My opinion obviously doesn't matter at all, but as someone who posts in this thread a lot about Days it is exhausting to read the back and forth and non-show related posts almost daily.  It's not hard to scroll or just ignore but it really just clogs up the thread.

Yes. I'm guilty of writing a recap, but it was about Abigail's murder. I was trying to put the missing pieces together. I got fake mask, rain coat, and two steak knives. Then to find out it's Clyde, lol! And that recap took me a long time too!

The recaps honestly don't bother me.  It's all the other stuff non-Days related.  

I actually do have a couple of Days related questions about today though.  Is this the first time RC and MA's Jack have ever shared scenes?  I don't think they ever were on at the same time.  Also, I thought by the time Mike left he was fine with Nancy/Craig.  I remember Carrie being fine with them, but she was on longer than RC's Mike.

Wasn't it the other actor who played Jack? The only thing I remember is Mike and Carrie. And Sami was trying so hard to get her sister and Mike together so she could get Austin. I remember the Chief of Staff stuff and Nancy constantly dissing on Alice's doughnuts. Hahahaha! I loved that.

RC's Mike shared most of his Jack/Jen scenes with Mark Valley and Stephanie Cameron I think.  I really did like Carrie/Mike.  I can't even remember why they broke up anymore.  I liked Austin/Carrie a lot too, but by 1997 I was so over Austin's stupidity of Sami.  It seems like Mike is still single?  Maybe him and Nancy will meet up for Korean BBQ in New York and fall in love lol.

It's true that since the 12th I have posted some recaps, which to me are just show commentary, but today's the first I've known of people not wanting them posted & I certainly won't be posting any now that I see so many new faces here in this thread objecting to them.  I made a single post about Morgan Fairchild's many character names. And I have been posting every day about the 2 shows I watch. I took part in some conversations about past ratings & about past network expansion in threads that were about those things & I typed up some out of the Hayes autobiography for people in the Y&R - Old Articles thread because they were wondering if SSH had said anything about that stuff.

The Marlena/Kristen scenes were cringe, especially since there was no logical reason for them to be together. None.

The entire episode was filled with awful acting, which honestly, was the only enjoyable thing about it. Once you see Drake H make his "I smell a fart" face and every scene after that is filled with actors (some competent, some not) doing their worst work, all you can do is revel in the mess.

The Nancy/Mike scenes did not work for me because it was all rushed. Going from intense anger to "It really was nice to see you" with a 10-minute conversation is ludicrous. And no, Mike throwing in "I thought I might be gay when I was in high school" doesn't make me applaud Ron C for his tribute to history. It's time we stop thanking these writers for ONE LINE surrounded by an hour of trash.

I did have to laugh at Nancy's excuse for what she did when she was with Craig: "It was a bad time for me." I mean, isn't it ALWAYS a bad time for Nancy? Isn't that ALWAYS her excuse? The woman NEVER makes good choices but always blames someone or something else.

Leo and Craig? Jesus...just make it stop. Somewhere between years ago and 2022, Kevin Spirtas forgot how to act. Leo? Still and forever annoying.

Is he? No, I forgot all about him. The only weirdo I knew was that dude who played Roger Thorpe's son. I'm going to check it out. Thanx! Honestly, I thought that the (ew) comment was because he wasn't a good recast.

ETA: Just read two articles. I honestly did not know that. No one's innocence should be stripped away like that.

    • Tbf it's not unusual for a family when they are dealing with some bad news that changes a life to use song to give out hope.Especially black families. I personally had to deal with that very thing this weekend. Partly off putting, but at the same time, I did get the point and it gave me a bit of hope in the moment.      MM is definitely acting. But Smitty is just so passive. It could turn into quiet strength at some point, but for now...passive IMO. 
    • Am I remembering correctly that the Madison's lived in a Spanish revival-style house? I have a vague recollection of the fireplace looking especially Spanish in style. It is unusual that Montecello had so many architectural styles.  Obviously, that might occur IRL.  But, look at other east coast soaps and there is a definitive style that is throughout (because it was styled by a set decorator) regardless of the income of the occupants.
    • @kalbir MSW was a powerhouse for CBS. Angela Lansbury was a superb actress. In 1985, TV viewers were tiring of the primetime soaps and the like. People wanted storytelling and MSW was great at that and had great guest stars. Storytelling -- an amazing and novel concept. CBS Daytime by 1985 was beating ABC so CBS was on the upswing.
    • I'd say just the opposite - conflict means they will find out and then be at odds. For the limited amount of time people on this show have conflict (if they aren't named Nina or Ric, I guess).
    • Totes mcgoats (aka I agree). But, now the character needs to move forward.  Clyde's exit was 12/11/24.  It is May.  She and Chad have been on one date. I don't think they've slept together. And she was only planning on sticking around for a year.
    • That is one of the best insults I've heard in a long time.  I burst out laughing when Kat called Eva that.  LOL Their scenes, of course, were really good.  Colby and Ambyr have so much chemistry.  The only thing I'd change is Kat saying "you're dead to me."  That's a phrase usually said about someone you care about.  I would've preferred something like "You will never be my sister," or something similar to that.  Nice contrast at the end with both mothers/daughters:  Kat comforting/consoling her mother, and Eva being locked out by her mother.  Yeah, I wasn't a big of fan of the singing either, especially after your daughter's life has been destroyed.  What?  LOL And I also agree with those that thought Dana/Leslie's scenes with the Dupree's didn't feel right since Eva is not a Dupree....unless she is.  But as of right now, she's not. 
    • Trisha Mann-Grant, Ambyr Michelle, Sean Freeman are destined for bigger and better things. They need to move on as soon as their initial contracts are done.
    • Daphnée Duplaix and Trisha Mann-Grant on Instagram live, 5/5/2025 just concluded, saved here https://www.instagram.com/p/DJSsYb7PDv8/                
    • I really need to see Anita in a scene that isn't with a family member. In fact, I would have preferred that she would have gotten rid of the mob and had a one on one with Leslie to lay down the law with her.  I'm going to say it, Mike Manning has been completely lifeless on this show. Other than people's superficial fondness for him, I don't get what they see in him as an actor. I never saw him on DAYS though. The show had another really strange cut right before the opening credits where it looked like they almost cut off Nicole mid-sentence.  Kat/Eva are carrying this show on their backs. Lock them in for lifetime contracts, I beg.
    • There's a 1980 scene of Victor and Katherine in the Chancellor Estate living room where they went over a contract that would put Victor in charge of Chancellor Industries, but it was rewritten that Katherine brought Victor to Genoa City so he could run Chancellor Industries.
