Members vetsoapfan Posted February 10, 2017 Members Share Posted February 10, 2017 Gratuitous, vicious, and alienating to longtime fans. Dena Hackley strikes again. This sort of thing makes me NOT want to watch, rather than tempting me to give the current, butchered version of DAYS another try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 10, 2017 Members Share Posted February 10, 2017 You know the saddest part? I'm surprised they're even going to have Julie find out onscreen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dr Neil Curtis Posted February 10, 2017 Members Share Posted February 10, 2017 Stupid move! Hate I read this, I heard sooo many great things about this character and was hoping he would be recast and brought back for Val's story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vetsoapfan Posted February 10, 2017 Members Share Posted February 10, 2017 If we don't see all the important beats leading up to the climax, as well as the climax itself, who cares? The Hortons are the show's foundation, and Julie is its longest-running character. Killing David off-screen without allowing us to see the supposed conflict between mother and son is like asking us to care about the Romeo and Juliet death scene without watching the first 95% of the play. There will be no emotional resonance, except perhaps for veteran viewers like me who watched David's and Julie's relationship decades ago. The people who make this sort of stupid decision do not understand daytime dramas or the audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted February 10, 2017 Members Share Posted February 10, 2017 And all we get is a one way phone call. Come on Ken you could have called Rick Hearst. Im sure he would have been open to appearing as Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted February 10, 2017 Members Share Posted February 10, 2017 I don't think this is a completely horrible idea, but we all know the execution won't be good. The only way I could accept this is if it coincided with Scotty also coming back and then we could have the fallout with Valerie and Eli as well. It sucks that we won't get to see Valerie and David interact either. He could've been very useful. We will see how it goes though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
