Megan told Steve (Patch) that Thomas had kidnapped Kayla, so we are being led to believe that Peter is playing Thomas, but it has yet to be verified on screen

Also, as if a woman her age still buys print magazines (let alone a whole stack of them).

It's really Bo.  Megan lied to Steve that it was Thomas Banks.  Thomas Banks died onscreen in BS2. (Megan could have revived Banks, I suppose.)

This really is Bo.  Megan simply didn't want anyone chasing after Bo and Kayla.  Megan doesn't want anyone to know Bo is alive.

I don't think we are supposed to think Bo is Thomas Banks in disguise.  Although Thomas did "die" on screen Megan called him today and ask him to track down Bo.  So I guess the Bo we are seeing could be Thomas and the real Bo is somewhere else but........that hurts my head to think about.  I think Thomas is Thomas and Bo is Bo lol.

So, you have Peacock then. Do you have a VPN service? If you do that is optimized for streaming PeacockTV in the U.S., then you can watch current episodes of DAYS. You can be in the United Kingdom or Madagascar - doesn't matter. The VPN service provides you a U.S. IP Address to watch Peacock. I use CyberGhost on my computer, phone, and Fire Cube, so if you needed a recommendation, that's mine. I'm very happy with it.

Wow. The only streaming service I have issues with using a VPN is Prime Video, but I rarely watch Prime Video, so I don't really care. But, even on my Samsung TV, my VPN provider provides me with a private DNS address to use instead of Google or CloudFare. I very rarely have buffering when I'm watching DAYS. Or anything!

I'm just going on two clues that this is not Bo

1. The remarkably odd acting style seems to be foreshadowing that this is not actually Bo.

2.  The frequent notes that the other pod in Megan's lab predated Bo's death because they kept referring to the fact that Rolf had been able to maintain it for more than a decade.

However, my predictions are rarely correct and I am frequently guilty of overcomplicating simplistic plotting.

Oh, yeah! And my apologies everyone! I somewhat got carried away, but I tried to make it DAYS related somehow, lol!

Back to DAYS. Isn't that flanel on Johnny hideous or what? It's like something you would find in K-Mart that still has the popcorn and corndog smell. So wild.

It definitely hasn't been validated on screen either way, I am just predicting the end of the story. 

Given that the actors are only contracted for 15 episodes, we'll know soon...

The other thing that I wonder is, given that streaming is not dependent on sweeps weeks, is there any need to stretch out this story until May?

They only showed the Exterior (Front Entrance Area) of Julie's Place in 2022 (8 times), last time 10/20/22. The last time the interior was seen was 10/27/21.
 
Yes, as far as I know, the full name of the restaurant is The Bistro at Saxton's.

      Bay City better be ready, because I'm back!   At Vicky's apartment she is once again drowning in doubts and jealousy. Deep down she realizes that her dream wedding will be a farce and nothing can change that. Bridget tries to calm her down, but the heroine is determined to suffer. She is not hearing any positive thoughts. She doesn't believe Jamie will marry her. At the Cory Publishing building another farce is in process. Iris, once again pretending to be the angel of love and sisterhood... is telling Mac and Rachel some wonderful news. When Iris has good news, you really need to look out for yourself. That's when things are bad. So what are the news? Miss Devil has put Amanda up for an award! Mac is smiling from ear to ear, and Rachel is suspicious. Maybe that's the effect Iris is looking for. To once again accent on the fact that Rachel doubts and criticizes her daughter. Iris will do anything to destabilize their relationship. She is like a cancer. Back to Vicky! Jamie is at the door. Looking like a sad puppy, he has come with a surprise. No, he is not gonna leave her and her unborn... Not yet. He has bought her earrings. Sad face. How nice. NOT. Victoria, of course... manages to break one of them the moment she touches it. Bad premonition maybe? She was back in hysterics. It's not easy to trap a man into marriage. Then you have to live with someone that didn't want you in the first place.  We were introduced to a new character (to me at least she is new) - Cass's sister - Stacey. She is giving me "hidden skeletons in the closet"-vibes. Love a girl like that. Stunning actress. I like her. The highlight of the episode was the strange and creepy reveal of Evan the escort... hugging someone named Janice's grave. I remember she had an issue with Rachel... and Rachel killed her in self defense I think... It was hinted in prior episodes, but I lack the context and story. I just know that everyone at the Frame house was mad that Rachel killed the bish. But I also got the impression that this Janice was sick in the head. So Evan is now talking to her grave and telling her he is going to ruin Rachel's life basically. Oh, Evan... I liked you better as a sexy gigolo.  Overall - 10/10 - how can I rate it lower when I haven't watched in months!!!

    • Once again, Marlena and Kayla were used very effectively and I couldn’t be happier.  Marlena counseling Johnny and then Chanel was the best part of today. They’re really delving into the human emotion of this storyline and I think that’s a good thing. It feels so much mature than it was before. EJ’s fear about what could happen to Johnny if he doesn’t let go of his anger could lead to some really good storylines in the future.  I also really appreciate the way that Paula/Jeanne are mixing it up and having different characters interact with each other. It was nice to see Shawn and Johnny remember that they’re cousins and share a scene together. I liked the parallel that was drawn between the two of them, and what’s going on with their fathers. I did have mixed feelings about everything with Cat though. I enjoyed Chanel warning her about EJ, mostly because it played into the way that she was written today. But I wasn’t the biggest fan of the Chad/EJ scenes. The two of them discussing Chad’s potential feelings for Cat didn’t really keep my interest.  But above all, I feel that everyone is being used more effectively and that we’re getting a better understanding of everyone as well. And that was exactly what Days needed.  
    • It's a wild story for sure, especially the final conclusion (and fireworks offcamera, like Victoria Wyndham tearing into Michael Logan).

    • I did some research and the story wrapped up with Eric,a caretaker responsible for Georgina's death who then  tried to do away with Laurie but a vision of Georgina spooked him and he smashed into a mirror, dying of glass wounds. So there was a supernatural element. I wonder if the Brody character in the credits was Eric Brody?
    • AI has it wrong. David was working as an aide at PV Hospital due to failing to save his brother's life and refusing to continue as a doctor. His true profession was revealed later. Edna had divorced him while he was in Vietnam and he had no reason to be in contact with her. He had no idea that he had a daughter.  Ruth was Ruth Martin, she was still married to Joe, not Jeff. He was not deceiving Ruth as he believed that Edna was his ex. The poisoning story happened late in his run and probably introduced when they knew Gleason was leaving. AI's interpretation of him as conniving seems to based on that short lived poisoning story and other misinformation. For most of 76 he was involved in the Ruth/Joe triangle to the point where Ruth was ready to divorce Joe and leave town. Joe had to have surgery, David operated and Ruth suddenly realized she wanted to stay with Joe despite all the problems they'd been happening. David then got involved with Christina with Jeff and then Edna as complications. And he arrived late 75 not 76.
    • Interesting that they started going into a supernatural direction with ghosts - I don't think they really did that before? I wonder if it was a response to getting put so late in the afternoon and I guess trying to appeal to that former Dark Shadows audience? 
    • That makes sense then! Is there a place where you can read more Daytime Serial Newsletters? They sound very informative. Thank you
