I think they need to consider that DAYS viewers aren't home at that time of day are mostly at work. They probably catch up at night

by Anonymousreply 33October 16, 2021 3:36 PM

R33 That is why Y&R has always done so well, its timeslot coincides with lunch. So even with streaming it is probably more likely to be streamed live on Paramount+, rather than on demand at night.

I suspect, and have heard that, GH is similar for Hulu, as DAYS is for Peacock.

NO, the writers who excellently wrote Will's coming out had him OUT and accepting his homosexuality.

After this, he had endless flashbacks to his sex with her.

Will questioning his sexuality (briefly) and sleeping with Gabi was definitely done to give the baby plot,

However, it's not uncommon for someone who's first coming out to have doubts about his sexuality, especially if he's just gotten his heart broken like Will had in that instance.

I've met several gay men over the years who told of similar situations -- came out, got heart broken, got involved with a woman (for a night or for a longer period) and then came out again.

The writers did it for a plot device, but its something that definitely happens in real life.

R168 That would actually make Julie and Nick "first cousins once removed."

i.e. Julie and Jessica (Nick's mother) were first cousins, so any child of Jessica's would be "once removed" from her first cousin relationship to Julie.

Second cousins would be the respective children of two first cousins. So Julie's son, David, and Jessica's son, Nick, would be considered "second cousins."

R179 the Salem Strangler storyline used to be up in YouTube, it was pretty chilling for a soap

They obviously were ripping off the early 80s slasher craze and it was a mystery who the killer was and he was targeting women he considered immoral and whores

He also wore a white mask and killed a victim while she was on the phone with the phone cord strangulation, just like Michael Myers in Halloween when he killed Lynda

I have a friend who is a die-hard DOOL fan and who spent his childhood and teen years (the 90s and early 00s) recording the current show, carefully labeling his tapes, and also ordering dozens of classic Days tapes from old tape collector sites. He needed a place to store the numerous boxes and I live in a big old house with lots of closets, so when lockdown hit I had this voluminous DOOL tape archive in a closet off the dining room. By mid-March 2020, I hauled out an old TV/VCR combo, set it up in the kitchen by the kitchen table, and spent the next year working my way through the archive. It started with the first week or two in 1965, then jumped to the mid-70s for Doug and Julie's wedding, then he basically had half a dozen tapes for each year of the 80s and then most of the 90s and early 00s intact.

Last winter, he showed up with a shopping bag full of DVDs he burned of 2004-2009 and I managed to watch most of those while stuck at home (to be fair, I was usually cleaning or doing homework/studying during it). When John and Marlena bailed out in 2009, I lost interest. He's talking about digitizing them soon.

But 1965? VCRs for consumers weren't even available at that point. How did he get tapes of shows from 1965?

R185, it's a mystery to me, too. You can see old film-type countdowns at the beginning of each episode and time stamps/counters at the bottom. Maybe there were production reels/copies converted to videotape at one point? There's no commercials on these (ditto 1976). They're also kind of greenish/ghostly in color, like off an old monitor. I don't think commercials turn up on the tapes until the 80s.

Some of those old tape collectors/traders had weird bootleg stuff. I've seen a big portion of Marie's 1966 storyline online, too, and it has the same look.

by Anonymousreply 186November 4, 2021 8:39 PM

The first week or so has circulated for years, so I would assume that is some of the ones you said he purchased from a collector. The Internet Archive has the premiere episode, for instance. I didn't realize that Julie, then played by Charla Doherty, was actually the first character introduced to the audience. So it is especially amazing that she is still appearing regularly in 2021.

R251 Which is why I think he made it such a major part of Beyond Salem. The desires of Peacock, Hulu, and Paramount+, is going to affect the remaining soaps much more than the networks over the next few years. The directive in so many of these companies is to grow the streaming arm because they know liner tv is dying. As long as the soaps are positive forces in growing subscriber bases and bringing people to the app day after day, I think they will get much more respect and latitude.

The streamers don't care as much about the18-49 women demographic or whatever that the networks do, because it really doesn't matter as much to them. They just want as many people watching as possible.

I can watch a show and receive completely different ads than what you see watching the same program. I used to have a job where I would place ads for political and non-profits. When it came to the streaming platforms, I was able to say "We want to focus on men in their twenties" or whatever and they'd be like ok. But, the ads would appear on many different shows, they based it on the subscriber not the program.

Honestly, what I see happening, especially with DAYS and GH is that they will continue to air on network tv but I see Peacock and Hulu becoming the primary "network" and NBC and ABC becoming secondary, basically the reverse of today. Once the streaming arm becomes the primary buyer/producer the episodes will cost the network less money to air in daytime and the networks will keep them airing in daytime because they would now be cheaper, for them. The streaming platforms might air episodes a week before they hit the network or something, to sell their platforms.

R340 Do you really think the streaming platform would produce 250 episodes a year, though? I'm assuming that's what you mean when you say the network would air the episodes on Plain Old Television during the daytime a week after they've streamed.

by Anonymousreply 341November 17, 2021 12:06 AM

R341 It depends. They might take breaks during the year. But, what appears to be of value to streamers is that people who watch their soaps on a platform visit the platform everyday or at least multiple times a week. Therefore I would think they would want a large steady stream of episodes so that people continue to visit the platform.

Not to mention they have the unadorned cross more popular in Protestant churches, and orthodox style icons. How can Satan be there?

Tony arrived in Salem to cause trouble for his wife, Liz Chandler (played by Gloria Loring, mother of singer Robin Thicke). Tony and Liz had never been officially divorced from their marriage years earlier, which meant that Liz's recent marriage to lawyer Don Craig was invalid. Tony refused to sign divorce papers.

by Anonymousreply 401November 23, 2021 4:37 PM

As a new viewer, I didn’t realize Phillip has a fake leg until the preview. I did think he walked stiffly though.

by Anonymousreply 402November 23, 2021 4:44 PM

Philip lost his leg in a bizarre Iraq mission in 2004 or 2005, which involved Sami as Dan, if I recall correctly.

He's some of that history:

Philip and Belle got engaged, with Philip thrilled that he and Belle were going to be able to live their lives together. Unfortunately, just as they were getting engaged, Philip was being called to active duty in Iraq. The two moved up their wedding plans, getting married immediately before Philip had to ship out. Philip returned home, but he had lost the lower part of his leg in connection to a Tony DiMera plot. He was thrilled to learn of Belle's pregnancy. Claire Kiriakis was born at St. Luke's on what was supposed to have been her maternal half-aunt Sami's wedding to her paternal half-uncle Lucas. Unfortunately, the wedding never happened.

Philip, Belle and the baby were transported to the hospital, and it was there that Belle and Philip chose their daughter's name -- it was a mutual favorite -- and Shawn and Mimi consented to be the child's godparents. When baby Claire became ill, Kate learned that her blood type was AB- and after talking to a medical student realized that there was no way Philip could be Claire's father, and soon realized that it must be Shawn. Unfortunately for poor Claire, her health continued to deteriorate, and it wasn't long before Lexie Carver realized that if Claire didn't get a liver transplant, she wouldn't survive. Luckily for Claire, Zack Brady was a match, and she received his liver after he died.

Claire recovered, and her parents were thrilled, but when the truth finally emerged about her paternity, thanks to Chelsea's intervention, Philip left town for a number of weeks, and Shawn tried to adjust to being Claire's father. Belle didn't want him near her initially, especially after learning of his relationship with Willow, a former prostitute. Belle and Shawn finally began to reach an agreement about Claire when she was kidnapped from a diner. This terrified both Belle and Shawn, who then fell under scrutiny from social services. Unbeknownst to anyone, on the occasions when Belle would allow Victor to visit with Claire, she was also spending time with Philip, who had been injured in his duties as a Marine and needed reconstructive surgery.

When the case finally went to court, Philip showed up, having just had a face transplant, and won temporary custody of Claire, who was legally his daughter because he was married to Belle at the time of her birth and was named as her father on the birth certificate. Shortly after, Shawn and Belle kidnapped the little girl and fled the country, with Philip desperate to find out what had happened to the child he'd raised for the first year of her life. Philip was willing to use any methods to get Claire back, including teaming up with E.J. Wells.

Philip began his attempts to win Belle back, but she still maintained her relationship with Shawn. Belle and Philip even became lovers again after her father, John, died, but Belle chose to marry Shawn. When Shawn messed up at a crime scene, Philip offered to do anything he could to help Shawn with his career -- if Belle would sleep with him. Belle agreed to do so, but at the last moment, Philip felt guilty and told her she didn't have to go through with it. Shawn, Belle, and Claire left Salem soon after to bond as a family.

I'm sure she would make a great screen partner for the older set as well. I could see her and Doug and Julie hanging out, maybe she and Doug could sing a duet.

As the nubie, I will say if Chandler Massey is really straight, in real life, he is an actor comparable to Streep. Because he captures the role so well, I'd think he was just playing himself.

I follow Brandon Beemer on Twitter. (Yeah, I know.) He frequently “likes” pictures of slutty looking women barely dressed.

R540 I think Chandler was more comfortable/convincing playing gay when he returned to the role in 2017 after being gone for 3 years or so. His look and mannerism as Will just had a softness that most straight dudes can't pull off or would only mock. I'm a bit surprised he's so straight now in RL with a beard and a blonde gf.

I'll try to make this my last newbie observation. I haven't seen Allison Sweeny's Sami before her kidnapping and maybe it is just the wardrobe but she seems kinda trashy white, whereas Dee Dee looks and acts like middle class white, but Chandler's Will seems like a mixture of them. He really was perfect casting. He looks more like Marlena, Sami, and Belle, than Allie does.

by Anonymousreply 546December 10, 2021 2:58 AM

R546 Sami is kind of white trashy only due to her impulsiveness and the messes she creates or gets herself into. The rest of the family is kind of embarrassed by her. Will would often roll his eyes or throw his hands in the air when talking about her with Sonny.

Susan said she would vote Democratic if EJ asked her to.

R550 She said it like voting for a Dem is a bigger sacrifice than giving up her own life for EJ! That's like saying never since EJ would never ask something that horrible.

He’s an amputee with an artificial leg. Of course he’s not dead. The show “forgets” this fact when it’s convenient.

I watched Bryan Datillo and Lauren Koslow in a scene today and thought they’re looking closer and closer in age to each other. (They are mother and son for anyone who doesn’t know). Datillo is 50 and looks it although he is in decent shape for his age. Koslow is 68 and has had a ton of plastic surgery, but she doesn’t look that old.

Lauren Koslow’s son is a great big queen

R557 Let us all praise her surgeon, his/her name should be shared from LA, to Nashville, to NYC, and beyond. Everyday we are subjected to another ageing star with horrible plastic surgeries. Many of whom are major stars with a lot more wealth than a Soap Queen no matter how great she is. If she can afford quality work so can some others, cough, cough Faith Hill.

Bjorlin needs to ask LK about her surgeon.

Beemer needs some work done, too.

MArtsolf has been under the knife more than once. His hair piece was noticeable yesterday.

by Anonymousreply 560December 11, 2021 12:35 PM

Martsolf is 50 like Datillo. He also looks it. His face seems very fleshy now. Funny how the women look youthful (plastic surgery or not), but a lot of the men look their age.

Is Lucas Sami's kidnapper? The Soap Central Fraus are having meltdowns thinking that Lumi is destroyed forever if this is true.

I’ve started watching this on Peaccock again regularly after not watching for years. I have a couple of questions.

1.) Why does every scene seem to occur at night? The show looks so dark, and it’s not just that every set is painted grey. Is that deliberate ?

2. One most soaps the front burner storyline would air daily. I feel like Marlena hasn’t been onscreen in several days. It seems like In the internet of keeping so many characters on the canvas the show has all the characters on this odd rotational schedule. Is that what is happening?

by Anonymousreply 563December 11, 2021 3:42 PM

R563

1. I think it's because M-W was part of one evening/night in Salem. Thursday is the start of a new day and the scenes should be brighter.

2. Yes, MarDevil was last seen on Friday a week ago in the cabin with Ben and Ciara along with guardian angel Gabriel. This week she's not featured at all because the Phllip murder case is featured instead this week. MarDevil will return next week.

R564 I was wrong. It seems the whole last week was one night in Salem so the lighting was dim for all the scenes.

by Anonymousreply 565December 13, 2021 7:41 AM

I’ve always preferred when soaps are set at night, especially ones like Days which doesn’t do much if any actual outdoor filming. The inside “outdoor” sets look more believable at night than they do during “daylight.”

by Anonymousreply 566December 13, 2021 2:33 PM

Actually I meant every scene seems to be at night not just the past week. I’ve been watching again for about a month. It always seems to be evening
..does it help keep the costs down setting the show at night ?

R567 Today is the start of a new "day" in Salem. The scenes with windows or "outdoors" seem relatively bright to me.

R573 Today seems especially bad... RSW did soap stares for most of the cabin scenes instead of reacting to the big revelation of Marlena being MarDevil.

Is there a new thread? I figured there would be more activity with the Christmas movie dropping today.

Also, I know everyone else in Salam has their own dramas going on. But, in the real world if Satan was known to be real and running around loose in any town in America, you know people would be freaking out and talking about it non-stop. It makes episodes like today's seem like they are taking place in another world, I mean dimension.

I like how the show has a habit of making sons basically the younger version of their mother. Will is basically Sammi Jr. and Phillip is Kate Jr. Also, I know Tripp isn't Kayla's real son, but he is basically Kayla Jr.

Ok, sorry, newbie question again. Who all lives in Marlana and John's house? Because I want to know, who decorated the house? Marlana is possessed and on the run, John is in and out of the hospital and when he isn't he is chasing the devil. Brady was in the hospital and is now in jail. Belle has been a little too worried and busy to decorate her mom's house. Also, Brady is the lone caregiver for his daughter, right?

Who is taking care of her?

And, who the hell, wink, decorated that house?
