No to Freddie Smith but I can see him crawling back.

He wants to produce and star with his wife I believe in his own projects online. He said something about it costing a lot of money. (Waiting for someone from this board who shall be nameless to read this and shake his head and laugh).  He complained about being tight on money. I'm waiting for him to start a go fund me Video.

 

Preach it!!!

You're going to enjoy today's episode!

This is Days. "Fools" is the show's middle name. They went back and got Missy who went full COVID denier, they'll do the same with Smith. I'd love to be wrong but I've watched this show step on its dick about a hundred times and I don't know why people are always shocked and surprised when they [!@#$%^&*] up.

Right. Even though Ido not agree with her Politically, MR has 36 years of history with Jennifer

Freddie has 9. Chandler 10. the thing with Zach is that Sonny has life back in him now and even big Wilson stans are liking Zach as Sonny so DOOL would be stupid not to capitalize on Zach as Sonny when Wilson return to Salem

I see this as a test and the reaction has been positive

Wayyy bigger deal. She's been playing the role longer than Freddie Smith's been alive. Plus, there were a lot of other circumstances at play. Missy wasn't fired, like Freddie was, or chose to leave. And I completely believe that had it not been for Covid, Cady McClain would never have stepped into the role. I did enjoy CM as Jennifer, but Missy is a big deal.

The credits have been weird. First three episodes they had "Developed by" then listed Quan as Associate, Myers as Editor, then the "story" and "teleplay writers, followed by the remaining 'staff' writers. Episode 4 changed. They listed Ron at the opening as "written by" but listed all the writers in the final credits in the usual format except listed "Story by" for the outline writer title card and Teleplay by for the script writers. So we don't know who wrote the outline/story/breakdown for Episode 4.

    • On the subject of sets (seems more interesting to discuss than the actual show)  Some sets we don't see anymore Lauren/Michael apartment (haven't seen that in years) Victoria's house (are Marian/Tessa living there?) Apartment above Crimson Lights (I think Chelsea was the last resident) Penthouse (Lily's home) Chancellor Estate (Devon/Abby) Chancellor office (once Dark Horse) Nick's house GCAC room (used as residence/hotel room for several characters) Some of these may pop up again. The tack house,for example, was not seen for many months before being used again. Have I missed anything?
    • Thanks for searching through everything. Worked on them so long, just too lazy to check for those links myself, so I am glad you chose to do it! I guess I never did type out anything for 1973-1977 in regards to the preemptions, but they are on the charts at least (and this far back, they don't seem to do any of those "breakouts" anymore, so things are simpler in the 1970's, so eventually I could type those out). 
    • I dump on the Y&R sets problem all the time, but BOLD is no better -- and they're not even introducing new sets. All of their sets are years old, and very few look like they're inhabited by people with money. Is that going to change with this move? I'd rather they save the money spent on another remote, which is no better than an HGTV travelogue, and get some new/better sets.
    • The donut posts here make up for a Friday show that was barely meh. Aside from seeing Anna, I really didn't care much about anything else. While I understand the thought behind breaking up all the sadness with "other scenes," I'd rather they moved right to John's funeral. Instead of hearing a stupid story about John changing some minor character's tire 20 years ago, just move on to the crying. I also thought the Chad and Cat scenes were a waste. I realize not everyone is devastated by John's death to the point of not functioning, but going sky diving is a choice. By the way, Jack and Jennifer are giving me nothing on this return. Please leave asap. DAYS did such a great job with John's death, so ending the week this way was a letdown.
    • Add Dr. Montgomery to list of fine women on this show! I hope the show goes forward with Madison/Chelsea and then once they're developed, bring back Allison, who is now divorced or a widow, for a Madison/Chelsea/Allison triangle.  It would definitely be the hottest triangle in daytime.  
    • I wonder if Linda Bloodworth-Thomason had Kim in mind for any of her other characters/series. If they intended Allison Sugarbaker (Julia Duffy's character) to be more in line with who Suzanne was/Delta Burke's portrayal-persona, then I think Kim would have aced that. Yes, it would have been odd, Kim having previously played a different character (from a different family), but Designing Women wouldn't have been the first show with that issue. Or maybe Kim could have played Beth Broderick's role on Hearts Afire. Or Patricia Heaton's role on Women of the House.
    • Sony is probably waiting until Y&R’s lease is up as well. All of TV City is going to be gutted, so they have to relocate at some point. 
    • At this point Y&R's next step is to go fully green screen and have the actors Zoom from home.
    • I was just taking about this in the Y&R thread - they desperately need better studio space.
