That would be good for ratings if the brooks girls all came to town and had reunions with people they havent seen in decades, also there is still a few people on canvas that would know them

 

As long as there is a few people on canvas that the brooks know they can possibly mix in with the new group. Atleast there is still paul victor nikki jill esther jack ashley n traci thsts more then enough for them to come back to

Here are some spoiler listed below for anyone interested in learning right now where this storyline may be headed.

I also posted this information in the Fall Preview spoilers thread and will try and post more information about it there whenever it becomes available.

Thank you very much for the recap. You explained that perfectly.

 

I suppose this finally gives viewers definitive proof that Stuart Brooks is dead. If he were still alive, Traci or Jack would have contacted Stuart directly instead of going through his daughters. When Robert Colbert was let go in 1983, his character simply disappeared without explanation. (Shades of Tommy Horton and Carl Williams.) As time went on, message-board fans and websites like SoapCentral started to refer to him as dead since the Brooks girls did not mention Stuart when the family returned to Genoa City for the Newman wedding in 1984, his former wife Liz Foster did not mention him whenever she would pop up in town, and since Stuart was not mentioned when Liz herself died.

 

If ((the spoilers)) are true, the storyline will be very disappointing if NONE of the Brooks sisters make an appearance. Lorie, who loved Stuart fiercely and who was crushed to discover that he was not actually her biological father, would be a good choice to weave into this plot. 

 

This might just entice me to watch the show again. UGH! LOL!

 

 

ARGH, I shouldn't comment on spoilers which were deliberately hidden, so I will refrain from doing so until the information contained in the spoilers is general knowledge.

True, but why would TPTB bother to take that approach? If Stuart were alive, they should be bringing HIM back for this story more than anyone else. Stuart would be 91 by now, so alas, chances are the show will ultimately confirm on-air that he has passed away. (Although Robert Colbert is still with us at 88 year old, and Bill Hayes is still active on DAYS, so....)

 

In my heart, I would love, love, love to see Stuart and all four of his daughters come back to Genoa City to meet their new family member.

Right. I've mentioned before here on SON, about how many important soap opera characters have suddenly just ceased to exist; disappeared from the canvas never to be seen or heard of again. It's very disheartening for longtime fans who were emotionally invested in those characters.

I really want to know what the writers are thinking or did they just forget? And that would make no sense because how do you skip the obvious. Im still trying to figure out when stuart actually last appeared i think i read it was sometime in October of 1983 but not sure 

And the article i read of him last appearing apparently thats the same week dina first came back, wouldnt that be interesting if they had crossed paths before he was gone forever. It would have definitely made this new storyline there making of them way more believable

    • Except she never worked there at all and barely even knew where the Chancellor Industries plant was located  In 1980, Kay attempted to install Derek Thurston (her third husband) in a position at Chancellor Industries.  The show introduced a character named George Packard who'd supposedly been running Chancellor since Phillip's demise in 1975.  (George Packard's storyline in 1980 was attempting to keep Derek Thurston from bankrupting the company.)   We didn't hear much of anything about Chancellor Industries for the next twenty-five years.  Then, at that point, we met Eliot Hampton (?) who'd been running the company for decades and had been embezzling from it.  Jill took it upon her herself to oust Eliot Hampton (?) and take control of the company.  That's when Kay became actively involved in the management of the company.  From 1974 till 2004 Kay Chancellor was strictly a hands-off owner.  It was downright absurd that the last ten years of life, she was written as this formidable businesswoman who'd always been involved in Chancellor Industries.  
    • Well, it's going to be something when he finds out the truth.  Agreed.  On that note, I can't until it all comes out. I find Lulu to be ridiculous. 
    • I almost posted this because that was my initial reaction too:  this is weird/cringe, to sing around a piano after such a huge family shattering bomb was dropped.  But I got over that and just enjoyed her voice, the song and the montage we saw as everyone's emotions in the aftermath were pouring out.
    • The Equalizer original series was not a big hit yet it became a movie franchise and got a reboot series. The Equalizer reboot lasted 5 seasons, so one season longer than the original series.

      His social media/IMDb doesn't have his age but from some posts he's made, I'm guessing 1989 is his birth year.
    • Here's the timeline, as I recall it being published. The WGA strike was 5/2–9/27/2023 Annalynne McCord was announced as being hired in December 2023, for a one-year contract https://deadline.com/2024/06/days-of-our-lives-when-to-expect-annalynne-mccord-peacock-1235975806/ RonC's first scripts back from the strike began airing May 31, 2024 (around Konstantine & Maggie's wedding) https://www.tvinsider.com/1137709/days-of-our-lives-writers-return-15000th-episode-storylines/ Her first air date was June 19th 2024. The actress has said she was not told who she would be playing until she started taping. RonC 's replacements were announced July 2024, with his scripts airing through April 2025 Side note: DAYS social media team seems to be playing fast and loose with BTS videos, in terms of how far in advance they film content (e.g. their April Fools' Joke videos were clearly not filmed on 4/1/25), so we shouldn't assume anyone's current status, versus those who were there nine months ago.
    • April and her husband (Draper) are the "young leads" who tie all the storyline threads together.  They're normally in the center of the action.  In this particular storyline, Draper is the attorney who represents Paige Madison.  (The district attorney, Logan Swift, has given Paige Madison "temporary immunity from prosecution" if she will lead the police to the members of the Tobias Gang who stole the firearms.  But Paige mainly just ducks bullets from various gang members who pop-up to assassinate her.)    
    • It's one thing to post about a soap's rumors or gossip, which in point of fact we've all done. It's another to present yourself as the inside source who knows something to be fact that's about to break wide, then backtrack and call it just Twitter speculation. Between those two extreme poles you have to commit to one or the other. If I got something wrong, I'd say it. (Nor would I keep playing insider after what I pulled with Drake Hogestyn, which should've gotten someone permanently banned.) And regardless, you don't open with this 'news' you don't actually want to stand by yet by mocking DRW's extremely valid concerns re: how the Trina character and Tabyana Ali has been marginalized and put out to virtual pasture ever since the day NAC left. Her playing out her current contract in a C-storyline with Kai does not change that.
    • Yeah, I thought it would be more explosive or heated and it was kind of standard.  Both can do more with the material.  I just don't think the writing was there.
