I doubt he'd be available anyways because his show uncoupled was picked up for a second season by Showtime after being cancelled by Netflix.

Oh, yes, I saw that. Didn't click into place till you said it just now. Okay, we'll just cross him right off the list.

I couldn't stand him on OLTL. I haven't cared for any of his work.

I'm Not very fond of him Either but enjoyed his work on DH, it's fun

None of the cancelled soaps in this century were as BAD as Days is right now. Talking urns? The devil again? The three ladies are not really dead? (Which we all knew). Days is just so ridiculous right now. The move to Peacock has made the show even more dumbed down than on NBC. Maybe Bo & Hope can save this mess.

I never watched Passions but I heard it could go some interesting ways.

 

yeah todays episode was one of those episodes that makes you wonder who approved this?!

A big No to Tuc Watkins as Peter.

I agree -- I don't see him in that role AT ALL.

Yeah… if Tuc Watkins ever showed up on Days, y’all know he’d be a new man for Leo and nothing more 😂😂

Just finished today's episode. Complete garbage.

I was toying around with some ideas for a Peter return last night and I'm curious if anyone has thoughts.

First, I'd bring back Valley's Jack.

Then I'd have Abby come back with no memory where she went when she "died."

She'd be angry with Chad.

Over time she'd assimilate and run the paper with Jack, which would be a bigger part of Salem society with a SET and characters working there.

Then I'd bring Peter back.

On Chloe's arm at first, having met her out of town. She wouldn't understand the scandal at first 'til she learns he's the black sheep DiMera son and Kristen's brother. But he promises he's different now. There's genuine attraction.

I'd reveal Abby was with Peter when she "died" (though she'd have no memory of it) and leave the implications of that a mystery with Abby acting bizarrely at times and only Peter knowing why.

I may or may not let Jennifer entertain the idea of romancing Peter again with Peter gaslighting her but he'd mostly be battling Stefan over Chloe and his place in the DiMera family.

THEN... I'd have Peter KILL Stefan and FRAME Jack/Abby for it with the town believing Jack helped his daughter cover a mental break... and Vivian seeking VENGEANCE!

A throwback to Peter framing Jack for his "death" in '96.

Then, Peter (with Gwen) would STEAL the newspaper and use it to slander the Deveraux's with Chloe naive to Peter's true nature.

I'd involve Stephanie in this, (unwittingly?) being used by Gwen to hurt Abby. I'd have Gwen stirring the pot with Abby/Chad/Stephanie.

Chad and Jennifer would work to clear Abby's name while Stephanie doubts her innocence.

Then, on the eve of Abby's sentencing, Jennifer bursts into Peter and Chloe's engagement party to announce she's SUING the Spectator and has proof of Abby's innocence!

I'd wait longer before I reveal Peter killed Stefan (let him get closer to Chloe so she's devastated when she learns the truth) and play more with Abby's missing time and what Peter did to her and why, an arc of its own (revenge against J&J).

The fallout would put Chloe back at odds with Kristen as Kristen defends her brother against Chloe (and the Deveraux's) and Chloe turns to Brady for comfort.

I'd also have Vivian going after Peter and Kristen (who'd help him) like Hell. I'd pit Chad against Peter as well.

Any thoughts?

Good idea! It would be a good way to reintroduce Peter to the canvas

 Ron had a whole story written that went in the trash.

Is this why Ken’s pretty much given Ron free rein? As some kind of apology 😂😂

Zach Tinker has a role on Fire Country, which isn’t a Dick Wolf series. 
 

Ratings are good and it has been renewed, and ZT’s role looks like one with more story to tell, although he didn’t appear in the last episode.

Yep. Fire Country is another one of those Jerry Bruckheimer shows on CBS. Chicago Fire is the Dick Wolf series on NBC that has a common theme like Fire Country ....... it's called fire.

 

I won't comment about today's show. But, it does make me wonder why people do not watch soaps anymore.

Given that there are only 4 shows to choose from, I think soaps have a realistic niche market that if they get off their duffs & fix some stuff, that can be kept for a good long while.

Yes, Fire Country and Chicago Fire both have "fire" in common. That being said, they are not the same show at all.

This is not a Spoiler but it comes from a mag. What I would call it is WILD speculation. SoapHub opines, (1) what if Allie is pregnant & Alex is the father & she is fleeing to get away from him before it is noticeable? And, (2) also what if Stephanie is pregnant & Alex is the father & this drastically changes his life. Such as it is. GMAB! Yuck. Ptooey! 

Amidst all this nonsense. Nick using his powers made me laugh.  😂 I feel so bad for all the actors.

I know, right? It's like Passions but lacking of something. Well, budget is a no-brainer. However, my favorite part was when Nick used his powers to make Kate, Kayla, and Marlena to force walk towards the doors. 🤣 That scene was out of this world.
