Days: February 2023 Discussion Thread

Days of our Lives is not suppose to make sense.

The show has lots of things wrong with it. Too many to bother anymore. That's why I love seeing a few and my hot gay guys. If this show had any kind of decent writing I might care about the actual story instead of seeing Chandler Massey shirtless on screen.

I'm going on three weeks since I've seen an episode.

WTF is this dialog?
Today (Thurs 9 Feb), Leo and Gwen are discussing her disappointment with Xander.
Leo - "Tis better to have loved and lost… something… something. Shakespeare said that."
Gwen - "Actually Tennyson said that, but I appreciate your efforts."
Leo - "Really?"
Gwen - "Mmm."
Leo - "Huh, and I was a theater queen in high school. I guess I was too distracted trying to turn all the boys who didn't know they were gay yet."

Script by David Kreizman.

LOL! David Kreizman. God, I swear these maggots always be getting up into my tuna casserole where I'm about to serve it to a church pot luck. And going by @victoria foxton's post, I'd have to say that seeing chararcters have a little too much to drink and have "out of the blue" flings, then I'd say you're experiencing dega vu. Because you know, it seems to be the latest trend nowadays for every Salemite. And what's scarier is that they drink the cheapest alcohol when they do it. Talk about travesty.

Today is Bill Hayes' 53rd Anniversary with the show. Started back in 1970. Like many people he wasn't really sure what a soap was & was meeting people & all eyes & ears watching & listening & thinking about memorizing lines & wondering how hard that would be! What a wonderful career he has had! And how lucky we've been to get to watch.

It's bad enough that Leo is written as sexually harassing every man that moves.  Now the dialog is that he was inappropriate in high school, too.  And it's played for laughs.

I'm so tired of sexual harassers in soaps, to/from any gender.
I'm also pissed that People mag put GH's Luke and Laura on the cover today.
Just tired of all of that for all characters on all soaps.

Allie is horrible, but at least she’s self aware of what she’s done. But except for that, she’s still quite similar to another horrible young blonde over on GH

It was nice seeing Jen again. I really hope she sticks around for a while and that her and Jack are able to beat Gwen and Xander. It just kind of sucks that they’re the ones suffering just because Sarah and Rex decided to be scumbags to Xander

And Leo just needs to go away. He still has no purpose. And I see he’s gotten over his “love” for Sonny pretty quickly.

    • Dallas, Dynasty, Knots and Falcon Crest all had good runs but by 85 they had seen better days. I think they were a victim of the format. After several seasons seeing the same characters front and center viewers were bored. What was once fascinating grew predictable. JR, Alexis etc had to be front and center and after a while their schemes and shtick grew repetitive. JR remarrying Sue Ellen, Alexis constantly trying to get he better of Blake etc Unlike daytime, there wasn't the flexibility to bring in other stories and characters and maybe let the likes JR go backburner. That same mentality also invaded daytime with characters like  Sonny and Victor still peddling the same stuff after decades. I guess the same could be said for MSW eg every week Jessica encounters a crime and solves it,but I think viewers come to that format with a different mindset.
    • Daphnee and Trisha did a live stream on Instagram and confirmed they find out if the show gets picked up in May. This pretty much confirms they're on the primetime schedule like the Bell soaps. Fingers crossed we get a multi-year renewal announcement soon!  https://www.instagram.com/reel/DJSsYb7PDv8/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==        
    • I don't think Lois the character was there.  The Lois we knew from the 90s has pretty much died with this  Gio story crap.
    • Have to agree re MM. The goody two shoes character and writing doesn't help but maybe a more dynamic actor would help Brandon lift his game also. I found the song sequence a little OTT. First of all it should have been shorter and maybe the song fades out and just some music to accompany the montage. I think it would have worked better if Anita had have been alone after everyone left and started tinkling leading into the song, with Vernon coming in observing and then joining her for  a close moment. Everyone standing around felt a little too much. And that closing effect with the two blackscreens meeting was unnecessary. Just a fade out would have been enough.
    • HUGE THANK YOU FOR 1998-1999 EPISODES!!!

    • And sadly I think that’s the trivia Both Jeanne Cooper and Eric Braeden went with for years and years. Lol
    • But people were hating so bad on amc and the final year and the ratings sucked. Business wise they made the right call. Oltl who even gained some ratings back and weren’t they higher as GH at one point is a decision and never understood. 
    • Ann Williams was the first Maggie Powers on The Doctors but left to have a baby. Maggie was successfully recast so Ann picked up the role of Eunice (Jo's sister on Search for Tomorrow) and played that role for 10 years before being killed of in 1976. That led to her role of Margo on EON.
    • Looking at those totals it seems most contract actors are on a 1 or 2 week average guarantee. I assume contracts are still operating on 13 week cycles so you would have to know the particular actors contract starting date to work out their guarantee. The question remains as to what actors listed as contract are actually recurring? Bryton ?
    • Yep, that scene was at the conclusion of the Derek Thurston vs George Packard storyline, when Kay decided neither of them should run Chancellor.  By the time she put Victor in charge, Victor had been on the show for months & months with his Rolls Royce, his ranch, and Newman Enterprises.  SONY released some Y&R "trivia cards" in the late 1980s, and one of the questions was "who brought Victor Newman to Genoa City?" The answer on the back of the card is "Kay Thurston, to run Chancellor Industries", and it's a wrong answer lol.
