Well, that was not the ending I was hoping for...

Jada is a mess. Is this the beginning of a downward spiral for the Chief?

I still believe Rafe is innocent, but does he know who did it—or at least think he does? And if so, is that why he’s keeping JJ in the dark about the listening device?

Not for nothing, but when even Javi is telling Rafi that Jada has earned a “hall pass,” maybe it’s time he lets go of all that pent-up anger.

And then there’s Kristen—who has somehow morphed into a completely unlikable, narratively useless character. I don’t want her back with Brady, I don’t want her tormenting Brady. The only way to salvage her at this point is to give her a compelling new love interest—either through business or mystery. She deserves one last shot, for the legacy of the character. But if that doesn’t work? I never need to hear from her again.

Finally, some good news: I finally found Chad’s jacket on WornOnTV! Now if only I could find it in stock…

I'm not sure what this means.  ??

But, I kinda hope it goes that way because I feel like it would be a good thing for the new team to put their mark on it, ya know? Something they can point to & say, Look this is what we did. 

And, BTW, 18 days is only 432 hours.

I’m honestly surprised Kristen hasn’t been woven into John’s exit storyline—this could’ve been a golden opportunity to redeem the character in a meaningful way.

I know, I know—this is probably an unpopular opinion. Kristen’s name alone sends some fans reaching for the fast-forward button.

But hear me out: the dynamic between Kristen and Marlena can actually be fun when it’s not dipped in full-blown chaos. Their history is deeply tied to the era that really cemented John Black as a character. There’s something intriguing in the idea that men like Shane, Andrew, and Steve are constantly stumbling into disaster—and it’s the women who have to save them.

Imagine Kristen using her particular (and let’s be honest—entertainingly shady) skill set to help Marlena uncover what really happened to John.  And maybe Kristen could find love with Andrew's ISA mentor.  Because I cannot think of one romantic pairing that has ever been sucessfuly played by this actress.  And I think it would be entertaining to pair her with an equally manic guy to see what havoc they could create.  Without loosing touch completely with the OG Kristen that wanted to work in non-profits with orphans.

    • Skyy is listed in BTG credits as writers assistant. On May 17, 2025, Michele Val Jean posted a picture with Susan Dansby and Skyy https://www.instagram.com/p/DJx8j4GxegB/ What's currently airing (May 2025) for Days was filmed in September 2024.
    • Poor Derek comes off as having the IQ of the cornbread at Orphey Gene's, like he's just a walking himbo with nothing going on upstairs.
    • I don't remember that scene! OMG, that is TOO funny!  There were three unseen Reardon siblings at this point. I suppose they wanted this one to be of an age to belong to the current young adult crowd, so that's why they retconned their birth order, but hell, at least bring in someone interesting. Maureen was already the goody-goody, they didn't need another one.
    • According to Errol, she wrote for Ambitions and has already joined the writing team of BTG.
    • Blake was a character that was introd right before or during the strike. When Long came back she asked who Blake was talking to on the phone and the producers were like "We don't know!" It was Curlee who pushed to make that character Chrissy...when they were in talks with Zaz to replace Pilon as Alan, (dummies) . I like the idea of another Reardon but yea, Chelsea? I grew to like her but she just seemed to be a kid that Bea fostered instead of a Reardon. Remember when they had a big scene of the Ed and Maureen talking about the "wildest" Reardon coming home, and Rick says, "Nola's coming back" and Maureen says, "Oh no, Chelsea's MUCH wilder then even Nola!" Okay..riiggghhht. I know they mentioned her "jumping in a fountain in Rome," and since they also had boring Tangie do that, this was apparently the wildest thing the writers could dream up (or they watched the "the Birds" too many times.)
    • Skyy Sandifer was listed as today's scriptwriter for Days.
    • Someone mentioned a while back that Katelyn MacMullen should be chosen as a recast for Ashley and I think that's a great idea. I'm still hoping that BTG poaches her from General Hospital and have her play Ashley. Also the writing for Ashley could use some improvement because right now Ashley is coming across as extremely emotionally unstable and neurotic. I can't help but wonder if that's supposed to be intentional. 
    • Derek is a firefighter, yet we haven't met any of his co-workers or friends, and there is no set location for his job. Derek is so isolated from everyone else. @NothinButAttitude I wonder the same thing about the crooked cop story. Where did it go?
    • The least of the problems this soap has.

    • Yes.  Are any of them famous?  I suppose Drew and Laura would warrant an interview because they are politicians but he's hosting.  Lucy and some of the acts also make sense to interview, but it's not like a world-famous supermodel is there.  She wasn't invited lol.  Why would anyone care about Cody and Molly?  I also wonder where this airs.  Years ago, when Britt and Liesel? Brad? were watching it on tv it looked like a Public Access channel like those local stations everyone gets. Going back to the MS Nina days she has hosted on and off.  I don't get it, but it's always been a thing.  Drew hosting perplexes me.  I think it loosely has something to do with Aurora, but he's not involved in that anymore, right? I think the whole red carpet stuff looks cheap and ugly.  I liked when they just showed a montage of the couples and people arriving during the first scenes of the Nurse's Ball. Something like this:

      I apologize for the absolutely awful quality, but Alan singing and people coming in looks much better.
