Days of Our Lives: November 2023 Discussion Thread

Does it matter who "killed" Li? He will show up alive like everyone else in Salem. Their murders mean nothing. So why do them?

 

[Contessa Donatella]

I was telling my BFF about them giving him a backstory the day before he died & my opinion of his acting ability & she said maybe they were going to recast with a better actor & I said but he's dead & she said, "Donna, think." LOL! Right, dead in Salem means exactly squat.

[Soapsuds]

Li should've been killed long time ago. His murder now is very late coming.

[ranger1rg]

But leave it to DAYS to get rid of the guy the week he does his best acting.

He's been so below average for so long, and then those therapy scenes with Marlena show up -- and he was more than believable. He made me care about the character beyond the pretty face.

Two days later, Ron C kills him off. Because of course he does.

[Contessa Donatella]

You don't have to convince me. 

Do you have a new avatar? Who is it? 

[carolineg]

I think Li's murder will probably stick.  I really don't see any reason to bring him back.  He's barely connected to anyone on the canvas especially with the upcoming exits.  I am interested in who killed him because he was so random and I don't even know who would care enough to kill him.  I don't even believe Gabi cared enough to kill him lol

[j swift]

I hope they don't leave the phonecall to Gabi as a loose end.  Why did Li call Gabi to say that stocks were fake, if the board had already certified the vote?  It seems like a red herring to suggest that Li setup Gabi.  But how could someone stab themselves in the back?

[Contessa Donatella]

Completely agree! I mean, Li could've been the victim of a seemingly random act of violence or mistaken identity. I cannot imagine anyone with enough high emotion hatred to do him in, nor can I think of anyone putting a hit out on him. 

[Soapsuds]

Yes

Should I let the board tell you?

It's Chandler Massey.

[Contessa Donatella]

Of course it is! If he were my type I would really go for him.

For tomorrow's anniversary I turned to Maureen Russell's book & wrote about the beginning of the show. I was going for "feel good", great memories, what a legacy, yeah, I held it together until I was pleased with the words & added a picture from the first episode & then sent it on its way & then I just felt so let down.  What we have now is so fracking far away from their dream that it was like being gut-punched. OOF!

@JAS0N47 Besides John and Marlena, were any other couples married on the anniversary?  And were any characters born on the anniversary?

[JAS0N47]

I just checked the records, and we've had one birth and two weddings on the actual November 8 episodes:

Birth # 3. 11/8/68 (Episode # 758): Michael Horton.

Wedding # 113. 11/8/11 (Episode # 11711): Victor/Maggie. 
Wedding # 129. 11/8/18 (Episode # 13465): John/Marlena.

The only other birth or wedding to take place between November 6 and November 10 is

Wedding # 99. 11/9/07 (Episode # 10695): EJ/Sami.

Happy 58th Anniversary, Days!!! 

I liked John/Marlena today. It’s always nice to see a couple just be sweet and romantic with one another. And I loved the gift that Eric and Brady got them. I did chuckle a little bit when John mentioned supply chain issues; goes to show you how far back this was written lol 

Glad that Steve realized that Konstantin is full of crap. I wouldn’t mind him and Kayla becoming a part of this storyline. 

Still not feeling EOB as Theresa though. She seems to come off more like a drunk trophy wife as opposed to the Theresa that we’ve always seen. And is she ever gonna have a scene with her son?

And what was going on with Xander’s hair? It almost looked like a toupee that got caught in the wind
