DAYS: June 2021 Discussion Thread

To be fair, Carrie's hair wasn't outdated, it was just very 90s and seemed to follow every bad trend at the moment. I'm not sure that's on Christie or the hair department though. Hogestyn's was just weirdly out-of-date and pretty much once the mullet trend ended everyone started mocking it because it was so bad.

*gasps*

 

But seriously, I agree with @te.. Cuz 90s was not just the Rachel but there was also the Donna Martin (aka the blonde bob you mentioned) and what I liked to call the Brenda Welsh braids...which Sami was known to have every once in a while. But...all totally 90s.

 

Meh. Rachel Melvin's hair. lol.

Fair.  I was onboard until the weird late 90's stuff.   It just looked greasy and awful, but Drake just looked like he just never got a haircut ever.  There are times he still suffers from that today. 

I always thought Ali had that long ass hair way too long but she was young and it was good hair.

 

Rachel Melvin's hair is still so funny looking back.  I like a graduated bob like Megan Ward on GH but she was on another level.

To be fair to Alison, she's always kept fairly timeless styles and not really given into any obvious trends, which has made them age a lot better than the styles Christie was rocking, who were all over the place.

MBE has been rocking that cut since her GH days.   It's an overall styling thing with her.  Her wardrobe is awful 99% of the time.  The whole package is pretty bad.

 

AZ is someone else who has always had bad hair.  There were moments when she grew it out a bit where it looked okay, but it's never been good.

 

I remember being so happy when she cut it off and it was still really long.  My 90's Sami memories mostly consist of her having that long, long braid down her back.  But overall, Ali has been okay with hair.  People like KA, Renee Jones, Eileen Davidson, etc. come out looking fine from the 90's because they stuck to fairly basic styles. 

 

Missy and Deidre both cut their hair off in the mid-90's and I hated both of their cuts.  Deidre had such nice hair in the cage and then she cut it off and it made her look instantly 20 years older.  It was a real toss up between John/Marlena for worst hair circa 1997.

I am not going to lie when I re-watch Paris, I am like is it so bad Marlena?  Your wardrobe and hair are AMAZING and your golden cage is bigger than my dining room lol!  I loved the ball in Paris where Kristen just straight ignores her lol.  I love John at a freaking guillotine.  It's the difference between soaps then and now.  JER knew this was dumb but knew we knew.  Now things are dumb and they hope we don't notice.

 

On a different note, I was thought Rachel/the Lady in White was one of the most annoying characters in history.  All she did was moan and wail!!

I called that they were going to pull Ron's same Gigi/Stacey rewrite from the end of OLTL with this the moment they did it with Judi Evans' characters. I'm just surprised it's taking this long.

    • I would appreciate (if they're not coming), for future scripts to refer to them by their iconic hairdos.  For example, if Hope needs to call Chelsea because Bo has Sepsis, I'd like Shawn-D to say, "My Mom called Chelsea (the one with the sassy short black hair) for an update." Also, new rule, if Melanie does return, she needs to dye her hair back to red.  I googled who she was five times during Victor's funeral.

    • Broderick, thank you for all of the info [I edited for space]. I am so grateful for everyone filling in the blanks for me. I suspected the Nora/Eliot scene was very important and it was setting something up but I didn't know what. Can't wait to see it play out. The two actors had such a great back and forth. I should have made the Paige/Patty Hearst connection. I thought Paige was in love with Brian from the first episode I watched but it seemed as if they were brother and sister. Steve kept being affectionate with her so I assumed he was the love interest. Then she was affectionate with someone else and well..she's a very busy woman. I can't wait to see Frances Fisher show up. (I'm trying to be vague because I don't know what would be a spoiler in this storyline) Now it makes sense why Draper would be upset. I didn't get the whole background of why he didn't go to NY. I'm a sucker for good acting, so I might still side with April and Margo, if the writers don't give Draper more to do besides yelling.  He had more chemistry with Logan, but I know that's not happening.  Something else I noticed: the show really takes care with even the smallest parts. The acting is superb. Too often, I noticed on older soaps they don't take care with the recurring or day players (Ryan's Hope was so bad with this that I couldn't make it through some episodes). It's only been six episodes, but so far, the casting department was spot on.
    • I thought Dante was overreacting.  Gio made some mistakes but he's young and he tried.  It's not like he dragged two 14 years to a party and made them get blackout drunk.  Dante can have the initial upset reaction, but to go on and on was a bit much.  
    • His (adoptive) nieces.  Chelsea and Stephanie.  I think Abby was involved too, but I am not sure if they are related lol.
    • That was such a dark story. I never liked Swamp girl after that. And then the dating your cousin thing. I think wasn’t Max in a triangle with two of his cousins?
    • Thank you, @j swift.  I'm probably more sympathetic to Draper Scott than most audience members are -- even though I'm absolutely CRAZY about Ann Williams & her bizarre Margo Huntington character

      The more I watch these episodes -- and I've watched several of them a zillion times, I'm ashamed to admit -- you realize there's a WHOLE lot of passive-aggressive hostility brewing inside Margo Huntington about Draper.  She wants to take April AWAY from him and recreate the childhood that she never got to experience with April, because of the adoption 25 years ago.  Draper has sense enough to realize how heartless and vindictive Margo really is about other people's lives and their feelings, but he bites his tongue rather than poison his wife's mind about how horrible her mother really is.  And I admire him for that.  He's a sweet boy.   
    • Unfortunately, as the 90s wore on, Felicia started wearing as many gray and neutral tones as Giorgio Armani and Donna Karan could produce, and the shoulder pads deflated to a drop sleeve.
    • I think Dante is reacting how most parents would react. 
    • 5-2   Lord... At least the week started off well...I think. I don't know where to start.   Oh, yes, I do. It was mostly background noise to me. There was nothing to the majority of the characters that were on. Meaning, it was mostly characters that I didn't care for or I've gotten accustomed to just FF-ing through. Or just zoning out. Even the possibility that Michael and Lauren might have a story was just meh simply because we have done this dance before and Lauren was coming across like Michael was working for Sonny on GH the mob.   The biggest thing I really took away from last week was that the new costumer designer has stepped up her game again. It didn't bother me at all, but I wish there was some drama with this fashion. I liked Claire's outfit, LOVE Nikki's. And I continue to like brighter colors on Nick though I hated those pants. And I could go on about the clothes misses like Billy in that short sleeeve, but I digress.   The only things that held my interest...   THE SICKENING OF COLE. As soon as he started to cough, I went uh oh. I'm happy to see he might be getting a story. And I guess it shows how much history I have with the character that I care. But still...ugh.   ALL THINGS AUDRA. I admit that I was taken aback to see Victor with her at Crimson Lights. When was the last time he was there? I want to say recently with Kyle/Claire, but otherwise I still found the scene taking me aback. But I like her being soft with Kyle who actually came across annoyingly flirty for someone that hates Audra. I actually can't wait for him to eat crow. And since Audra is now being used to drive a wedge between Kyle and Claire, I have to talk about...   SUMMER'S EXIT. Mmmm...mixed feelings. It don't seem half as bad as others appear to see it. Yes, if I didn't have the context, it still seem odd that her part in the Kyle/Claire drama was barely touched on. And she interacted with everyone I felt she should interact with. But in the overall context...I still didn't mind the exit. Though it was abrupt.    I did like hearing that Noah and Allie are still together. And don't get me started on the offscreen Mariah drama. 
    • I'm sure old Reva/Josh fans saw the writing on the wall--and this was their pattern. They (or usually Josh) was so angry that they'd spend months yelling at each other, and then "boom", they were macking up on each other, regardless of who else they were entangled with. (This is the couple who slept together under HB's roof while Reva was married to him, after all.) "Always". *gag me*
