Deidre Hall and Lauren Koslow both posted this on their respective social media accounts, noting they'd been authorized to share this preview shot from the NYE episodes the show shot in July. Errol said DAYS looks pretty 'Wow' based on what he's seen...this photo seems to confirm that Corday's pumped some money into things, at least wardrobe and lighting has gotten an upgrade:

 

Thanks.

 

They both look great.

Madame Tussauds has really stepped up their game.

But what roadkill is that on the Kos's chest? 

You're right -- they both look fantastic. I just can't believe we have a NYE sneak peak photo in August. Jesus.

Basic Black fashion show. I wonder if anyone will be attacked like the one 2003.

Basic Black always pops back up when ever a new "Plan to Save Days" starts

I literally laughed out loud at the title. Jesus.

Promoting 'hot' 60+ y.o. women in 80's couture! Now THAT'S a unique strategy. 

Ugh. Higs, honey, get over this Basic Black obsession. It's no different than in 2003 when Belle had her fashion show and Bo and Hope were bludgeoned. A mix of Higs into Reilly.

 

Basic Black sucks for John as a character. It better be a front for the ISA. I know he had spy crap there at one point but I can't remember for what now.

 

And I wouldn't say that photo is any indication of quality. I hope it is but I'm taking a wait and see approach on how the show will look. Even when they turn down the lights for nighttime stuff the show just looks instantly better. I don't get this bright lighting on soaps. It doesn't work. Days and GH look awful because of it, IMHO and it makes the shows look even more cheap than they already are. Good lighting makes a big difference. Is it really that hard?

I'm down for it! I'm all for a lil Dynasty reboot.

 

One thing I liked about OLTL during their last years is that they used a lot of realistic daytime lighting, in that you'd see shadows and light coming in from the windows, like it was a sunny day, and there were venetian blinds or trees outside obstructing some sunlight. It wasn't always 100% flattering, but it was realistic. Let's face it, daytime light isn't always the best lighting

 

GL did this sometimes, too, when Rauch was initially in charge (before he got too bright with the pastels and such).

Hopefully, the return of Basic Black will lead to the characters actually going back to work, having ambitions, and building relationship and rifts in the workplace ... a primary issue that is lacking in daytime.
