DAYS: July 2021 Discussion Thread


Recommended Posts

Jason Brooks is walking sex (to this day) in a way that few actors can capture, so he’d be ideal, but that would absolutely burn that bridge with Missy Reeves. (I’d suspect that bringing him back, even as a recast, would be enough.)

I'm starting to have a hard time finding the motivation to watch again because I can't stand the Ciara/Ben stuff. I didn't watch yesterday. I'll watch eventually but I'm just not excited to watch episodes full of this Ben crap. They need to write him and Ciara out.

For me, Ciara and Theo were always supposed to be end game. 

I can not and have never been able to get into Ben or get the fan love for a serial killer. Having everyone act like he's this great guy makes them all look beyond stupid. If they just had to keep the actor around, they should have done the twin thing with him versus Stefan/Jake or one of those damn brain chips or have it turn out it wasn't him after all (as in Marlena and the Salem Stalker story)...anything would have made it just slightly better. No serial killer gets out of prison because they're on medicine now. Ugh. Honestly, I just FF through all the Ben stuff.

Theo should be on full-time in my opinion as well.

Agreed.   I was a Ciara & Ben fan, but with this most recent writing with him hallucinating Jordan, being crazed and very overly possessive of Ciara, I am wishing DAYS would axe him or at least have Ben go back to the mental hospital for a bit.

Agreed, bring back Jason Brooks as Peter Blake, it's long overdue.  If he can't or won't come back, then re-cast with Ted King ( I like that idea and agree B&B probably will axe him in 5 or 6 lol), or I still like William de Vry(ex-Julian Jerome, GH, ex-Michael Cambias, AMC) for Peter as well. Plus it's a no brainer to bring back Cady McClain in a longterm contract as Jennifer.  Hopefully DAYS will do this when Marci Miller(Abigail) returns from maternity leave. Jack without Jennifer doesn't make sense , especially letting all Gwen & Xander move into her house.

I can't help but continue to wonder if Universal Television were in Sony Pictures Television's place... just how influence they could pull in-terms of production of Days of Our Lives and improve it.

deVry is still my top choice for a Peter recast, as I do believe his chemistry with McClain and the other female cast would be palpable. However, if deVry wouldn't do it, then King would be my second choice of recast.

Let's hope when Miller comes back that McClain will be behind her, and then, eventually, Casey Moss!

    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
    • I need to listen! Forever & a Day was a fun soapy podcast to have available when I walked the dog.
    • A few years ago, Devon and Nick started a charity organization together, I think it's for housing in the community.
    • I’m hoping to start getting to know Vernon better this month. He’s really only been a bunch of noble and good tropes so far. I don’t want him to be taken down the way Ted has been, but it seems he was a long-running Senator and no matter what party you are, lasting longer than twenty years means you’re looking out for you (and not who you’re supposed to be looking out for) most of all. I want to get to know both Vernon and Anita beyond their Dupree posturing. Clifton Davis can sleepwalk handling the kind of material Christopher Bernau and David Lewis handled and I’d like to see more than just a saint.
