DAYS: December 2024 Discussion Thread

Beyond Salem

One of the best things Ron ever wrote… yet he completely destroyed the impact of it due to his own ignorance 

Maybe they’ll hire him back when he finishes school

What do you mean by this? Apparently there's something stupid Ron did that I don't know about! Inquiring minds want to know!

Anybody wanna guess what the worst story was?

Because he turned this breathtakingly beautiful (probably straight) successful villain into a gay, cringey, campy, clowny spineless coward.

Today's episode 6/10

I sort of like these episodes when people just catch up and talk, but I still wish that they'd edit it so that we could see a full conversation rather than two lines of dialogue at a time.

I am immune to Brady's charm.  The guy went from pining over Theresa for two minutes, to Fiona, then Ava, and we're supposed to think he's just a romantic softie.  He's a 53-year-old homeless due with a poorly dyed beard.  Where's the sophistication of an Anna/Tony romance?

However, I'm glad that Holly's not stupid.  She's read the room, she's got Sophia's number, and she's smart about sex.

The highlight for me was the rather frank discussion about abortion.  Soaps usually just sweep the option under the rug.  But, here we got an actual social issue that is messing with these kids that we like.  Good for them.  Although, I know it is the natural inclination of most teens to keep this information from their fathers.  You'd think, after recent events, that Tate might confide in Brady.

That sounds like Ron. It's really a wonder that Peacock wanted DAYS after dealing with Ron & Alarr. 

 

[AbcNbc247]

By far, the most wasted actor and character during Ron’s run.

And he was so pretty!

Three consecutive episodes of Leo

This is what I mean when I say that all the excuses we ever got from Ron or whoever were bullshit. And that’s all I’m gonna say about his pointless scenes with Hattie today. 

Rafe was more of a dick today than usual too. I can’t believe they had such a good opportunity to cause conflict for him and Jada and they’re totally squandering it, with this and the spoiler that we heard. 

JJ and Gabi’s date was nice though. I like that they’re not immediately rushing back into a relationship with the two of them. But I think that they should have EJ still be involved with Gabi. Just dropping their storyline because Stefan was the wrong choice too. 

And I’m guessing that Kristen isn’t the one who sent the text messages to Ava.

Leo and Hattie. Literally like being tortured.

I think Rachel is sending the texts 

[AbcNbc247]

Good theory!

She does seem like the type lol 

[Soapsuds]

Seems like a skip episode but I'm might watch and fast forward a lot. The only thing that interests me is JJ and Gabi.

[SFK]

In this day and age of intimacy coordinators, I'm sure that Carson Boatman has given the OK. But if that m*********** slapped me ONE more time as the button of a scene, i would [!@#$%^&*] him up.

Your buddy Belle was in it too

JJ and Gabi had their date that Javi set up for her. And JJ also got an offer to be a cop. 

I wouldn’t have minded Johnny doing that either

[carolineg]

I really hope the show doesn't plan to run out Dee's guarantees with this Hattie stuff.  

It's nice to see Belle being the busiest lawyer in town I guess.

JJ and Gabi have nice chemistry.  

Not much to say about the episode.  It was okay.

[Liberty City]

Could have been her and Carrie doing it but, we can't have nice things, can we?
