Go DAYS it's had a great year. Let's mention Lisa decazotte who has been great for days. Now if I could get my Lorraine Broderick promoted to co head writer even better news. As tomlin and white sell deserve the credit I can't help but feel Lorraine's influence on days.

YES!!!!!!

I feel SO much more relieved now, like I can take a deep breath! Everything looked in line for a renewal... but you all know I don't rest until I see it in print! haha. Man... just taking some time to reflect back on where we've been the past few years with the "death of soaps" from 2007-2012 and just the doom and gloom we all have experienced the last few years this is such a great feeling... and not even that! But with Days renewals... going down to the wire in 2008 and the DH's being let go and just hoping the show would be on in 6 months.. much less make it to a 50th! And I even think back to 2011 when I was really worried that GH would be cancelled in its 49th year for 'The Revolution.' I just count this as a HUGE victory for Days and for our soap genre and I celebrate in it! I can't wait to see what we have in store for the 50th :)

Lastly, HUGE congrats first of all to my fellow Days fans and HUGE congrats also to the cast and crew who work so hard to keep our show on the air!

I'm so glad to hear of this news! I'm so happy to know the show will make it to their 50th. I am sure they will go all out to celebrate it by bringing back a multitude of former faves for a celebration, much like they did for Alice's funeral (though under happier circumstances)

It's wonderful to know that NBC, CBS, and ABC have faith in all their shows again. I hope this trend continues. Although I won't hope for new soaps to ever be created, at least not in any way shape or form that the current production model is for soaps, it's such a lovely relief that these remaining 4 keep chugging along and we have no impending doom & gloom leering over our heads.

They should at least test Days in PT again. The climax of Kristen's failed wedding would have been perfect for that. Having AS lead an episode with a big climax to a Sami story at some point this year with heavy promotion from TBL seems like a no brainer

    • GH was good? I havent watched since Joss went away to do her traininig and Lulu had just called Brooklyn out for having Dante's baby and not telling him

    • There was a rumor that Jean will die and that’s probably why she’s back then
    • There has been some confusion about Michael & facial burns. Please see this post: https://bsky.app/profile/shallotpeel.bsky.social/post/3lqkrryu54226 I've chosen to put this here instead of the Classic Thread because it is now with the appearance of recast Michael that this has come up. Different places online, including at least one podcast, remarks have been made about how remarkable it is that he is without facial scarring. Other fans say it was clear from the first that he did not have facial burns. What is included in this post is 2 screengrabs where you can see his face at the hospital & a very quick edit of that day in the hospital. 
    • Put me in the LOVE KMH camp. As a poster alluded to above, her detractors seem to come from people who first experienced the 80s Emily actress. And that's often the case with soaps, myself included. I enjoy the original actor so much that I just never take to the recast. However, KMH played Emily far longer than the original - for almost 20 years - and when she had great material, she was great. I get the sense she didn't like playing the whiny oh-woe-is-me Emily which was all the material she got from about 1996 until she took over the Intruder in late '99/early '00 and got to play a stronger kiss-ass woman who didn't care what anyone thought of her. (Some would call that a bitch but, if a man was in that role, he'd just be called a smart and savvy businessman.) Her relationship with Hal was great. The transformation was done realistically and I thoroughly enjoyed those years the best out of all. Once the writers decided to break up those two, they went back to writing Emily half the time as whiny and pathetic. I preferred when the writers made her stronger.
    • Hahaha - I do. I've always been the type, though, that can't miss anything. I get FOMO, so I'll not skip episodes or fast forward anything. There are only a few TV shows I've dropped because they got so bad vs. sticking it out to the end.  The promise that GL 1997 is better is what keeps me going. I especially want to see the fallout of Blake's lie about her twins and then Annie's descent which I believe won Watros's Emmy.
    • Rita's rape is an episode i constantly search on YouTube hoping one day that it will show up. I always feel like I may have seen it, but I was only 6 at the time and can never figure any of the things I have vague recollection of

    • The rape was in 1979 after they were married. Blake was the result of Holly cheating with him while she was married to Ed. I believe she was born in 1975.
