DAYS: May 2025 Discussion Thread

Literally the same exact jacket from the same designer, Steve in black and ShawnD in brown.
I posted a bunch of May 14 and May 15 episode photos on page 2 of the May spoiler thread,
including the matching jackets and the designer.

I honestly felt like Gabi/Alex had a deeper conversation on their short date than Stephanie and Alex have had in their entire relationship.   Didn't Alex try to reboot Titan Publishing with Theresa, and it flopped?  

So Sophia and Rachel have the same birthday?  Lol.  It was strange Tate got sick at the party and I have no clue what Sophia's about.  I really don't think she's scheming, but I do think she'll ending wanting to keep the baby.

The Kevin stuff is a bit silly.  He needed Phillip to tell him to just make one dose and bring the rest back?  He doesn't have time to do that before the Dr. comes back to the lab?  Kevin's right outside lol.

Nice Kayla/Marlena scenes.  I really hope they don't drag finding John out much longer.

She said closing in.  Deidre was sobbing so hard I had to check the closed captioning

I wish the triangle with Philip was still going on with them.

Maybe Days got a good deal

Anything, but this non-story.  Who cares if Stephanie publishes her Danielle Steel novel or not?  Maybe Joy will be back sooner or later with the baby.

Last Chance Sale at Nordstrom rack.  I bet JJ has one too.

Yeah.  For some reason I thought they shuttered the whole Publishing department after that.

I still can’t help but think that this was all Ron and Paula/Jeanne just decided to run with it. 

Maybe it’ll improve over time 

[carolineg]

Probably.

Stephanie is still so underdeveloped as a character to me.  She jumps from romance to romance and I feel like she takes on the persona and interests of the man she is with at the moment.  I don't really know her interests or personality.  And Stephanie certainly gets enough airtime to explore more than sex with Alex.

I know she was interacting with Kayla today, but a lot of the dialogue was "Alex asked", "Alex thinks..", "Alex is now free so I have to go" lol.  What do you think about anything, Stephanie?

Deidre Hall did really well in that last scene hearing about them closing in on John. John's funeral is going to be tough to watch.

I am very much enjoying this week! Could it be because Leo, Javi and Rafe are all off screen?

Belle gives new meaning to being a whole dicktimized bird. Good god I thought Ciara was bad when it came to Serial Killer Ben but she ani't got nothing on Isabella when it comes to EJ. The self-righteous smugness is off the charts & I'm need someone to knock her off her pedestal. This hoe ani't got too brain cells to rub together. My girl wasn't salutatorian in HS to be acting like she ani't got the good sense that god gave her.

I don't buy she is in love with rapey Elvis she is in love with dick that ani't her husband. She is one of those type of chicks who comes up missing or dead cause she's infatuated with a monster & think she is good enough to change them. Lord make it end

There isn't enough dick in the world to be acting like a whole sanctimonious trash bag.

The actress playing Stephanie seems more passive and indecisive than the previous two actresses that played Stephanie. 

Shayna's Stephanie had a lot of spirit and a more daredevil attitude.. while Shelley's Stephanie had this stoic confidence where she seemed like a pushover, but would push back if provoked (i.e. her interactions with Melanie).

I do hope that Paula/Jeanne figure out how to write to the strengths of the current actress playing Stephanie and also play her more in scenes with Patch/Kayla where they have heart to heart talks and also delve into the father/daughter dynamics with Patch.  The previous two Stephanie's kind of had Patch's temperament while this Stephanie doesn't seem to have either Patch nor Kayla's temperaments.

You make some really good points here.

I think Abigail Klein is quite likeable she's just been written as very wishy washy and cookie cutter.   There is nothing that makes her stand out as Patch/Kayla's daughter like you stated.

Ron never seemed to have a clear idea what to do with Stephanie or who to pair her with.  I do think it's a fixable problem, but she needs to get away from Alex, IMO.
