DAYS: Discussion for the month of May


Recommended Posts

Ohhh...is Ciara going to be kidnapped (re: Bo's latest vision)? I could see the Dimeras doing that in retaliation. I hope that happens.

Word. The feud is great when it involves scenes with Victor or Stefano.

I hope so too. I'm so afraid of Ken Corday because he has a history of screwing things up when things are going well.

I loved both Monday and tuesday's shows. I was reflecting on it and I rate these last four months (i've been watching live since march and youtubing back episodes a bit back lol) as among the most consistently strong the show has been since 2002/3 (Brash/Cwikly). The show feels cohesive, well thought out and planned - Days never feels like this :P Because of Corday or NBC or Steve Kent or whoever, I don't expect it to last. All I know is that I'm entertained and hope it will continue. I watch Days and other soaps historically out of escapism I guess, so as long as I get that, I'm good.

I watched bits of the last few episodes and I was pleasantly surprised at how they're writing Victor. Whether it's in character or not I have no idea because Victor has been all over the place over the years (the low point must have been when he was carted off to the nursing home for several years), but they have finally found some combination of being ruthless without being a ridiculous caricature. Seeing John Aniston get to act again is such a treat.

Days is so horrible. I literally have not watch the show for 3 days...one word to describe the show right now -- boring.

I HATE Nicole and Ej together

I HATE Sami and Rafe together ewww PUKE

I can't stand Melanie

I can't stand Stephanie

I can't stand Philip

I can't stand Nicole

The ONLY good characters on the show:

Daniel is not on enough

Mia is not on enough

Will is not on enough

Sami is being destroyed with them putting her with Psycho Pedo Rafe

EJ is still stupid and still with the Ho 'Nicole'.

Adrianna needs a friend, maybe someone related to Mia.

---

for me, the ONLY good part to the show are Mia and Will, all they do is TALK and its boring because that is all they do, which is ashame because they are my favorite part to the show, when they are NOT ON, I do not bother watching. They need TO ACT like NORMAL TEENAGERS -- god Dena Higley doesn't know how to write Teens. If she wants some help, go and watch Season 1-4 of one tree hill.

God, c

Yeah I read woohoo. Actually, I don't think they deserve it for 2008 tbh. But since they will probably be snubbed next year when they may deserve to win, we should take what we can get :P There may never be another chance either too - sands running out this hourglass :(

Now don't get me wrong, I love a good WB drama as much as the next person but I was still a teenager a mere 2 years ago and One Tree Hill couldn't be further from the teenage experience if it tried with its 25+ yr old actors who look older than any of the kids who truly looked too old for high school at my school, not to mention having the same dialogue problems as Dawsons Creek ie: NO one talks like that in high school.

I know what you mean. I hope they don't go to far with Victor playing games like this, I don't want him to become a cartoon like Stefano. That's why I like Victor more, he is a classic gangster. He had the chance to kill Stefano and EJ, of course they won't be killed off. Only short-term characters are killed these days.

    • Thank you very much for the information!!! All the episodes that person sells are the ones which appear or have appeared in youtube, and some have wrong dates.  Due to that, I guess some people, who have rare and inedite episodes, refuse to upload them in internet, because then, others make money. I hope ABC create a place in the net where we can see all the available episodes they must have, as Retro tv did with the Doctors!!!! Retro tv did an awesome job!!!! Have a look :

    • Dina was Jack, Ashley and Tracy's mom on Y&R.  Joanna was Lauren Fenmore's mother, played by Susan Seaworth-Hayes.
    • The funeral was not onscreen - only the Brooks returning home after the service. Not aware of any available clips.
    • Very very well said!!!

      I would only add that Sam Ratcliff is frequently named in regards to certain AW comedic turns.  And, we know from Carolyn Culliton (tweet 2024) that Sam & Gary put their heads together & came up with that gorilla.  
    • I knew you would be so excited seeing your girl Brookey as #1!!!! She also WINS as to Frequently Married!!!  
    • Yes, Stacy does this both for early DAYS & early GH. I have written some for her, for DAYS. But just one tiny point & that is that she only deals with DVDs. I realize that is not the point of your posting but it seemed the right thing to clarify. I know that you know that video tapes is past, not present.
    • Hahahha I think sleeping with almost all of your daughters's boyfriends and husbands and getting pregnant... definitely gives Brooke the right to top 1 place. Long live the whore of Beverly hills.

    • CurlyQGrl has DVDs of some episodes, that they can sell, but that doesn't matter. What is helpful: they describe the scenes on the tapes, so you can read that as recaps without ordering anything. Doesn't really give storylines, though, which is what you asked for.  Here's the links anyhow. full menu https://www.angelfire.com/tv/curlyqgrl/menu.html GH page https://www.angelfire.com/tv/curlyqgrl/gh/menu.html GH 1960s https://www.angelfire.com/tv/curlyqgrl/gh/eps/gheps1960s.htm
    • I would argue that Another World never played "everything" for laughs. Even when there were comedic scenes in some storylines there were other storylines that were not intended as comedy.  You give 1988 as the end point, and Mary was on the canvas from August 1986 to February 1989, so she must have overlapped with the despised laughs you are referring to at least half of the time she was there. I honestly can't recall any real comedy that Mary would have been part of. I don't think she was lighthearted about choosing between two husbands, MJ's prostitution, Kathleen's death, or even her son Scott dating her daughter Cheryl.  I would have said that the amount of comedy depended on the head writer and there was more comedy under Richard Culliton and Gary Tomlin in 1984 than subsequent headwriters. I guess there was an outbreak of more comedy when Cecile kidnapped Cass from his wedding in 1986, but in general the Sin Stalker wasn't presented as funny, Mitch's return wasn't funny, John's arrival wasn't funny, Reginald wasn't funny. The tone was serious even if the plots verged on the ludicrous. And maybe that's what you mean -- but I would make a distinction between intentional comedy and storylines I can't take seriously for other reasons.
