DAYS: Friday, June 29


Recommended Posts

During the weekly marathon, usually they will re-show the Thursday and Friday episodes from the week before so they can just carry through with the last 5 consecutive episodes.

As for the daily airings, usually they just show something Soapnet related. There definitely won't be any classic episodes though. I would love for some but they never did it before and we would've heard something by now.

Belle and Philip were very good, but I do wish that Days would just move on from this triangle. It's been going in some form or another with various actors for too many years. I've generally preferred Phelle to Shelle, but have always expected Shelle to win. So if Shelle MUST be the rooting couple, please just stick them together and give Philip someone else... preferably Abby Deveraux.

Anna's mere existence continues to make Chris more interesting than he has been since he decided to pretend that he is Roman.

It was nice to see Lumi free of interruption. While making one or both babies EJ's might make for a more complicated story, that's not the way Days usually goes. It could have had a more complicated story by making Claire Philip's, Ciara Patrick's, the Willow baby Shawn's, Zack John's, Theo Brandon's, etc., but it likes to have the baby biologically fathered by the man the woman considers her true love. And that's fine with me-- I'm good with happy endings on a soap. Even if Sami does end up having a baby not biologically fathered by Lucas, I can't fathom her picking names that Lucas hates, like Santos/Colleen. She doesn't want a family with EJ; she wants a family with Lucas. She expects to raise her children with Lucas even if EJ gets every other weekend and two weeks in the summer. Actually, I took Tom as a sign that that baby will belong to Lucas, since I don't see Days giving Tom Horton's name to a baby born from a rape by a man who has attacked so many people Tom loved.

    • Same. I love like a lot of the other characters she has so much potential and possibilities. I also love she is not a shrinking violet. And most definitely not perfect.   Lol. Okay, I give you that. But I'm a horror fan so I ain't hating on her for being one, too.    Well like I said when this story started...those kind of backrooms DO exist even now. The workers even run to get the gamblers food orders so they can completely focus on losing all their money the game. I appreciated Randy clarifying that the other day when Mona was asking him about the machines. Of course, that said...I guess the question is if we will see the rest of the casino.    Same, but especially the bold.
    • One of the things that I found refreshing about Ryan's Hope when I discovered it on SoapNet was that for the most part, Delia was the only female character whose life seemed to revolve around getting and keeping a man, and it was clearly viewed as a character flaw. Because by the 2000s, I feel like fully half the female characters on the soaps at that time were obsessed with trying to snare some vacuous lunkhead. Up that to like 85% of them if we're talking Days Of Our Lives or Passions.
    • Yes, a few months before Wanda De Jesus, actually. Shortly after the Dobsons took over again, Rosa just magically reappeared as if she'd just been offscreen in the Capwell kitchen for the past four years. I just started watching this from the beginning again last year and I will agree with past posts that there really does seem to have been a reboot of sorts in January 1985. To me, it seemed like the four performers who really seemed to set the tone for the new wittier, more sophisticated direction were Nicolas Coster, Louise Sorel, Lane Davies and Judith McConnell.
    • You're right about the potential many of those stories could have had. The execution was more of an issue. Something never clicked for me in Angelique's present-day adventures - some of them I actually found very irritating due to the slanted writing and her voice being overshadowed. It took the Leviathan story for me to enjoy her in that timeline. I wish they had just left Peter/Vicki to the past and used that to inform who Vicki became when she returned, instead of bringing him back.
    • Thanks @slick jones I appreciate the interviews you share.
    • Download isn't working for me either.  With that said, thank you for all the work you have done!
    • @P.J. Well, it wasn't her first award. I am sure she has written books, and spoken at colleges, and gotten some notoriety from it. Most importantly, she is fulfilled. Something Dani is not.  @Paul Raven Exactly, it does not ring true to me. Dani has that big personality because she is masking pain. And she probably clung to Bill because he made her feel smart and important (at one point). There are ways to add more layers to her.
    • Absolutely. And IIRC Rose Alaio has mentioned production having it out for her.
    • That goes back to Chance/Abby-there was way more to explore with their marriage but the first problem that pops up that's pretty much it-moving on. And Kyle/Lola, years worth of story dropped so he can fall back in love with Summer. Sharon/Rey married off with no plans for their future so they kill him off. And so on...
