Days: May 2020 Discussion Thread

I hate that the show wasted Abigail and Chad. I myself can't think of any story possibilities but I loved them back during the serial killer arc and her breakdown and they don't bore me to tears. 

 

I hate the missed opportunities on the younger set. Paul is gone while Will and Sonny bore me to tears. Chad and Abigail with little story. JJ wasted. Claire written out. I actually like Ben and Ciara together but the writing is way, way off (and yes soo is the premise) and Theo gone.

 

I basically only watch the show for Gabi and Marlena. CB is fantastic and comes alive in every scene. I hope they can find her a good actress to spar with as SS has zero energy for me as Lani and I don't enjoy Abigail vs. Gabi. I finally caught up on last fall and SS sucked the energy out of the botched wedding for me. But I must say I loved the over the top heart monitor app story. 

 

As absurd as some of the writing is against the cheap budget I am thankful to see Marlena with consistent story. I really wish they would do a true reboot and refocus the show on the Black family with a side of the Last Blast crew. I would be fine seeing everyone else go and a smaller cast and other characters coming and going.

I'm catching up on DAYS, almost through with April... what is UP with the change in lighting?  John and Marlena are in bed and it looks like someone is shining a spotlight on them! Why so harsh? In another scene, it's daylight and people are in the tiny park and the lighting is so bright and harsh, we can see the "blue sky" behind the plastic shiny trees looking so dull and unrealistic, looking like exactly what it is: a cheap set.

Knowing DAYS, I wouldn't be surprised if they fired their lighting directors to save money and asked the craft service guy if he didn't mind 'turning the lights on real quick.'

Who dressed Hope in that ugly top today?

He’s doing really good so far. I really like Jake’s personality. It’s completely different from Stefan’s and he’s pulling it off really well. And I like Kelly Thiebaud too. Too bad she’s being replaced.

how would you feel if you were personally responsible for every single patient admitted to Salem University Hospital regardless of what kind of doctor they need to see and you are related to most of them all on top of being Chief of Staff? The stress has to be getting to her.

    • As much as I have hyped the looks on this show, those dresses did not impress today. Since the premeire, there's only been one look that I can truly say IMO didn't work (and it honestly wasn't even that bad). It was an outfit Dani wore. These flowly wide leg trousers and it was paired with a loose top with a cowl neck. However, I didn't LOVE a single dress on any of the ladies today. Kat's was great only because it suits the character and her personality - so an A for that. It's a good dress. Dana's was also really nice. Everyone else either just was meh, had something unflattering about the fit, or didn't really fit the vibe.  Also, this isn't BTG's fault. It's just the state of soap operas today, but that event felt empty. Tables of 3

      I mean it was nice that they had some extras on there, but it definitely didn't feel like an event when the family was pretty much ever table there.  That was a nice end to the episode and I wonder how this is going to unfold.   
    • I was looking at the AWHP synopses from the period where Quinn had a stalker in 1984 and it refers to pranks and phone calls. Does anybody remember what the pranks were? Or were they just disturbing phone calls?
    • Same. Things were really coming together the last moment of the show. I wish we had more time with it.
    • Exactly when did Ada's kitchen become the "centerpiece of the action"? And which set was the centerpiece of the action before that???    Another World premiered in 1963, and Ada didn't even arrive until 1967.  And then, Ada and Rachel lived in a small apartment.  A couple of years later, Ada married Ernie Downs and moved into his house. So the kitchen so identified with Ada, was actually in the house Ada inherited from her husband Ernie after he died.   I'd suggest Ada's kitchen did not become the centerpiece of the action (if it ever was) until around the time Mary Matthews died, and Rachel began her romance with her second millionaire husband, MacKenzie Cory.  Others might disagree, but that doesn't offend me in the least.   
    • The last scene of the final episode did show that life on Wisteria Lane would continue on once the toxic housewives moved away. It won't be as good as the original, but I'm intrigued to see what these new people do with the concept.  
    • This underscores the biggest issue that the show needs to work on.   The majority of the characters on the show are all related to one another, which is why we have that B&B esque Dani/Andre hook up situation

    • It was a good episode. I didn't expect things to unravel so soon.   One thing I still don't like about these big events: Where was everyone else?   This is a big event. Everyone should've been there.
    • Mitch, thanks for that history of the Reardon Boarding House kitchen.  I had always assumed that every time the kitchen set returned, it was a recreation of the original set.  So I have been wrong about that.   Was the kitchen set ever used later, while Buzz and the Coopers owned the boarding house?  
    • color me shocked.
