 Right now, nothing is worth $$$. So, i can't price the stories. I just wish it was better.

I wonder if I'm thinking about the right person on Chicago Fire. I like her.

I am truly sorry that is your experience right now. Been there, too, but right now I am more happy with the show. I'm afraid every day that will slip away. So far so good for me.

I signed up for Peacock originally to watch the Olympics - especially figure skating and gymnastics.   But I found their coverage difficult to navigate on my antiquated computer, so I ended up watching next-day videos on youtube.

I wish I could navigate Peacock's sports coverage better. I guess I need a more modern computer.

I was watching Chicago Fire episodes the next day on Hulu, because I like the display on Hulu better.  So I was going to unsubscribe from Peacock and just keep Hulu.

But then I learned that Hulu isn't going to host episodes of primetime NBC shows anymore, so I kept Peacock to watch Chicago Fire. (and Days if I feel like it)

I was gonna go look for a pic & just then I saw your post. Yes, I like her very much. I am a little crazy for all three Chicagos. Thnx for looking her up! I'm very annoyed that Jesse Soffer is leaving PD. He was on ATWT before Chicago PD. Excuse us, folks, we just fell into an off-topic rabbit hole.

[janea4old]

I apologize for starting that off-topic rabbit hole. I got into the tangent as to why I have Peacock.
I will post about Miranda Rae Mayo  as Stella Kidd in the primetime section later today.

But yeah I will go back to discussing DAYS on this thread.

I get Peacock free for year through Spectrum. Days is comfort food in a way. So i'm glad it's still around. And i do enjoy watching during dinner time. The other day i had a friend over and we watched Days. I had more fun goofing about Days with my friend. Then actually watching the show.

You are lucky to have someone to watch with in real life, even if it was just to snark about it.  Nobody I know in real life would ever be caught dead watching a soap.  They all think I'm weird!

It is lucky to have a soap friend IRL. I used to. But, soap viewing to me is enhanced even by online soap friends. I hate people thinking soap watching is weird. Soap fans are no more weird than are sports fans. Now, other reasons for being weird, that's okay. I'm weird & I know it.

Monday's episode was good, but the rest: zzzzz 

I'm glad it's only $1.99 cause yeah this show isn't worth $5 a month lol

I agree it was really hard to navigate-especially during the Olympics.  They have since removed all the Olympic coverage from Peacock unfortunately. Now if you go to sports and click on figure skating it's much easier to find.  Gymnastics doesn't have it's own icon for whatever reason so I usually go to upcoming in the sports icon or just search Gymnastics and you can find it.  I enjoyed their Golden Gymnastics doc and Meddling about the 2002 skating controversy even though it didn't cover anything new really.  Anyhow, without going into too many details of my life I am highly invested in figure skating and struggled for years paying for crappy feeds for expensive prices, so I love Peacock for that alone.

Again, for me Peacock is absolutely worth the $4.99 I pay because I watch it a lot.  I personally would still pay for it for Days alone, but I don't think Days is doing anything to make it worth it at the moment.   I do actually find myself watching Days consistently though because I can put it on anytime which is helpful.

I thought Monday was best. Tu & Wed. were okay. Th. & Fr. just dreadful. The only thing of Th. & Fr. that I liked a'tall was Allie going & asking Ava what her intentions were toward her twin brother. That was rich & you could tell that Ava got a kick out of it too.

I just do so wish that they would burn some of this stuff & write new & fresh & better. And, I'm sure they're not going to. But I do love that I no longer have to wait for the show to load at 8 pm. And, the two days when I managed to watch at 6 straight up I really liked.

[victoria foxton]

It’s unfortunately we have to wait almost 6 months for any new format tweaks to happen. I am not hopeful that anything will improve.
