Days: April 2023 Discussion Thread

Agreed.  You are giving up being a DR. for your boyfriend's super complicated revenge plan that not only happened years ago, but was also an accident?  

I actually laughed when Jada leaped from I think there is something sketchy about her alibi to Talia clearly did this!   That's your sister lol!  My first assumption about my sister if she was lying about her alibi is that she was hooking up with some guy or drinking and didn't want to tell everyone.  That's a normal thing people do in their 20's. I would never jump to that conclusion over tylenol (even if that was a really clunkly alibi)

Ehhh… idk. I’m not inclined to believe Ron’s biggest cheerleader about anything.

Would someone really not approve something good like Bo and Hope going off together, but would approve some of the crap we’ve seen in the last year? 

The show will probably take that “love makes you do stupid things” route

I think the things we've seen on screen in the last few years give credence to the idea that someone wouldn't approve a decent Bo-Hope story. It's pretty clear that "someone" has no sense of a good story or what the DAYS audience wants to see.

Today was a long one. 46 minutes.

For todays episode thumbnail, did anybody else have a picture of Zach Tinker?

I enjoyed all the family scenes today. They seemed to really take their time with every scene, instead of rushing them through them all. It’s nice to know that that bond still exists on Days. Peter/Kristian/Brandon/Victoria never really had any scenes like that before and I was impressed by what I saw. I just wish Shawn would have been featured more, that way we would have had more understanding as to why he shot Bo so easily. 

I also liked the closure between Hope/Harris. They were good together, but Hope belongs with Bo. I wonder what they’re going to do with Harris now. 

We definitely didn’t need another microchip in another brain, but we got to see Andrew again and that’s always good And at least we finally know what happened to Kate.

Angela’s “hold out for your hero” line was so cheesy, but I liked that too It almost felt like classic soap. 

Btw, congratulations Chelsea! I still don’t see why they don’t want to bring her back on the show. 

I guess. But does it come down to just one person’s approval or multiple people?

@AbcNbc247I got Zach on my thumbnail too.

I kind of liked that Kate's scenes harkened back to Lauren Koslow taking over the role originally on that fish boat, but it's Ron so it's probably just laziness. 

I am not even going to ask how a brain chip plays video of an actual event on a computer lol.

It's weird the show doesn't ask RM back as Chelsea, but it's nice to know she's living her best life offscreen.

I really don't have any complaints about today's show.  I wasn't wowed by it, but it was decent.

Can't stand the Andrew actor. His Jay Leno chin and that mole thing above his eye is just........ Ewww! And he can't act!  I don't even care enough to look up the actor's name. He should be gone!

Bo & Hope! I love love love them. Too bad that Ron Carlivati couldn't tell the story that he wanted to tell and TPTB interfered.

This to me was hysterical.  It's like a SIM card that you just pull out of someone's brain and then stick it into your computer.  Rolf's been conning Brady because that chip was in 4K, he didn't use a colander to come up with that tech

As for Jamey's tweet about not getting approval for a happily ever after, I interpreted that as meaning that due to Megan being on contract and staying in Salem they needed a different ending and wanted something that included possibilities for future returns of Bo&Hope.  I don't think there are production execs conspiring to deliberately keep them apart.

Finally, you'd have to have ice water running through your veins not to be excited at today's cliffhanger; it was pure soapy goodness.  But, I'm calling it again, if Stephanie's anger toward Harris turns to lust while searching for Kate, I will not approve.

@j swift I felt like once Andrew pulled that chip out of the plastic bag (Do they clean it?  Is there brain matter on it?) I had to stop using my own brain and just let it go.  Wouldn't the purpose of the chip be to erase memories or give Bo subtle suggestions to change his normal behavior?  It wouldn't be a chip that just video records Bo's actions from his brain.  It's Days so it's probably not even the silliest thing that has happen this week, but you can't even start to make it make sense.

How about that Bo was shot in the chest, but they also did brain surgery to remove the chip (that didn't require any head bandages afterward)?  Was there a two-for-one special on surgery in Greece this week?

Mubbles has got to go!

How long did Hope nap 5 min? She was gone all of 5 minutes and talked to Harris most of that time.

I just love Stephanie. My family is suffering but I'm horny again during a crisis. I need sex.

    • I’m hoping to start getting to know Vernon better this month. He’s really only been a bunch of noble and good tropes so far. I don’t want him to be taken down the way Ted has been, but it seems he was a long-running Senator and no matter what party you are, lasting longer than twenty years means you’re looking out for you (and not who you’re supposed to be looking out for) most of all. I want to get to know both Vernon and Anita beyond their Dupree posturing. Clifton Davis can sleepwalk handling the kind of material Christopher Bernau and David Lewis handled and I’d like to see more than just a saint.
    • I thought Emily/Hal was a really interesting pairing. And I think KMH played that version of Emily very well! It might not have been what people wanted from Emily, and the writing got pretty gross at the end, but I thought she embodied that character effectively.
    • Don't know if this exactly fits here, but it is connected: Does this abandoned building look familiar? It is one of those explorer videos - and the outside may look VERY familiar if one watched GH in the '70s and '80s!

    • So, I have been in the hospital all week. I am close to being up to date on my soaps. Now I have to go to the Infusion Ctr daily to get IV antibiotics, for 6 weeks. I am frankly exhausted. A hospital is no place to be when you're sick. Hooked up to machines that go beep beep beep all day & night long. Someone wakes you up every hour on the hour for something, either to stick you with needles or to take your gosh-awful blood pressure for the umpteenth time. So, you don't get any sleep. Now I have a central line, upper right chest. After they "installed" it, I said, I am now Borg. They just stared at me. Apparently scifi is not general knowledge. What happened? I have an infection inside my big toe right foot & it burned the skin on my foot. The burned skin is already better. It was like a bad sunburn. The infection inside the toe is the issue. Oral antibiotics won't even get its attention. So, IV antibiotics plus time.

        As Salem bids farewell to John Black on Monday, the "Days" family and fans say a final goodbye to Drake Hogestyn.   From his time as a young man playing baseball in the minor leagues for the New York Yankees to his almost four-decade run as John Black, Drake always did his best. And, while becoming a soap opera icon, he spent almost 40 years at "Days" telling the best stories and taking the younger cast under his wing to make sure they would do their best as well. Thank you, Drake, for the legacy you have left for everyone at "Days." The impact you made on the cast, crew and fans will never be forgotten...and that's a fact.
    • I found an interview with Joseph Breen (Will Jeffries) where he mentions that Reva was put in a coma so Zimmer could go to Hollywood to do a pilot (OMG, if ONLY it had been picked up, LOL) and that Sonni and Josh and Will became a popular with the audience while she was out of commission.  If you want to read the whole thing: https://www.authorsden.com/visit/viewarticle.asp?id=47394 Breen was known for being very candid in interviews, I wish I could find more of them. I seem to recall he made a couple of snarky comments about Zimmer, implying she was not above acting like a diva. Sounded to me like he had a lot of respect for Forbes (who went on to have a very strong and varied career after GL). 
    • I was so confused why Devon was prying into Nicks love life and then it clicked and I remembered they’re brother-in-laws. Shows how little I pay attention to this show anymore. I was like uh? Do these two even know each other this well?     
    • The Bell soaps, B&B and Y&R: cannot watch. If I went by the last time I did I would have to give them both D- but I really don't think it counts when you're not a daily watcher.  DAYS: B+ (Now this is with the knowledge that for years I have given this show a D- because I've been a fan for too long to give it the F it deserved.) GH: A+ (With Korte driving this bus to me the show is so much better! IMO we just had the best NB in so many years I cannot count!) BTG: A solid (Things I love, a few I do not, nothing I hate, still find it in general remarkable.) As always, thanks for doing this thread. I count it. I always look for it & I always post. 
    • Okay, I continue to maintain that what is so good about this particular reveal followed by umbrella storyline is that you can see & understand many different points of view where there is not one bad guy or one 100% right person.  About your stated opinion, that Lois & Gloria did the right thing, you know that this was technically an illegal adoption? For it to have been legal the father, if known, would have to have been informed & have signed off on terminating his own paternal rights. And, of course, it is clear how many people they lied to.  Personally I feel like Lois is going to take the biggest "public" blame with Lulu a close second in the blame category. I am looking forward to a tongue lashing I hope Brook Lynn gives to Gloria. I continue to be more than annoyed with Dante. First his attitude toward Gio with regards to Rocco & a drinking game & its results. Second his attitude toward Lulu. Meanwhile enjoying the show every day!
    • Lois and Gloria did the right thing I feel knowing it was Camila that raised Gio has BL feeling some jealousy No one is saying that Camila was a bad mother to Gio I believe it will be Gio saying that Camila was great to him, thanking Lois and Gloria to get BL to see truth
