Members marlenafan Posted April 18, 2008 Members Share Posted April 18, 2008 I'm sorry, I gotta disagree (while agreeing) with you. Yes the show has been boring and awful but no I wouldn't compare this to JER's stuff. His worst DAYS storyline wasn't as bad as the mess that's been shoved down my eye sockets this week, not even during his second run. The show was still a bit more interesting even when his storylines were dumb. It seems like every single storyline on DAYS right now are at a creative standstill. Everything is just so humdrum and boring. I don't think I can take this anymore. The only thing that is keeping me interested is the fact that Dee Hall has a storyline (of which is boring right now but I just love her so I will endure whenever she is on). I have been fast-forwarding through every other scene. WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MY SHOW? WHY CAN'T DAYS BE CONSISTENT? February was so awesome and not the show has been slowly loosing steam. So frustrating!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members koos Posted April 18, 2008 Members Share Posted April 18, 2008 Nah, it's not as bad as the bleeding tree stump or the badly animated skeleton kids dancing down the alley during the SSK storyline (nevermind all the other atrocities). It's just repetitive, dumb, and boring... a lot like JERk when he was toned down. IMO. It's about as bad right now as it was during winter/spring '07, which means that it's bad enough to stop watching, but not bad enough to stop watching for three years. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members koos Posted April 18, 2008 Members Share Posted April 18, 2008 Okay, Thursday was a garbagefest. This is about as painful as the show can get without going into fantasy land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KevC1980 Posted April 18, 2008 Members Share Posted April 18, 2008 Honestly, i don't think the show is all that bad..I'm still really enjoying it..Love having Nicole back and seeing her mix it up with Victor, Phillip, Chloe, Sami, EJ, and now John..The Ava storyline got a little boring last week, but we've had a lot of action in that storyline this week..And next week is a huge week for all them...In my opinion Max and Stephanie are the only real low point of the show right now..

Members Cheyenne Posted April 18, 2008 Members Share Posted April 18, 2008 ^^ I agree Kev. Except the low point for me is Kayla. I don't know, but I just can't stand to listen to her dialogue. She's just so dumb and she's really getting on my nerves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted April 18, 2008 Members Share Posted April 18, 2008 i agree thats how i feel about patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheyenne Posted April 18, 2008 Members Share Posted April 18, 2008 Well, here's some stuff Kayla has done/said recently that's just... * While pregnant lying in a hospital bed: "I'm gonna go look for Steve!" (This is stupid because she's pregnant and she will put her unborn baby's health at risk. If this crazy lady she knew nothing about managed to get Steve, what did she think she of all people could do about it? ) * While sneaking out of her room to visit Bo in his room at the hospital: "No Bo, I'll go look or Steve. It makes perfect sense for me to go." - Or something like that. (Again, what I said before) * Still in Bo's room: "On one condition. I'll go with you. You need a doctor to go with you and ha, I happen to be one." (So Bo needs a doc with him on this "mission". If he collapses, what will she do to help him without any equipment?) * With Bo sneaking around at the guarded Vitali properties. She's arguing with Bo about how they're gonna find Steve and Hope. Never mind Bo is a trained detective and has done this about 500 times before. Bo: "Come on, we got to get out of here." Kayla: "Right." Then she walk right out of the bushes were anyone can see her. Bo: " No, this way." Seconds later Kayla is discovered and caught by the guards looking stupid. * When they found Steve and Hope she left the gun in reach for Ava and turn her back at it. When they were on their way out she FORGOT about it and just left. And this is just this past week... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KevC1980 Posted April 18, 2008 Members Share Posted April 18, 2008 Steve and Kayla haven't been very popular since their return..Hogan made the mistake writing them a huge story last year with the crazy Steve storyline, that had them off in their own island on the show...Well that story bombed, and the fact that they got airtime while Bope and John and Marlena were backburned made fans very angry..So i'm very pleased that Higley did a big story with Bo, Hope, Steve and Kayla...Yes its had its faults, but i'm enjoying it for the most part..And really looking forward to Ava's father coming into the mix.

Members Days4Life Posted April 18, 2008 Members Share Posted April 18, 2008 For the last couple weeks, I've been ffing through most of each episode and watching the entire show in about 10-15 minutes. The last time I did this consistently was when Dena Higley was the HW. Who's writing the show now? Awwwwww, I see a pattern! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MikeGoldy Posted April 18, 2008 Members Share Posted April 18, 2008 You know, I love to bash DAYS as much as the next one, but I think its pretty good right now. I think the Steve, Kayla, Bo, Hope, Ava story is really clicking; I love the return of Nicole, I like Philip and Chloe, and well, as much as Drake's acting as JAWN makes me cringe, at least Marlena and John have a story for their fans.

Members brimike Posted April 18, 2008 Members Share Posted April 18, 2008 There's nothing offending me. But there's nothing really exciting me now either. It's definitely watchable - but I really don't think it's any better or worse than it was in December or January. It's just "business as usual in Salem". Although that's how I feel about most soaps these days, so I think the problem might be with ME and not with the SHOWS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Days4Life Posted April 18, 2008 Members Share Posted April 18, 2008 Nicole is the highlight of DAYS for me right now. I'm enjoying John, too. However, the Ava storyline (which I enjoyed at the beginning) is not working for me right now, and I think a big part of it is all the flashbacks of Ava/Patch. Their story does nothing for me, and I see no chemistry between them. Tamara Braun and her expressive face--love those eyes--is all that's keeping me marginally interested. Bo and Kayla riding to the rescue was ridiculous, not to mention very ill-advised from a medical standpoint. I hate Daniel as surfer doc, I'm bored with Chelsea's crush, EJ has lost the edge that made him so fascinating, Sami only comes alive for me when fighting with Nicole, Chloe just floats around and contributes nothing, I hate Stephanie and Max and won't watch any of their scenes, Anna is acting too immature for me to care about (although I liked the Anna/John/Marlena scenes from last week, especially when John called her on her behavior).....I wish I didn't feel this way, and I'm not giving up on a show I've watched almost my entire life, but there's just very little I'm enjoying right now. I really, truly, desperately hope that changes soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted April 18, 2008 Members Share Posted April 18, 2008 they need to wrap this ava story up and let Braun mix it up with other people in salem. i would KILL to Ava go to Marlena for therapy. OMG! and can we please get to the max storyline? and i hate that they tease me with Philip/Morgan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted April 18, 2008 Author Administrator Share Posted April 18, 2008 Great acting by Tamara, Stephen and MBE today. They're doing their best with this horrible storyline. I liked the Morgan/Philip scenes. I hope DAYS will explore this possible pairing. I'm tired of Chelsea/Daniel too. I have no interested in them hooking up. Yuck.

Members KevC1980 Posted April 18, 2008 Members Share Posted April 18, 2008 Nicole and John's scenes are a riot..I'm absolutely loving having her back..Haven't got to watch the whole show yet, will post more later.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
