I watch with the CC on and it annoys me that she is credited as “female narrator” just as much as it annoys me how Macdonald Carey is identified as “male announcer”. I’m sure there are union rules at play but it just seems hollow and disrespectful to these legendary cast members.

I'll leave you alone when you learn the same lesson many people have been trying to teach you here for what must be close to a decade: If someone doesn't like a show and expresses that POV there is absolutely nothing you can fuckíng do about it. I myself have no opinion on Beyond Salem atm, but the question of whether someone can hold an opinion divergent from mine is quite clear. No debate, no calling for them to stop. You lose. Move on with your life.

Maybe they remember soaps from 30 years ago. Maybe they have standards. LOL

I haven't watched it yet, but I don't expect much. Days is so inconsistent. I FF'd 2/3rds of the last few main show eps I saw, but I finally (?!) made the decision to skip Ben/Ciara scenes.

That would be hilarious if it didnt come from a poster and thats you who always tell folks here how to post and do not respond here and there & just to move on. So you can do that but others cannot? Hypocrite. Take about a million seats.

There's a big difference between the smoke I have for someone trying to silence any critique of soap operas vs. someone who's never learned basic netiquette in the year of our Lord 2021. I may not like your random obsessions that often lead nowhere but at least they're not trying to infringe on someone's speech. Anyway, when you learn how to embed a tweet after 10+ years we can revisit this conversation.

YOU’RE the person around here to teach netiquette? LMAOOOOOOO 

Honey, I’m sorry I give you agita, but you really need to stop filling your head with me. Your rants are ridiculous but entertaining, especially since it’s easy to see that hypocrisy John mentioned. Your posts directed at me are all SMH moments.

Your speech hasn’t been infringed upon, so I assume you’ll get out the venom again. Actually, your timing is perfect. We can fit you in with Marlena and Doug in Salem.

Read Datalounge. Vee is quite unpopular there. That being said, Ron Carlivati is my hero. He does fantastic work. The Beyond Salem arc was genius and he has everyone in the biz talking about Days and the revisiting of the Marlena possession storyline. Bravo!

    • I don't think Lois the character was there.  The Lois we knew from the 90s has pretty much died with this  Gio story crap.
    • Have to agree re MM. The goody two shoes character and writing doesn't help but maybe a more dynamic actor would help Brandon lift his game also. I found the song sequence a little OTT. First of all it should have been shorter and maybe the song fades out and just some music to accompany the montage. I think it would have worked better if Anita had have been alone after everyone left and started tinkling leading into the song, with Vernon coming in observing and then joining her for  a close moment. Everyone standing around felt a little too much. And that closing effect with the two blackscreens meeting was unnecessary. Just a fade out would have been enough.
    • HUGE THANK YOU FOR 1998-1999 EPISODES!!!

    • And sadly I think that’s the trivia Both Jeanne Cooper and Eric Braeden went with for years and years. Lol
    • But people were hating so bad on amc and the final year and the ratings sucked. Business wise they made the right call. Oltl who even gained some ratings back and weren’t they higher as GH at one point is a decision and never understood. 
    • Ann Williams was the first Maggie Powers on The Doctors but left to have a baby. Maggie was successfully recast so Ann picked up the role of Eunice (Jo's sister on Search for Tomorrow) and played that role for 10 years before being killed of in 1976. That led to her role of Margo on EON.
    • Looking at those totals it seems most contract actors are on a 1 or 2 week average guarantee. I assume contracts are still operating on 13 week cycles so you would have to know the particular actors contract starting date to work out their guarantee. The question remains as to what actors listed as contract are actually recurring? Bryton ?
    • Yep, that scene was at the conclusion of the Derek Thurston vs George Packard storyline, when Kay decided neither of them should run Chancellor.  By the time she put Victor in charge, Victor had been on the show for months & months with his Rolls Royce, his ranch, and Newman Enterprises.  SONY released some Y&R "trivia cards" in the late 1980s, and one of the questions was "who brought Victor Newman to Genoa City?" The answer on the back of the card is "Kay Thurston, to run Chancellor Industries", and it's a wrong answer lol.    
    • I think someone said it did exist, but I can't remember.
    • The bit with the scarf reminds me of the fabled stuffed animal scene with Rick and Phillip. (That wasn't debunked, was it?)
