And that’s why, even though he was only in 3 episodes, SS is on Ron’s list of apologies

I couldn’t stand Gwen either for a while, but what was done to her was just so cruel and so disgusting that, even though I still didn’t like her, I’ve started to go easier on her

Now that would be a good thread! I could definitely vote for Gwen being cheated on by her husband Dimitri with her supposed bestie Leo & then nominate RSW's Alex for being the straight male fantasy figure in the supposed WLW story of Challie. DAYS has had all this diversity but the writing!

Thanks.  I have seen this already.  Some of the Leo/Alex stuff has already aired and just because the show hasn't fired both of them doesn't mean they are a main focus.  It actually looks like the show is moving into other stories with other characters.

After a great week last week, we’re back to the same old Ron/Jamey mess. I know every soap has its highs and lows, but in their case, the lows are pretty low. Sometimes they couldn’t get lower even if they tried

Why can’t Leo just go to somebody at the Spectator to find out who the new Lady Whistleblower is, since everyone who works there supposedly loves him

Rafe/GG deserves so much better than this. I hope the potential conflict between him and Jada isn’t sidelined because of this crap. Luckily, judging by their final scene today, it might not be, even though the writing in that scene could have been a lot better. And yeah, reminding us (for like the millionth time) of that self-sabotage bullshit isn’t gonna make us like Leo, just sayin’. But yes Leo, Javi is too good for you. Everyone is too good for you. 

Speaking of Javi, his scenes with Jada were ok. It was nice to see him interact with other characters. Btw, welcome back, Kerry

I imagine him showing up today was another way for them to try to make us have sympathy for Leo, but I’m sorry, I just didn’t. Leo aside, it’s almost impossible to build sympathy for a character after you’ve made them the worst person ever. 

As for Johnny/Chanel/Alex, idk about Johnny’s lie today. It could add a pretty good and interesting dynamic to this storyline, or it could just have been laziness on the part of a writer. Lol who knows?

    • 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.
