DAYS: December 2025 Discussion Thread

Today was a bit of a mixed bag. Not much happened. And we definitely should have gotten some follow-up with Chad, Tony and Kristen.

But poor Xander.

He did look hot at the beginning though 😂😂😍

And while I don't mind him moving on with someone else, for a little while anyway, I really wish that it wasn't with Gwen. There are other people on the canvas that he can be paired with, and other people who could have comforted him today. Stephanie, for example. And I did like the dorkiness of Maggie, Sarah and Holly. It's always nice to see Maggie catch up with her family. Btw, was the mention of Joe and Vic supposed to be foreshadowing?

I was also liking the dynamic between Abe and Theo, and I'm looking forward to seeing what happens, and if or how it's going to be tied to everything that EJ is doing at the clinic.

Catching up after the holiday. LOVED Leo’s proposal to Javi. Best couple on the show. Great work by Greg. Perhaps another Lead Actor Emmy nom for him.

I wonder what this could mean.😂😋😂😁😊☺️

Poor Jackee and James Reynolds. They literally have no storyline thanks to Paula and Jeanne. The rest of today’s show was - blah! Just scenes. Nothing to tie the show together.

It's been a while, hasn't it? 😂😂

Another change since Ron left 😂

Sorry, but Rachel got exactly what she deserved today.

I couldn't be happier to finally see her get locked up in Bayview where she belongs. This was a long time coming. It's good drama too. The acting was pretty good, both from Rachel and Brady, especially at the end of their scenes. And it's always good to see Brady act like a parent. Brady giving Rachel a gift that John gave him when he was a kid was really sweet too. And I'm curious to see if anything's going to happen with Rachel and Sophia.

I also enjoyed Marlena and Kayla's conversation. Marlena finally got the chance to explain how she's been feeling since everything about Rachel was revealed. I'm glad that she had Kayla to confide in, and that she was able to sit down with Brady and start discussing everything that she did. I'm interested in seeing what happens next for the two of them, especially now that Brady's told her that he doesn't want her involved in Rachel's care. I just hope that her Lyme disease diagnosis leads to something more and something bigger being revealed. Just having Marlena's illness be Lyme disease would be a letdown. And while I'm not too sure about this, "It's all EJ's fault" dynamic that they've introduced into this storyline, I wouldn't mind Kayla being a part of the investigation about the lab.

But as always, Gwen and Leo/Javi were unnecessary. Even if I liked them, they wouldn't have been necessary today.

And yeah, with all this talk about Chad, we really should have seen him.
