DAYS: August 2024 Discussion Thread

I have no idea. What exactly comprises an upper tier?

[aim4thestars]

I’m going annual

I have Comcast internet and since I'm a diamond tier I get peacock premium for free. Diamond tier is the lowest one that gets it for free. It's a rewards program for long time customers. I've been with Comcast for at least 10 years.

OMG! The show was so bad. All of the Body & Soul was very terrible. Then the Connie crapola was worse than usual. Then, oh no Good Times comes on.

If anything, there was more then enough to FF through

From the first scene, today was an improvement over yesterday. The script was clearly worked on by real writers and not obsessed fans. 

I liked the little family bonding scenes with Xander/Sarah/Maggie/Fiona. I thought the dynamics between them and also Fiona’s alcoholism were built up pretty well. 

Brady and Tate’s drunken phone call was good too, but again, they should have had Tate realize Brady was drunk and be angry and upset about it, which in turn could have caused problems for him and Holly. He was too carefree about it. And about Theresa being sent to prison.

Same could be said for Tate/Holly deciding not to have sex. They should have had Holly be angry at Tate instead of her immediately realizing that she was just caving to pressure by Sophia. Like, why are they afraid to write good, internal conflict for Tate and Holly? Tate did look hot though

I wonder how Jamie Martin Mann would’ve played that scene. 

As for Chad/“Abby”, I didn’t see that much chemistry between them. 

But both cliffhangers were really good. They were definitely a good hook to get people to watch tomorrow.

Tate's probably just happy that he doesn't have to deal with his mom anymore and maybe he's even secretly hoping that he won't have to see her ever again. 

Also, what are they even doing with Holly and Tate? What was the point of that scene if they weren't even going to sleep together? Wow, these two are really boring, aren't they? Sophia is literally the only thing making them interesting right now.

Boy when Ron runs out of material, he RUNS OUT

Remember the episodes centering around that talking stuffed bear Nicole and Rafe had. Yikes.

He's penned some of the worst episodes in daytime.

Wow.  Fair.  The life sized stuffed bear episodes were worse than yesterday's episode.

Which is why I suggested using Brady and Theresa’s problems to cause conflict for Tate/Holly. 

They’re the youngest couple and should be the messiest, but they’re practically one of the most solid couples on the canvas.

Tate just continues to be the most laid back teenager on the planet.  So many things are going on around him and he's just hanging out with Holly.  JMM played Tate with more feelings?  More high strung?   I also still find Holly pretty unlikeable still.  She's was okay today.  I just find her very selfish.

I surprisingly find Fiona very interesting.  She's (so far) a character I actually want to know more about.  Although I can't believe sober Maggie didn't smell the champagne in Fiona's glass when Fiona actually handed it to her to hold.  My mother doesn't drink and I swear she can smell alcohol on anyone from 100 yards away lol.

I am not sure how I feel about Nu"Abby".  I thought it was incredibly pushy the way Chad took her to the mansion and tried to force her to remember.  Just buy the girl a hamburger at the Pub and let her breathe for a few minutes!

DUKE! The stuffed bear, actually quite ordinary, but he was owned in common by 2 people - Rafe & Nicole, who took turns on custody.

It is confusing where the roads are in Salem because everyone seems within walking distance of the square.  Do they drive onto the ferry, or is the island just for walking?  I mean, it seems like the only time we ever see anyone driving, we know that there will be an accident.

Same here -- I'm on the Diamond tier. I filed the email price increase when I got it. Hopefully, it won't show up on my bill and I won't have to spend 2 hours calling them.

The upper tier is called the Diamond tier. It includes over 150 channels, most of which I never watch.

I checked out moving to a lower tier, but that would have kicked in a charge for Peacock and a very low storage capacity for my DVR -- for a "savings" that made none of it make sense.

10 episodes behind now.
