What do you all think the problem is? Ron is not a boring writer. Is it the horrible production values? The dated look? The fact that they won't let him do something more interesting for other reasons? I expected some drastic changes by now, but the show feels more or less like typical Days A(fter).R(eily).

well for me, I like drama where main characters have to live with the consequences of their actions, instead of bringing someone back from the dead (again) or bring in another family member from another family member who has never been mentioned. John will have to deal with this, and Marlena can't talk Kayla out of her anger for John, and no matter what Steve says.....I'm waiting for the moment he gets fed up and blast John for making him blind. to me, JMO.....there's alot of drama coming up (depending on how Ron writes this), but i do see your point definitely.

Ron’s not a boring writer? Could’ve fooled me. This stuff I’m seeing is wretched, compounded by the horrible production values and dated look. 

 

RC gets the blame for these stories, no one else. This might not be the worst the show has been, but it’s pretty close.

I don't think Ron's original OLTL and GH stories were boring and I expected Days to be more exciting, fun and dramatic. And riskier. The show has to stop bringing the same people back all the time and invest in some new, interesting characters. Characters, not just some out of work name actors as uninspired love interests for the usual suspects.

 

I love Kassie DePaiva, but I don't think she works as Eve, or that Eve is really needed.

Why does Chloe keep coming back all the time? What is so fascinating about her?

The gays are boring and miserable. One of them should be less sugary.

Justin and Adrienne were popular for three years three decades ago. The show has enough retired supercouples from that era. 

I really don't understand why Brady and Rafe are still around. 

Chad doesn't convince me as a DiMera. Not to mention that Chad does not sound DiMera at all. 

Eric and Jennifer look miserable together. 

 

Oh and please stop the actors from choosing their own clothes. Kate Roberts would not style herself like that.
