Thank you so much!  I'm pretty sure this was the term I was thinking of, but now I can't even remember how Vivian pronounced it.  LOL. I'm going to look up the word to see what the heck it actually means.  

Thanks to everybody who helped with this little treasure hunt!!  Much appreciated.

Yep, that's it!!   Thanks for the help on pronunciation.  We have some very nice and helpful people on this message board. It's great to be reminded of that occasionally.  

By the way Contessa, how did you find the clip you posted above?  Is it audio only?  Is the entire episode available to view??

Thanks again .

It's in my files, the whole episode. To get this I did a quick edit. Both Audio & Video. If you want it, just PM me. Choose betw the whole episode or Viv/Brady edit. My DAYS files, continuous, begin with 1984. That's true in general for collectors of digital files of DAYS. I have years before but here & there, not continuous.

Happened to stumble on this story with Jackie Cooper in 1971. For those that don't know, he was the actor-turned-Screen Gems exec who helped sell the Days pilot to NBC in 1965. In the story below, he talked about his time at Screen Gems and says that 22 of the 41 pilots he made while there made it on the air, so that's a pretty good track record!

From our Easter Egg hunt today, I did an edit of Vivian & Brady in & around the sarcophagus that is all set up for Maggie & she is on a phone call near the end of the 9 minute edit. Anyone who wishes to see it: my usual video hosting site; acct: shallotpeel; video title

Just as an FYI/FWIW I added some DAYS to my Reels in my Instagram acct. 5 were current & the rest were much older. Sony immediately challenged 4 of those 5 which I promptly deleted. They didn't challenge Gwen/Theresa stunt at the airport. They did challenge Bill Hayes last day, Drake last day, Drake last day with Deidre & Dick Van Dyke "I'm Your Son!". They didn't challenge any of the older clips. So far, anyway. And, no one challenged AW, AMC, ATWT, etc.

Two questions for the group

  1. How did Peter develop “jungle madness”?
  2. Did he still have it when he went to prison?

I know he was released by 2019, when they last mentioned him on screen.  But, do we think that they'll reference this very passé/soapy term if he ever returns?

1. Peter was bitten by a bug.  I think a mosquito and developed jungle madness on the Hope, John, et al Jungle trip.

2. Stefano found a cure for Jungle Madness before Peter turned himself in.

Peter has been referenced several times since 2019 and multiple times this year.  It seems like he's fine? I doubt the show would ever reference Jungle Madness now that Ron has been fired if Peter ever came back.

I don't know if those goes against any non-compete thingys with other chat boards, so if this has to be removed, please remove, but I wanted to let Days fans know that the very-long-time Salem Spectator "Days" website, which was offline recently, is now back as of today. So, if you want to join and post there: https://salemspectator.freeforums.net/

    • Yeah, and quite honestly, are there really that many scenes that are flashback-worthy at this point in the run?
    • I know at one point they were on Hulu & i-Tunes. I just checked it on JustWatch.com & it indicates 1 season on Prime Video & on AppleTV. Have fun!
    • That era is so weird...they made a big deal out of all three of those characters and then they just..disappeared! Not that I am complaining. We talk about the bad out of character writing for Alex under JFP..but this was one example that may have led them to write her being so obsessive with Nick.  WHY would Alex accept Flock of Seagulls guy as her brother? They had her in one scene (setting up the Alan return) complain that Alan abandoned her...she blackmailed him into leaving town and she had been angry at him for helping Brandon with Lujack and also using Spaulding for that dumb dreaming death thing. Endless scenes of her with Simon, I can't believe Bev wasn't bored to death! I would also add Pam writing the scene where she lets Ms. Sally die in front of her to protect Alan and  the writing for Alex could be screwy even before JFP.
    • On this day 34 years ago the final episode of Dallas and came in at an astonishing #2 in the ratings after two straight seasons of weak ratings. Interesting Knots was #27 for that week as well:

    • Thank you for clearing that up. I wasn't watching GL regularly yet at that point, but seems to me I should have remembered the big wedding after Leslie's death (which I do remember) described in the profile. Is there a web archive of SOD summaries, or are referring to your own personal collection?
    • I was bummed that 2.0 ended because Mcpherson (headwriter) had really set up some interesting stories and we never got to find out where the stories would go once they resumed production on 'season 2'. I remembered the EP (Ginger Smith) and a lot of the stars gave a lot of credit to McPherson being able to come in on very short notice and come up with stories/plots (I think it was a very short turnaround time of a few weeks).  It was nice that she got to redeem herself after her year long Days stint was not well reviewed/liked.

    • It seems like a setup for failure to review a single episode of a soap, but Cleveland Amory was a foolish man.  His taste was so predictable, that one wondered why bother reviewing a medium he so clearly disliked. (found on Facebook retro TV group) Another case in point of his misogyny from his review of Dark Shadows (Can you imagine the magazine with the widest circulation in the country insulting its customer in this way today?)

    • They could easily be re-created, or even re-shot in different ways, especially if they were re-shooting scenes at some point, as well.
    • The Ted recast really is a shame because now they won't be able to do flashbacks to the best scenes the show has done to date.
