DAYS: June Discussion Thread

I'm going to miss Carly :( The characters (save for Dario and Taylor) that are leaving are the ones that I like. I actually started watching again when John/Marlena were axed. Oh well... I'll have an open mind though I hope the show goes back to its root's of a psychological drama like it was in the 60's and 70's.

Glad to see Bo/Hope involved in the fake Rafe story.

Really good episode today! I literally jumped at the ending! And I don't know who it is, being spoiler free, so I'm excited.

I am gonna miss Carly as well, if only because I love her histrionics. I will also miss Dario. I think he works as a character! And I am going to be irritated if everyone is lovey dovey just having adventures instead of having real relationships.

Also, I was worried we'd get an episode with a mention of THE CAMEO but thankfully Bo got to say it in his dialogue for the first time.

Finally the story is moving along! I love how they integrated Bo and Hope into Sami's story

They so need to have Nicole look at the cameo and the head in it turn into Faye who starts talking to her.

How cool would that be? LOL

LOL!

I really like roping Bo and Hope into this. Could be a fun story for Safe and Bope without any triangles or super-contrivance.

What is this "Sapphire Club" crap, and why has Vivian Alamain been dining there? This is so Higley.

Bo got back to the basement and found that FakeRafe had untied himself and had knocked Hope to the floor. Bo saved Hope, and they got FakeRafe tied back up. Then someone kicked in the door, and Bope pulled their guns...

If this was 2003, that would happen! Remember when JER had inanimate objects talking to people? Like when Sami's Thanksgiving turkey had Kate's head on it? Or Nicole talked to herself in the mirror with this weird accent?

Honestly, today for me was THE FUNNIEST Days scene since Marlena fell out the Penthouse and landed on Sami. All of this cameo talk led to a crescendo of cameo hilarity. Not only were they confronting Rafe 2 with it, but then Sami put it on and BECAME Fay. Then she fell down the goddamn stairs just like Fay, with Bo just standing there and Hope off to the side screaming "Sami!" but doing nothing. I was seriously dying and had to rewind that scene like 10 times.

Not AS funny, but also amusing, was Sami grabbing Mary's arm and yelling, "The hell you are!"

Also, I'm with Toups -- where the hell did Taylor come from?! Wasn't she just at the damn hospital? Did she really creep in through the patio to find EJ?!

    • Yes, it has. It was seen in the episodes when Dani broke into the house while Hayley and Bill were on their honeymoon. Dani and a Fairmont Crest security guard were also shown outside the house's entrance. Bill and Hayley were seen in the foyer when they returned. I imagine the set will resurface when there's a need for it.
    • There is some kind of arrangement going on between Justin and Evie, who seems to be caring for Sam. I'm not sure, but she may even be living there with Justin and Phillip. Phillip inviting Evie at least makes a little more sense (if the guest list was limited to women Vanessa liked, it would've only consisted of Trish and Helena. lol)  Maybe it was more common to hang on to performers, back in the day? Instead of immediately kicking them to the curb? Evie hadn't had much to do after Chet was revealed to be her stalker. With Rita, Jackie and Ben gone, there weren't many on the canvas she'd really worked with, other than Ross. They could've pivoted her back to Ross, instead of letting him languish love-less for nearly a year other than goo-goo eyeing Amanda. Nowadays, there might've been a moment written Jordan and Janet, an eye-wink to the audience about them having previously worked together.
    • I 100% agree that Bill and Haley's set would work better as a bedroom. I also think it might have made more sense to give them a penthouse instead of a mansion. Realistically they aren't going to have the room for multiple mansions, even with the larger studios. A more open concept penthouse would've been fine. I also wish more people lived together. The age confusion kinda messes that up but I would at least have Chelsea living with Dani. If Martin were Anita and Vernon's child (as he should be), I'd have these families living together as well. By doing that, the space used for Martin and Smitty's house could be used to build a dining room for the Dupree home and I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to throw a couple bedrooms in as needed.
    • CBS primetime was such a mess in the 1990s. 1990/91 fourth consecutive third place finish. 1991/92 to 1993/94 some signs of life but it didn't last.  1994/95 to 1999/2000 another primetime mess era. 1995 the sale to Westinghouse and Les Moonves arrived. The only bright spots were Touched by an Angel becoming a Top 10 show and Everybody Loves Raymond starting to show growth. CBS primetime would have a comeback in 2000 with the premieres of Survivor and CSI and Everybody Loves Raymond becoming a Top 10 show, and the rest is history.
    •  Thanks! For some reason I had misremembered ER and Chicago Hope going directly head to head but that may have been because of the hype about both shows.    Poor Connie Chung. She seem poised for success and possibly the next Barbara Walters. I don’t recall her co-anchor gig on the CBS Evening News was well received though. She kind of tanked her career moving into more a tabloid journalist role once at ABC and especially once she moved off network TV to CNN and later more infamously on MSNBC.

    • Strangely, it was Phillip who invited Evie to go to the ball with him. She had been taking care of Samantha, so I guess it was a way to thank her for helping Justin after Jackie's death? So she was not invited by Vanessa. Phillip brought her as his plus one. That Evie stayed on the canvas so long is extremely odd, especially since Ben was gone way before her. My theory is Marland was going to bring Rita back, so they wanted Evie to remain in place as her sounding board. When he left and Potter was still EP, that might have still been the plan. Once Kobe came in, that would have been thrown in the dumpster along with a lot of other story plans and characters.
    • Nina and Portia are generally presented as entirely too savvy to not think this ketamine (don't even GET me started on that) nonsense wouldn't immediately blow up in their face. Drew, the ex-navy seal and congressman, wouldn't get a drug test immediately after acting wildly out of character? Portia allowed this to so easily be traced back to her by roping in Brad, a man who can't stand her? Nina didn't think Willow would Stand By Her Man? Girl, PAY ATTENTION! I also find it disturbing how BOTH of them are gaslighting Willow. It feels gross. They should have presented Gio as anything other than a responsible, genial and affable guy if they wanted us to buy any of Dante's ranting about him. You've known this kid since he was a baby and suddenly you're yelling at him like he's the devil incarnate? It was so forced. Every one of them, including Dante, know that they all would have done the same thing in Gio's shoes. Teen gets drunk, friends cover for them. Gio's only 5 years older than him, barely allowed to legally drink himself. How was he to know the kid had alcohol poisoning? Alexa Havins crying every day over keeping a baby secret. Ahh memories. Molly and Kristina are just the worst to their mom and Alexis allows it. Kristina does need to be committed, she's a danger to herself and others. I wish Alexis would just tell her that she knows. I can't wait until Molly finds out about her almost getting Ric and Liz killed. I need her to body slam Kristina. Sasha thinks she knows EVERYTHING. She's always giving advice and painted as right no matter what. And so holier than thou while carrying a married man's baby.
    • Correction, Chicago Hope 1994/95 was initially Thursday 9 pm, a CBS dead zone and head-to-head w/ Seinfeld. 1994/95 CBS Thursday 10 pm initially was Eye to Eye with Connie Chung. Later in the season CBS did a scheduling shift with Chicago Hope moving to Monday 10 pm, Eye to Eye with Connie Chung moving to Thursday 9 pm, and 48 Hours moving from Wednesday 10 pm to Thursday 10 pm.
