DAYS: March 2014 Discussion

Loved Friday's episode. The show has improved by leaps and bounds over a year ago. I think Tomlin and Whitesell are watching Carlivati's GH and spicing up their formerly drab storytelling.

I think RC should watch days and see how a good writing team which includes RC's Great script writers from his 2007-12 OLTL tenure and see how to truly write a soap

RC is probably a DAYS fan. I can see that (EW). I'd never want him touching my show. Ever. Or All My Children.

The show had gotten insanely better in 2013. Shockingly good. However, IMHO, March has been very blah and I've started to lose interest again. The daily episodes are almost always fairly entertaining. The scriptwriters are wonderful (well, Cullitons/Salmons, though they've produced some blah/meh scripts) and IMHO, deserve the credit for such a solid show. She's called Queen Salmons for a reason, lol.

I feel like the shows wheels are spinning right now, which is fine, but I think the show was better and hopefully can start to pick up again with Kristen and Eve coming back. Cannot wait to see Eileen Davidson grace my screen again and I'm very very curious to see Kassie as Eve. Even though I feel like Eve is going to be Dannifer angst (although for some reason I feel like Kassie and Shawn could actually work better together). Is Kassie short-term like Eileen? Contract but short-term? Do we know?

They should have made Liam Peter Blake, it all would have fit SOOO good.

This.

Which should tell some RC apologists that it was the SW's who turned out good stuff for OLTL on a daily basis. He still had that awful scheduling where characters go missing for weeks on end.

I agree that Carlivati could learn a thing or two from DOOL right now. DOOL has been emphasizing character development and some plot. Tomsell are good with character, so so with plot. It's the other way around at GH. It's so plot heavy and very little character. But DOOL was just sputtering for a while and now they are taking risks with the sex scenes, Brady's addiction, the saucy dialog etc. I think they will win an emmy for best show again.

The show is boring right now and I am not here for Sonny and Will lovey dovey. The best part is the Hope, Ciara and Aidan stuff. Everything else is boring to be honest

I'm enjoying that story too. Also interested in what's going on with Abby.

I disagree. The characters are interchangeable, the stories are bland and boring, everything is played safe, nothing has long-term effects, the main characters remain the same. The show has been on a stalemate since 2009.

That does not mean I want it to be like GH, which is a trainwreck.

He is the husband of Melissa Ordway (Abby, Y&R) & played Levi Johnston in HBO's GameChange

New romance coming?

Ben falls for Abby at First sight

I hope that Liam has to kill Theresa to keep her quiet. I said months ago the best way for Eve's entrance would be at Theresa's funeral.
