DAYS: September 2022 Discussion Thread ⌛

LOL And wasn't it amazing to hear Clyde give ALL the details to Chad? He coughed up everything in 2 minutes and answered all our questions.

I would have preferred to see Clyde marry Dumb Nancy and take her for a ride (figuratively, that is). I agree that Ron has ruined Nancy, but there's no turning back on that now. Arresting Clyde and not getting married doesn't exactly save Nancy, because now she'll cry about THAT and how dumb she was and is.

If only someone would reply, "Yes, Nancy, you are dumb."

Apparently, being an underwear model is the main requirement to play Ben Weston.

Only 3 months.

I don’t even remember if he was good or not 

[Soapsuds]

Anything is better than RSW.

I was utterly astounded that Clyde just sort of laconically rattled off details as if he was describing the supper special. I can only guess that a part of him had been thinking he was gonna get caught. And, I don't have any idea what would be good for Nancy!

Haha I’m one of the 750,000

He was good as Ben #1. I do not know if he could have played Neck Tie Killer but I wouldnt be shocked if he returned as Ben with a recast Ciara

[FancyShoes]

Is cursing allowed on this board?! Because umm…I mean…damn! 

[Franko]

Anyone want to bet on (a) Peacock burning off their remaining Days episodes, (b) when they start doing it and (c) the frequency of the burn offs ("Two episodes daily! Three on Saturdays and Sundays!")?

[FancyShoes]

It’s hard to say because while I think Peacock has the ability to be patient and see where the chips fall. 

[Paul Raven]

I don't think that would be a surprise to anybody, especially considering the short timeline and the demographics involved.

Have they started taping the Peacock episodes yet?

They're probably hoping word of mouth will increase the viewership.

[David_Vickers]

Rob was much better in the role.  Gaston was very bland, boring as Ben, however he was good as Chance on Y&R. 

[Contessa Donatella]

I imagine so. I would guess that one day they were taping for NBC & the next day they were taping for Peacock. The huge elephant in the room is that they're 7 months out. 6 months in the can & one month in the writing that is totally vetted & rewritten from notes. In other words, unless they do something to change it, February.

CORRECTION: NBC has reportedly lost nearly 750,000 viewers since moving the long-running soap opera #DaysOfOurLives to Peacock: https://trib.al/w6r0p4i #DAYS ( I just got that out of twitter & pasted it in as it was easier than trying to find a post to quote it from.)

Okay, so we have no way of knowing what kind of loss they expected. Given the backlash I feel sure that they were prepared to see a loss. Does anyone dispute that? Personally I don't think it's a sign we should all scream & run around in circles. We knew this would be an uphill battle. If we did, then sure as shoot they did!
