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?

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.

    • I saw a conversation yesterday with Liam with the 7 dwarves hat and Steffy -  I know she did not say re: Hope and Liam said - well look at Finn and you forgave him right?      I know I did not hear Steffy say “well but you can’t compare that to…”  For *uck sake someone call the bitch out!?     You’re right, we shouldn’t compare your forgiveness for the dude with devil spawn seed whose daughter locked you in a cage along with crazy stepmom/mom/Grandmother who has also SHOT YOU BOTH - and multiple murder attempts but you have to exist with them / Hope’s part in a takeover which you know was FAR LESS THAN CARTER BECAUSE HOPE IS NOT AN ATTORNEY…. Goodness no, no the same thing at alllllllll.   When they do Steffy’s absence at least let it be because they all find out what a manipulative ho she is in her own right.      
    • I think a lot of us still agree with that. I do hope that the resurgence in the soap world with Beyond the Gates will push ABC to either bring back these shows or produce a newer one.
    • So, this was fun. Elsewhere, friendly to polls, a poll on what do you want to see at the Nurses Ball. The Gio reveal got 18%, for Blaze to return & sing also got 18%, for Jennifer Hudson to do a cameo & sing got 10% and for Lucy to lose various parts of clothing got 9% but the huge one was the reveal of Drew/Nina sex which got a whopping 45%!  
    •   I liked the effect of the curtains closing. Yeah it was like the end of Act I.   Or maybe they are simply trying to emphasize the drama of the end of an episode -- instead of a random abrupt end that has happened in some prior episodes.
    • I posted this in the behind the scenes thread but I know this thread is busier so wanted to mention it here as well. During their instagram live yesterday, Daphnee Duplaix and Trisha Mann-Grant mentioned that they will find out this month if the show is renewed for another season. Just a heads up so we can keep an eye out for an announcement and keep our fingers crossed for a multi-year renewal!
    • They haven't explained the ownership of the Bistro, but Doug told Holly the other day he didn't get the job there. Basically Roman just hired Doug on the spot and gave him a room.  It was really nice of Roman.  I don't know if he knows who Doug is or that he stole Julie's necklace.  That was unclear-at least to me.
    • I'm not sure how I felt about it, but I do kind of like that it felt like the show telling us this concludes the first chapter of the series. Could be interesting if they only do it for big aftermath episodes. The biggest mistake with Martin is that it's almost hard to buy his anger because we've gotten no strong scenes with him and his parents. They've all been with Anita/Vernon. I can't even remember him ever even saying one word to Nicole, even in passing.
    •   Thank you! Agreed on both posts. And the comments about Mike Manning are nonsense. 
    • I haven't watched yet, but did they explain the current ownership of The Bistro?  Because when RonC was writing, wasn't he applying for work with Sophia?
    • I think Brandon has gotten better in normal day to day scenes, but he’s very over the top when the character is meant to be angry or agitated. I did laugh when she started yelling at Leslie and then when he started to throw all those damn books, lol. He needs an acting coach to work out some of these kinks.
