Awww that is a cute story, too. 

 

Smh. Again, sad, but true.

 

Yes, I see the potential in and felt the advils falling from the moment, they started to hang out a few weeks ago. And Brooke is overdue a scandal that does not involve Sheila.

B&B needs to shore up Carter’s character with more backstory and perhaps the introduction of some more family. He’s so bland and I have no idea who he is or what drives him other than a terminal neediness for female companionship. He’s not fleshed out at all. He’s a hot body and that’s it.

Which was the point Brad Bell was trying to make with him. An upgrade. Someone who only had eyes for Steffy. He said it in all these interviews. And he gave them some good writing. He gave them drama that writes itself. He...basically committed. I would hate to see that fall to the wayside just to give Hope/Liam something to do. 

 

He can find something else for them...which he appears to be doing without even having to touch on Steffy/Finn. Who right now deserves a bit of happiness like all good soap couples get. Sheila is waiting in the wings so we know they will be back in the story sun.

Liam's too worried about Thomas and Hope working together and crying to mommy in law to kiss his boo boo lol!!!

Casey said on a BOLD LIVE with John McCook last week that Steffy/Finn fans will be excited as the year comes to a close, so either they're having another baby or something else good.

Yeah, that's how I feel about Carter, too. Smokin' hot body and a handsome guy, but he's so bland and mellow and boring that he does nothing for the show, let alone for me. His neediness is ridiculous -- talking to a female for 5 minutes means he's in love.

I stand by my earlier theory BLame coupling with some new twists:

Hope is tricking Thomas. Liam secretly sees Hope hold hands with Thomas or kisses him on cheek, which *is* cheating on B&B.

Liam gets drunk. Meanwhile, Brooke is babysitting at Steffy's. Brooke, frustrated that all the dark haired women (Taylor, Li) are getting her men, tries on a hideous wig Taylor left behind at Steffy's. Brooke falls asleep on the couch. Drunk Liam lets himself into Steffy's. The rest is a blameless Brooke scandal.

THIS! 

I would say bring on his mother played by a soap vet i.e., Amelia Marshall or Tracey Ross. But we know Brad's attention span when it comes to characters who aren't Brooke, Eric, Taylor, Ridge, Hope, Liam, and Steffy. He would bring on a family for Carter and then they'll be gone within six months. With little to no additional development to his character.

LOL that would be some Days of Our Lives type ish lol!!!

 

To the poster above, I don't get why they don't bring on Carter's family, isn't her related to Marcus Forrester? Plus Justin is related to Druscilla on YR why not bring over Lily's kids or something as a cross over since they're cousin's

Someone needs to do something about this lackluster soundtrack. I actually liked some of the scenes from the last episodes... and I couldnt stop feeling that some of the old soundtrack music would have MADE the scenes so MUCH BETTER. How is it possible that they are playing this... calm... tranquil music while there is a fight going on... Someone needs to do something about it.

      DAYS: June 2025 Discussion Thread

      By AbcNbc247 · Posted

      A new day in Salem… and a new day for Days.  I like the way everybody found out and absorbed the news about John’s death, and how they all eventually found their way to Marlena’s to offer their condolences. I’m not particularly sure why they waited until the next day to tell everybody but I don’t really mind it.  We finally got Roman’s perspective! His scenes with Kayla were one of the best parts of today. I’m glad that Roman is thankful for everything that John did for his kids. I agree with posters who said that he should’ve had a scene like this with John, but I’m happy we got this at least.  Julie was used very well today too. She’s definitely the best person for Marlena to have scenes with at the moment. Hopefully, Julie continues to be there for her. And yes, I totally agree with Marlena and Belle sending EJ away when he came to the apartment. I’m curious to see what’s going to happen to his and Belle’s relationship in the aftermath of all this. And, while I enjoyed most of Brady and Kristen’s scenes, I still think the ship has sailed for them. Hopefully, the aftermath of John’s death causes Brady to finally end this thing with her once and for all.  And, I see a lot of people were wearing some kind of shade of purple today.

      DAYS: Current&Former actors live video tribute for Drake Hogestyn

      By Wendy · Posted

      Wow, I love that current and former actors are participating in this. I barely recognize Staci Greason! She looks fine, just very different. But I will be happy to hear anecdotes from her. I shipped RoJohn and Isabella hard back in the day, and I sobbed buckets in my dorm room at college when Izzy B passed. Honestly, I'm interested in everyone's stories. Drake seemed like he was well loved among the cast.

      When she first appeared, I was sure she was setting Tyrell up for a prank. She was too much of a manic pixie dream girl- I wasn't surprised Tyrell also became suspicious. Now I'm not so sure. If Jessica genuinely likes Tyrell, it seems like a missed opportunity to not have started her out as a bully, then we see her gradually catch feelings for Tyrell.  The McBrides are definitely the "C" family of BTG. They always get last priority. There have been a few times where the Doug/Vanessa/Joey characters reference off screen conversations which seem too important to not show us. Like when Doug thanked Joey for giving him extra time to pay off the loan. When did that happen? Or when we abruptly moved from Vanessa/Joey at Uptown to Vanessa/Doug in the hotel room. The McBrides don't even have their own set - even though Vanessa is a realtor. It's a shame because I am a fan of the characters and actors.

      I am also adjusting to KR as Ted but I feel that AM and MJ had way more chemistry as father and daughter than AM and KR. We saw Eva dream of having a real relationship with MJ's version of Ted for months so it's a bit of a bummer not to have that payoff with the original actor except for those scenes in MJ's last episode.  Something I noticed about Eva today is how she takes genuine delight in being a schemer. As badly as she wants to be a Richardson, she still has so much of her mom in her. It was jarring seeing her earnestly promise to steer clear of Leslie in her scene with Ted, then immediately switch attitudes when her mom showed up.  I'm very surprised with how quickly the accident story has been moving along. I was sure that it would be months if not years before people figured out it was Leslie on the motorcycle, not to mention responsible for the potassium overdose. I'm looking forward to seeing how MVJ and Guza avoid writing Leslie into a corner.  Finally, I have been loving the Articulettes story. Bonita Brisker was just the right amount of OTT - remember Sharon is supposed to be even more angry than Tracy is. If Sharon didn't come in swinging, people would say she fell flat. The way Sharon and Tracy describe the breakup is so Supremes-meet-Original Recipe Destiny's Child. I get the sense that MVJ is re-writing the Return to Love Tour as a roman a clef, and I love it. I'm looking forward to finding out what the secret they share is. If Dante Green is as shady as Berry Gordy was, it's something dark. If/when they go through with the reunion, I expect Dante to show up and claim to own the Articulettes trademark in a Lou Pearlman-esque twist.

      Other than hanging out with Liz, all of Lucky's stories have been stalled out or dropped; the relationship with his son; his wanderlust. He hasn't been involved in any of the action/adventure or con artist stuff. I don't think he's even had a scene with Sidwell since the latter came to town. He's a real after thought. I doubt he's long for the show.

      Seeing Nicole and Martin together reminds me of watching Alice with Mickey Horton in the 90s and 00s. The seem more like peers than mother and son.  The younger half of the cast (35ish and below) is playing younger, and the older half (35+) is playing older.
