Agreed. This cast deserves so much better than it's getting right now. I know I've said it 500 times on here, but what this show needs is a clean sweep from top to bottom. Out with the new and in with the old.

If NBC did that (and I know there are no guarantees) maybe longtime viewers like myself and others would return. But Tomlin thinks we're [!@#$%^&*] anyway, so why bother.

Honestly DAYS is heading into their 50th year and it deserves better writers. Tomlin and Whitesell have been at the helm 2 and half years as has Lisa DeCazotte as co exec for almost 3. They have had a run but so far the show is dull with too many new actors and it's filmed way too ahead I know it's too keep budget down but then u can't change anything if it's not working. Even Lorraine Broderick and Richard Culliton as co head writers would be good.

I believe the production schedule is far more too blame than anything else. Unlike other shows (take Y&R/B&B), if a story is unexpectedly resonating with the audience, they can quickly adjust and bring that story forward in pretty short order by picking it back up in just a few weeks (same goes for bad stories - can wrap up, adjust or move on). DAYS does not have that option at all - by the time stuff airs - it's too late to adjust. In fact, in some cases, the actors have already been let go, etc. They are guessing what the audience works and right now, they are so off. It's a shame, really.

Again what DAYS are exciting writers that want to do things well. Core characters the audience wants to see. Sami and Kristen are huge losses for the show.I would hope SONY and Steve Kent step in and really shake up the show. I think they are nervous a repeat of 2011 will happen.

    • -- Gio is bringing the cake in that lifeguard getup.  -- Why are Laura and Sonny at the Metro Court pool?

        I look forward to seeing all the characters who show up at this pool all summer. Oh, look, there's Ezra!  -- Couldn't Brennan have done a better job -- or any job at all -- of keeping Anna from investigating Dalton? Seemed to me that all he did was give her every reason to do that. -- GH does the courtroom stuff very well. We get absurd lines of questioning that no one objects to or that the judge allows, but it's good TV.
    • 1985 was a rough year for the show.  Paul Rauch had a disastrous end to his 12 year run as executive producer in early 1983.  Allan Potter, AWs original executive producer, returned to the show in 1983 and stayed until the end of 1984.  He truly turned the show around quickly.  He made the show watchable and entertaining again.  When Potter’s retirement was announced P&G was going to transfer Mary Ellis Bunim from ATWT to AW. Instead, she went to Santa Barbara to work with the Dobsons again.  This was when Schenkel was hired and made one bad choice after another.  
    •   More Supremes parallel: Today Anita told Vernon that she'd anonymously sent money to Barbara's family, but it didn't relieve her feeling of guilt. I didn't realize that the Supremes were originally named the Primettes.
    • Hahahaha!!! Not Sharon with a better wig. But...could we be seeing an actual rival for Anita.   Mmmm...hey Andre hey!    Chief Executive of Orgasm is taking me out. It is weird seeing Dani in that nightie after just watching Y&R birthday party for Nikki and thinking that was what Abby was wearing and found it a miss.    Oh, lord, Bill! Hush! Big baby!!!   OMG! Nosy Nurse....read her a$$!!
    • Yeah I’m glad Anita put a stop to that. What Anita did was wrong and it’s okay for her to admit and feel what she did was wrong. The Duprees have to be wrong at some time.
    • Come thru, Anita's backstory!!! Enjoy TT having her moment.    
    • Leslie is not being a very good criminal. All this asking questions of everybody is only making her look more obvious. The problem for Hayley is that she has failed to actually connect with Bill on anything other than going to bed or him buying her things. She acts like she is still the mistress and not the wife. It's fine that Vernon supports his wife, but he was making too many excuses for her and she was right to tell him to knock it off.  
    • HAHAHHAHA!!! @kalbir being right on the money...right down to the music.

          Nosy Nurse!!!   OMG!!! Not Nosy Nurse vs Silk Press Sheila!!!   And it's a Sara day!!!    
    • Very true - AMC was a good ensemble show in the 90s (until Kendall/Zach/Greenlee/Ryan took over in the mid-2000/2010s). Glad you liked the 1994 tornado and 2006 Mardi Gras ball too

        I'll have to go watch those Mardi Gras ball scenes this weekend. I think I actually have them on VHS somewhere in some boxes haha, but I don't have a VHS player anymore.
