I look forward to see what he writes for Marlena

 Maybe she's the one who gets DID? Or maybe the Devil makes a come back. 

This is both hilarious and sad as our current administration in the white house. The only positive is Sheri Anderson as consultant.

Wow, great news. While Ron certainly was burning out near the end of his GH run and deserved the boot, overall I've enjoyed most of Ron's work and think his writing style is a perfect fit for DAYS. The worst his having to wait 6 months for his material to air. It'll be interesting to see how Ron is without Frank as his EP.

I'm thrilled. Carlivati's OLTL was the last time I actually enjoyed a soap for an extended period rather than just an episode or two. I didn't like everything he did, but I was pretty consistently entertained. Hopefully, Shari is there to rein in his more extreme impulses and ground the story in a little more history and romance. 

 

I just wish we didn't have to endure another six months of blah from Higley.

To be honest I quit watching Days in late 2011 after twenty years during the Poulter/Thomas regime because the "reboot" I felt horrendously was doing a lot of unnecessary damage i.e. Sami sleeping with E.J. and then E.J. possibly not being a DiMera was way too much. There was some good moments I tuned in for in 2012/2013 sorely for Eileen Davidson's Kristen, I tuned to watch E.J. and Sami's exits in 2014, and I tried to watch Days' 50th anniversary and serial killer story but nothing has ever brought me back to the show at all. E.J. and Sami shacking up back in November 2011 was disgusting enough to make me quit watching regularly , but Chase's rape of Ciara was enough for me to sever any sentimental ties to this show. 

 

I wish the best of luck to this show. I never watched OLTL but I've seen Carlivarti's name thrown around quite negatively for years. People said and I even thought myself that Hogan Sheffer would be more ideal for Days. Just look what happened back then and I am sorry to say this has be the last go around for a soap I once loved and fell out from. I was able to stomach ATWT and GL to the very end but I can't the say the same for Days unfortunately .

This is eerie as aside from the 20 years (mine wasn't quite that long) so much of it describes why I slowly quit GL and finally moved away for good (until I knew it was likely going to be canceled and I wanted to say goodbye) after the unforgiveable Ben serial killer story and Tom Pelphrey Does Yoko Ono. 

 

It's sad how we slowly lose so much of what we loved about a soap until the last things we thought they couldn't take are taken too.

I never watched Days, but I wish Mr. Carlivati well.  Love him or hate him, I don't think anyone can dispute that he is very clever.  I liked his GH tenure, it's just that the show didn't inter-connect the characters very well under him, but, now that he's been gone awhile, it has been demonstrated that all the problems were not his fault.

    • lol he sounds like he's speaking as Randy    
    • Dani going to Bill's house is karma for how he messes with Martin. It is totally separate, but I can't feel sorry for Bill when he's constantly antagonizing a family he says he wants nothing to do with.
    • I understand what Lois did. I can see everyone's side, even if I don't agree with them.  That  proves it's a good story    Lois is far from ruined
    • Oh wow. Thanks so much for sharing!!!
    • The character of Lois has been ruined and trashed. There's no coming back from this mess. The current production and writing team have had no idea as to what made her special to begin with. She had a bit of moral fiber. Her treatment on the show is not atypical though, as most characters will get trashed, even beyond redemption, if it serves the current flavor of the month plotline.
    • No idea if this one had ever been up before or what the exact date is, but it's always good to look at/save the new AMC content while you can. If you're here for the drama there is some delirium with Adam and Erica about 10-12 minutes in.

    • I think there's a story to tell in someone who always believed in honesty and integrity being emmeshed in so many lies, but I agree that it wasn't very well laid out over the last few months. I think if I was more invested in Lois, I would have more of an issue than I do. Few can hold up against Jane. This is one of those cases where I think mentioning who already switched babies or have long-lost children would just take away from the fallout. If Lulu wants to drag Brook Lyn for hypocrisy there is probably still time (if the show bothers). I don't think anyone would claim these are the best GH episodes ever. It may be very lowered expectations at play. But I do think that scenes like yesterdays were some of Tracy's best, as she is a character who is often not allowed that type of moment.
    • You would think that, wouldn't you? I'd almost think they needed the money to get Robert Newman back, but they also had to know Larkin wasn't going to stick around and play second banana either. I don't get what the writers thought they were doing with Calla. Long liked using actors from Texas, but other than Alex/Bev McKinsey, the characters she wrote for them seemed blah.
    • Bo has a bad history with kids named Zach. (too soon?)
