Days of Our Lives: September 2023 Discussion Thread

@ranger1rg I think that I am resolved to agree with @carolineg's theory that it is different times of the day for different characters as we catch up with them.  For example, I assume Victor's memorial will begin Thursday, when it will be the next morning for the mourners (te he), but it will be the same day as the death threat for Harris and Ava.

Ever since the time jump, it is assumed that time and space work differently in Salem than in our universe.  So, it's less budgetary and more metaphysical...

There's only one person? Who the heck is he? Must be a he. 

Well, overall, I thought it was a good episode. I loved Nicole & Chloe remembering what good but snarky friends they are to each other! Oh, and, yes, I think that long hair is a wig. I've thought so ever since we met it. I feel like Nicole's hairstyles are characters & I do not like a lot of them!! 

JPL is growing on me as Phiilip which is probably a problem since I don't think he's staying. 

Do we know anything about Miz Hit Lady? Besides the fact that she is inept. And, about payment to a hit person, is it the thing now to pay upfront instead of holding back, say, half till proof is delivered?

I'm still stuck on Wednesday episode. Leo shows Sonny a picture of a shirtless Dimitri on his phone.

Sonny: You're in the right direction, he has two pecs.

Agree with Ranger. 

Now. WHaaat? There's nothing wrong with Judi's hair. As far as looks go in today's soaps, it's a short list.

1. DAYS Nicole's hair

2. GH Maxie - You just never know what it will be. 

3. GH Michael - At GH they say it's baby weight. I don't get it. His wife had a baby. He gained weight.

Yeah, that hitwoman really was the worst hitwoman ever. How the hell did she not have a passcode on her phone?

Harris/Ava going on the run seems kind of stupid. There has to be another way to bring them together then this. 

I liked EJ encouraging Johnny to not give up on Chanel. It really was just what he needed. I have mixed feelings about Johnny backing down again though. He should be fighting for Chanel and more determined to get her back. If he’s reluctant to do so because of all the other triangles he’s lost, he needs to talk about that more instead of just a throwaway line to someone, here and there. I wouldn’t mind him becoming more of a bad boy either. 

Btw, WTG, Tripp

Now that that’s finally happened, it’s time for some conflict lol maybe from a bad boy Johnny. Tripp and Wendy have pretty much been stuck in a bubble for a while now. This should all be tied together with Johnny/Chanel/Talia and Harris/Ava/EJ/Nicole/Eric/Sloan

It is an odd juxtaposition from the sexual liberation that we've seen in Salem this year, that these two committed to each other before having a "love" scene.  I mean, if Rafe and Jada can get it on while her sister is sleeping on the sofa, why do Wendy and Tripp need to be as far as possible from Li in order to do the humpty dance?

Not to go back to the time of day thing - but - why is Kayla telling Talia that she got the job, at the same time of day that Wendy's checked into the hotel?  And why does the hospital board (and the city council) only meet at night?

-- Now that Tripp and Wendy have screwed, there's nothing left for them. There's zero conflict, zero story.

-- Johnny definitely needs to be a bad boy again. It's insane that someone as hot as Carson Boatman is always a third wheel or someone who isn't chosen.

-- I still can't, and will never believe, that Talia is a doctor.

-- The Ava/Harris escape was ridiculous. Even though the budget is non-existent, DAYS should be able to do better than this. It's actually embarrassing. The actors were shot in close-up so we couldn't really envision the scene, and we were cheated out of seeing anything when Harris held the gun on security and 5 seconds later they were in front of a plastic green wall.

    • Bizarrely, while I didn't see it, I distinctly remember my younger sister telling me. We were walking to the store, and at the top of the hill she let out "Roger raped Holly", and I swear I remember it echoing for what seemed like forever. She would've been five at the time. 
    • I have my fingers crossed for a baby to be named Monica Michelle & called Monica. And, yes, I do realize that is not equal to having her onscreen but, like you said & of course a recast is unthinkable. 
    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.
