Hi, gang! It’s that time again 

Please register in order to view this content

What will be in store for us this month on Days… especially now that it looks like the end of Bo and Hope’s return has been completely botched? 

Maybe this month, we’ll find out who’s actually responsible for this mess. Uncle Ron and his biggest cheerleader (who’s finally leaving Ron’s writing team, thank God) or some clueless suits over at Peacock? Who knows? 

As for what’s happening onscreen, will this month be May Sweeps or May Sleeps? Let’s find out

DISCUSS!

EJ and Belle’s scenes today seemed so random. There didn’t seem to be any point to them. Plus, EJ was out of character. He’s not the type of man to rely on somebody else to get something done; he’d do it himself. But if it means that the Shawn/Belle/EJ triangle is going to be revived, I’m all for it. I hope they weave more characters into it as well. 

Andrew’s support of Harris seems a little random too. But Colton and Steve do work well together, and I’m curious to see how rescuing Kate is going to play out. For them and for Roman and Steve. 

And yeah, I still can’t believe that Bo and Hope are just gone. I hope we find out the real story as to why it happened like this.

EJ and Belle scenes are worthless. Belle reschedules her day to be with EJ but not Shawn?

I just want Harris and Shawn to have angry sex. Just because I don't care for their scenes.

The Kate redux story is typical Carlivati. 

Mumbles has to go!

The Bo and Hope updates is what we're reduced to? Why did they bother bringing them back?

In all seriousness if the show is going to revisit the EJ/Belle story they need to be careful. I mean on one hand the chemistry between Dan and Martha is very strong and the characters connection is wonderfully complicated. However at the moment Shawn is in a serious crisis and he needs his wife desperately. Yes Belle can be pretty selfish at times. But if she begins an affair at this point it would be pretty hard to show any sympathy towards her. But then again it may add layers to the story. Good people can from time to time do things that are unsympathetic. If Belle does this we must see her suffer for the consequences of her actions.

Well, I’m glad I’m not the only one who finds SB/Harris hot

Agreed.

We can add this to the growing list of reasons as to why this storyline should never have ended last year. If it had continued, Shawn shooting Bo could have been the thing that brought him and Belle back together.

I was confused when Belle said that she was in trial on a case.

We can assume she didn't mean Chanel's case because that was either dismissed or hasn't gone to trial.

In January it was mentioned that she and Shawn were living in South Africa helping their daughter, and we know she is not a member of the Johannesburg Bar Association. 

So, is this just an unnamed litigant or have I missed some recent detail?

Also, on Friday EJ was jealous about Nicole, but today he's flirting with Belle.  Is he just an F-boy like Alex or do his emotional connections change on a dime like his Aunt Kristen?

If today was part of a plan to make Alex a likable good guy, it still isn’t going to work. There’s too many factors that are up against it.

Idk what to make of Colin’s plan. I think it could be good if it’s taken seriously, and Ron leaves his biases out of the writing (which he didn’t do today when Allie was mentioned) It could be gritty and realistic, which the show really could do with their storylines now that it’s on Peacock. And he did look good today too. Was he wearing Xander’s shorts?

Speaking of Xander, we don’t need another pissing contest, with him and Brady. EJ and Stefan is enough already. That’s another storyline where the envelope could be pushed and as a result, stir up conflict for Brady and Chloe, instead of using the same tropes again.

But I’m glad that apartment set is going to be used again.

      I know Passions used this trope with Ethan and Sam to drag out the paternity, but GH seems to speed through certain stories while dragging others.

      BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      By AbcNbc247 · Posted

      Agreed, that there was some strange choices in the episode, especially at the end, but overall, that was some great drama that opens up the potential for so much future storyline. Kat vs. Eva having the most potential, especially over Tomas. I have mixed feelings about Martin/BC though. I thought he did pretty well in scenes with Smitty/MM, but the scenes of him confronting Leslie and of him throwing the books were bad lol she acted circles around him.  It’s similar to what Harding Lemay said about George Reinholt at AW; he could be brilliant in one scene, but then mediocre in the next.

      I know some of y'all really like Brooke Kerr, and so I've tried to give her a shot, despite her frequent flat line readings and distracted "did I leave the front door unlocked?" facial expressions. But lord, she is so bad at playing a tough-talking badass that I was actually rooting for Brad today to spill the beans to Drew.

      Googling does tend to ruin it.  For those of us who were teens in the late 1970s and early 1980s, you can't imagine how much fun it was to watch the show in the afternoons.  (It came on right after school.)  There weren't any "spoilers" at the time.  We would always try to anticipate how each crime and each mystery would be resolved, and we were ALWAYS wrong, because the stories are filled with so many weird twists and turns.   The head writer (Henry Slesar) and his dialogue writer (Steve Lehrman) invariably toss genuine clues directly into your face in the most unlikely ways, but then they provide a host of "red herrings" to completely confuse you and send you off on the wrong path.  Once the story reaches its conclusion, all you can think is Why didn't I figure that out weeks ago?  lol

      The Saturday 8pm slot usually had the lowest rating of the NBC 4 sitcom lineup for some reason. NBC let Saturday night fizzle, They used 9.30 pm to launch 227 and Amen, both of which moved to earlier in the evening but they  kept Empty Nest following GG for several seasons.  Empty Nest should have moved to 8pm with their strongest new sitcom at 9.30, anticipating that GG would eventually falter. Instead they left them there and stretching the sitcom pool too thinly on other nights. When Grand talk over at 9.30 Thurs maybe Night Court and Wings could have been used on Saturday.
