I am so over Alley Mills as Heather. Just throw away the key again for a few years. Don't understand how she one the Emmy with that over-the-top crap. It's awful.

And now that we finally got a cute, tight haircut on Jordan and even Willow has come back to a proper hairstyle (as a nurse and mother), please...for the love of God, will someone yank those extensions off of Finola's head! Those long, stringy strands look ridiculous on her. And now as Chief of Police (or Commissioner? which one is it?), her hairstyle needs to step up and become more professional than a 70s hippie. Unless of course she's really Alex. LOL!

I know.  I just wouldn't be shocked if it did happen either.  I feel like Ava has progressed beyond that, but I don't know where Ava goes now unless she goes back to full on villain.   That's what she should be doing.  I just don't know if the show wants to go back there.

Never

Yeah, Ava's only true currency is as an outsize villain. That's always been what she's best at and she's still an asset to the show in that role IMO. Can she run longer before getting killed off or sent to prison for awhile? I think she can - since she hasn't burnt through villain story as fast as, say, Alex Olanov on OLTL who still lasted a full 6 years after going psycho (and did it without wearing out her welcome because she kept changing roles and partners, plus there was a lot of comedy) - but I wouldn't spend another 2-3 years to get there from here.

I heard a different version of the story than what was recently mentioned here by someone - the way I recall Ron and Frank telling it at the time, they were only expecting to have Maura onscreen for a few days tops as Ava in 2013 to intro Kiki and NuFranco to the show. This idea of such a star cameo kind of boggles the mind to me and makes me wonder where they intended to leave the character originally.

Yes!  This was the outfit I was talking about.  It was not even a dress it was like a leather jacket on top of a leather top on top of leather pants.  It was a lot lol.   Lois has always had a unique style, but she was more edgy and bold.  This just looked cheap.  And what might have worked in 1995 when you were 25 does not work 30 years later especially considering all she was doing was talking to Chase's boring dad at a bar.

I'm just going to suggest that some of the time there may be choices made that the actor loves & the costume designer loves & some fans do not agree & that's certainly okay. But imagine if you will that they thought this was totally Lois. 

But, CG, you make a good point. Sometimes thinks read one way in the light of the wardrobe room & read another way on camera. But, I can assure you that this is not one of those times.

      Jill Farren Phelps was always very skilled at saying what she meant onscreen in the bluntest way possible, like whenever she wanted fans to support one character vs. the other (hence Megan McTavish groaning about having to write Kale Browne's Sam Rappaport into three days a week at OLTL). Perhaps you should consider doing the same. Historically your intent is always far more obvious than your efforts at coy embroidery anyway. You believe people are dismissing Phelps' accomplishments, and suggest misogyny and fan blinders allow people to too easily pigeonhole and dismiss her skill set. I think we all understand her varied skill set. We're saying it's not enough to make up for her deficiencies as a storyteller and creative. JFP was undoubtedly a skilled technical producer. As a solo storyteller, and de facto HW, she was a repeat and predictable failure. She was not the first or last EP (male or female) to think she was a writer. If you want us to stop taking your behavior personally when you suggest misogyny is at play in board opinions of JFP, perhaps you should consider spending the next 10+ years here not acting like you're the only one who gets it.

      Melissa was here today & we went to Michael's Crafts & Ofc Depot. In Michael's there were two beautiful LITTLE girls who kept staring at me, so I gave them a littel wave & very quietly said HI & then did back. I told Melissa they were staring at me. She smiled & said "Purple. A lot of little girls love purple & you forget but you have purple hair. Seeing you their whole imaginations are transformed! Thinking "That lady has purple hair. That means I can have purple hair! They had no clue before seeing you that it was possible." I just laughed & laughed.

      This opening scene is hilarious...it's like someone wrote out the script for Philip with one hand. And Rick...sniffing a scarf over and over. And in their next scene they are still sniffing the [!@#$%^&*] scarf as the camera stays all over Philip's bare chest and armpits as he keeps working out. Insane stuff.

      Bay City better be ready, because I'm back!   At Vicky's apartment she is once again drowning in doubts and jealousy. Deep down she realizes that her dream wedding will be a farce and nothing can change that. Bridget tries to calm her down, but the heroine is determined to suffer. She is not hearing any positive thoughts. She doesn't believe Jamie will marry her. At the Cory Publishing building another farce is in process. Iris, once again pretending to be the angel of love and sisterhood... is telling Mac and Rachel some wonderful news. When Iris has good news, you really need to look out for yourself. That's when things are bad. So what are the news? Miss Devil has put Amanda up for an award! Mac is smiling from ear to ear, and Rachel is suspicious. Maybe that's the effect Iris is looking for. To once again accent on the fact that Rachel doubts and criticizes her daughter. Iris will do anything to destabilize their relationship. She is like a cancer. Back to Vicky! Jamie is at the door. Looking like a sad puppy, he has come with a surprise. No, he is not gonna leave her and her unborn... Not yet. He has bought her earrings. Sad face. How nice. NOT. Victoria, of course... manages to break one of them the moment she touches it. Bad premonition maybe? She was back in hysterics. It's not easy to trap a man into marriage. Then you have to live with someone that didn't want you in the first place.  We were introduced to a new character (to me at least she is new) - Cass's sister - Stacey. She is giving me "hidden skeletons in the closet"-vibes. Love a girl like that. Stunning actress. I like her. The highlight of the episode was the strange and creepy reveal of Evan the escort... hugging someone named Janice's grave. I remember she had an issue with Rachel... and Rachel killed her in self defense I think... It was hinted in prior episodes, but I lack the context and story. I just know that everyone at the Frame house was mad that Rachel killed the bish. But I also got the impression that this Janice was sick in the head. So Evan is now talking to her grave and telling her he is going to ruin Rachel's life basically. Oh, Evan... I liked you better as a sexy gigolo.  Overall - 10/10 - how can I rate it lower when I haven't watched in months!!!

      DAYS: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      By AbcNbc247 · Posted

      Once again, Marlena and Kayla were used very effectively and I couldn’t be happier.  Marlena counseling Johnny and then Chanel was the best part of today. They’re really delving into the human emotion of this storyline and I think that’s a good thing. It feels so much mature than it was before. EJ’s fear about what could happen to Johnny if he doesn’t let go of his anger could lead to some really good storylines in the future.  I also really appreciate the way that Paula/Jeanne are mixing it up and having different characters interact with each other. It was nice to see Shawn and Johnny remember that they’re cousins and share a scene together. I liked the parallel that was drawn between the two of them, and what’s going on with their fathers. I did have mixed feelings about everything with Cat though. I enjoyed Chanel warning her about EJ, mostly because it played into the way that she was written today. But I wasn’t the biggest fan of the Chad/EJ scenes. The two of them discussing Chad’s potential feelings for Cat didn’t really keep my interest.  But above all, I feel that everyone is being used more effectively and that we’re getting a better understanding of everyone as well. And that was exactly what Days needed.

      ALL: Drag/Crossdressing Disguises in Soap Operas?

      It's a wild story for sure, especially the final conclusion (and fireworks offcamera, like Victoria Wyndham tearing into Michael Logan).

      "Secret Storm" memories.

      By Paul Raven · Posted

      I did some research and the story wrapped up with Eric,a caretaker responsible for Georgina's death who then  tried to do away with Laurie but a vision of Georgina spooked him and he smashed into a mirror, dying of glass wounds. So there was a supernatural element. I wonder if the Brody character in the credits was Eric Brody?
