DAYS: September 2022 Discussion Thread ⌛

[Noel]

Well, the thing is ... the writers tried to write her tattoos in. That was so lame. There's nothing wrong with tattoos at all as I find it to be a form of art, but as far as the character of Queen Kristen, no. Just no. As I've mentioned back in February, I've got nothing against Stacy at all. I think she's hilarious as hell with a terrific sense of humor. It's so difficult to explain as the fictional characters of Queen Kristen and Annie Dutton "live" in me. They're a part of me. That's why I'm so awesome. 

Stacy would be good in Sons of Anarachy. Is that show still around?

The custody battle is horrible. They couldn't even use the courtroom set. FrankenStefan isn't any better. I had forgotten all about Chloe and Stefan. This soap isn't worth $4.99 or $1.99.

With Kristen's history there is no judge in history that would give her custody of a child

[te.]

With Abby's murder and Saleisha from Top Model and Lamon leaving do they literally only know when people are leaving the day before, hence the rushed scripts? You'd think they would be better at writing exit stories...

[Contessa Donatella]

But, they're using this ridiculous "catch-22" whereby Kristen got a pardon for everything, so they can't bring up anything except something new, which is why she is getting to say all this garbage before the judge & they just get to hem and haw. Supposedly their hands are tied, legally, by this huge loophole. It's very frustrating. As much as I am annoyed by the writing the past 2 days it is making me feel that frustration. It's like it's Belle's job to keep them from slipping & saying something. Fat lot of good she's doing our side!

Well, I hold it against Stacy that we have a NotKristen and I would rather have just that No Kristen unless it is good enough for Eileen to come do her thing for a temp period. So I'll just be an old meanie. I really tried for a long time to give Stacy a chance. Didn't work out!

[te.]

I will say this - they do drop hints who the murderer is...

Okay, so the best deal works out to be 8¢ per episode, so reframe your question, Th custody battle worth 8¢? Fr. custody battle worth 8¢? Now, we'll have some Final Jeopardy music while we await the answer. Oh, yeah, anyone can answer! This is the Free For All round!!

[Contessa Donatella]

I think its last season was 3 yrs back. So's she's gonna need a time machine! The last I heard of one was Pine Valley's. The good news is that no one is using it.

Typos galore!

The custody battle isn't worth someone paying me to watch it lol.  

I still have no problem paying for Days, but if you break it down by story most aren't worth paying for.  I am paying to see 1 or 2 I like.

[Contessa Donatella]

I have no problem with paying to see either. I think if I could have it cafeteria style that I would pay by character, so I wouldn't be paying for the custody battle either because I wouldn't pay for anything Kristen/Stacy. Also wouldn't pay for Alex, Leo, Clyde, Nancy, Orpheus, so that's 5 characters I would not pay for. Oh, one more: I would not pay for Gwen.

[Noel]

LOL! So, getting my calculator here ... since you're paying to watch DAYS and there are 1 or 2 storylines that you like, then you're paying roughly around $1.60 - $6.40 as the storylines last for about a month lor two. But, hey! At least you can get caught up on America's Got Talent and Password. For 8 cents a days, DAYS is starting to sound like one of those Sarah McLachlan ASPCA commercials.

ETA: No, wait! I have to do my calculations again!

Actress Miranda Rae Mayo appeared on DAYS as Will Horton's boss (the magazine editor) "Zoe Browning"  from August 2014 - July 2015.  She was awesome and her character even sparked a little with Chad.  She was in only 16 episodes but I found the actress to be memorable.

I followed the actress after that.  She now stars as Lieutenant Stella Kidd on Chicago Fire.  She rocks.  I love kick-ass female characters like oldschool 1980s Anna Devane.

Watching her on Chicago Fire is why I have Peacock.  I don't care about anything else on Peacock.

Honestly, I have had Peacock for a few years.  I pay for it for the figure skating coverage alone and would with or without Days.  Plus I get Sunday Night Football and Real Housewives and Gymnastics.  Days is like a new thing Peacock has more so than the reason I signed up.  So in the end I am not a good judge of how much Days is worth.  If Days got cancelled I'd still keep Peacock.

I mean, there isn't a whole lot on Days I want to pay for.  The nostalgia and seeing Deidre and Drake are most of it.  But if I only watched and paid for Days I guess it would be around that price lol.
