It does look cheap but the concept of having a limited series with a contained storyline is a great one. It'd be awesome if they'd get other directors, writers, directors of photography, locations, etc and give each limited series a distinct look and feel. However, I think Corday and the unions have too much hold over Days productions.

I also loved how Christmas would stretch to 3 months worth of episodes and then it was suddenly… Easter!
Reilly loved the genre though and had a soap pedigree, starting as a staff writer on Ryan’s Hope and even All My Children in the early 80s, in a rare interview, Reilly said his favorite AMC character to write for at that time was Opal Gardner, played then by Dorothy Lyman, who was a campy, white trashy, comic relief character who was into palm reading and other psychic shit and who opened up her own beauty shop in Pine Valley

R46 I think Tinker is sitting on a chair in front of desk, and he first raises one leg up and rests it on top of the other (crosses legs), so you can see his knee. .. It looks like he eventually raises both legs up and rests his heels on the chair while his legs are against the edge of the desk. Perhaps this latter pose is similar to one he uses while jacking off to online porn, especially if he's going to finger his hole or stick an ohmibod up there.

If they wanted to move into the 21st century, the series would have lost most of the cheesy, groan-worthy double-entendres and not been centered in soap opera parody. Both of these elements reflect some of the cheapest, easiest writing on the planet - neither new nor fresh - appealing primarily to those who titter over juvenile sex jokes and like watching a Carol Burnett sketch.. ..

[quote]Don’t most soaps recast parts and the actors don’t even resemble each other
It usually depends on why they're recasting.
In the past, if they are recasting a popular role where the actor is leaving because they want to move on or something, the show would usually try to recast with a resemblance in mind or alter the new actor in a way to make them resemble the previous actor.
Sometimes a show wants to take a character in a different direction. Usually because the current actor sucks or because the character isn't connecting with the audience and they will recast with an actor who is different.
Now, it seems like they don't really care about resemblance so much. But a lot of shows will rest a character for a bit before doing a recast, especially for popular roles.

As a soap watcher-critic who's interested in the overall genre, one might feel compelled to watch several episodes of B.S. just to see what it's about. Thank god this "several" was only five episodes, though. That was enough.
It rates a C+ for me. The +plus+ is only because casting did its job by finding Hot Sonny, signing Peter Porte, and luring back Eileen Davidson. If those three elements were now added to the main show, I might reconsider it.
btw - One can't even say that TPTB are trying something new or different here. Days already did the "Last Blast" thing less than two years ago, which was a streaming-only show on NBC.com. The network simply changed its platform name to Peacock. .. And as for the story itself, the press has referred to this as a "90s style caper." So nothing new on that front either. In fact, back in the 90s, we would more than likely have gotten an actual location shoot. The editors of this fluff couldn't even get their stock footage inserts right. One time they showed clips of Zurich at night, and when we went inside Austin and Carrie's residence, it was clearly daytime with sunlight shining in the rooml. ..

R122 and you said it best, it was a SOAP OPERA, not a mainstream dramatic series like Mad Men. If it gets Emmy noms it’s for DAYTIME Emmy’s. Not Primetime Emmys.

R120 I'm not hating. I rated it C+. That's "average." And, you;re right, if it were to continue, I would not watch, so there's no need to have to have a HISSY FIT that someone disagrees with you. .

.The best SOAP OPERA for 2020-21 on any platform is also on Peacock . It's called "100 Dias Para Enamorarnos" (100 Days to Fall in Love).
Just turn the English captions on.

Honestly, I've never really watched DAYS, but this was a a fun little series where I didn't really didn't need to know much about DAYS to follow the story. It reminded me of an extended week long version of those special primetime episodes soaps used to do in the '90s.
It did its job with me, because now I will check out regular DAYS. Billy Flynn is hot AF. If they were to bring Will and Sonny back to the regular show I will surely watch.

To all gay men watching soap operas: You do not matter! Advertisers never ask about you. Advertisers on soap operas shy away from gay storylines. #fact All you gay homos do not matter in the world of soaps. Find a hobby.

I thought the Ben and Ciara sex party stuff was fun and allowed us a break from their relentless declarations of love for each other, at least for a scene or two.

RE: Nikki
- Nikki Reed and victim Joshua Cassein, were 5-year old playmates who found Nick Reed's loaded gun in the house and began playing with it. She could hardly be prosecuted for something like that. Nick was at fault for leaving a loaded gun in the house.
- Nick Reed's death was self-defense as he was trying to rape Nikki. To thwart his attack, Nikki grabbed a nearby lamp and hit him over the head with it. He was knocked out, but didn't immediately die. He later succumbed in the hospital begging for forgiveness for his pedo-ways.
- The lascivious Walter Addison had a heart attack in his hotel room while in hot pursuit of Nikki, as he became over-excited over the prospect of fucking her, and she was trying to get away from him. .. Nikki had no idea that Rose DeVille was a pimp who'd sent her to Walter's hotel room as a paid escort. Walter dropped dead on his own. .. The only reason why it looked like murder is because Rose and Vince dragged Walter's corpse out to the alley, where some young hoodlum named Tony then stole Walter's wallet, so that's why the police were (erroneously) investigating it as a robbery turned felony murder.
- Nikki killing Dianejenkins was self-defense. Diane was trying to shoot Nikki up with a syringe filled with something that would kill her, she then tried to choke Nikki to death. Nikki had to bash her over the head with a rock.
- Nikki originally took the blame for the car accident that caused Christine to miscarry her baby, but she did so to protect her drunk AA buddy, Neil Winters. Neil eventually confessed.
- Nikki helped "kill" Jeffrey Todd Hellstrom with the other women when J.T. was physically abusing her daughter, Victoria. But it turned out that they hadn't really killed him. They'd simply knocked him out him out and put him in a grave that he dug himself out of. .. So again, no murder.
