DAYS: July 2024 Discussion Thread

Leo has got to go!

The Body and Soul stuff was cringeworthy bad. How embarrassing!!

Again they are dumbing down Stephanie.

The best part of the show so far is seeing Carson Can't Act Boatman's hot chest and pecs.

The rest of the show can be flushed down the toilet.

I can't believe this Body & Soul crap is supposed to be a legitimate story. What are even the stakes? Maybe if Abe had, I dunno, leveraged his retirement money against this, or someone had real personal investment in it -- like it was Johnny's one last shot to make it as a writer/director. But what are we even supposed to care about here?

So, does she knock on the door and then stand there and pose?  Or does she walk up to the door pose, and then knock?  Beyond everything else, it is the single thing that I can't get off of my mind.  It was such an unnatural way to stand in a doorway.

And when Kate & Abe hire Leo as the writer (aka the RonC surrogate), I'm worried that people's heads are going to explode.

Mhmm, exactly. The "writer" may not have introduced, but he's abused it beyond its necessity.

I agree, especially when I so closely associated Jen Lilley with the role (and still kind of do), but Emily O'Brien has done incredible work... just a shame that cheap-ass wig is still in-use.

[AbcNbc247]

Yeah… we really didn’t need any reminders of that gross ass Dimitri storyline #PoorPeter

Still no sympathy for Leo. Besides, he has no right to be missing Gwen after what he did to her. I’m glad she hung up on him

And Chad deserved a lot better today as well. He should have spent the entire episode with Jack. I am little interested in what’s going to happen for them, now that Jack got the photo enhanced.

Gabi/Stefan were sweet today. They really do seem to have good chemistry. NuGabi still doing a really good job. 

As for Bobby-Everett/Connie, I just don’t care lol

At this point Ron could've stayed away from the show. IDK why they bothered bringing him back after the strike, and we've got so much to endure before the new writers stuff starts airing. 

[Bright Eyes]

Legally, they had no choice. Corday fired writers after a strike before and paid the price. Of course, I don't know if he could have gone earlier than he is, but at least he's finally gone all the same.

[teplin]

Did I misunderstand, or did Leo say that Xander was going to take an acting role in Body & Soul? We haven't seen a hint of that on screen. Guess it's the perils of filming out of order and a poor (or non-existent) continuity supervisor.

And it sure seemed like they were laying the ground for Gwen to return in the Leo-Chad scene. 

 

[carolineg]

I heard him say that too and I was wondering if I missed something or wasn't paying attention lol.

NuGabi really channels CB's energy.  She does a good job.  I still miss Camila, but the recast is good.

Do we know if EOB is out?  She very well could return as Gwen.  They keep talking about her.

[AbcNbc247]

Kinda makes you think that his departure was unexpected 

[Contessa Donatella]

They bring people back after strikes because they don't want the WGA to fine them. It's the law that their job is waiting for them.

[Soapsuds]

The show isn't good right now and we were warned by people on Twitter that it was going to get really bad minus the tribute and returns for Doug's funeral.

It is unfortunate that we have a long time to wait for some better stories. They should've scraped Ron's remaining mess and started from scratch.

I'm just happy Carlivati is finally gone and that's a great reason to celebrate.

We could skip the next 8 months and return then as viewers.

Its going to be Body & Soul and Connie show!

That's the only stories that will be featured until the new writers come in.

[AbcNbc247]

I know it’s gonna be terrible lol And some of the spoilers for next week suggest that too… but there’s no way in hell I’m gonna let this mf’er or his little bitchboy drive me away from my soap
