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.

    • The bit with the scarf reminds me of the fabled stuffed animal scene with Rick and Phillip. (That wasn't debunked, was it?)
    • Ohh, interesting. I instantly gravitated towards her in that episode. Of course I'm already hooked and want to know why she was trying to poison that older lady, but then how did the older lady know to switch the mugs so Susan drank her own poison...  but I have too many timelines I'm watching right now haha.  Oh, Bolger is definitely hot. I didn't realize he was on GL haha. I knew him from OLTL and other primetime stuff.
    • This is a effin shame. Eff Trump and eff the bastards that enable him.
    • I 100% agree but I think this is due to how the show is structured. It's a one family show which means there are no people in her age range that could be used as friends or contemporaries of her. The show definitely needs a second main family. I am glad someone finally said this. Especially now that the cast is gelling in their roles, he stands out like a sore thumb. No energy, no chemistry with anybody. He is just there.  I thought that was odd as well! The previous scene would've worked better as a tag for the credits.
    • That's the one and only Carrie Nye (Mrs. Dick Cavett) as Susan Piper, a deadly realtor. I don't want to spoil a lot if you ever want to see those episodes. She returns as another character in 2003. I think Grant has aged well and he always did a good job at being ripped without going too far, but he was never entirely my cup of tea either. I did think John Bolger was hot.
    • Totally agree. KKL looks great! It makes the Widge groveling so bizarre. Brooke needs to leave FC and with $B's/Liam's funding launch a rival fashion house with Hope, Rick, Katie and a secret designer. The best scenario is that Rick has been absent because he's been with very much alive C2, who is revealed on the runway as the secret designer. It'll never happen because B&B is comfortable just focusing on FC and the Forresters Marones v. Logans. But it'd been so much more interesting if the Spencers/Logans united.

    • Haha that scarf thing did go on a bit too long, very odd. And what a young Rick!  I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I just never got the physical appeal of Grant Aleksander, but he's definitely a great actor. Who is the older lady around the 8:30 mark, and also ends the episode, alone and in pain? She seems like a really interesting character. I love the smoky voice and sultry, snaky vibe she seems to have.
    • I can't remember exactly but I think she lives in or is part of the cottage story with Carrie. Carrie poisons her in this episode.  I forgot Teresa was on the show. (I see that AI is insisting she wasn't - well they're wrong) Poor Maeve. I can how even she had her limits. 
    • It pisses me off that the other Duprees are making this incident all about them as well. They are playing a family of victims, acting as if Ted cheated on all of them. They should be supportive, but not like this. I have a family that makes anything that happens to me personally all about them, and seeing the same thing on TV is rage-inducing.
