I for one like the idea of the story. Sonny's going to have to have a best friend... and it does sound like they're slowing down the story a little bit instead of rushing right through it.

One of the things Days has not done very well these last several years is have men and women be friends rather than paired up. We know they won't go the Sonny/Mel route romantically, so let her have a best male friend. Gives her something to do (hint hint, Marlene) and gives him someone to talk to that won't be so awkward.

One question, though, to the new writing team: Uh, where are Justin and Adrienne in all of this?

I agree. I am all for a friendship, tho I am bummed they dont really do Sonny/Abby scenes that much. I also like that they are playing many angles of this guys life. For example, He and Chad are becoming good friends, and chad doesnt care that he is gay. He and Will are going to end up hooking up. He and T do not get along because T has issues with his being gay (be it because T himself is and cant/wont deal or because he is just antigay). Then you have his family (Just/Adr/Abby.etc) who dont care and new friends like Melanie. He is also going to stay in Salem, get a job and go to college w/ everyone.

On the flip side of this, you have Will. Who, i dont even think, knows he is gay himself. I think he will start to realize it. While having people around him like Chad and Melanie and Abby who accept Sonny and dont care, the actions of Tad could still freak him out as well as coming out to his oddly religious family (i say oddly because really, those people so awful things and are pretty bad all around for being so devoted to god...).

No matter what they do, this will be interesting to see go down. And when is the last time that could be said about days?

as for Justin & Ad, Judi and Wally usually only tape a few days a week. I hope we continue to see them as much as we have, if not more. Id also like Sonny to see some of his other family. Maybe the new writers can give us a big Kiriakis dinner, with the man and their woman. Victor, Maggie, Bo, Hope, Justin, Adrianne, Brady, (whoever he is with at the time, Nicole? Madison?), Sonny and Melanie, his new BFF.

Sonny/Chad working to end their feuding families can't be all that they are about. Will/Sonny might be making a comeback but Chad has been inserted nicely into Sonny's life as well and I'm happy about that. What I'm seeing now reminds me of that spoiler that came out a long, long, long time ago. It stated that Chad would be part of Will's (presumably) gay storyline. And it's now happening, at least on Sonny's end.

Careful, careful! Casey's and Molly's interview had them mentioning CHILL and Casey said something about the viewers not giving up on that possibility. You can say he was just giving lip service but who the hell knows. Wouldn't it surprise many if CHILL was still the REAL outcome to all of this. Word is that these new writers have a rep for actually listening to fans.

      I suspect we would have had a few withdrawals next year if Israel had won. I don't think many people would relish going to Jerusalem as things stand now. Not to mention it would have been a prime target for terrorist attacks.   
    • And they've given us plenty. Sets, outdoor scenes, music licensing, etc. And that was the point of me using DAYS... so. It's obvious the casino set is not intended for long-term use, hence why it's likely it wasn't as evolved as the other community sets, etc.

    • I just had thought of how to save the Perkins family. (Inspired by Rituals) -- What if Marisa Perkins was Augusta Lockridge's sister? Fictionally, they could've both been local girls, one married rich and one married poor. Originally, I was going to suggest that Marisa be Sophia's sister, but then I realized Joe and Kelly would've been first cousins.  Of course, it would've truly inspired Sophia was if Rosa Andrade sister, with Rosa and Santana moving in to help CC raise the kids once Sophia disappeared.  While this could've avoided both gross CC and Santana affairs, the times were not right for a story about intersectional inequity.
    • https://www.instagram.com/p/DJxW5DLJLId/ Another World is my forever favorite soap opera. But it's finale is almost universally hated by its fans. What this is, is an edit where I've deleted everything I didn't like!!!
    • The Perkins family had potential to be a nice alternative to the more dysfunctional Capwells and wackier Lockridges... but I think a few factors did in the family. 1) Recasting of Joe Perkins 2) Bad casting of the Perkins Patriarch, and the one note writing for that character. 3) Lack of antagonistic interaction between the Capwells/Lockridges and Perkins.  (There was no awkwardness between Jade/Ted.. or CC disapproving of his son being friends with that Perkins girl, etc). 4) Wasting of Jade thus wasting the potential of the actress (which was realized on Days of Our Lives).  She had more potential than Laken oddly enough. The only member of the Perkins family that had appeal and a somewhat thought out story arc was Amy.  
    • @GymnastGuyThanks for posting the three new Capitol 1985 episodes today. The two labeled March 12, and 13 are misidentified. The March 12 labeled one actually aired November 12 1985 which I figured out because Kenny Rogers' movie Wild Horses aired November 12th and it was announced over the "March 12" Cap credits. In addition, Craig Carlson is listed in the April credits but not the March. Craig left Capitol sometime after July 1985 before he rejoined OLTL in the credits by October 15, 1985; he was replaced on Cap by Radcliffe and Hamner. In these posted episodes Radcliffe/Hamner names appear in the March 85 episodes but not in the April.
