Gotta tell ya, I think this is the first time I've ever been glad that breaking news interrupted part of Days

Can't even begin to say how glad I am that I missed Ava's dream. I know all soaps have their hits and misses, but some of these misses are just ridiculous.

Days clearly needs new breakdown writers as well as someone to rein RC in because there's absolutely no need for this bear crap.

I think the issue with DAYS is that they just seem to be moving chess pieces back and forth. This is why I hoped that the devil would at least wreak some long-term havoc on the canvas and shake it all up a bit - unfortunately, everything the devil does haven't really had any long-term effects so far; I guess Paulina being revealed as Lani's mom could count into that, but not really because Paulina just went from being a mother figure to her to being her mother.

 

That's not to mention dumb plots like the obsession with that damn bear.

Yeah, that line made no sense. Add to that, the devil isn't horny for men or women. The devil has no desire for mortals. 

Also, has Johnny already been fully taken over? It seems he's the devil 100% of the time. The devil can sure take over quickly, as opposed to slowly worming his way into control. Ugh. They break their own rules of this dumb game. 

Wait. No love for Melissa Archer's elephant statue?

Let today’s Duke the Bear sequence live on with other Days other significant legendary moments  like Vivian and Ivan dancing as French fries, Mike & Carrie’s magical flying bed, Salem high chem lab explosion, Mermi the mermaid ripping off Chloe’s hair, Marlena falling out of her penthouse etc.

Duke wasn't even the worst part of the episode to be honest. I'd rather see that than Nicole having sex dreams about Rafe. What a horrible episode besides Steve and Kayla. 

Does the show have absolutely zero wardrobe budget? Why was Gwen naked the whole episode in her scenes with Abigail? That was ridiculous.

That's the next arc of their journey: after Duke the Bear and the porcelain cat declare their love for each other, the elephant statue will attempt to drive a wedge between them (while wearing a Duke mask, of course).

 

This [!@#$%^&*] better end with Ava being diagnosed with a brain tumor.  That's all I'm saying.

    • Also, isn’t there supposed to be a storyline with Mariah and Tessa? Mariah cheating or something (keeping some kind of secret) and they were only on screen 2 and 3 times this month. Like what? How am I supposed to care when I barely see them? 
    • Definitely wouldn't trust Dinah right now haha.  But that's great to know Billy comes back soon!  I'm excited for that. If he's at the boardinghouse, then I guess he does get closer to Nola perhaps, and then he'll be around Peter/Bridget and J, who is currently in his orbit along with Michelle and Dahlia, and Marcus is at the boardinghouse, so maybe they go the teenage story route most of this time until Billy gets back.
    • Sounds like me, but I prefer to be referred to as Contessa. We all know I can go a long time not paying attention to certain things.  And, if I might add, hey there dude, you effed up pretty good this time and I think this was your last chance. So don't let the door hit you in your behind as you go BYE MOMMY!
    • That did cross my mind at first, but I'd be more inclined to believe it if this didn't involve Trump. I'm not at all sure he is capable of being that sneaky. Of course, there's always a possibility I guess that his advisors are doing it without telling him, but that seems awfully risky. Trump is such a loose cannon you can never predict what he's going to do or say.
    • Whoa. She should have fought like hell to get that. Was it the greatest show ever? No, but it had a fantastic cast and was practically guaranteed to last multiple seasons because of its star power. Could have certainly led to bigger and better things. If it had flopped she could have always gone back to soaps. Judith Light broke through on a sitcom where she was basically second banana to Tony Danza. That grew into a very busy and distinguished career. The woman is still regularly booked to this day.
    • I could understand her being frustrated by the fact that she'd been in the business 10+ years at that point, and probably couldn't even get in the door. But then again, she'd already gone out for pilot season once (that we know of) and she and  her agent knew a 35-ish woman had a very difficult time in Hollywood. I know she did a few guest spots, but other than Designing Women, nothing I saw--not even a Murder She Wrote, and that show had tons of ex-soapers on it. I mean, God bless Marilu Henner, but even having been on Taxi, she couldn't get arrested for years either.
    • I didn't rewatch that period, so I'm not really sure how much Bill is on. I recall something about him living at the boardinghouse. I think Van made Matt his guardian, and why she didn't name Josh would be a mystery to me, other than the HW decided they needed to keep Bill in Matt's sphere. Nola is also his aunt, although they don't know each other well, and Van wouldn't have trusted her anyway. There's Dinah---but she's unreliable. Billy gets out of jail around NYE.

    • That's on Kimmer. As someone posted above...she was offered roles in pilots but she would be part of an ensemble or supporting. She didn't want that so she came back to GL. I don't know what she thought would happen..someone offering her "Here's Kimmer!" or The "Zimmer Comedy Powerhouse Hour" variety show..but her housefrau fans did not have the same pull in HW as they did on the soaps. Forbes and Watros knew that you had to take small parts to get noticed ands start a career in primetime. I know she was in consideration for the wife in Evening Shade, but when you go up against Marilou Henner, the soap diva looses. I could see her frustrated in a role like that, where she has to be the understanding wife with a bit of sass, but she could have made it work, if it wasnt for her huge ego.  I think it would have been an issue haveing all the powerhouse comedy actors surrounding...(lets face it..Alice Ghostly woudl have wiped the floor with her...) but it would have been a good launching padd.
