DAYS: March 2025 Discussion Thread

Trying to always be here with nitpick & technicalities, Ron's last day is Wed., 4-23. My countdown timer tells me that is 37 days away as of this very minute. I feel good about this because when I created this countdown timer/calendar it was 80+ days away.

To be fair, headwriters do not make all decisions. They sometimes get rather clear instructions from TPTB above them. 

 

He has abs. That's about it.

Annie Wilkes still defending her Paul Sheldon, no matter what.

While I can believe that this is all Ron, and that Paula/Jean didn’t edit or rewrite anything, I’m still curious as to how this all came to be, especially after years of completely ignoring Sami’s rape.

So many questions are going through my mind about it. 

Yeah.

But, it’s also pretty clear that Ron had a lot more authority than other head writers have had.

Come on now

Don’t you Y&R fans want Kevin back too?

Last week was great, except for Wednesday, with the reveal on Friday even making me cry. Having Lauren Koslow come in after Roman accidently dropped the bomb about EJ was a smart move to secure that the emotional stakes necessary were struck. Prior to this reveal, Carson Boatman was someone I had a contented like about as Johnny, but now I feel this story has solidified him as someone I can be truly invested. I had no idea he had it in him. It's nice to be surprised by this show, in a good way, in 2025. His scenes today with EJ made me cry again. The scenes were a bit longer than usual and more in depth. I find it very hard to believe the new writers didn't have some sort of hand in the writing dig deeper. This rape reveal has really lit a fire under the show's ass and I hope they can keep up the momentum, especially for Carson Boatman and Johnny. I've even liked the show more than BTG in the past week because of it.

happens, the only thing I'll know is upcoming story wise is John passing away. It'll be exciting to be basically completely spoiler free.

-- So are you blaming TPTB for the entire Body & Soul debacle? Sometimes TPTB should step in earlier.

-- Dan F and Carson Boatman were both really good today. Their scenes made the episode, and I agree the episode should have ended on them.

-- I'm sick of both Kristen and her mother. They can both go. I never liked this old Rachel casting.

I’m blanking here, I know of Alan and EJ, who’s the third? 
 

Every now and then when I completely have written DAYS off as a complete mockery of soaps under Ron, we have scenes like today and Fridays episode.

Maybe

Arnold (Rafe2) raped (legally called rape by impersonation or rape by fraud).
EJ raped her again by facilitating Arnold to be in her bed.


In addition to all of that ... Sami herself is a rapist, she raped Austin

 

Someday I'd like to see Sami get therapy.  But I don't have high hopes for that getting written correctly.  And I'd hate to have it written poorly.

    • I think someone said it did exist, but I can't remember.
    • The bit with the scarf reminds me of the fabled stuffed animal scene with Rick and Phillip. (That wasn't debunked, was it?)
    • Ohh, interesting. I instantly gravitated towards her in that episode. Of course I'm already hooked and want to know why she was trying to poison that older lady, but then how did the older lady know to switch the mugs so Susan drank her own poison...  but I have too many timelines I'm watching right now haha.  Oh, Bolger is definitely hot. I didn't realize he was on GL haha. I knew him from OLTL and other primetime stuff.
    • This is a effin shame. Eff Trump and eff the bastards that enable him.
    • I 100% agree but I think this is due to how the show is structured. It's a one family show which means there are no people in her age range that could be used as friends or contemporaries of her. The show definitely needs a second main family. I am glad someone finally said this. Especially now that the cast is gelling in their roles, he stands out like a sore thumb. No energy, no chemistry with anybody. He is just there.  I thought that was odd as well! The previous scene would've worked better as a tag for the credits.
    • That's the one and only Carrie Nye (Mrs. Dick Cavett) as Susan Piper, a deadly realtor. I don't want to spoil a lot if you ever want to see those episodes. She returns as another character in 2003. I think Grant has aged well and he always did a good job at being ripped without going too far, but he was never entirely my cup of tea either. I did think John Bolger was hot.
    • Totally agree. KKL looks great! It makes the Widge groveling so bizarre. Brooke needs to leave FC and with $B's/Liam's funding launch a rival fashion house with Hope, Rick, Katie and a secret designer. The best scenario is that Rick has been absent because he's been with very much alive C2, who is revealed on the runway as the secret designer. It'll never happen because B&B is comfortable just focusing on FC and the Forresters Marones v. Logans. But it'd been so much more interesting if the Spencers/Logans united.

    • Haha that scarf thing did go on a bit too long, very odd. And what a young Rick!  I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I just never got the physical appeal of Grant Aleksander, but he's definitely a great actor. Who is the older lady around the 8:30 mark, and also ends the episode, alone and in pain? She seems like a really interesting character. I love the smoky voice and sultry, snaky vibe she seems to have.
    • I can't remember exactly but I think she lives in or is part of the cottage story with Carrie. Carrie poisons her in this episode.  I forgot Teresa was on the show. (I see that AI is insisting she wasn't - well they're wrong) Poor Maeve. I can how even she had her limits.
