Also Jamie posted that Drake had made a recording of his voice for the fans during the last days for him, and he did it for the story being told. Fans, as you can imagine, are so very moved by his doing this. It is truly going over & beyond.

Jamey said he was wrong:




@JAS0N47 clarified on another thread that there were no new recordings made.

In regards to a tweet earlier today, one of the staff writers had tweeted that it was Drake recording new voiceovers, but I double-checked with the publicist, and she said that is absolutely false. Drake did not do any new voice work for these episodes.

Absolutely insane that Donna is still here, let alone thinks she should ever say Drake Hogestyn's name again.

At least she gets us all to agree on something.  This is a tacky subject for her to continue to weigh in upon.  It also demonstrates her bizarrely impulsive need to “inform” us with unverified gossip from social media that had already been debunked on this forum 17 hours earlier!

When I double-checked with the publicist last night about this, she immediately got Jamey to issue the correction that he posted less than 20 minutes after I contacted her. Drake did not do any new voiceover work for this storyline. Any Drake stuff you hear is flashback audio.

Some stories stay with you forever. Writing today's breakdown was tough because of what these characters and the show mean to me -  and to you. The cast and crew gave it everything. Honored to be part of it. More to come...⌛️#Days #DOOL #DaysofOurLives

BTG:

- Sonia Blangiardo-Goins first listed as Director on May 23

On Days of our Lives-- Rick Draughon was listed with the breakdown writers starting today and Isaac Francis Tackman has been listed alphabetically with the other scriptwriters since Tuesday.

Thanks for the Days writer update. Since Draughon started in August 2024 according to his Linkedin profile and this episode was taped the week of September 9 2024, it seems the outlines are being written about a month or less from tape date.

Christian Streaty penned today's Day's script.

Thanks for the updates, @glfaninnyc and @VelekaCarruthers.   First Skyy Sandifer, and now Christian Streaty, looks like DAYS was testing out some black writers who are new to daytime.  

Ed Scott has not been credited the last two Y&R episodes...

Update: Not listed in the June 5 (CDN)/June 6 (US) episode either...

Now she used to be on the Directing rotation, so is this when she was off of it for awhile & now is back?

Sonia was on the director rotation at DAYS.
On BTG, Sonia had been credited as a producer. 
May 23 was her first episode directing BTG.
