Members JAS0N47 Posted October 24, 2023 Members Share Posted October 24, 2023 Screen Gems became (or was gobbled up by) Sony. I think I answered this before, maybe for you or someone else. They are the distributor of the show. Their main job was accomplished in the US when they sold Days to NBC. Their main focus since is as the international distributor of the show to all of the countries outside of the US. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JAS0N47 Posted October 30, 2023 Members Share Posted October 30, 2023 BILL BELL'S MEDICAL CONSULTANT FOR "DAYS" IN THE 1960'S AND 1970'S WAS DR. MEL BAYLY...BELL NAMED THE SALEM DOCTOR WHO DELIVERED MIKE & HOPE AFTER HIM! In some recently unearthed "Days" research, Bill Bell mentions that he got medical advice for "Days" storylines from a Dr. Mel Bayly, the chief of obstetrics at a Chicago hospital. In 1968, Bill Bell named one of Salem's long-time recurring doctors after Bayly. Richard McMurray played Dr. Mel Bailey on "Days" from 1968-1977. In fact, Dr. Mel Bailey was also a baby doctor, and helped deliver five babies throughout his decade on "Days", most notably Mike Horton in 1968; Hope Williams in 1974 and Eli's half-brother, Scott Banning in 1977. Pictured above are the real Dr. Mel Bayly (left) and actor Richard McMurray, who played Dr. Mel Bailey (right). Here is the real Dr. Mel Bayly's obituary from 2012: Dr. Melvyn A. Bayly was Chief of Obstetrics and Gynecology, and later Chief of Staff at Wesley Memorial Hospital in the 1970s. Eventually, his son Melvyn Bayly Jr. joined the practice at Northwestern. The son of the Rev. Milton and Myrtle Bayly, Dr. Bayly was born on a ranch in Alberta, Canada in 1919 and grew up in Chicago. Dr. Bayly attended DePauw University, where he met his future wife Lila Seneff in 1939. He graduated from Northwestern University Medical School in 1943 and served as a US Army Captain in Europe in WWII. Mel and Lila married in 1942. They raised four children in Evanston, IL and later moved to Golf, IL. A devoted dad, granddad and great-granddad; Dr. Bayly is predeceased by his wife, Lila; and son, Melvyn Bayly Jr. (Libbie); Dr. Bayly is survived by his sisters, Verla Peterson and Vivienne Bertolette; his brother, Darryl Bayly; his daughter, Marsha Schoene-Langohr (Marshall); his sons, Ronn (Susan) and Phil Bayly; eight grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.

Members Contessa Donatella Posted October 31, 2023 Members Share Posted October 31, 2023 1991 #ClassicDAYS Bo & Roman talk on the pier in matching brown leather jackets (They have a really great talk.) Here's the question. Supposedly there's a scene in 1992 that is similar only it's John & Roman but again with the matching brown leather jackets. Anyone have any idea what date in 1992 that might be? Thanks! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JAS0N47 Posted November 3, 2023 Members Share Posted November 3, 2023 DID YOU KNOW....MAGGIE'S DEBUT AND STEVE & KAYLA'S WEDDING WERE BOTH STRIKE EPISODES... "Days" fans may not realize, but Maggie's debut episode from 1973 and Steve and Kayla's wedding from 1988 (the last time "Days" was # 1 in the ratings) were both written during WGA strikes. No writers are listed at all on Maggie's debut, and only "Story By" is listed for Steve and Kayla's wedding in 1988.

Members Contessa Donatella Posted November 13, 2023 Members Share Posted November 13, 2023 The big thing about DAYS & writing is the huge changes they've undergone! They lost all 3 vets that they had - Lorraine Broderick, Carolyn Culliton & Richard Culliton, all retired. They had 4 African Americans & now they are all gone. Plus, just recently Joanna Cohen disappeared from the list. That means they've lost a total of 8 writers! They've only gained 2, both nepotism hires, Henry Newman & Sonja Alarr. Now I am one who will rise in defense of nepotism at times. I mean it is alive & well in daytime & has been literally since the beginning & there is much to the good. In this case, however, I'm not seeing it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members j swift Posted November 14, 2023 Members Share Posted November 14, 2023 There's a big story in Los Angeles about a man who dismembered his wife, and her torso was found in a dumpster. Part of the draw of the story is that the man is the son of Sam Haskell, disgraced CEO of Miss America and former agent of Dolly Parton. Also noted was that the man's mother was an actress on Days of Our Lives. So, I did an IMDB search and to say that she starred on DAYS would be an overstatement.
