@xtr great to see your comments again and good to see someone else enjoying. 

 

I feel like at some point Shauna was mentioned. I just can't remember if they said she was still living at the house or if she had moved out. 

 

And I saw in the latest issue of SOD that Darin Brooks has a lot of projects he's working on (I want to say three off the top of my head, one a series for Apple+).

Wyatt and Flo have been in storyline limbo since Fall 2020. They got engaged later on and made a crossover trip to Genoa City related to Sally, but appearance have been scarce. The Flo actress is off contract by now and has not been seen in ages. Darrin Brooks is also off-screen for 99% of the year - and IMO; he is NOT missed at all.

Shauna had a MAJOR storyline with Ridge in 2020, but very little to do afterwards. She kind of fizzled away with Flo in 2021.

Zoe was unlocky in love with both Thomas and Carter. When the latter romance bombed due to his involvement with Quinn, Zoe left town abruptly in July (?) 2021 for a modeling assingment in Paris and never returned. 

As for Xander: I actually had to google on his exit because I could not remember at all. Kind of telling what a great character it was. LOL The google search was not that helpful either. So to the best of my knowledge, Xander got fired from Forrester Creations after keeping the babyswitch a secret together with Zoe. Zoe got eventually rehired at FC but Xander just vanished into thin air (as far away as in 2019???) because the show then brought back Zende with a new actor.

Zende is basically a new character with Forrester family ties.  There is nothing about this new version that reminds me of the Rome Flynn era of the role. 

Meanwhile last week, I was just amazed to see Paris' mother on a set that wasn't the left office of Forrester where she's always popping in just at the right time. LOL, this story has been told in such a vacuum, up until the wedding day.

@dragonflies you were right!!! THAT was worth the wait. I hope Li is not dead because she beat Sheila's butt and I was here for every moment of it. 

 

I do admit though that I found myself going (and laughing at it) as the car explode...wait...how did that happened?

 

Another Ken sighting! So I take these are going to be continuing. Sheila is more fun when she has a sidekick to bounce off of. 

 

This week definitely did not feel as coherent as it's been as of late. But I have a lot of stuff going on so I figured that might be the reason I feel this way. If I had a problem, it was the fact that poor Paris has been throw under the bus for Carter/Quinn. I was liking that Quinn was part of the story beat of Carter/Paris/Zende as she should be. But now that it feels like Paris is a placeholder on the road to Carter/Quinn rather than her own person, it just makes me side-eye Carter so hard. I guess Grace really and truly was right.

      His social media/IMDb doesn't have his age but from some posts he's made, I'm guessing 1989 is his birth year.
    • Here's the timeline, as I recall it being published. The WGA strike was 5/2–9/27/2023 Annalynne McCord was announced as being hired in December 2023, for a one-year contract https://deadline.com/2024/06/days-of-our-lives-when-to-expect-annalynne-mccord-peacock-1235975806/ RonC's first scripts back from the strike began airing May 31, 2024 (around Konstantine & Maggie's wedding) https://www.tvinsider.com/1137709/days-of-our-lives-writers-return-15000th-episode-storylines/ Her first air date was June 19th 2024. The actress has said she was not told who she would be playing until she started taping. RonC 's replacements were announced July 2024, with his scripts airing through April 2025 Side note: DAYS social media team seems to be playing fast and loose with BTS videos, in terms of how far in advance they film content, so we shouldn't assume anyone's current status, versus those who were there nine months ago.
    • April and her husband (Draper) are the "young leads" who tie all the storyline threads together.  They're normally in the center of the action.  In this particular storyline, Draper is the attorney who represents Paige Madison.  (The district attorney, Logan Swift, has given Paige Madison "temporary immunity from prosecution" if she will lead the police to the members of the Tobias Gang who stole the firearms.  But Paige mainly just ducks bullets from various gang members who pop-up to assassinate her.)    
    • It's one thing to post about a soap's rumors or gossip, which in point of fact we've all done. It's another to present yourself as the inside source who knows something to be fact that's about to break wide, then backtrack and call it just Twitter speculation. Between those two extreme poles you have to commit to one or the other. If I got something wrong, I'd say it. (Nor would I keep playing insider after what I pulled with Drake Hogestyn, which should've gotten someone permanently banned.) And regardless, you don't open with this 'news' you don't actually want to stand by yet by mocking DRW's extremely valid concerns re: how the Trina character and Tabyana Ali has been marginalized and put out to virtual pasture ever since the day NAC left. Her playing out her current contract in a C-storyline with Kai does not change that.
    • Yeah, I thought it would be more explosive or heated and it was kind of standard.  Both can do more with the material.  I just don't think the writing was there.
    • Daphnée and TMG are on Instagram live (as we speak) and are saying they don’t know why Maurice left.
    • Anita let SilkPress know what time it was!
    • Kat vs. Eva and Anita vs. Leslie were today's highlights.
    • TBF, the majority of Month 2 was them beefing up all the side-stories...mind you Duprees as well as non-Duprees...and it did not seem like people were taking to it as well as they were taking to stories in Month 1. If anything I feel (hope) that May Sweeps is going to shift...while dealing with the aftermath of the Nicole/SilkPress storyline...to the next big story aka Martin's Secret. But that's me hoping that Martin's meltdown over SilkPress jiggles some memories of his out...which I was already hoping would happen. Add on that Bill is involved in both stories now...that might be his way of being sure nothing happens to him now in light of SilkPress's antics.    And...same. I feel they did a better job than expected with Vanessa/Doug with me because I didn't even realize how invested I was until their talk at the hospital and Doug made that subtly blunt comment about their arrangement...making the various online discussions online real. And for me, relevant.
