DAYS: January 2018 Discussion Thread


Recommended Posts

The 3 of them are extremely isolated. I liked Derrick he was an interesting minor character.  Like Ann, Rory and Maxine he disappeared into the ether. I wish they would bring back Derrick or create some new gay friends for all 3. A newly returned from the dead Will should be making new friends and having wonderful gayventures.

The actor who played Derrick, to me, was James Lastovic bad. Can we just find a different hot guy with actual talent to be the spoiler? There are tons of them in this country. It’s not like Derrick was some linchpin character who needs to be revisited lol.

 

Now if it were Brant Daugherty...

Lani Price is hell! She has managed to sleep with Addie Horton’s Grandson and Great-Grandson and Bill Horton’s Grandson and get pregnant with a Great-Great-Great Grandchild for Tom & Alice! 

 

btw, I think it’s time for Scotty to meet Eli, I would be pissed Eli got the Martin House instead of me.

Just saw Tuesday's episode and partial Wednesday.....

 

Sonny give Will the divorce. Quit being a baby.

Loved the reaction on Paul's face when Will told Marlena that he served Sonny with divorce papers.

Now that Val knows that truth...I hope she buries Lani.

Claire is so annoying. She needs to go or be recast.

JJ and Tripp looking mighty fine.

If either one of those guys returned, it'd be "goodbye Sonny, hello Circuit Party Love Triangle."  A desperate, lonely Sonny finds a stash of Brady's old cocaine, shows up to try to be cool with the circuit queens, then O.D's. #Sad 

 

Ha. Could you imagine if RC had zero restraints at NBC/Corday/etc. and could go full out Queer As Folk on this show?

Speaking of no restraints, I've long wanted a soap that had no restrictions. Language, sex, etc. Give me a trashy, gritty, real soap and I'm there.

 

Sonny snorting coke just makes all kinds of sense LOL. I wish Ron would go there. I'd like a darker Sonny, but then I wanted a darker Brady and now he's manhandling women and slimy. And I don't know if Freddie can pull it off. Eric shines doing this kind of stuff, IMO, but Freddie failed in the Deimos story so I think he'd fail at a darker more manipulative Sonny. But I think it makes sense to make Sonny the more manipulative and darker one, although I never would have said that during Sonny and Freddie's first run.

    • If this was a Ron episode, Sarah’s choking would’ve lasted almost the entire episode. Javi being revealed as a firefighter EMT and Sarah chastising Xander for wanting to go after Chanel/Sweet Bits the cliffhanger. I’m glad there’s actual movement and progression in these episodes. I vaguely remember Cwikly and Brash tenure being the same with their daily episodes 
    • https://www.tvinsider.com/1180503/denise-alexander-dead-general-hospital-lesley-webber Denise Alexander died March 5th & I'm so sad.  The first soap storyline I remember was Susan Hunter Martin (Denise Alexander) & David Martin & Julie Olson & poor little baby Dickie on DAYS.  I followed her to GH, Lesley.  I followed her to AW, Mary/Marisa.  I followed her back to GH.  About her, Christopher Schemering said  In soap magazine polls she was voted Best Actress over & over.  Schemering, C. (1987). The Soap Opera Encyclopedia. Ballantine Books.
    • Good point. In addition to being a great character in her own right, she had chemistry with almost everyone on the show. A Jake/Paulina/Iris triangle would have been a lot of fun. If 1994 AW aired in 2025, I doubt Iris would have even considered to be on the chomping block. All the shows now are noticeably less youth obsessed compared to the 90s.
    • I wrote my previous post about Dante being on a 3-day rant while I was at the 30-minute mark of the show. By the end, Dante was back to being reasonable and kind and understanding of everyone and everything. OK, I get it. We all knew that sooner or later we'd get the wise Dante. The mistake was showing him berate Jason IN THE SAME EPISODE and imply he's a lousy father.
    • I think Dante has a larger GH fanbase than both Ava and Nina character wise.  Both CW and MW have a built in fanbase outside GH which isn't really indictive of the characters, IMO.
    • Just this fan's opinion but I have said these writers are the most plot opportunistic maybe ever! They will have any character say just about anything if it advances whatever plot point they have in their minds atm. I think if Dante's POV right now was defensible people would be running it up the flag pole. The fanbase thing you're describing to me it just means they're going to continue to like their fave no matter what. 
    • I think the difference between the head writer change at Days vs GH is that the day to day episode quality at GH was still lacking while the day to day episode quality has improved. And now that there appears to be some depth to the episode content... the limitations of some of the performers on Days is more apparent (i.e. Leo, Alex, Sophia, Cat). However, Rome wasn't built/rebuilt in a day so I'm waiting to see how things are in three to four months once some of the threads/stories from Ron's era are tied up/resolved.. and Ford/Cwikly's long term content kicks off
    • That would be me. hehe. Keeping track of who I liked better and how it informed what would happen from episode to episode. 
    • Hey, Mike Manning, hey!!! That shirt and those slacks are working today. lol.   Nice to have this Vanessa/Nicole scene.    Look at Kat vs Eva as a cliffhanger.   I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT!!! I KNEW SILK PRESS SHEILA WOULD SHOW UP AT NICOLE'S AT SOME POINT!!!      Another trio of cliffhangers (including Dani vs Ted...another combo today)! Friday cliffhangers indeed!!!
