I hate the mind chip nonsense, but this is Days and it can't help being outlandish. But I love Will and Ben being cozy in their cell! Even being locked up with his killer is better than being boring with chubby Sonny.

I'm not a fan of most of the time jump storylines but I'm impressed with how fast some of them have already been resolved.

Eric finding out that he had a kid with Sarah for example (& that Nicole has known for about a year).

It looks like Lani could tell Eli what Gabi has done to Julie before 2020 rolls in.

R17 It's current but I guess no on has anything new to say.

The last DOOL thread (part 10) was paywalled so this one was added.

I'm bored by the time jump =

JJ whining about another dead girlfriend while having another addiction.

Justin & Stinkface sleepwalking thru their scenes like they have a 20 year future.

More of Ciara talking about how innocent & good Ben is.

The believability of Eli running into his last ex 1 year later in a convent on another continent.

Now we have waitress Kate hanging out with old love Stefano Steve.

The only good thing about all of these dumb, unbelievable & rehashed stories is that I didn't have to waste a year watching them all unfold (again in some cases).

Coming up we have another baby medical scare (right after another little girl kidnapping concludes) & another baby switch reveal that seems too far fetched for anyone to take seriously.

Why doesn't the show add a lesbian love triangle to the show? It would be something new for Salem to deal with/talk about instead of the same old same old.

Sorry for my unfinished post at R19. My cat (that I was holding the time) accidentally posted that one before I could finish it. Bad kitty.

R18, how I look at it is, while I may not like many, make that most of the time jump stories, it did jostle up the pairings a bit and at least give us a puzzle with a different ending, that we’re getting the story told to us bit by bit lately. Something different...even if it’s not what we wanted it to be.

The only story I’m truly hating is JJ! It’s like off yourself already if you’re so miserable . I’m actually looking forward to Stefano Steve not loving Sweetness no more and Kate rubbing it in Kaylas face.

BTW: Abe brought up Celeste just the other day.

The post Time Jump writing sucks as much if not more than before! Outside of Gay Will being in homoerotic prison and Manny Evan being hunky, everything else is so boring and unexciting.

by Anonymousreply 23December 12, 2019 5:26 AM

R23, what exactly did you find homoerotic about Will’s prison situation? I don’t feel it between Will & Ben, but the day Clyde got Will alone, it felt a little rapey. I thought. Is Clyde going to throat fuck Will or go right for his ass? Then it turned all murdery.

Manny Evan should hold out for Rafe.

by Anonymousreply 24December 12, 2019 5:37 AM

R24 Looking for any homoeroticism in the writing is a lost cause, since Ron is hellbent on keeping Ben obsessed with Ciara, and he seems to want Will in prison for shock/novelty value more than anything else. But with my expectations low, just Will getting to interact with any male beside Sonny (who's the opposite of erotic) and show off his body in the process is homoerotic enough in my book! Yes, Evan is wasted on Sonny. Rafe must be lonely in that house so Evan can crawl into his bed.

I really don't see what TPTB had in store for this time jump other than to get more short term viewers for a renewal.

Long term what are these plots going to do for the characters?

Does JJ 2 years from now open up an addiction center?

Does JJ become best buds with Kristen?

Does a remorseful Kristen open up the Haley Chen memorial foundation?

Does Julie's Place become the top eatery in the midwest?

Does someone else become the Phoenix (a.k.a. Stefano) or is he gone for good when Cyclops gets an "exorcism"? Princess Gina gone for good as well?

Does Gabi get redeemed somehow after all the awful things she has done or is she the new villainess replacing Kristen?

Does JJ hate Ben (who killed Paige) as much as Kristen(who killed Haley) & if so then why didn't he try to off Ben within the past couple of years?

If JJ forgives & forgets Kristen's murder then will he also go to Ben & say he forgives him as well? Will they be buddies in a year or two?

Will Jennifer mope around about the year she missed in her life or will it be like it never even happened?

If Adrienne is really dead, will Justin get with Bonnie when Stinkface goes back to her Cyclops?

The only thing I'm interested in now is surprisingly Mama Trask. Is Melinda out looking for Kristen too? Is she helping JJ in any way? Will she get revenge on Kristen in some way? Is she still the D.A.?

Boy this thread has slowed down big time!

I did like seeing Eve released from prison but I'm sad that the character is leaving Salem.

She was a joy to watch.

It looks like Melinda Trask has moved to Chicago based on JJ saying he was going to visit her there.

I guess she quit her job in Salem when Haley died?

The Horton Xmas was sweet as always but Eve showing up really spiced it up.

I hope she will return soon to wreck havoc on Jack & Jenn.

Xander has been boring to watch lately fussing over Sarah & a baby that isn't even his.

Hopefully Theo & Celeste (who both keep being mentioned) will return to bring some new blood to this boring show.

Hattie getting out of prison so soon is another far fetched plot device & I hope she either brings something the show is missing (fun,excitement,mystery) or departs quickly for greener pastures.

Susan Hayes and Suzanne Rogers are very good friends IRL. Not sharing scenes together is a matter of budget, not preference.

However, there have long been rumors about Suzanne Rogers and Deidre Hall. Maggie and Marlena were also great friends and shared many scenes, and Suzanne costarred in the TV movie about Dee's struggle for children, but the two are very rarely on screen together the past decade or so, even in crowd scenes.

seriously their are only what 4 soaps on right now and i can't even think of when was the last time there was a hot sex scene on days of our lives minus the xander/leo/brady stuff and the occassional brady in bed with kristen, all which happened months ago...and even then they don't show actual lovemaking, just post coital and seducing/flirtations...

BACK IN THE DAY, soaps had tons of sex nearly every single episode, in fact, that was THEE attraction for the soaps! If anything, the powers that be now in "soap land" have forgotten this....

who are these people complaining about too much sex on the soaps? totally opposite of fraus at home in the 80's and 90's when not only was sex scenes on every soap regularly and pretty hot i might add, but the daytime talk shows had male strippers on regularly, male beauty contests, hunk episodes and so on...

as far as being "forced" to watch gay sex, the only fraus that would complain about this i would think live in the middle of bumfuck nowhere, be offended by anything that isn't "christian" and who think soap operas are high brow in the first place! then again, they wouldn't know what high brow even means...Either way, one would think this is a small tiny number of viewers! guess they are the loudest ones though?..

interesting (since you brought up Kate) that when kate and daniel had their pool romp, when poor poor sick kate used her illness, beauty and her seductive skills as a former high class call girl to seduce yet again (1st time he was horny and drunk, this 2nd time he was lucid) daniel, the much younger gorgeous hunky built boyfriend of her OWN granddaughter chelsea, that NO LOVEMAKING WAS EVEN SHOWN between the two, just some making out and then VOILA! we see them lying together on a pool chair after the deed!?

I always wondered why? i mean both characters had scorching soft porn sex scenes with others on that show and since it was suppose to be wicked taboo, that grandmother seducing the younger stud boyfriend of her own granddaughter, not giving a shit about chelsea and a power trip horny lust trip to get hunky daniel yet again, and she and daniel having sex yet again (after both confessed about their first time and how it meant NOTHING and so on and for chelsea to please forgive and forget about it! and daniel begging her and that he didn't want to lose her! laugh!) one would think they would show it BIG TIME! and yet nothing?

strange to me! i always wondered was this a director decision, the writer's, the actors (perhaps they weren't the best of co-workers?) etcetera..

It annoys me that STeve has been back for like a day and people are suspicious of him while Gina has been Hope for over a year and is still getting away with it

by Anonymousreply 107January 5, 2020 11:19 PM

I think they're not suspicious of Hope because Gina knows how to do Hope, sich she's impersonated Hope before. Plus Hope has really been through it these last few years, so if she's acting wonky, they can all blame it on the divorce, Ben and Ciara, losing her job and a bunch of other shit. Plus Gina has accepted that she's in Hope's body and called it "adequate". Stefano just hates that he's in Steve's body.

What was a little "plotty" to me was Marlena's reaction to Hope living in the penthouse and her overall reaction to Hope since she's been back.

I hope the next story Ron does is finally answer the question about the Marlena clones.

I know r102 those fraus who complained about having to see "gay stuff" being shown on their soaps was said to be a factor in you only saw that scene of Luke and Noah "sex scene" was them kiss then next you saw time you saw them was coming out the room post sex in ATWT and why the next time you saw Will and Paul have sex years later it was referred to as "making love" and the camera eventually began to pan away as the action begin until the last shot was of their shoes then the next shot of them is in bed post sex.

R105 EJ fucking Abby was also seen as "too hot for daytime tv" and complaints about "too much sex" on Days with Ben fucking Abby on a near regular basis or on "too much sex" on B&B by some of those fraus.

That tepid sex scene between Ben and Ciara was recently called "very hot" but it was mostly by those crazy Cin fans.

The only thing I like now is Victor on his death bed.

He should've been replaced awhile ago with the writers giving his famous one liners to someone else.

I can't stand Justin & Stinkface together. Their scenes have no chemistry between them & act like siblings rather than warm blooded lovers.

No one seems to be happy on the show except for Jack & Jen. JJ is an addict so even that makes his parents joy seem a bit off.

I don't see any new plots to lay the ground work for the spring or summer (unless Theo & Celeste return). I heard Claire is returning sometime in 2020 (YES!).

Maybe TPTB will rename the show "Days Of Our Depressions" to reflect the misery of all of the characters.

A little while back, someone here wondered if Evan killed Jordan and might even be David's father. I've wondered, too, and his scenes with Sonny -- then Rafe -- the other day made me wonder all the more. His admission to Sonny that he feels David is better off without his mother, and his low-key reaction when Rafe asked Sonny to pass along paperwork to Justin that would start the adoption process, were a bit on the sinister side (as was the accompanying music). Could he have been in the loony bin with Jordan?

While the impeachment hearings in November and December caused the other three soaps to be pre-empted on several days (thus causing them to be behind), every episode of Days aired during those hearings. Even if it didn't air in its traditional time slot (1 p.m. in most of the country), a new episode was released On Demand and on NBC.com and many stations aired that episode in the late night/early morning hours.

That should continue during this impeachment trial as Days films so far in advance. As r188 points out, they have everything timed out to end with a big cliffhanger before the Olympics starts.

He's learned to tone things down as he's gotten more experienced as an actor. He definitely pinged every now and then when he first started.

But the rumor about him being gay took off a few years ago when a poster here said he had tricked with Billy. And he gave enough details and insider info about what they discussed to be believable. Most of the insider info he shared also checked out later on.

Steve only has 1 eye= his right eye. His other eye was just an empty socket that he wore an eye patch to cover. The only eye that was restored by Stefan ( 2 years ago) was his tight eye. He continued to have a missing left eye.

Stevano now has a left eye that is fake and has the implanted memories.

Billy Flynn did some play. Where rich people can download themselves into new bodies and his character was a woman who died and had herself downloaded into a male body. So Billy may be waiting on his Tony nomination.

He could have been a hot head young know it all doctor like Grandpa Bill or he could have been a sleazy bad boy like the Johnsons or he could have been a preppy rich boy with an I'm better than you attitude being groomed for politics like Jack.

He could have still been a young leading man and still be rotten.

What I would have done is made him like Grandpa Bill and would have just retold a version of the Bill/Mickey/Laura story. With JJ as Bill. Mike's son Jeremy as Mickey. And some new character as a Laura type, maybe a young intern and protege of Marlena. JJ could be a pill popping, womanizing, brilliant young intern.

Ron Carlivati: I think it’s important to honor the actor and the character and the longevity, and also for the fans that have watched that person for so many years. We found a way in by there being an unexpected death in the family that has an impact on Doug and causes him to reminisce about when he first came to town. I don't want to give away too much, but there will be a very nice day that honors him.

Speculation is that Bill Horton will die offscreen, since Doug first appeared on the show as Bill's prison cellmate.

Tom Jr. & Sandy are the "forgotten" Hortons -- the branch of the family tree that just faded away/went nowhere. (even Marie's grandkid had a big storyline). I'd like to think Tommy is living out his senior years in an exclusive retirement community in Hawaii.

REMINDS me of how back in the day in the 80s and 90's male strippers, male hunk contests and so on were regularly shown on daytime tv (male strippers actually stripping and wearing thongs and explicit) and if they showed this stuff now, it would be seen as "sick, outrageous, wrong" and outraged among many? and very very most likely would never even be aired on daytime tv!

WHAT HAPPENED??? ..

I hear you R308 about telfer... off the charts smoking he is! and yes, i remember that chloe/daniel sex scene episode! that goodness i recorded it! (and any sex scenes, shirtless scenes with daniel , i.e. shawn christian!)... i did find it ODD though that his torrid dirty forbidden sex pool romp with kate where horny grandma former high price call girl kate seduces him yet again this gorgeous built handsome young stud away from her own granddaughter and daniel being the himbo he is is easily seduced that they didn't show these 2 kate and daniel (shawn christian and lauren koslow) ACTUALLY GOING AT IT??? ! i found that odd then and now! i mean BOTH have done scorching soft porn like sex scenes before with others and since this was such a taboo forbidden scene one would think they would have shown them doing the deed, instead all we got was seduction on kate's part, daniel's confusion and "this is wrong" turned into lust and then some kissing? FAST FORWARD to them laying together under the covers on a pool chair after the deed? WHAT WAS UP WITH THAT??..

course the director and the writers had them, the 2 characters acting like they are NOW in a relationship and in love?? THAT SCENE could have been so so much hotter and erotic then it was (although still hot)!

R318 So much for Rafe being untouchable on the show. I wish they'd give some of the vets a 13 or 26 week break & hire younger actors for some varied storylines.

How many times can Jarlena be kidnapped? I heard Stefano had 4 brothers (presumably younger) & that none of them have been portrayed on thh show yet. I think this would be a great opportunity for some new blood (& villains) for the show..

I know some siblings that are about 20 years apart so these could be in the 55-65 age range (younger than Vaggie, Jarlena, Patch /Kayla, Abe, & Jack). I don't know why they don't try to get some of the under 50 actors from the cancelled soaps (ATWT, GL, AW, SB, AMC, OLTL, Passions. etc). that have built in fan bases (as opposed to the new Asian guy & Hispanic girl they've hire for 2020).

I want to see Will's bum.

Well this news should please fired former HW Dena because one of her jobs when she came back yo the show was to completely rid Salem of its gays.

There had already been rumors that one of the EP's on the show ended the Leo storyline early because they thought the show had once again become "too gay" in their opinion and something needed to be done about it.

Even a gay-friendly focus group would tell you that WilSon is a snoozefest.

They are purging all the young actors!

Are they cutting all these people to pay for the old folks?

It's February Massacre at Days!

by Anonymousreply 333February 12, 2020 10:44 PM

The actors defended the show when everyone was let off contract for the long hiatus. Then after the show got renewed, they called people back to work just to fire them. How's that for screwing them over? Days has always had very inconsiderate management.

I'm thrilled FCF has been fired!

Hopefully, Chandler will come back with Christopher Sean as Paul. Paul/Will was Chandler's hottest and only viable pairing.

They probably won't let RSW go considering that he's one of Albert's "special" favorites.

The show is on its last leg anyway... better the younger actors go out and find better roles.

Or return to college to get another degree, or find work at a used car lot in Ohio.

No. The old folks basically work for food and to maintain their SAG-AFTRA benefits. .. They also let them take home free samples from the hair and makeup room, so that's a real incentive for many, and the let them have an employee discount, if they'd like to buy some of the used clothes from the wardrobe dept.

I mean....Marlena and Hattie? Princess Gina? Like 30 years ago maybe? but it's so fucking BAD now. These people are TOO OLD to be getting brainwashed or "Busting out" of jail.

If not-Eileen Davidson killed Haley, why has she not been prosecuted or something?

Yesterday was Galen, Chandler & Freddie's last day on the show. According to Freddie & Chandler they weren't even called & told they were being let go. They called Galen. FS/CM read the scripts & went to management to ask what was going on. That's so tacky to handle it that way.

I'm actually okay about this. I'm not sorry to see Freddie go. He was awful and wrong for the part. I will miss Chandler, but he needed to leave to get out of his comfort zone and actually start looking for a job outside of soaps. Chandler needs to be auditioning and doing other things, not trapped on a soap forever, even though, I guess, it's better than waiting tables. Galen will end up on another soap or do guest spots in primetime. I doubt if we will ever see Casey or Freddie again unless the show brings them back.

He'll more than likely excel at the 'other things' part, but auditioning takes drive and motivation.

Yesterday was their last tape day. They will air for the next 6 months

by Anonymousreply 346February 15, 2020 11:33 AM

Freddie said in one of his recent videos that their last episode would air on Sept 18.

Since Galen taped his last episode on Feb 13 as well, his final air date should be somewhere around Sept 18 as well.

Freddie and Chandler might have been caught off guard by their firing, but Galen was clued in about Rafe being written off.

In this podcast, taped in mid January, Galen indicated that he was going back for a few weeks in February and then would be off the show. Go to Part 2 of the Galen interview. He talks about leaving Days around the 1 hour 1 minute mark.

It's hilarious how the show finally had a production hiatus, yet they're still going to have a six-month gap between taping and broadcast.
