The Dimeras IMPO are DONE. with Joe's death (and hopefully Stefano's final death) the family has had their run. Andre will be made, finally, into the family matriarch (again) but I would like them to go past them. Very interested to see what will come up....I want stories told through the characters, not the other way around...which has now been happening for YEARS.

In its heyday, as penned by William J. Bell and Pat Falken Smith, DAYS was a gripping, literate, sophisticated drama geared towards an adult audience.

 

I suppose I should finally give up hope that the series will ever return to its former glory...I've been waiting for 40 years, LOL.

I can see Carlivati focusing on the Hortons and Kiriakis families again. He'll bring back "forgotten" children as new characters all grown up. I won't be surprised if Mike Horton is back, as well as having Laura on more regularly. Maggie's daughter, Melissa maybe. I'm thinking he'll even use Julie more (especially with David's son). 

As much as I've loved the DiMera's over the years, the family really has been ruined with all of the "deaths". I'd prefer a fresh start with a different family coming aboard that stirs things up. Not a mass entrance all at once (like the Fords on OL) but a slow build up. Maybe Vivian could be the new Helena?

the one thing I'm gripping onto is Sheri being there. if that hadn't had happened.....Days would be screwed. as long as Ron doesn't write the JER garbage and adds some dept, just like you said, back into the show...I'll give it ONE MORE CHANCE.

Maybe Marlena will at least get an exciting story again. I HATE to say this, but I'd probably enjoy the return of the devil. Oh, Lord.

I've been saying that for years. The Dimeras are a thing of the past. IMO, Chad ought to be the only Dimera on the canvas until his son or Sami's kids are aged. Even then, the Dimeras shouldn't hold as much clout or evoke fear like they did in the 80s or 90s. They need to officially declare Stefano dead (again) followed by Andre dying and move on. 

 

I also felt the show missed out on making the Alamain clan the new, central villain family when Louise Sorel and Crystal Chappell came back all those years ago. They could've easily wooed back Michael Sabatino, cast a young actor as Nicky, and went from there. It would've been so interesting to see Lawrence and Hope interact. In my mind, I felt he would've been attracted to her and become a bit obsessed with her too much like he was with Carly. It would've drove Bo bananas. With Nicky, I felt they could've brought him back and paired him with Abby. That pairing would've been so controversial with Jennifer's daughter being attracted to her rapist's son. Would've been so interesting to see Jennifer and a much alive Jack fret and scheme to prevent the pairing while Lawrence could've pushed it to stick it to Jennifer and Jack.

      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

      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.
