DAYS: NABET crew members (audio/lighting/video depts.) have been laid off

[Khan]

Please say it was on a dare.

Perhaps, but DAYS does not have the budget to hire new crew members on their own dime.

[Vee]

Only DAYS consistently looks and plays that bad for years on end. Only DAYS consistently seems to revel in destroying itself, first through the writing and showcased performers then from the inside out. Eileen Davidson is back and getting wasted like everyone else.

More like an endurance test. Or maybe I'm more of a masochist than I know.

[Khan]

Well, that explains the glazed-over expression in her (and everyone else's) eyes.

Can't say I blame her, though. If you have to toke up to watch DAYS these days, I could only imagine what you'd need to work on it.

[Khan]

Either way, Vee, you are the [!@#$%^&*] for surviving. "Everybody gets high, everybody gets low," but this body got gone.

To actors like Molly, Peter and Renee who left of your own accord.... sad to say this but you may have gotten out just in time. Wow. It's hard to be enthusiastic about Days when stuff like this happens. The same goes for other shows affected.

[JackPeyton]

Depends on if they went union, as they should, or went nonunion, as i predict they will.

Dont get me wrong, days' days are limited absolutely. but this is also a show thats been as close to cancelled without being axed as possible on more than one occasion on a network thats in no place to try something new given how little they actually pay to broadcast the show (with penalties, for ratings below a specific number). When days is counted out, its always come back. Id say its still 50/50, just like before.

Itll be interesting to see how Days, The Tonight Show, access hollywood, and the other shows taping at burbank will handle this. they all have to do something.

Only days? While i agree with you on it being bad for years and ruining itself, i surely would not limit this to only days. It is sadly the norm. Id give you GL, ATWT, OLTL, AMC, GH as examples and that is just in the daytime.

Esp ones like Molly who are booking gig after gig after gig.

[Khan]

Funny, they used to say the same about GUIDING LIGHT.

[chicklitsandfantasies]

I don't think that GL opening is that bad. It looks way better than GH's current opening which is the cheapest looking opening in daytime,

[Vee]

The question is 'with what?'

Nine times out of ten the answer is Gary Tomlin, some shitty writer, Sami, Rafe, Shawn Christian, Ice Cold Jennifer, the same old stories with EJ and Nicole and a slew of interchangeable teens or ruined characters who have just been brought back with great fanfare only to do virtually nothing. That's why they're here. They keep getting big chances and keep wasting them.

They're not forcing the actors to change clothes in the back of a car on the side of the road at gunpoint yet, I guess there's that.

The Wanchai Ferry bit is especially stupid since Caroline's carrying it around in her pub.

[Eric83]

LMFAO

[marceline]

The Cheerios ad sucks because the she keeps showing the back of the box to the camera. Isn't the point of product placement to actually show the product? LOL!

That Wanchai Ferry bit still cracks my [!@#$%^&*] up.

[Khan]

I told you we not doin' "DAYS 'N' the Hood," and that's that!
