This has been the lamest so-called gay storyline ever! Even ATWT, with all the criticism it received, told the stories of Luke/Noah better than this. Unlike Will/Sonny, Luke/Noah were built up to be a couple. They spent lots of time together so the audience could believe that they were on their way to becoming a couple. The road to Will/Sonny has been a joke, a very bad joke. This entire storyline reeks of the "any gays will do" mentality. Just throwing two gay characters together for the hell of it, and completely disregarding the lack of build-up, the lack of interaction, even the lack of good chemistry IMO. There's been no secret flirty moments between them either. I also don't buy that someone doesn't know that they are gay. Will is old enough to know what he feels sexually, so if this storyline is trying to suggest that Will doesn't know, then it's crap of the highest order.

The diff for me is Sonny Vs Luke in that Luke we saw come out and for a year we wanted him to have a BF. ATWT cast Noah as his BF, we knew that going in. BUT they got bad story after bad story and all their villians were cartoonish. Not so much human emotion. World turns allowed kissing then didnt then there was the time Forbes March played mason where he admitted PG/ATWT didnt even want him touching JS's (Noah) shoulder for too long. I think once they got canned and Reid came on they didnt care anymore and it became more real. Actually I felt that was Luke's best relationship, defintley most honest.

On Days we have watched Will grow up and this is his story and he hasnt even come out yet. Its gonna be a slow reveal for Will. As For Sonny, Yes he's from a core family and he's out so we didnt see that. It happened off screen. So now we just see Sonny for who he truly is. Once Will comes out we will begin to see who Will really is and then a relationship between him & Sonny. I just hope Days allows their romance once we see it, look and feel like all the other romances in Salem.

Pretty accurate ....but there has been no real interaction with Sonny and Will. I mean showing them out on the town....getting to know each other...have meaningful talks...but them still being just friends.....not Will comes out and then he wants Sonny.....

Any relationship with Luke was going to be about delaying sex and intimacy. It's one of the reasons I was never overly invested in Luke and Reid. I would much rather see them just try to develop the characters. Reid was at his best with other people outside of Luke.

Gabi and Will are at the pub. Will Looks at the website and he and Gabi are shocked at what they see. Posters are complaining that wont visit a site run by gays. Sonny comes in. Gabi closes the computer But Sonny Thinks somethings up. Will tells him there is a glitch on the site and tells Sonny we need to get to class, but Sonny looks at the site. Gabi & will tell Sonny that they will stop the poster byt Sonny doesnt want & Fight and says he bow out of the site.

Will tries to talk Sonny out of quitting & letting the haters win. Gabi notices postings where people are disagreeing with the original poster. Sonny decides not to quit. Later Chad tells Sonny he saw the postings and thinks something more is up than just gay bashing

      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.
