give Max something to do; it seems that, outside of his short-lived relationships with Abby and Mimi, he's been given nothing to do.

I don't really mind the Teen Scene on Days right now. Jeremy is annoying. No doubt of that. But you always have to have a character thats sketch or "bad".

Lol a few months of now Jeremy will have redeemed himself and everyone will magically love him. Thats Daytime for you.

Just think of where Chelsae was a few months/a year ago. I know I hated the b*tch. Especially after the Zach incident.... :(

I can't stand the new Stephanie. I suspect it's more than just the really bad writing.

I did really enjoy the previous Stephanie. That actress was a writer's dream because she was so unique & different you could go all kinds of places with her.

This one is a dumbed down Valley Girl who shrieks and trounces around having no real purpose but to declare that she wants to have sex & she wants to party party party. I'm yawning as I type this. That is so not what I can stand watching.

Actually, 3 of the actors could be placed in the "thirtysomething" category. Marcus Patrick (Jett) is actually 33, Trevor Donovan (Jeremy) is 29 in a few months; and Denise Boutte (Jett's fiancee, Danielle), although she de-aged herself 5 years on IMDB, is actually 30 as well.

    • Ewww....I love MKA, but GL wasted her returns. I do think she sleeps with Ross, or gets darn close.   So...against my better judgment, I slid into '86 to find Vanessa confessing to Henry about being pregnant...and it's NOT William Roerick, DAMN IT. It's some damn temp Henry. But then it gets weirder because I'm listening in German, and it's the same voice fooling me. 
    • I hope the writers understand how pathetic and stupid Willow looks in order to continue this madness with Drew. Willow has become a laughingstock. Lucky didn't say goodbye to Aidan? Pathetic!!!
    • I really enjoyed the first half of season 9. It was dark but Emma, Angela, Lance and Richard were front and center.  Pilar and Frank were finally interesting.  Charley, Michael and Genele came in and caused a lot of drama.  It was even sexier. I also liked the new into theme music. Then the second half of the season went to hell.
    • Something that I love about Dani is that despite her issues with Bill, she's always encouraged her daughters to have a relationship with him. I also believe that she does have a great amount of love for him which is why she is so hurt that he's sick. I've loved them including her in his recovery. It feels real and their chemistry is just insane so any chance for more of it is welcomed. That would be the perfect karma. Kat needs to learn boundaries and not be so impulsive, but I still feel like the Duprees are going to clear Leslie. How? I don't know, but that's what I think is going to happen. I feel like she'll get some kind of blackmail over them which will cause them to clear the slate. Of course the show never goes where you expect so I'm sure they'll do something different but I'm definitely curious how she will manage this.
    • Darn you Jane Elliot...you have me crying...that's how superb her acting is in these scenes with Gio. Speak on it.
    • The story has been glossed over and taken over by the lunacy redux. I wonder if they noticed how poorly the ratings are with the Liam story and went all lunacy.
    • @soapfan770Thank you so much for posting that! I know the final season of Falcon Crest is controversial but I thought it was a fantastic swing that mostly worked. The only thing that would've made it better is if they had more money which hopefully could've kept Emma full season. I feel like that was her strongest arc since season one and I wish she had remained so we could've seen her as a mother. I also wish they had more Angela but that was obviously out of their control. As different as it was, I felt season 9 to be very true to the initial gothic roots of the series.
    • You know what? I was just thinking of Klymaxx the day before you typed this and chuckled. I do love how it keeps twisting and turning, getting juicier (Eva hiding everything, knowing her mama did it only for Kat to get the goods, thinking it's Eva...not helped by her hope that it IS Eva) rather than contrived.    This. AM's acting as Eva is just so reminiscent of SMG's version of Kendall on AMC for me. She's totally going to go on to bigger and better things. She has so much nuances in her scenes.    Yeah, I really like that they played the beat of Ty wondering if Jessica was using him. I wouldn't have minded that, but we have done it before so I guess it is nice to see it is not a trick. I do wonder where it will go from here.   Thank you for the tip on Chelesa. I'm already intrigued on the stuff with Madison so Hmmmm.
    • Leslie is going to get off because of Kat.
    • If a soap actor or behind the scenes figure was roasted at any point in time, who would you have at the main table? This topic came about when I imagined a Friends episode (Joey, of course, would bomb at roasting). The Roast of Deidre Hall, circa 1997 Roastmaster: Drake Hogestyn Roasters: Jed Allan, Wayne Northrop, Joseph Mascolo, Eileen Davidson, Christie Clark, Alison Sweeney, Ken Corday, James E. Reilly, Andrea Hall, Jane Elliot, James Reynolds, Shannen Doherty, Wilford Brimley, and Frances Reid.
