I have to laugh at the hypocrisy of posters “boldly” telling us that they've stopped watching, or quit when it moved to streaming, and then crying over the loss of the Horton set.

There's a reasonable difference between a stunt and a slap in the face to viewers.  As a 40-year viewer, I would argue that stunts, from casting to plane crashes, are as much a part of DAYS history as Tom Horton's chair.  So, thanks for checking in and telling me that this is the final nail in the coffin, or an expression of anger from a fired producer, but I'm fine, and I am certain the set will be as well.

Good episode 

I like the way it’s all being written, even though they do seem to be hyping up Harris’ shooting as a bigger event than the fire, which it isn’t, but I think we all know who’s fault that is. But still the fire just seems so unnecessary. They had to have known that soap fans don’t like things like this. I hope the aftermath is as good as the spoilers are hinting.

Doug and Julie and Thomas were breaking my heart though. Too bad that he got cheated out of an Emmy lol

I liked seeing Tripp in Doctor mode too. 

And I am liking the Lucas aspect of the drug storyline, but honestly, why would anyone think that an apartment above a restaurant that everyone goes to would be a good safe house?

And, I enjoyed the Paulina/Chanel scenes. Paulina’s always at her best when she’s more subtle. But people still use DVD’s?

I think Clyde has to die.  I mean, he's already in prison, so that's hardly justice if he is sentenced to more time.

 And considering Sloan is going broke babysitting for Nicole while she's in Europe (jk), we need to see some justice equally applied to the men of Salem.

Yes!!! Who would think hiding someone above Brady Pub would be an idea AT ALL, much less a good one!!

When we saw this on Day of Days my very first thought was the ornaments!!! And, here, we are & we don't know if they were saved, or salvageable, or what???!!! 

I am somewhat dismayed that we don't know today, right now, where Xander is or has been! 

I have not personally seen any non-watchers speaking about Burning Down Horton House, but even if they're not watching I can understand why DAYS fans would hear about it & be upset. Sure, why wouldn't they be? I know that if this had happened at a time when I was on a break that I would still have been upset to hear about it. To me that is just natural. 

Today was 34 minutes long but how many flashbacks did we have? Was it 7? It was a heckuva lot! We might've only gotten about 25 minutes of new content!

All of that said, it was good DAYS.

To me, the problem with Clyde is that he's not very scary.  Joe Mascolo was somehow still menacing well into old age, so when Stefano made a threat, it felt as if something big was going to happen.  Clyde just seems smarmy and scummy.  So, it is hard to believe that the combination of Chad, Stefan, and Ava couldn't take care of him with one phone call.

      BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      By xtr · Posted

      Yeah, Martin really did make me laugh when him and Smitty jumped up to drag Leslie out. I am interested in seeing how this fallout will impact his storyline as well. Especially since he is so protective regarding his family/family's image. I am interested in seeing how he will interact with Eva for the time being, they did have a warmer interaction earlier on once they met. But he seems to have doubts about her possibly being Ted's right now. I wonder how long it might take for him to come around with her. I could see the younger generation warming up to her quicker than the older ones. Though of course I think there will be anger/tension for a while regarding the reveal and her role in it. Perhaps Naomi/Chelsea will ease up on Eva first then eventually Martin/Kat might down the line. I really do love Nicole. I'm glad that DD is playing her. She really is the heart of the family and also agree the show. She is so easy to root for and I'm looking forward to seeing how things work out for her. I am enjoying the development of most of the characters on this show. I enjoy most of them including Bill with his trifling self lol. I do feel that Bill's love for his daughters is genuine and that gives him some depth. A few of the characters I don't care for that much (like Bill, Ashley, Vanessa). I wasn't too big on Andre at first, but I am warming up more to him as the actor is settling into the role. I like most of the characters on this show. Also, I am interested in seeing what happens if Eva indeed goes and lives with the new doctor that was introduced. I could see this adding another layer to her story, maybe she will become more vixen-ish, on what type of relationship they end up having. And/or maybe she will end up becoming more hardened as she deals with being an outcast, especially if she falls out with Leslie as well. I think that AM will do a good job of showcasing the different layers of this character as she deals with the fallout of the affair/paternity reveal.

      One thing I thought about is if Hayley will have a reaction to Bill threatening to kidnap and sell a baby. That's another level of viciousness and with her just having thought she was pregnant it might make her feel some type of way.

      Looking back...Primetime Ratings from the 80's

      You're welcome. Fall 1982-Spring 1985 was the peak of primetime soaps. What a time to have been alive.

      Ratings from the 1990s

      By kalbir · Posted

      1990/91 Cheers, Roseanne, A Different World, The Cosby Show, Empty Nest, The Golden Girls were still Top 10 shows, and Murphy Brown and Designing Women became Top 10 shows. It was the following season that I think was the transition season for sitcoms.

      @xtr I loved Martin in Thursday's episode, he was almost a different character. I thought he was flirty, funny, carefree, and giggly. Glad I have someone to share my top 2 women(Nicole and Eva) with, I agree Nicole is the heart of the Dupree family, and also the heart of the show IMO. We rode into the show on the passenger side of her car, lol. What I am enjoying the most about the show, is that they did such a great job character building, because all I care about is the CHARACTER journey. Nicole, Eva, Leslie, Dani, Chelsea, etc. very invested in what's coming next. I even feel that way about Mona, Shanice, and Doug.

      Another World Discussion Thread

      By Xanthe · Posted

      I know we have discussed the fact that Another World seemed to be planning a location shoot in Finland that got cancelled. I came across this item from the syndicated Soapbox column published June 14, 1982. "Soap operas have been experimenting extensively with on-location shooting in recent years to enhance storylines and increase their viewing audience. A major drawback is the added production costs involved. Another World, for example, cancelled a special trip for Victoria Wyndham (Rachel Cory on the show), who was scheduled to shoot scenes in Finland. The producers felt that the high price tag, along with resentment of the cast members who also wanted to travel but were to be left behind. was enough to scrap the whole project."

      A few more thoughts about these last two episodes. I thought it was interesting how much disdain both Dani/Anita have for Eva. I thought it was amusing how Dani was calling her lying/conniving and how Anita pointed as if to say, "that part". They definitely are not here for her, and I could see them having harsh confrontations with her in addition to Leslie. I'm curious to see Kat's interaction with Eva on Monday's episode. I think it might be interesting if Kat (along with possibly Naomi/Chelsea) come around to Eva before Dani/Anita do. Of course, Kat will be understandably angry at her. But maybe a tiny part of her might feel sorry for her if she really does believe that she's Ted's daughter as well and that Leslie lied to her. I could see Kat confronting Eva again and warning her not to harm her family anymore. But I could also possibly see Kat admitting that what Ted/Leslie did regarding her was messed up as well. And maybe that will pave the way down the line for them to get along better. I also agree with the comments/speculation made in the threat that Nicole will eventually accept/probably love her someday as well. I still wouldn't mind if somehow Nicole ended up being her biological mother. They have both been acting like they care for each other in this storyline. Nicole somehow ending up being her mother would be soapy and provide some more interesting layers in this story. And regarding Andre/Dani's romance it seems like they are genuinely developing feelings for each other. I have missed episodes, so maybe more of this has been elaborated on. But it seemed like there was genuine affection between both of them when they snuck a kiss publicly in the hotel. And also, them both talking about going publicly with their relationship. I wonder what everyone's reactions will be should they be caught by someone together. Of if they flat out tell everyone about their relationship.
