DAYS: February 2016 Discussion Thread

He went full-JPL during that scene where he was telling Belle about the guy in the DA's office. And it was painful.

 

Also, Brady allegedly grew up with Daniel, but he didn't know what his late wife looked like?!

[Gray Bunny]

I just had a flashback to that story where Austin took control of Carrie's company without ever knowing who "the president" of said company was. 

 

[Michael]

OH MY GOD. Weeks of them talking about "the CEO of High Style" without ever... Googling who it was?

[jjjg]

So Rafe and Hope are not only killers and covering up a murder, now on top of it they're going to frame Andre for the murder they committed and are covering? Sick, twisted and they both deserve to be locked up and never be cops again. That needs to be IT for both their careers when this is found out.

Glad Chad's gotten half a clue and realizes Andre is telling the truth.

No words on Chase and Ciara. Rape? Really, the show is already so dark and depressing and now this on this soap?

 

[Toups]

So Friday's episode was a WTF episode and so was today!  Chase rapes Ciara? WTF!  This makes no sense.   And in the Horton living room???!!  Come on!  That's where they hang the Horton Ornaments.....and it's Tom and Alice's home...TOM AND ALICE.  That set is now tainted.  This is one of the most truly disgusting things DAYS has ever done.  Whoever decided to do this needs to be fired.  They're not writing right now so it's the perfect time.  Don't let those writers come back. 

 

This Hope/Rafe storlyine is also gross.  Hope/Rafe are being written as the bad guys, and I'm kind of feeling sorry for Andre.  It's like an upside down world.

Ciara's rape is Josh's story

[Juliajms]

Since Andre's the one whispering in Chase's ear, I don't feel even a little sorry for him. He needs to be right at the top of Hope's hit list.

[Toups]

That's what I figured since he wrote (with Michael Malone) Marty's gang rape on OLTL.   Has he given an interview or said something about this storyline?

[kylefish76]

Not yet but Vivian is too green for this and im sorry but they shouldnt being doing rape with more murder around the corner

[Toups]

Agreed that Vivian won't be able to handle this story.  She's no Becky Herbst who did very well with Liz's rape. 

[kylefish76]

I just hope they go the Jack route with Chase & redeem him. Id love to see a remorseful Chase but I dont trust these writers which is sad cause to me Jonathon McClendon is very natural and would be an asset to Days if used properly

[cassadine1991]

she's no Susan Haskell either

[kylefish76]

To be honest, I didnt like Susan until Marty's rape so maybe this will make Vivian stronger. I hope it does or the story will fall flat if one side of the equation cant bring the chomps.

[SoapDope]

I normally don't watch Days much, but caught the tail end of the show today and was disgusted about the rape in the Horton living room. I agree that set is now tainted. Every time they show it, viewers will be reminded what happened in that house on that vintage sofa.

[vetsoapfan]

A rape in the Horton living room? UGH. That's as vile as the infamous shoot-out in the Bauer family kitchen on TGL.

 

I no longer watch DAYS, but I am curious about another issue: how often do viewers actually see Maggie Horton and Doug and Julie Williams? (They're the only three characters whom I'd make a point of tuning in for, at this point.)
