Days: May 2018 Discussion Thread

He's not blond; he doesn't have a "hot" body; they claim his acting is bad; probably something that Freddie Smith has said in the past that they now hold over him.  There's probably more but that's just off the top of my head.

It was much better. I wish she did a little more but it was miles better. Not that there was anywhere to go but up from her last stint ...

Everyone's entitled to like and dislike who they want.

 

A little rich coming from someone who isn't exactly unbiased when it comes to the Will/Paul/Sonny story. Don't you have such a high disdain for Paul?

 

Pot, meet kettle.

For me I dont see Sony as a tiugh guy and he has been an ass this year

[AlexElizabeth]

I go back and forth with Sonny, but the commentary about him is one of my favorite parts of this thread.

[ranger1rg]

 

Our problem isn’t with Sonny, but with Freddie Smith.

 

He can’t play tough and badass, he smirks or smiles through romantic scenes, he’s not hot — so making him a lead romantic character does not work.

[SteelCity]

Doesn't Will smirk or mug through all his scenes?

[cassadine1991]

But he's hot, so it's fine

That's why Will and Sonny are made for each other, I guess.  When DAYS ends, in fact, they can go smirking and mugging into the sunset together.

On a somewhat positive note: I'm glad Theresa's being written in-charatcer again. The story is a bit meh but at least I have a bitch I can love-to-hate again in her. Jen Lilley's been missed.

He's ok, but I would walk past him in the mall.

If i Had to choose, I think Freddie is more attractive than Chandler ...

[DRW50]

 

Chandler is mostly an empty Ken doll. 

[ranger1rg]

 

He does, and I've complained about that repeatedly. Apparently no one on set can keep these actors in line or stop them from ruining their scenes with smirking and smiling and mugging. Chandler is as guilty as Freddie in this regard.

 

It's even more apparent when they're in scenes with Christopher Sean or Greg Rikaart, who DON'T do it and can stay in character. Massey and Smith are like Beavis & Butthead. They're like 10 year olds who laugh uproariously when someone says the word "hole."

[Faulkner]

I’ve never seen the giggling as Chandler or Freddie breaking character. I think they are trying to play the boyish delight a teenager might get around their crush, but the problem is they are 27 and 30 and therefore too old for that mess.
