Thursdays episode... they really should've just opened with the scene that came straight after the DAYS OF OUR LIVES title card instead of repeating the last few minutes of the last episode, mostly because it becomes even more embarrassingly obvious that the original  explosion wasn't that big and restricted to the hall area. With that said, it looks surprisingly good for DAYS.

 

I just dip in and out to be honest. I don't feel the need to watch each episode.

Of course there's usual budget things - like Ciara being able to run up to that door to try and look for Ben, the men of Salem (well, three of 'em) trying to dig him out and the place not swarming with cops, firefighters and EMTs at this point. Then Eli being sent away because two men "got this" in digging out a person from under debris

July 18 1995 was the date! 


Another JER gem that got overhyped as some tribute to Bo kidnapping Hope from her wedding to Larry Welch. Couldn’t Shawn have just driven through the front door? I guess JER wanted to out do his 2001 Passions wedding event that week. 
 

 

Been watching Days again for the Lucas, Sami and Vivian stuff, haven’t been too bad IMO:

Lmao

 

Ciara was in prop Ben mode lol Hope must’ve have known that if she said anything, Ciara would have gone nuts.

 

I’ll chalk it up to panic and grief making you say and do stupid things. Hopefully, Hope will come to her senses this week

I really enjoyed the aftermath of the explosion, I wish they hadn’t made it look like the explosion was only in the hallway when it happened and then suddenly everyone is under rubble. But I do like how they filmed things.

It supposed to be summer in Salem. Why is almost everybody in long sleeves and suit jackets? Will and Sonny looked like they were dressed for the winter yesterday.

 

And why do I have a feeling that Allie going to give birth to a boy and he’s going to be named Wilson?

Haha!  The only person dressed vaguely summer-y was Claire, but I feel like Days gave up trying to be seasonally appropriate with their wardrobe years ago.

 

I would laugh if the boy's name was Wilson.  I was thinking more like Adrian.  Just because Days loves to name their kids after dead people.

    • Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in solid gold. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. (did not see Naomi?) -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny or velvet or a textured fabric - I couldn't quite tell, but the jacket color was solid black) Vernon - black turtleneck, white shirt over it, black jacket. Andre - black tee, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket.

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her
    • @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with.

    • https://www.instagram.com/p/DJJTEW8J5EA/ 1989 Daytime Emmys Victoria Wyndham gives moving tribute to Douglas Watson, AW's Mac Cory Harding "Pete" Lemay created the character Mac Cory & then Doug Watson played him for 15 years. When Doug died on May 1st, 1989, it was a huge loss to the show, the other actors & also to the fans.

    • Jonathan Kellerman is definitely the most EON/Slesar-like writer in the business right now.  Unfortunately, he's almost 80 years old.  Interestingly, he has a son (Jesse Kellerman) who's about 45, who's been studying under him.  I believe what makes the Kellermans such effective mystery & crime writers is their background in psychology.  
    • I never understood the point of Marchetti. Summer left the show for a job there in Italy. OK. When she returned they had Jack buy the company. Why couldn't Summer have returned and simply stated it was not a good fit, she missed her home , family/friends etc It was absurd that this internationally successful fashion empire could just be bought by a US cosmetics firm at the drop of a hat. What was the point when they never did anything with it at all? Summer simply could have gone to work at Jabot. And wasn't there some nonsense about an offshhoot called Marchetti Home? Was Phyllis attached to that at some point? This show...
