DAYS: October 2014 Discussion Thread

That's what I've been saying for months! How can the writers be so obviously to not only what the audience wants, but also the type of story that will impact the show until it's done? Perhaps we'll get lucky and it will be Kristen's next arc. Maybe they saved it because of all the other transitions going on and they know that could be a "show-saving" storyline.

So glad my Daniel did not follow through with Kristen..no one will believe him, especially lame Brady and equally lame Jennifer. sure wish the posters on this board would groe up and quit calling the actors names..It is so childish..and predictable


Grow up I meant to post.

I am so late at updating my thoughts for last week's epsisodes - I've been packing and moving! (but I'm going to still give my thoughts since it was Sami's exit!).

1) I am loving where the JJ/Eve chemistry is going! We need to see JJ's bad boy side again and mixing it up with Eve Donovan is perfect!

2) Anne + Kristen in scenes together = THANK YOU!!

3) The only time in this post I will mention him - but JJ turning to Daniel as a father figure is truly a slap in the face as a long time viewer.

4) Quote of the week Runner up: "I was good as the Step-sister in Cinderella, wasn't I?" - Ciara.... I love this girl!... and I really loved the foreshadowing with Aiden telling Ciara "Do you know how dull this town would be without you." - I would love for teenage/adult Ciara to have a flashback to that scene years from now as she is causing pure hell in Salem!

5) Ok - Sami's exit! I know the storyline was a little silly - but I LOVED IT!! The flashbacks were great - I love how Sami got to spend special one on one time with pretty much all of the important people close to her. The scenes with Sami/Hope, Sami/Kate, Sami/Caroline, and even Sami making amends with Abby nearly had me in tears... however the absolute best part for me was Sami's goodbye with Marlena (and the amazing Sami/Marlena flashbacks) and Sami's goodbye to Lucas - I absolutely LOVE their relationship. Their flashbacks were of course amazing! And for me, the best line of the entire week came from their exchange as Sami told Lucas "Lucas, I will never have a better friend." and Lucas said "Neither will I." ... Loved them as a couple, loved them raising Will, and I love how through it all, through the love and hate and scheming - they are each other's best friends at heart. Loved it.

We'll miss you Ali. Thank you for 22 amazing years!! :)

I liked the individual scenes but I'm selfish and would have wanted more substance and not a rush job, but I'm really really glad they took the time to hit on Sami's relationships. She's been causing havoc for 21 years. Unlike many vets who were sent away without nary a goodbye. I'd imagine a lot of that exit had to do with Sweeney pushing for a lot of that. Didn't I read she was pushing for the flashbacks?

    • Looks like they never removed it as it is still there as of this reply.
    • In a way, it's a shame that Lynne Adams decided to leave the show when she did, because I think Mike and Leslie were positioned very well to become GL's tentpole couple.
    • Correct. Lynne Adams (Leslie) decided she wanted to leave the show, as Leslie hadn't been given much to do since Adams returned as Leslie in 1973 (and now everyone can witness her first scene returning as Leslie in 1973 on YT - unreal) I don't think the Dobsons tried to stop that from happening, as I think they wanted Mike single again. I agree, @DeeVee - they should have let Mike and Leslie have a child together. I wonder it they thought it would be too strange to have two siblings that could also be cousins

      . As far as Ed and Holly go, at least they allowed Ed to show up at the end of TGL and take Holly on a "trip around the world". IMHO, I don't think Peter Simon had as much chemistry with Maureen Garrett as Mart Hulswit had, but I'm glad the show gave them a final scene together.
    • IF this gets a renewal I can't see LY sticking around    
    • Well, I'm glad to know Devane and I are on the same wavelength, lol.  But seriously.  I don't believe there's any other word to describe the machinations that the producers constructed in the name of keeping Greg and Paige apart.  Greg and Paige made Sam and Diane look mature by comparison! Which would have been just as well, since a character like Greg Sumner didn't really belong in the '90's, as the storyline with the task force proved only too well.  If KL had returned for another season, it would've needed a MASSIVE overhaul, including ditching Greg, Paige, Claudia and Anne.  Mack and Karen would've needed to be there for the sake of continuity; and maybe some mileage could've been gained from exploring Gary's new life as a widowed single father.  (I still would've loved to bring back Julie Harris and have Lilimae help Gary take care of the twins).  Otherwise, it would've been a new era for KL, one without The Sumner Group, or stories like Wolfbridge and Empire Valley.

    • Didn't she know when she involved him in her scheme, before the character was introduced? I thought she tracked down Janice's son and poisoned his mind against Rachel in order to get him on board.  It's a bit confusing because in the summer of 1988 we get a lot of Drew Marsten (whom I had forgotten was Nicole's ex) and mentions of a mysterious Countess and also Reginald working to undermine Cory. Drew disappears around the same time Evan arrives, and gradually we get the reveals that he is in cahoots with Iris, Janice's son, etc. 
    • I apply totally different standards. For Felicia & anyone else in Bay City it's reel as opposed to out here in the universe where it's real.
