DAYS: July 2024 Discussion Thread

I was glad Gabi killed Nick.  I felt she was justified.  Nick tried to rape Gabi and later tried to control her, and she really did feel she had no choice.  I mean objectively she had a choice, but I totally get why she felt she didn't.

I did too back then lol that was when I liked her.

Say what you will about Nick but at least he never gambled with the life of a newborn baby that had cancer or tortured an old lady with a defective pacemaker

Steve/Jada… Skip

Bobby-Everett… Skip

I wonder what the original storyline was for Bobby-Everett, because it was clearly changed, more than once. Plus, I’d much rather see Marlena with her grandson right now, rather than any of her douchebag patients. 

Speaking of her grandson, I guess it’s nice that Paulina wasn’t responsible for Chanel’s miscarriage but at the same time, I feel like they’re missing a great opportunity for a storyline for Johnny/Chanel. Maybe a storyline will happen as a result of Johnny losing his dream job lol 

As for Abe/Kate, I guess I don’t mind them teaming to work on creating a new soap but I’m worried that it’s all just gonna dissolve into a big stupid joke, like it often does. 

Btw, if I were writing Days, I think I might cancel Body and Soul lol

Why doesn't Kayla seem to know that Steve's going to prison?  It's one thing for him to keep his meeting with Jada a secret.  But, the show acts like nobody has a cell phone, and once Steve knew he was being booked wouldn't he call his wife?

And where does Kate suddenly have enough money to produce a show?

I mean, the whole thing has to be influence by The Gates, right?

Better yet, just move it to the Pheasant streaming service.

I think it was time about two years ago lol 

Btw, why do you always refer to Ron as the “writer”? Not judging or criticizing, just curious. 

I think I’d say that it got canceled because the head writer was totally checked out.

And forced characters that nobody liked onto the fans

And, because he hired an obsessed fan of his with very little writing experience to write for the show.

Oh!  LOL I was making a wrong assumption.

I thought it was because that's how Tony Geary referred to Ron.   "I just want to be heard. I think the problems were always more with the writer than with Frank, although the writer and I have never spoken."

I can already hear him saying, “It’s fun”

But his definition of “fun” doesn’t seem to match with the rest of humanity’s 

For me, it’s some of the storylines that haunt me

Well, TG did have quite a big reason to feel that way lol

That's what I thought as well.  And then "the writer" poured gasoline on the incident and struck a match with his WGA Awards acceptance speech, where he defended himself against Geary in a most Dorian Lord-like fashion.

    • It really is ridiculous how happy episodes from 40 years ago make me. God, MKA is so young!
    • Holy sh.it. THAT was a damn soap opera. I’m at a loss for words for how good that was.
    • A private elevator penthouse with a spiral staircase to the primary suite.  Sign me up! The only deficit was that various riff-raffs seemed to have easy access to the elevator.

    • Same here.  Anyone who voluntarily left Margo's penthouse set (except to go overseas or to Heaven) was immediately on my blacklist.  lol.  
    • https://x.com/MicheleValJean/status/1919575319146856657  
    • The penthouse was my favorite set... and it changed hands from Margo to Draper/April to Miles/Nicole then to just Miles... before he opted to give that beautiful place for that drab house with the even more drab Beth.  That was a jump the shark moment for me LOL
    • The storyline April and Draper are involved in during the summer/autumn of 1979 seems fairly "benign" but soon turns very serious.  April has a VERY intrusive, wealthy mother (Margo Huntington Dorn).  Margo knows that April and Draper (who've recently had a miscarriage and are theoretically never going to be able to conceive another baby) want to buy a house.  Margo hoodwinks them into buying a house they can't afford.  The house is listed at $100,000 (about $400,000 in today's dollars).  Margo pays the first $35,000 and leads Draper to believe the asking price of the house is $65,000 instead of $100,000.  If Draper finds out his meddling mother-in-law paid 1/3 of the cost of the home and tricked him, he'll be mad as hell.   Meanwhile, Draper has received a job offer from a prestigious New York law firm.  Margo pulls some strings and has the senior partner in the firm rescind the offer, to keep April in Monticello.  If Draper finds out about THAT, he'll be even angrier with Margo than he will be about the house trickery.  All of that is "bubbling under the surface" in the fall of 1979 but will be the next major story, as everything begins to spiral out of control.   Yep, you've got the Karrs and their very basic middle-class house, the Victorian-themed place where Miles and Nicole live, April and Draper's old craftsman house with the exposed beams, the Madisons & their Mission revival house, and Margo with her 1970s-chic penthouse.  Each of the sets is completely different.  And their budget was like zero, lol.  
    • It felt weird and out of place.  I get it. While I agree with those on here that say he's gotten better, it's still really bad. I'm not seeing the "good" acting some see...but I'll give him a B for being better than when he first started. There's potential. I'll leave it at that. 
    • It's like watching paint dry at a slow-ass pace. It's bad acting. Entirely. Excellent? With Claybon? Never. Ever.
