So, I normally wouldn't be bringing what happens on a fan board, here. But, I think it explains why most fans don't have it in their hearts to feel bad that John and Marlena aren't front and center. And unfortunately, it just reflects badly on Dee. So, Stephen Nichols posts on his blog about the positive changes on the show since Ed Scott. And not only does this board post what Nichols posted on their board, but bash him, accusing him of kissing up, and say all sorts of nasty things. As if Deidre Hall didn't kiss up to JER for years, even when he was killing off half the cast, and beloved veterans like Suzanne Rogers were losing their job! Hypocracy kills me.

I've seen some Bo/Hope fans bash John/Marlena and Steve/Kayla.........

I've seen some John/Marlena fans bash Bo/Hope and Steve/Kayla.........

I've seen some Jack/Jen fans bash John/Marlena and Bo/Hope..............

I've seen some Steve/Kayla fans bash John/Marlena, Bo/Hope...............

Like you said, it's a fanbase board and this kind of behaviour happens all the time. It's expected when you have these fanbases who only watch for their couple and to hell with anyone else.

This is why I prefer show fans than fanbase fans.

Character bashing is fine. I can't stand the actor bashing. Regardless of which fan group is doing it to which actor. And it is too bad because Stephen Nichols does his blog for all fans of Days - not just the Steve fans or Steve and Kayla fans.

And this is what hurts soaps Toups. All the fanbase wars and jealousy. If the writers and producers even out the supercouples there would be no war. Of course the storylines would have to be equally great too. :lol:

Right, and that is what makes me so angry about this. It reflects so poorly on Deidre Hall. And then I wonder how that effects how Deidre and Stephen Nichols get along. Because you know this will get back to Stephen Nichols. With all of the negativity surrounding DAYS right now, it's truly awful when an actor, trying to be hopeful about the show, is bashed like this. Really disgusting.

Love your generalization that most fans don't feel bad that J&M aren't front and center. I know many fans who have stopped watching or are barely watching becasue J&M haven't had a story. I guess I have as much right to speak for other fans as you do.

Sorry, there is no excusing the fact that on the offical website of an actress, her fans said horrible things about an actor who was only sharing positive things about his workplace. One person said that Mr. Nichols needed kneepads...hmm, I wonder what she was suggesting.

Frankly, I think Steve (separately) and Kayla (separately) are a waste of time and need to be written out. Steve especially is a huge waste. Kayla could be worked into a story. Steve was a favorite of mine long years ago, but he has not grown and is a total flop in my view. The actor is very nice, just don't like his character on the show.

      There was a scene in the past week or two with Leslie looking at some papers and mementos, which included an invitation or souvenir from Alan's memorial service or funeral -- it was dated as November 2024. Me just guessing but it seems to me that Martin's nightmares about the accident are from something longer ago than November.

      I felt for Ted early on but as the story unfolded it has changed my opinion on him. To know he was cheating while his wife was struggling to give him a baby is a lot to deal with. Plus, this happened ages ago and still he's paying Leslie off and threatening her to leave town.  What really caused me to lose him in this episode was how even though he was busted, he still refused to take responsibility and come clean and the way he talked to Martin and Eva was terrible. To tell Smitty he better get Martin away from him when that is his SON who he used to cover up his affair? That is true dog behavior. Ted seems upset he got caught but I'm not seeing the remorse I would need to want Nicole to forgive him. I'm curious how I'll feel after Ted gets to talk to Nicole but I need him to fix it with the rest of the family as well.

      I'm sorry. I well remember Jake doing Doris but I have no independent memory of the story around it.  Krystle with a K Lake, sure, both Tony the Tuna stories & NOT.  And, Jake also impersonated a woman named Bunny Eberhardt but he didn't know she was a woman so there was no drag. This weekend I re-watched Kevin & Mac, GH, and my strong impression is exactly what it was when I watched it in real time: They did not let them look very pretty. Of course, I think the best ever drag on GH was Alexis posing as the Q butler.  In a different use of drag at AW one Halloween, Jensen Buchanan went as Charlie Chaplin & Judi Evans went as, I think, a male gypsy.

      I'm not sure who wanted them to dump REUNION & instead do a "Dallas-like daytime show" but it seems that it def came from NBC to AW through Rauch, so, yes, it absolutely could have been his (cough-another-stupid?) decision!!!! I've just begun the new Lisanti book so maybe I will find out. (I waited for the kindle version to come out.) I would apologize for being so critical & so sarcastic, too, but, well, I'm not actually sorry!  Silverman was NOT a friend to AW.  And, I believe the critique is on point & deserved! I wanted to explain why I think the timing is off for the 90 minute show to be a reaction to the GH Luke & Laura story & its hype. Because, for sure, networks & production companies did react to it! The first 90 minute show was Monday, March 5, 1979.  And, there was some unknown amount of time ahead of that with people arguing about it & then, planning it.  The Luke & Laura wedding was mid-November 1981.  They were on the run from Frank Smith & stayed overnight in Wyndham's Dept. Store early August 1980.

      Yes, I am familiar with Fred Silverman. Agree, the 90 minute AW a very poor decision by Silverman. I think Silverman was behind the decision to go with Texas.

      Thanks -- you're doing God's work The Gio reveal was everything I hoped for and more. GH got it right. Head to toe, GM is a stunning physical specimen.

      I really wonder how they'll handle Netflix's usual long breaks between seasons. That girl is going to grow up fast... makes me wonder if this wouldn't have been a better fit for HBO Max considering they're leaning into a more broadcast style of production model with The Pitt.

      I agree -- I didn't suspect Ted, either. I think a lot of people are giving themselves way too much credit in predicting Ted's problems

      And can I have a different take on Ted here? Yes, he's made a huge mistake with this Leslie debacle, and yes, he has to suffer and pay for it. But does that make Ted a terrible human being? I don't think it does. He made a horrific mistake over 2 decades ago, and as far as we know, he's been a good husband and father since. As far as we know, he hasn't strayed or violated his marriage since. He didn't know that he fathered another child, and thought he "removed" Leslie from his life. I won't blame Nicole if she doesn't forgive him, but I also won't blame her if she decides what they have and what they've had more than makes up for what he did. Ted is getting dragged far more than Bill is on these boards, and I think Bill is MUCH worse as a husband and father. How many times did he cheat on Dani during their marriage? How many times did he do vile things in his role as fixer? How much did he hurt his daughters by screwing their friend and marrying her? With Keith Robinson coming in as Ted, maybe we'll see a character change in direction and we'll discover that Ted has many flaws and always had a dark side. For now, though, I'm inclined to both be angry with Ted for hurting his family while also sympathizing with him. I know what you mean, but I do think that was intentional. So much was going on in that episode, and I think they decided not to let Nicole's reaction be lost in all that. Nicole will get those scenes that you're asking for.
