DAYS: September 2025 Discussion Thread 

Not much happened today, but there were a lot of family dynamics included in the episode, that I thought were kinda sweet and dorky. 

I’m glad that Tate had his grandmother to confide in about everything he’s been going through, and that he was able to put on a brave face for Rachel. I like that we’ve been seeing those two relationships a lot more lately. It’s been nice seeing Tate get out of that bubble that he often got stuck in with Holly, Sophia, etc. 

The lawyer, knowing Melinda and lying to Brady was expected, on some level  but at the same time, it all seemed like a weak resolution to me. Hopefully, Brady ends up not buying it and continues to investigate, especially after what happened at the end with Tate. 

Chad and Cat still do nothing for me though. I wonder if this storyline was the thing that

Prompted Billy Flynn to leave 

But Chad did look really good today 😍😂😂

Speaking of the Greenes, they might have been the dorkiest of them all today but I didn’t really mind it. It was good to see Aaron back. I’ve always liked the little nerd lol he can add another layer to the teen storylines. His reunion with Tate was nice, but scenes like that make me wonder if they really aren’t going to take the route of what we all suspected about the baby.

And, we got an update about Mark too. Maybe he’ll come back and save Javi from Leo 😂😂😂

The one conversation Aaron and Sophia had around graduation when Aaron said he'd thought he and Sophia would end up together really made me think the show might go there with the baby story.

I fear Aaron and Ari might become an item though.  Sadly, he's pretty much her only option unless I missed a casting call or spoiler (totally possible).

I know Wayne's son has been cast, but I think he's probably too old?

I had the exact opposite reaction 😂

I figured that, with how smart Aaron is supposed to be, he would’ve asked her in that scene if there was any chance the baby was his. And when he didn’t, I thought that they might not be going there 

And I imagine they might go there with him and Ari too. He’s the only one for her at the moment. But I’m a little worried he’s gonna get hurt 😂

Dull episode. Is this still Ron’s outlines? lol At some point, you have to admit that Cwikly/Ford are boring headwriters. They write scenes, not stories. 

Yeah @John

That’s what Melinda did. 

I kinda hope she pays for her fraud this time 

@AbcNbc247

Chad?  Looking real good and not hot? Should I watch?😂

Who's Mark?

Billy Flynn in jeans 😉😂😂

Mark Greene, the cute doctor who may or may not have been gay 😉

Oh, yeah, I guess that makes sense too.  I was perhaps giving Days too much credit and thinking eventually they might flashback to a scene where Aaron did ask her that and she assured him it wasn't.

I had forgotten all about him.

I miss him. He had a lot of potential.

But at the same time, we might have been spared another one of those nasty ass Ron storylines where a “straight” guy tosses away his girlfriend for Leo, so maybe it was a good thing

Anything’s possible. I think they would just need to plan out the storyline a little better.

And it would be the perfect reason why Sophia gave up “Tate’s” baby, when she wants to be with him so much 

DAYS is just boring. PC/JMF need to shake things up and the narrative that they are still using RC outlines is ridiculous. I am hoping the Fall kicks off something really exciting for the show.

Days is beyond boring! Not much happens. This crap is all Cwikly and Ford. They are terrible headwriters. 

All about Tate’s baby today.

Gotta admit, I was a little surprised that Steve and Javi had scenes. And they were actually pretty good. Steve, using his own past to give Javi a reason to try and adopt Tesoro was a good use of history. And having Steve be the one to motivate him adds another dynamic to this whole baby storyline, since he’s also the one who’s helping Brady.

And now that Javi’s revealed what happened to his own child, I’m looking forward to seeing what happens next and the conflicts that it could bring. If we’re forced to endure Javi/Leo, at least let them go through the conflicts that every soap couple goes through. 

But yeah, Melinda’s just annoying. And this “I did it for Haley” excuse never made any sense to me. Not with Nicole and Sloan and definitely not now. Not only does it make her look blind and tone deaf, makes her look a little creepy and obsessive. I think it’s time to write her out. 

And, I’m tired of Rachel’s snake too, even though I’m glad that it led to Marlena telling Tate that she had that Queen of the Night dream again. Weaving Tate and his drama into all of that somehow could be pretty interesting.

As for Days, in general, I can see what people mean when they say that it’s been a little boring lately, but it’s still better than all the other soaps right now, with the possible exception of GH. 

Jennifer is going to blow a gasket over Chad and Cat being together. If she does, she needs to MYOB.
