November 9, 201015 yr Administrator At least Days isnt doing what B&B does with Susan Flannery by getting a man in a wig to play her action scenes LOL I agree.
November 9, 201015 yr Member I'm not sure if Sami's boobalicious cocktail dress was appropriate for a memorial service and will-reading. No, but it was Ari so nobody really cares & she looks fantastic.
November 9, 201015 yr Member Just watched last week's episodes, my first real venture into this show. That chick playing Melanie has a really annoying child-like voice. Everyone else was okay; I'm especially enjoying this Vivian story. Loved seeing Robin Mattson again. Hahah, Santana and Gina on screen together again.
November 9, 201015 yr Member I didn't mean actually seeing Vivan get out, or Maggie getting in. I was talking about showing the action before Maggie was put in the coffin. Is Suzanne so fragile that she can't be picked up from behind, or she can't play someone trying to get away? If so, yeah, axe the idea of Gus restraining her and maybe show him grabbing her arm, dragging her to the coffin. It's just little scenes like this that add so much to the story, scenes that we can visually remember. TV is a visually medium and I don't think DAYS does enough to show stuff on screen. I doubt it's a matter of SR being frail (with that Rockette kick in those pics from the Days part, she's obviously in fine form), but it might be a matter of picking what's important. Does Days have the money to do this type of stunt? What would it's ultimate benefit be? Perhaps the physical aspect is being kept for when Maggie is eventually rescued. Who knows the reasoning. While I agree TV is a visual medium, story telling should leave some things up to the imagination.
November 9, 201015 yr Member All My Children and Days are totally different types of show thus it makes sense that the lighting/production values are different on each show. AMC is still trying to pass itself off as a serious soap opera thus the more subdued lighting while DAYS is more of a campy/spoof soap opera thus the more flamboyant lighting. I dislike Melanie and I think it's because of the performer's acting choices. The best example would be the Gabi character who I totally like better once they recast the actress. The other actress looked like a young girl while the current actress seems to have a more mature and intense presence. Cant wait for Jennifer
November 9, 201015 yr Member Wow...those updated titles are pretty sweet. Not much of a difference, but you can actually see the grains of sand in that hourglass. That's pretty cool. I notice the tags are a lot less "tight," but since I'm not a regular DAYS viewer, that might be something they've been doing for awhile. Other than that, it looks the same, just widescreen. I'm just glad they upgraded.
November 9, 201015 yr Member http://twitpic.com/353jkn great picture of Molly & Suzanne (Eh, Alfonso is there too) before doing an interview. Has anyone gotten the photo book yet?
November 9, 201015 yr Member At this point, it's not so much the brightness of the lighting, but rather the hue. The coloring is off. We know it's not our TV set settings, because everyone has said the same thing and peoples' screencaps reflect that. It's too pink. The men all look sunburnt or have that reddish, pinkish look that some older men eventually get (rosacia?). Yesterday, the color of Justin Kiriakis' face was that of somebody who's been holding their breath for a minute. Something is off.
November 9, 201015 yr Member Started watching Days again, it's so much better soap than the ABC soaps. I flove me some Maggie
November 9, 201015 yr Member Suzanne Rogers puts ALL the younger actors to shame. Her acting as Maggie was talking to Vivan was simply amazing. Very subtle but she potrayed the emotions perfectly. She needs an Emmy nom Are they actually trying to make something out of Arianna's hit and run? I thought it would be some no name driver never to be heard of again. Who cares?

November 9, 201015 yr Member I completely agree Cheap! SR is amazing! Plus she's so damn gorgeous too
November 9, 201015 yr Member I completely agree Cheap! SR is amazing! Plus she's so damn gorgeous too I noticed that too. She looked so pristine in that coffin. Very beautiful indeed Yay! Nicole has the evidence against Sami Edited November 9, 201015 yr by Cheap21
November 9, 201015 yr Member http://twitpic.com/353jkn great picture of Molly & Suzanne (Eh, Alfonso is there too) before doing an interview. Has anyone gotten the photo book yet? Awesome picture -- and all three generations of actresses look absolutely beautiful. So do the colors in the set behind them -- very plush and autumnal. Haven't gotten the book. Still deciding whether I should.
