DAYS: February 2026 Discussion Thread

Finally, Theo is out of the hospital!

I thought he was used pretty effectively today. I enjoyed his and Abe's conversation about Stefano and Lexie. It was a really nice family moment. And I also enjoyed Gabi confronting him about what he said to JJ about her and Philip's relationship. I did see some chemistry between them too. Nothing explosive, but I think there's something there.

And there was also something there between Gabi and JJ as well. Their scenes were nice too. Gabi, being curious about whether or not JJ was on a date with someone tells me that the ship hasn't sailed for the two of them. I hope that, if they go there with a big Philip/Gabi/Theo/etc. mess, JJ has a part in it as well. It would be a much better way to use him than how he was used today, even though I didn't hate the idea of him tailing Jeremy and then arguing about it with him and Julie later on. And I liked that JJ let Julie know that the way she's defending Jeremy is similar to the way that she defended Nick. She definitely needed to hear that lol and I'm looking forward to seeing what happens next, despite the clunkiness of the stalker storyline, as a whole. Jeremy and JJ looked good too.

As for EJ/Gwen, just like with Chad/Cat a few episodes ago, I think I would've enjoyed their scenes more if they had involved any character other than her.

But poor Liam though. I'm glad that his character is finally getting some movement but at the same time, I don't think tying him to Peter and the kidnapping was the right choice. I didn't expect him to be the one that had moved Stefano's bones though. But I did kind of expect him to not be a direct or willing accomplice to all of that, and I'm happy that I was right. And that it looks like his character isn't going to be completely ruined. There's so much that they can do with him/Hank Northrop and I hope that we get to see that for him sooner or later. Maybe something good will happen once Theo finds out... and that it'll somehow be tied to the potential mess with Gabi and everybody.

Cannot stand this Theo. A recast is needed. Otherwise, the show is still dull. The actors are sleepwalking through their scenes. They deserve better writing.

As much as I hate this storyline and the fact that Dimitri/Peter Porte is being wasted again, he looked soooooo hot and tempting today.😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Hotter than anyone's looked on Days in a while 😂😂😂

Once again, he alone, makes this all worth watching. If Leo wasn't such a dumbass selfish POS, I would completely understand why it's so hard for him to resist. I'm glad he did though. But yeah, they need to get Dimitri away from Leo and Gwen as soon as they can. And I'll say it again, Peter Porte is too talented to be stuck in this crap, and stuck with awful characters that have only about four fans between the two of them. He proves it every time he's onscreen. Besides, completely tying one character to another, and not allowing them to mix it up with other characters is always a mistake on soaps. That's probably the reason why I liked his and EJ's scenes a few episodes back, even though they were both campy and bitchy. There's so much that they can do with Dimitri/Peter. Have him try to investigate what's going on at the lab, and meet and fall in love with Mark. Or have him use Mark to try and make Leo jealous and then fall in love with him. And forget all about Leo 👍

It was also nice to see Stefano end up in his final resting place at the Dimera mansion lol even though Susan kinda messed up those scenes. I really don't care that she doesn't like Cat. It's time to kill her off... or at least send her ass back to Nashville.

Btw, welcome back, Eli! He looked really good too.

I liked seeing him and Rafe on the case in Alamainia. And that Vivian had no time for their crap. Even though I'm a little camped out when it comes to Days, and soaps in general, Louise Sorel always plays the campy villain really well. And I am a little interested in seeing her and Gwen's plan play out.

And I see that they like that ugly shade of green in Alamainia too 😂😂😂

Dimitri should have been Bo's son. It would have given him far more interesting connections beyond the Dimeras and Leo
