DAYS: December 2024 Discussion Thread

If she wore a tank top underneath it instead of just a bra it would have been perfectly fine.

Bo/Hope/Shawn live in Europe.  Wherever Bo got shot.  Greece I think.  Ciara is just on a boat somewhere as far as we know.  It doesn't seem like Ben/Ciara are currently near Hope, as it felt Hope hadn't seen Ciara in awhile today.

Jack/Jen live in Boston

Thanks!  I already found the dress though.

Well, living in Vegas I see much less attractive people wearing much less unfortunately.  If I saw her in this top or that dress in real life I would think she looks amazing-she is gorgeous.  Just know your audience and your event when you are on TV.  And, of course, Days is not blameless here.

That was the part that I thought looked inappropriate for the funeral. The top of the dress was fine, if a bit sexy, but it was how short it was that was like...wowza. Marie should have made a comment about it, being an ex-nun.

Stephen Schnetzer was terrific. As he always is. It's hard to believe he's 76. He looks much younger.

When they all sang 'Always' that was incredibly moving and beautifully done. But then...

Leo is truly an albatross and the show is weaker for him being on the canvas. It's like RC sees the character as his wish fulfillment and he's living his fantasies through him...so great is his obsession and shoehorning the character into every single scene imaginable. I was shocked when he appeared with Stephen Schnetzer. That never should have happened.

Of course, Uncle Ron couldn’t go a week without his precious Robert Scott Wilson and Greg Rikaart.

Today was ok, but a lot of people annoyed me lol

First, f*ck off, Cat.

I should have sympathy for her, and I haven’t really hated this storyline but she was so annoying today. Chad was a lot more forgiving than I would have been. But Chad and JJ each finding out about Doug and absorbing the news about were really good. Scenes like that show us just how good Billy Flynn and Casey Moss really are. And yes, it was still a big mistake to not have Chad and JJ attend Doug’s funeral, or at least have a scene of either of them comforting Julie.

The Joy/Alex scenes could have been a lot better though. Having Alex act like this is all a big joke and having him be so smug and obnoxious is the wrong choice for this storyline. It’s annoying too lol and since when is Alex so anti-Dimera? Thankfully, the EJ/Johnny scenes balanced everything out today. I’m glad EJ brought up that Joy could possibly be manipulating this whole situation and I really hope that’s the route they take with this storyline. It would be a great twist and it wouldn’t feel like a random half-assed rewrite, like with Luna on B&B

And as hot as RSW is, and he looked hot again today lol, I still think the obsessive writing for him is the biggest reason why fans can’t stand his character. 

And, Paulina was annoying too. Thankfully, Lani/Sal and Chanel/Raven saved those scenes and made them worth watching. Lani visiting David Abraham’s grave was really touching.

Today was a filler, boring episode. It was great to see Lani again.

I don't care about Joy and Johnny's one night stand. Can they recast Johnny? Carson Boatman is awful. He can't act.

The Clyde story is just dumb beyond words.

And Cat deserved a slap in the face after what she said about Abigail.

Yeah, it had to be one or the other.  If the dress was at least knee length or midi length, the top wouldn't be so bad.  If the top was more covered up and the dress was short it might have been acceptable.  The dress was really short though lol.

Anyhow, on to today's show.  I agree it was a big mistake to not have JJ or Chad at Doug's funeral.  It's not like the story progressed while the funeral was happening.  I don't understand why Chad didn't book hotel rooms with two beds.  That's extremely common in almost every hotel regardless of how nice it is lol.  It's not like Clyde thinks Chad/Cat are sleeping together so there would be no reason to book only one bed for Gabi/JJ at the very least.

The EJ/Johnny and Alex/Joy stuff is whatever.  I like EJ's involvement, but I don't need Alex's at all.  I still think the actress that plays Joy looks a lot like Amber Tamblyn lol.

Do Sal and Lamon not want to be on Days full time?  I am glad they visit fairly often, but they would be nice on canvas permanently.

Not much of a cliffhanger this week.

    • There was a rumor that Jean will die and that’s probably why she’s back then
    • There has been some confusion about Michael & facial burns. Please see this post: https://bsky.app/profile/shallotpeel.bsky.social/post/3lqkrryu54226 I've chosen to put this here instead of the Classic Thread because it is now with the appearance of recast Michael that this has come up. Different places online, including at least one podcast, remarks have been made about how remarkable it is that he is without facial scarring. Other fans say it was clear from the first that he did not have facial burns. What is included in this post is 2 screengrabs where you can see his face at the hospital & a very quick edit of that day in the hospital. 
    • Put me in the LOVE KMH camp. As a poster alluded to above, her detractors seem to come from people who first experienced the 80s Emily actress. And that's often the case with soaps, myself included. I enjoy the original actor so much that I just never take to the recast. However, KMH played Emily far longer than the original - for almost 20 years - and when she had great material, she was great. I get the sense she didn't like playing the whiny oh-woe-is-me Emily which was all the material she got from about 1996 until she took over the Intruder in late '99/early '00 and got to play a stronger kiss-ass woman who didn't care what anyone thought of her. (Some would call that a bitch but, if a man was in that role, he'd just be called a smart and savvy businessman.) Her relationship with Hal was great. The transformation was done realistically and I thoroughly enjoyed those years the best out of all. Once the writers decided to break up those two, they went back to writing Emily half the time as whiny and pathetic. I preferred when the writers made her stronger.
    • Hahaha - I do. I've always been the type, though, that can't miss anything. I get FOMO, so I'll not skip episodes or fast forward anything. There are only a few TV shows I've dropped because they got so bad vs. sticking it out to the end.  The promise that GL 1997 is better is what keeps me going. I especially want to see the fallout of Blake's lie about her twins and then Annie's descent which I believe won Watros's Emmy.
    • Rita's rape is an episode i constantly search on YouTube hoping one day that it will show up. I always feel like I may have seen it, but I was only 6 at the time and can never figure any of the things I have vague recollection of

        FROM THE VAULT: NON-SOAP DAYTIME RATINGS: HIGHLIGHTS FROM AUGUST 1973 & NOVEMBER 1973:
    • The rape was in 1979 after they were married. Blake was the result of Holly cheating with him while she was married to Ed. I believe she was born in 1975. 
    • No. Ed and Holly were married and having problems. She had an affair with Roger and that's when Christina--Blake--was conceived. The rape happened much later, after Holly and Roger were married.
