That Tootsie clip belongs on the OLTL thread, LOL.  That's Anna Wolek Craig as the producer director.  One of the very first soap characters I ever watched, since 1969. I didn't know actor names back then, just the characters.  She is indelibly burned into my mind as Anna.

Whatever happened to Johnny's movie? Is he ambitious or a con?  Does he have a job?  Did he have money prior to moving to Salem that somehow got taken away, so he is forced to couch surf?

Did Johnny and Allie graduate from college in Europe, or was Allie just there to party? Does she share any of the same body issues that plagued her mother (which would suck given that she owns a bakery)?  Did Chanel grow up with as much access to privilege as Johnny and Allie?

I bring up all of this to say, one of the errors that I see in the writing/casting of legacy family characters is that their character traits are assumed by their generational status rather than established through dialogue and acting.  DAYS has the luxury of time to tell stories but both of the twins have been on screen for a awhile and we know so little about what makes them tick.

After today, Alex ought to really take some lessons from Stefan on how to charm a woman 

Please register in order to view this content

Though I do think it's a little stupid that EVERY person in Chloe's life forgot her birthday. You could still bring Stefan and Chloe together without something dumb like that.

And, I won't give anything away, but if Kristen's gonna do what I think she's gonna do, then somebody needs to beat the holy hell out of her when this is all said and done

Just as much as you did 

I guess the movie was axed after all the devil stuff and TR's death.

I'm five minutes into today's show and I'm about to turn it off. 

I'm tired of Kristen and the actress playing her. She sucks!!

Brandon Barash needs to be written off the show.

The Opherus story reappears out of nowhere. This soap is a mess.

Its nice seeing Stephanie and Kate.

This soap has way too many villains on the show. It's overkill!

One last set of questions to round out September

Does Dr. Rolf live in Salem? Is Rolf his first or last name? Are we to believe that Kayla and Jennifer could see him at the grocery store or in the town square?  Does he have a spouse and a family, or has he committed his life to science?

Because why is Rex going to solve the medical crisis rather than Dr. Rolf who developed the toxin, so he could more logically develop an antidote. 

Or, why don't people blame Kristin for not asking Dr. Rolf to develop an antidote?

    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
    • I need to listen! Forever & a Day was a fun soapy podcast to have available when I walked the dog.
