Days: August 2023 Discussion Thread

So, July seemed to be a bit of a roller coaster ride, both on and offscreen. And with any luck, the right thing will be done offscreen much sooner rather than later. Ari Zucker told us to hang in there, and that’s exactly what I’m gonna do. 

As for onscreen, hopefully the ride will continue and not be bogged down in stupid crap, as we’ve seen so many times before

Not much happened today, but I thought it was a good episode. I always like those family/friend bonding scenes. And that’s always a lot better than rushing through storyline so quickly. 

I was surprised that they said that Marlena tried hypnosis on Abe and it didn’t work. That’s shocking

As for Brady/Kristen, the judge is an idiot and so is Kristen. Hopefully, this comes back to haunt everybody. And hopefully, that final image of Kristen all alone signifies something and that this endless Brady/Kristen loop will finally be over. 

I’m surprised Ron and co. didn’t give us another *wink wink* and have the judge be named Judge Santana or Judge Andrade

Boring episode.

The ruling by the judge was ridiculous. Rachel should've been awarded to the court and sent to live with foster parents. That way all three would realize how awful they handle the situation. Meaning Rachel, Brady and Kristen. 

I hope Brady moves on and tries winning back Chloe. Telling Kristen to go to hell. 

Marlena's reaction to  the news was hilarious!

Well, Marlena figured Abe would never recover since her one hypnosis session didn't work lol

The Brady/Kristen stuff will NEVER make sense.  Kristen was convicted of multiple crimes and implicated in like 1000 more.  I get she was pardoned, but Brady was never charged with any of those alleged crimes period.  How do investigations where he was cleared hold more weight than Kristen's actual crimes?  Kristen doesn't even have a lawyer, nor was she asking for full custody.  Belle must truly be incompetent. 

The only good part of the episode was John/Marlena.  They didn't really do anything, but a John/Marlena episode always get a bonus for me!

Sidenote-was Paulina supposed to be on camera with those sneakers?  They didn't go with the dress at all and I don't think we were supposed to see Jackee in those orthopedic shoes

She literally sat there and did nothing lol.  The proposal was for joint custody.  The hearing would be for that.  She would agree to the change the two parties proposed or not.  The judge just can't change primary custody on a whim especially on the flimsiest of evidence.  That's not how court or the world works at all.

I still don’t understand why Kristen wasn’t even investigated for the kidnapping. Wouldn’t that all have been figured out as part of the investigation into Brady pulling a gun on her?  It’s almost like it’s not being written by adults

I didn't even think of that.  The cops really must think Rachel is extremely intelligent and left camp and faked her own kidnapping.  Or was just hiding in her mother's house and her mother had no idea?  It's hilarious the cops immediately believe Rachel, the child, when she said Brady pulled a gun on Kristen, but no one will take Brady's kidnapping claim seriously.  I mean I get it.  I don't take Brady seriously either, but c'mon lol

    • I have to check out his Bela Garody on Search for tomorrow. He was one of the main reasons EON worked for me when I was watching. Truly unforgettable presence. Handsome in the most perverse and sinister way. They don't make faces like that anymore. 
    • My favorite moment in SOAPDISH is the HW taking the star to the mall in NJ to improve "morale"!! 
    • Oh no! The shoulder pads! I will mourn them when they're gone. Please tell me the head pieces and hats remained!?
    • Shout! TV has now added season 26. Not sure what the reasoning for that was, but maybe it was the one that was ready to go... 
    • It's AWFULLY hard to tell.  But out of the (approximately) 16 weeks so far in 2025, Bryton has only had about 12 episodes.  That's significantly less than 1 per week.  Once the actor drops down to less than 1 per week for an extended period of time (such as a 39-week cycle), I start thinking there's no contract in place for him or her.  Surely these folks aren't tying themselves down to a show for a guarantee of 1 or 2 episodes a month.   If I counted right, Bryton has had 21 episodes in the past 24 weeks.  They're either (a) about to kick into high-gear & work his ass off to meet his minimum guaranteed appearances, or else (b) he ain't got a contract that guarantees him squat.  
    • These contract guarantees of 1 ep per month are ridiculous. How can you even have a story if your character apprars 4-5 times in a month? It's sad.
    • It's hard to tell with some actors appearing on average 4 times in a month whether they're recurring or just on a low guarantee contract. Someone recurring  like Beth Maitland can be used a lot for several months then disappear. So the monthly tallies aren't enough to go by.
    • Of the so-called "contract" cast members, I'd venture to say these are recurring: Bryton James, Camryn Grimes, and (possibly) Michael Graziadei.  I've suspected since 2018 that Kate Linder and Christian LeBlanc are recurring.  And I believe we all know Miss Ordway is, because she said so. lol.  
    • Dante blaming Gio instead of his dweeb son and the other dweeb was just ridiculous. Gio's paternity story is going in circles with no reveal. I've already started fast forwarding Drew and his stupid ho Willow's story. Kristina's story is beyond dumb with no great payoff.
    • Sarah (with the English accent) isn't just some random character.  Sarah was once the housekeeper for Eliot Dorn and Margo Huntington.  One of the following 2 scenarios happened a few months ago: (1):  One night, while Margo wasn't at home, and while Oscar the Doorman wasn't at his post, a burglar sneaked into the private elevator, rode up to the penthouse, stole several thousand dollars worth of Margo's valuable diamonds and pearls, and tied-up Eliot Dorn and Sarah the Housekeeper, ensuring that Eliot and Sarah couldn't pursue the burglar back down to the lobby or phone the police to apprehend the burglar. OR --  (2): Eliot Dorn was SLEEPING with Sarah the Housekeeper, and the two of them conspired to steal Margo's jewelry and went on a lavish spending spree and then tied THEMSELVES up to make it look as though a burglary had occurred in the penthouse. Margo Dorn currently believes Scenario #1 occurred, and she's rather annoyed that the "incompetent police" haven't located her stolen jewels yet.  Eliot and Sarah know that Scenario #2 actually occurred.  When Sarah stopped by the Unicorn and saw Eliot kissing Raven Swift, Sarah snidely said, "Oh! This must be Mrs. Dorn!  Nice to meet you, Mrs. Dorn!" Sarah knew good & damn well Raven isn't "Mrs. Dorn" because Sarah worked for Margo Dorn on a daily basis for many months.  That was Sarah's not-so-subtle way of announcing, "I'll be paying a visit to District Attorney Logan Swift and letting him know that his wife is sleeping with you, and I'll be paying a visit to WMON to let Margo Huntington know that you're sleeping with Mrs. Swift!"  lol.
