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.

    • A new day in Salem… and a new day for Days.  I like the way everybody found out and absorbed the news about John’s death, and how they all eventually found their way to Marlena’s to offer their condolences. I’m not particularly sure why they waited until the next day to tell everybody but I don’t really mind it.  We finally got Roman’s perspective! His scenes with Kayla were one of the best parts of today. I’m glad that Roman is thankful for everything that John did for his kids. I agree with posters who said that he should’ve had a scene like this with John, but I’m happy we got this at least.  Julie was used very well today too. She’s definitely the best person for Marlena to have scenes with at the moment. Hopefully, Julie continues to be there for her. And yes, I totally agree with Marlena and Belle sending EJ away when he came to the apartment. I’m curious to see what’s going to happen to his and Belle’s relationship in the aftermath of all this. And, while I enjoyed most of Brady and Kristen’s scenes, I still think the ship has sailed for them. Hopefully, the aftermath of John’s death causes Brady to finally end this thing with her once and for all.  And, I see a lot of people were wearing some kind of shade of purple today.

    • Wow, I love that current and former actors are participating in this. I barely recognize Staci Greason! She looks fine, just very different. But I will be happy to hear anecdotes from her. I shipped RoJohn and Isabella hard back in the day, and I sobbed buckets in my dorm room at college when Izzy B passed. Honestly, I'm interested in everyone's stories. Drake seemed like he was well loved among the cast.
    • When she first appeared, I was sure she was setting Tyrell up for a prank. She was too much of a manic pixie dream girl- I wasn't surprised Tyrell also became suspicious. Now I'm not so sure. If Jessica genuinely likes Tyrell, it seems like a missed opportunity to not have started her out as a bully, then we see her gradually catch feelings for Tyrell.  The McBrides are definitely the "C" family of BTG. They always get last priority. There have been a few times where the Doug/Vanessa/Joey characters reference off screen conversations which seem too important to not show us. Like when Doug thanked Joey for giving him extra time to pay off the loan. When did that happen? Or when we abruptly moved from Vanessa/Joey at Uptown to Vanessa/Doug in the hotel room. The McBrides don't even have their own set - even though Vanessa is a realtor. It's a shame because I am a fan of the characters and actors.

      I am also adjusting to KR as Ted but I feel that AM and MJ had way more chemistry as father and daughter than AM and KR. We saw Eva dream of having a real relationship with MJ's version of Ted for months so it's a bit of a bummer not to have that payoff with the original actor except for those scenes in MJ's last episode.  Something I noticed about Eva today is how she takes genuine delight in being a schemer. As badly as she wants to be a Richardson, she still has so much of her mom in her. It was jarring seeing her earnestly promise to steer clear of Leslie in her scene with Ted, then immediately switch attitudes when her mom showed up.  I'm very surprised with how quickly the accident story has been moving along. I was sure that it would be months if not years before people figured out it was Leslie on the motorcycle, not to mention responsible for the potassium overdose. I'm looking forward to seeing how MVJ and Guza avoid writing Leslie into a corner.  Finally, I have been loving the Articulettes story. Bonita Brisker was just the right amount of OTT - remember Sharon is supposed to be even more angry than Tracy is. If Sharon didn't come in swinging, people would say she fell flat. The way Sharon and Tracy describe the breakup is so Supremes-meet-Original Recipe Destiny's Child. I get the sense that MVJ is re-writing the Return to Love Tour as a roman a clef, and I love it. I'm looking forward to finding out what the secret they share is. If Dante Green is as shady as Berry Gordy was, it's something dark. If/when they go through with the reunion, I expect Dante to show up and claim to own the Articulettes trademark in a Lou Pearlman-esque twist. 
    • Other than hanging out with Liz, all of Lucky's stories have been stalled out or dropped; the relationship with his son; his wanderlust. He hasn't been involved in any of the action/adventure or con artist stuff. I don't think he's even had a scene with Sidwell since the latter came to town. He's a real after thought. I doubt he's long for the show.

    • I started a separate thread for the same tribute, but of course it can be discussed wherever. doesn't matter where. Fyi  Jason Cook, Staci Greason, and Eileen Davidson will be there as well as Reckell and some of the current cast Thread for Live tribute to Drake https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/68987-days-currentformer-actors-live-video-tribute-for-drake-hogestyn
    • Seeing Nicole and Martin together reminds me of watching Alice with Mickey Horton in the 90s and 00s. The seem more like peers than mother and son.  The younger half of the cast (35ish and below) is playing younger, and the older half (35+) is playing older.
