DAYS is filming November 2025 now, so those *might be* spoilers as to cast and wardrobe.
Edit, but you have a point, it *might be* preparation for a big cast photoshoot

update, per SOD (Link) -- both are true.  it's spoiler filming and also a photoshoot for the 60th.

Damn, they are still 9 months ahead of taping. Just ridiculously insane!!

This studio pic was from yesterday.

 

New Sophia.... Yikes!!

The Fake Rafe and Jada scenes were just ridiculous. Is she that stupid that she doesn't know it isn't Rafe?

I'm glad I skipped last week.

The romance was on full display today, and I enjoyed the sweetness and nerdiness of it all, especially Steve and Kayla 😊😊

I really enjoyed the flashbacks and the strolls down memory lane as well. 

And, Johnny looked hot at the beginning 😍😂😂

Too bad that he and Chanel can’t have a baby yet. I really wish they weren’t taking this route with the two of them. They deserve a much better story than this and the crap that they’ve previously had. 

Julie and Doug III were really sweet as well. I like that he was there for her on her first Valentines Day without Doug. The two of them work well together. And we got confirmation that Doug III is straight 😂😂

I also liked the way that it was set up for him to cross paths with Holly. I wonder what’s going to happen next week.

Speaking of Holly, I know that Days meant well but her scenes with Maggie were awkward af lol I could’ve never spoken about my sex life with a grandparent 😂😂 But I really enjoy their relationship. Tate looked good too. His shirt was something that I would wear. 

But idk about nuSophia though. She doesn’t seem to have as much of a spark as the previous Sophia did. In her scenes with Amy, she came off like such a victim; a lot more than the previous Sophia would have. We definitely need to see her in scenes with Holly soon. And if Amy is now so on board with Tate and Sophia’s plan, what was the point of her being such a dick? If they were gonna introduce that arc in the first place, they really shouldn’t have rushed it. 

It's definitely a shame we lost Madelyn Kientz, because she was a natural and there were a handful of times this new girl looked like she was glitching.

I've pinpointed another reason why Abigail Klein is the worst actor on the show ... she comes off as some sort of insipid TVKids host. 

What does Carlivati have against Melissa? Plenty of past characters are naturally referenced, but for some reason, there's times like today where the dialogue will just blatantly and suspiciously make sure not to mention her. Did Lisa Trusel piss in his cheerios or something? However, for all his many faults, making Julie a true cornerstone of the show again is always a pleasure. Getting to see that flashback of Doug reading her the lyrics she told Doug III about was the perfect end to her scenes today, and the Steve/Kayla flashback was another one I'd never seen as well. 

 

New Sophia is awful.

Hot=shirtless

So we find out Doug is straight? What a shame.😂😍

Prior to acting she was a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader, and then appeared in
the reality show "Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders: Making the Team" in 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010.

Once I learned this, I can't unsee it.

Same here.

-- Shirtless Johnny to open the show was a treat. And that booty!

-- NuSophia looks a lot older to me than the exiting actress.

She does. I was going to mention that earlier.

Why hasn't the Woman in White asked about Peter?  I guess Kristen hasn't had much time to fill in the blanks, and Rachel said she followed the news about Kristen, but it seems like she would want to know about her son.

Did he precede her in death? Or, does she know about the backstage drama?😎

Haha yep.

He mentioned to Julie that he had a crush on somebody. And when she asked, "boy or girl" he said girl 😂

Jada never knew about fake Rafe so I give Jada a pass on this current situation and The writers having Jada not figuring stuff about fake Rafe is because the writers are going to have her and Shawn closer and even Gabi hasn't noticed Fake Rafe and she should be the main one because she should know her brother 

The new Sophia doesn't seem glaringly bad to me, especially considering that she got thrown into some heavy storyline mid-stream, but she definitely isn't showing that pop that the previous Sophie had yet. I don't know that the character would've been elevated if this actress had been playing her from the get-go.

I wonder if the show decided to SORAS Sophia a few years for plotline reasons.

If they're going to do the adoption story with Johnny and Chanel, they should move nuSophia in with them -- and have Sophia become attracted to Johnny. I need something other than the "I'll give you my baby" stuff.
