DAYS: February 2024 Discussion Thread

I think you have overestimated how many viewers care about the Hortons. No one who started watching in the past 30 years is a hardcore Horton stan. We watched in the 90s and 2000s and we know Marlena’s family has earned its place at the centre of Days of our Lives.

Ooohhhh….your name tells me everything I need to know about you.

Nevermind!

Welcome to my world. The only way to handle this is to report it enough times or address it publicly so that the admin is inclined to do something permanent about it. I regret not reporting stuff more often over the years tbh. But whatever.

If she didn’t wanna do it, she wouldn’t do it.

She did four episodes of Beyond Salem and jumped at the chance to do it.

She also did five episodes of the main show in 2021.

I’m certain she’d be up for filming 1-3 episodes a month. Kristen, Susan, and her other characters don’t need to appear any more frequently than that.

Except when they don't. The troll you're thinking of was J*nnysbro and his various alt accounts (some of which may still be active). We were told to just ignore them too, but that ultimately became impossible and finally action was forced. Ignore is a useful tool I employ often but it can't be the only tool available to a community in certain situations, and things have changed over the last 15 years since the wild west days of SoapZone or Mediadomain. Especially when stuff actively discourages posters from a small but very loyal posting base to stick around. I still believe in a community maintaining itself mostly holistically, but it has to be a two way street. If more oversight means people like me take more lumps too I have no problem with that.

The show could bring back the entire New Zealand contingent - Will, Sonny, Allie & a SORASed Arianna. If they'd really write for them, I'd personally love to have them back. I'm just not sure the show should add without first subtracting. And, I'm afraid Ron wouldn't let go of the people on my cut list. Frankly, I'm not sure I get why Will can't write from anywhere. By rotating cast off & on the show created this monster where DAYS actors have other gigs & then the other gigs make them unavailable when they're needed. GH has people with other gigs but they seem to do a better job of working around schedules. Of course, I would want Allie to have a new girlfriend & for that to drive Chanel right out of her mind.

I wonder how many of those subscribers are actual women

And yeah, of course they won't go dick out here, but at least it would bring some promo to the show as I doubt a slight show of butt will get much social media traction these days.

Welcome back, Tate! We’ve missed you.

I’m liking angry Tate. Let him be messy and angry but also still have that good, heroic side to him too. It makes sense considering who his parents are lol and that could also play into Brady and Theresa’s storylines somehow. That could be pretty good to see. I’m looking forward to when he and Holly finally have their reunion.

Jamie Martin Mann did really well today too and I hope that

The Everett/Bobby stuff seemed a little convoluted today, but it would make perfect sense if the show continues to take this route and make him the villain. Sort of like with Tate, he could also play into Stephanie’s and Jada/Rafe’s storylines. 

And, we finally got to see what Tripp and Wendy have been up to! I wonder how they’re gonna get out of this lol and I’m glad that the whole storyline is finally reaching its climax, especially now that Ava’s confessed everything. Hopefully, Clyde dies at the end of it. 

I thought she did a pretty good job too, but I wonder if she would be willing to come back, especially if her exit had something to do with Fired Guy. 

Plus, Ron totally had it in for Allie.

    • I've always said, Robert Newman does not get enough credit for the popularity of Josh/Reva. Had he stayed in '91, and had years to build other relationships before Kim returned, I'm not sure we'd have been stuck with "always".
    • 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 know,,,which I find extraordinary. I have toyed with the idea of watching Another World for Maeve, Kathleen Widdoes and Beverlee. But watching Vanessa call Emma Snyder "momma" kinda weirded me out. LOL. I believe that's what I read in the recaps from the time as well. I meant, I couldn't quite believe that the audience wouldn't understand that a woman preparing to go to her engagement party  was raped. I know that on ATWT John raped Kim while they were married, resulting in Andy, but I think they shied away from calling that marital rape.
    • 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?
