DAYS: May 2024 Discussion Thread

I guess having SR and DH tape their scenes separately and then edited together is too costly/time-consuming?

[carolineg]

Yes! Her body language is so off.  DH sitting all the way off to the side near John and being so clinical and unemotional about it was weird.  John and Steve were the ones physically holding Maggie's hand and comforting her.  

If you didn't watch Maggie/Marlena throughout their entire history until the 2010's it may not have seemed strange, but they were always very warm and physically affectionate previously.  Idk, it just feels awkward.  It's not exactly necessary for Marlena/Maggie to share story so maybe it's fine lol.

I thought that was actually happening, in an episode last week I think

But then they were in the same shot together.

We still don't know.

Clyde took credit.  However, the planning of the assaults on Lucas and Harris, as well as the fire at The Horton House have yet to be revealed.

BTW, it is an indication of how block storytelling messes with continuity that even @AbcNbc247 ,who diligently watches every day, has difficulty recalling the facts from five months ago.

Kinda sad, when you think about it.

30+ years of friendship and now nothing 

[carolineg]

I don't believe we got clarity on that.  I think it was Stefan.  Clyde was just don't be an idiot and immediately get caught.  Which, he obviously did lol.

It is.  Lucky for Suzanne she did get a chance to appear in Never Say Never: The Deidre Hall Story

Or maybe you could just tell them to drop the attitude, act like the (comparatively) well-paid professionals that they are and just do their job. Deidre and Suzanne might not be friends but Marlena and Maggie are. So use your acting skills and convince the audience that that is still the case.

[j swift]

To be fair, there was that one time that Marlena forced Maggie to drink and then killed her on Halloween, so some distance would be expected, even after all this time

Days continues to have a lot of extraneous details in their plots that don't matter.  So something can be said and it will literally have nothing to do with anything and the show just moves on or completely drops it lol.

If @AbcNbc247 can't recall, no one can.

[AbcNbc247]

But I’m sure the reunion on Melaswen was so nice and friendly

[carolineg]

Believe it or not they were still pretty close after that.

[AbcNbc247]

I guess I’m slacking. I gotta step my game
