It's here! We all knew the annual "Plan to Save DAYS" was just around the corner. I wonder what fanciful tales Corday will sell us this time.

Unless the plan involves buying out Ken Corday and throwing Dena Higley into a lion pit, I'm not convinced.

FYI: Dena Higley posted on Facebook that her her work with Ryan Quan doesn't debut until September 6.

Why does SOD even entertain Corday at this point? The 'save DAYS' issues must be huge sellers b/c this same issue comes out every 1-2 years.

Outside of that brief mention of the villains, I fail to see what this plan is. That entire article reads rather generic like it could have been pulled from any old article from the last 10 years

After all, plans to save Guiding Light, As the World Turns, All My Children and One Life to Live did not work.

But then there's the proverbial Terri Schiavo debate.... What quality of life is it really....?

The Media/Journalism Thread

The Pulitzer Prize Board has counterdemands regarding Tr*mp's lawsuit against their 2018 Journalism Prize, for the "discovery" phase of the lawsuit.
Tr*mp is suing the Pulitzer Prize Board for defamation -- because they awarded the
2018 Pulitzer Prize for Journalism to the New York Times and Washington Post for their reporting on Tr*mp's collusion with Russia. He feels that those newspapers damaged his reputation and they shouldn't have received the Journalism Prize. In order to win this lawsuit, he must prove that the underlying reporting was false and that he actually suffered harm.

Part one, December 11, 2025
https://news.bloomberglaw.com/litigation/trump-heads-to-discovery-phase-in-pulitzer-defamation-suit
The Pulitzer Prize Board is demanding that Tr*mp provide all of his financial records and medical records proving that he suffered harm:
The discovery demands request “all documents” that back up that assertion, and then go further. The board wants any documents Trump possessed backing up damages claims in other defamation cases he filed over a 2005 biographical book “TrumpNation,” against CBS for a “60 Minutes” episode he claims cost him “at least $10,000,000,000,” against Dow Jones for reporting on Trump’s ties to Jeffrey Epstein, and in other cases where he’s faced off against CNN and ABC.
The board is also seeking private information going back to 2015, including internal polling Trump would have conducted on himself to gauge his reputation, all of his tax returns, documents regarding all of his assets, and any gifts and compensation he’s received since then.

Part Two, January 30, 2026
https://news.bloomberglaw.com/litigation/mueller-report-trump-russia-evidence-demanded-in-pulitzer-suit
The Pulitzer Board says he must prove that the underlying reporting was false, and therefore ...
The Pulitzer Prize Board has responded to this lawsuit with their own demand that he must release the full unredacted Mueller report. “Just like any other plaintiff, the President must articulate and prove his claims with evidence,” a spokesperson for the Pulitzer Board said in a statement.
Also they requested other documents:
The request includes high-profile documents, from the March 2019 report issued by Special Counsel Mueller examining Trump’s role in Russian election interference tactics to joint assessments on those Russian activities to US House and Senate reports on this issue as well as assessments by US spy agencies. None of these have been released in complete, unredacted forms.
The board is also seeking communications between Trump’s inner circle and Russia. The board demands letters, email, text messages, and social media direct messages of a Who’s Who of Trump campaign and administration staff including Stephen Miller, Michael Flynn, Jared Kushner, Steve Bannon, and Jeff Sessions.
Further, the board is demanding records regarding Trump’s investigations and firing decisions, documents related to the firing of FBI Director James Comey, and any communications around the potential firing of Mueller. A demand for records into the reason the Trump administration switched an investigation into the Russian interference investigation from US Attorney for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania David Metcalf to Southern District of Florida US Attorney Jason A. Reding Quiñones.

ALL: Characters that fizzled

AW resurrected the character of Elena, mother of Cecile, who had become a leading lady of the show at that time. And they cast Maeve McGuire, who had been super popular as Nicole on Edge of Night throughout the 70's and was returning to daytime after a few years away.
Just over a year later Elena was written out.

DAYS: February 2026 Discussion Thread

All that talk about Ari's internship and we didn't even get to see her first day. SMH.
Overall, today was a mixed bag, but it was still much, much better than that pathetic excuse for an episode that we got on this day last year.
I thought Rafe and Gabi did a pretty good job, as she absorbed the news about Stefan. As insufferable as Rafe can be sometimes, I think he and Gabi work really well together as brother and sister, almost like Brady and Belle. And I'm curious to see what's going to happen now that Gabi knows the truth about everything, and how it could affect her relationship with Philip. I still don't think Stefan's dead though. I can't help but think that there's going to be a twist. Like, that it was Jake's body in Alamainia or something. Too bad that Louise Sorel is done for now. Maybe she'll come back later on, if there's still some secrets to be revealed. Ari comforting Gabi was nice as well.
And, I'm still a little interested in the idea of Rafe and Kristen possibly teaming up, mostly because of all the stuff that it could lead to.
The Bayview scenes were kind of annoying though. I liked that Tate was there to comfort Rachel, but I'm just getting tired of this whole Bayview plot point, in general. But Tate did look hot at the beginning in Holly's dorm room, despite the awkwardness 😍😂😂
As for Sophia, I probably would like this storyline with Holly a lot more if I still liked her. At this point, just kill her off. Days really should have stuck with Doug III as the primary source of conflict for Tate/Holly and the rest of the younger crowd. Not only were there more, and better story possibilities, but acting wise, Peyton Meyer was still better than Rachel Boyd. That crazy, wild eyed look that she was giving us all throughout today was making my eyes hurt 😂😂

Some Wiseguy episodes from the Dead Dogs Record arc on YouTube, with Tim Curry, Paul Winfield, and Deidre Hall circa 1989, S2...

Deidre's character, Claudia, was married to Tim Curry's character, Winston Newquay! I know I posted something from this a few years ago, but I forgot exactly what, and there's more than one here. this time. Besides the above and the star Ken Wahl, it also features Debbie Harry and Glenn Frey, among others!

Dark Shadows Discussion Thread

I've been watching some of the wrapup of the Leviathan storyline. I'd forgotten just how much is devoted to setting up Parallel Time, with so many characters getting involved to look at the empty room (that empty room is one of the more quietly chilling aspects of the show).
Roger is his most active for years in this period - a shame that this is Louis Edmonds' final appearance in the role.
Sometimes I think I'm too hard on Geoffrey Scott because of his work on GL, but no, he's still bad here. At least Sky helps lead to the Angelique return and revival which helps make the last weeks of the story more compelling (if only she'd learned about Parallel Time).
I remember that Dark Shadows book which came out in the early '90s saying PT didn't help the show in the long term in spite of some initial ratings success because it was too confusing. I don't think that's the case. I think, in spite of a great idea and some great performances and moments, the central story with Angelique, Maggie and Quentin just isn't compelling. This is by far the weakest KLS role (even weaker than Rachel Drummond) and the most one-note of any Angelique material.
I still wonder what story Chris would have had if poor beautiful Don Briscoe hadn't left. Maybe he would have fallen for Sabrina and been killed by Cyrus.
(the at times ludicrous, at times deeply disturbing Cyrus story quietly carried that timeline)

Thanks @slick jones . So many wonderful photos and articles, along with cast lists. I appreciated reading Maeve's thoughts on her Irish roots (more interesting than her Search role probably was - sad she never found a good soap part post-Nicole). I had no idea Jim J. Bullock had popped back up on B&B.
