DAYS: June 2022 Discussion Thread ⌛

[Soapsuds]

Seriously folks how does Ron Carlivati have a job still??

He is truly awful and has never cared about soaps or writing anything of value. He's horrible!

Hopefully, he'll do well with Beyond Salem like he did last season.

[Contessa Donatella]

I would hope that is one area where we could find agreement. The need to fix the writing.

[Soapsuds]

I didn't see the episode in question involving Cady acting. I'm holding on by a thread with Days.

If Zach Tinker and Chandler Massey pop ins weren't there I'd be gone.

Sometimes I wonder who's on contract....Zach Tinker or Greg Rikaart?

For me, it was years of seeing her name in print before ever hearing it spoken and I pronounced it “Caddie” in my head.

That threw me too. I rewound to make sure I wasn’t imagining things.

I wouldn’t be surprised by this. “Cady, Days wants you back… tomorrow. Courier is bringing you scripts tonight.”

[carolineg]

Her name always reminds me of Mean Girls when everyone pronounces Lindsay Lohan's character's name as Caddie and it's spelled the same way as Cady McClain's and she keeps correcting everyone that it's Katie.

To be fair, I think this is also a bit about the fact that people have a good idea how Missy - who is by extension Jennifer since she's played her for so long - would've played it. So the comparison will inevitable be there in people's head.

[Contessa Donatella]

There are so many proper nouns that I pronounce one way in my head & then a DUNE movie will come out with different pronunciations galore!

And why do two EPs go along with his lack of respect for the genre?!

[AbcNbc247]

Yeah, that's fair. And personally, I didn't think she was awful. I just was expecting more

That is, if they have any interest in keeping Jack and Jennifer on

I actually don't see the point of keeping Jack and Jennifer around.  I know that's probably unpopular and I like them for sentimental reasons, but their stories are stupid.  Jack continues to look like an idiot with Gwen and the rando affair he had with Kate.  I wouldn't be against resting them for awhile and bringing them back when they figure out what Missy is doing, recast Abby, and bring back JJ.

Unless Ron brings back Peter.  That is a story I do want to see with them.

Do you mean Jason? Or do you mean a recast Peter?

[carolineg]

I am open to Jason or a recast. I think Peter is someone who needs to be on canvas.  Maybe not full time, but at the very least in and out.  I think there is so much possibility there although EJ probably fills a similar role.

[Contessa Donatella]

I can see usefulness assuming they'd do a good job with his writing. He's been gone a long damn time but that could be made up.
