OCTOBER COSTUMES FOR DOOL

The brats are back...

A link to the old Sept. thread =

NuNu Teens.

Re: Tate

Any son of Queen Brady and Bitch Theresa should be gay.

Plus, gay Paul and Tate are uncle-nephew, as are gay Andrew and Tate - so the twink has a double dose of that commonly-found genetic factor at play.

Holly can be TikTok Tate's hag.

r4 He also got a strong dose of the gay gene from his father too.

But we're still waiting for Brady to look in the mirror and see what everyone else has seen for years.

Holly looks like Nicole but Tate doesn't look like either parent.

I wasn't watching DOOL regularly in the late 80s, early 90s but Did Isabella and Justin ever interact or was Justin gone at that point? What was Justin and Bo's relationship as cousins?

Latest promo =

I just did a search with "DOOL" (like I usually do) & this thread didn't show up.

I wonder why?

Justin and Isabella over lapped by about 15-16 months. She started on the show in fall 1989. He left the show in early 1991.

That said, I don't recall Justin and Isabella having much interaction. But it was during the Cruise of Deception in summer 1990 that Isabella learned that Victor was her father, not Ernesto Toscano.

So, Isabella and Justin would have had a six month or so period in there when they known they were related.

R8, the DL search function stopped updating about three days ago.

r10

thanks... weird that Isabella and Justin didn't interact... I loved Isabella

Today's episode was pretty good but moved way too fast. It felt like they crammed an entire week into one episode.

R7: Justin arrived in Salem in February 1987, just a couple months before Bo & Hope left to sail around the world with baby Shawn D.

Bo & Justin did NOT like each other, from the jump. Bo thought Justin was an arrogant jerk & didn't trust him. (the first time Bo & Hope met Justin, they'd walked in on him screwing the Kiriakis' maid, Janet). Meanwhile, Justin was quite jealous of Bo as the "long-lost son" with whom Victor desperately wanted to have a relationship, and he didn't trust Bo, either. (to be fair, Bo *was* investigating/trying to get the goods on Victor). You can read more about that period at the link, below (it's too complicated to explain in a post!).

Their relationship wasn't nearly as icy when Bo returned in 1990 (but they weren't exactly buddies, either, IIRC).

I’m just watching for the hot psycho that Leo is fucking

I hope the person shot stays alive & the shooter ends up dead instead.

Andre's review -

r14

thanks

It's a bit shocking that the DL is rather quiet about this week's events.

Do we know if the shooting victim dies? Of course on this show, no one is truly “dead dead”.

The look on Vivian’s face at the end was iconic!

Is it just me, but do Kristen and Gwen have more chemistry together than any of their relationships with males?

Yes R22 I love it when they're together. The very definition of Partners In Crime soap opera style.

I guess Viv will say to Stephen that they're even now that she saved their lives.

Also Demetri better not be dead dead as they kill off too many characters (& most of them are under 55 years old).

The Demetri actor is one of their best finds of the past decade & should be a big part the future of this show.

Dimitri is in the spoliers for next week so I'm assuming he will survive

R14, wasn't Janet played by Reckell's first wife?

We're all waiting to see who's wearing the Elvis type jump suit.

R25: Yes, Janet was played by his wife, Dale Kristien.

NuSpoilers?

This week's Dish...

Emily O’Brien was listed today in the credits as both Gwen and Theresa.

Gee, like there are no other (unemployed) actresses out there who could have played NuTheresa?

I liked Gwen over the years but without Jack (& I guess Leo) maybe she should ride off into the sunset for awhile.

I'm curious on her NuTheresa take & I can't stand the original so I glad she isn't staying much longer.

I hope Megan is back here soon. She left in mid June which is almost 4 months ago. Can't wait to see her back in the thick of things with Demetri.

Isn't Dimitri leaving fairly soon?

What was the reason Jen Lilley was recast?

R34 She wanted to do other things both times she has left the show.

People magazine gets the scoop on Jen coming back and the recast.

I don't care if they have to recast, but it just seems stOOpid to do it with O'Brien.

An experienced daytime casting director like Marnie Saitta has scads of actresses on file, even ones whom she's already interviewed/auditioned who came in for something else and were really good, but just missed out on being cast. .. And casting for a limited 12-week run might actually be easier, not to mention more attractive to some who don't want to commit to a long-term gig on a soap.

Was Kate dragging one of her legs during some of the pub scenes?

Great episode (and performances) Friday. The ending was a hoot.

HOOT!

I have no issue with the casting switch to Emily O'Brien as Jeanne Theresa. Good luck to her. The show was clearly done with Gwen and wanted to keep EOB around, so it's a win win for everybody. What annoyed me this week were those strange Marlena and Kate scenes. They were pointless and so random.

It would have been far more entertaining if they'd put Rikaart in a blonde wig and had him play NuTheresa in drag.

Maybe he can play NuBelle.

R42 I'd love a NuBelle with him.

I don't know what the Shawn actor would say/do tho.

They could work in a NuTheresa / NuBelle catfight I'm sure.

Beemer would undoubtedly show Greg the same love he has for Chrissy LeBlanc.

promo

Tate is cute.

So much love!

I"M LOVIN NUTHERESA!

Andre's take for the week -

Although Rex and Cassie didn't turn out to be Marlena's biological children, there's no reason she couldn't have given birth to other children during those four years she was away (1987-1991).

[quote] Although Rex and Cassie didn't turn out to be Marlena's biological children, there's no reason she couldn't have given birth to other children during those four years she was away (1987-1991).

Gross. Dee was 15 at the time!

Marlena's not even old enough for her soapy "change of life" baby yet.

And while we have a long way to go, I think viewers would love to see her manage quintuplets.

r51

rumor was that Evan was going to be a Jarlena baby... there still could be one

Evan was a hot piece, and should return to Salem with his boyfriend, Derrick the bellhop, in tow.

I'm kind of looking forward to what Sheri Anderson has in store for the show. Hopefully she slows the pace down a bit and quiets down the camp. I guess we'll see. Also, I do hope that the 5 months off has given Ron a nice rest and time to reset and refresh.

Do we know if Carlivati is back? Deadline reported that union writers had returned to GH and B&B, but didn't mention Days. .. And of course, fi-core Josh Criffith does it all at Y&R .. LOOL!

r57

hmm... interesting

This week's spoilers start at 1:28 =

I hate JL and love EB, so I am thrilled with the Theresa switch.

Yours seems to be a popular opinion. I don't remember, what did JL do to piss everyone off?

Jesus freak. She signed with the anti-gay network of Candace Cameron Bure to make traditional TV movies that exclude gay people.

I love Ron’s writing!

Isn’t Sheri Anderson very religious?

I actually thought JL was very gay friendly though

[quote] I don't remember, what did JL do to piss everyone off?

She opened her mouth and began talking in that totally annoying voice or hers. Isn't that enough?

R65 A bigoted actress has to work Rose.

Pig nosed Tate doesn't look like either parent.

Working at the chowder shack is a boring set up.

He's a dead weight story right out of the gate.

Hoe Hum.

Watch your back, Chanel! Pothead Holly has the hots for your man!

Did someone say pot?

I could use a good blunt,

Holly will turn out to be a strung out porn whore just like her mother

I already dislike both Tate and Holly.

I like them both. The actor who plays Tate started off pretty well and the Holly actor wasn't bad either. Also, I'm really enjoying Emily O'Brien as Jeanne Theresa.

Theresa 👍

Holly 👎 👎

Tate 👎👎👎

Tate isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed.

He didn’t know who Holly was and then when he bumped into Nicole, he didn’t make the connection that she’s Holly’s mother.

The himbo genes run strong in the Black family.

Queen Brady's son should necessarily be called Princess Tate.

Tate = Piggly nose.

Holly = Wiggly eyebrows.

Together they're Piggly Wiggly.

Lovely future Salem couple.

Holly overdoes the facial expressions.

That's a fact!

Andre's weekly review -

Let's talk about the episode. Let's talk about the episode.

This week's spoilers start at 1:36 =

After Alex and Brady's scene on Thursday, I just realized that Alex should be older than Brady

Another helping of Dishin' Days...

I know money is tight, but I wish they'd hired an under five so that Marlena can have an assistant. People just bursting into her office is ridiculous.

Gosh Xander & Sarah are exhausting with the constant back & forth nrg this week. I'm getting tired of both & wish they'd run off into the sunset. Their characters have been ruined to a certain degree based on this year's writing.

Sarah instantly forgiving him the minute she knows Susan is alive seemed hokey as she was just as furious that he went behind her back & kidnapped Bonnie. I guess that detail is okay with her now that Susie Q is well.

They need to start showing nudity on the Cock.

[quote] They need to start showing male nudity on the Cock.

Fixed.

This episode today was boring but I did like seeing Gabi talking to Brady after so long.

This Rachel brat has too much air time. Her acting needs lots of work.

I'm already sick of hearing about Piggly's fire alarm bill.

Holly reminds me too much of Ali. Maybe her nickname should be Ali 2.0

Did the writer remember that Tate and Johnny are cousins?

* Second cousins . No big deal. They can have sex and get married.

r92

Ha! I was thinking they are 1st cousins because of Brady and Sami being siblings

Brady and Sami are step siblings. Johnny and Tate are biologically related through Sami and Theresa.

No blood relationship between Brady and Sami.

Marlena and Roman are Sami's parents.

John and Isabella are Brady's parents.

Tate and Johnny are related because their grandparents are brother and sister -- Roman and Kimberly.

Like said above, second cousins, since their mothers are first cousins.

Sami and Brady have always considered themselves siblings(just like Brady and Eric)... Brady and Sami used to be quite close

Sami chased EJ's 13 x 8.5 away

wonder why no promo for the week yet

[quote]wonder why no promo for the week yet

An extended promo will probably be unveiled later today at the Day of Days event.

r101

ahh

Any ideas for the Nov. thread title or main picture?

What have I been overlooking?

Wish they were live streaming.

R99 I miss original EJ. He was so goddamn beautiful. I hope he’s doing ok wherever he went.

Greg and Pete at today's Gay of Gays.

any news from Day of Days?

Someone’s baby is stolen, someone’s parentage is revealed, someone’s house goes up in flames and a past cast member returns as a different character.

Wally wore an old pair of blue jeans that he does yard work in and decided to display his tits.

r108

thanks... Sloan will take Nicoles baby, Xander is Vic's son and I read that a former dead horton will return as another horton

If The Horton House burns down, what scenery will Julie chew?

[quote]If The Horton House burns down, what scenery will Julie chew?

Look out Maggie, Julie’s coming for the Kiriakis mansion. Better hide those figurines.

This week's spoilers at 2:10 =

The promo is pretty awesome. I'm still amazed how much DAYS can do on their diminishing budget.

The fraus are going to have a field day over the Horton house fire. They're still waiting for Susan Flannery to return as Laura.

Does the fire mean Christmas Ball Hanging at the Whoreton House is cancelled?

Folks already know Chanel & Johnny are back together, Abe & Paulina were getting back together, that Xander is Vic's real son, that Nic's baby is going to be switched, etc. etc. There was very surprises in the whole thing. The ugly Nick actor was the biggest one & it's possible with the house fire that he is possessed or The Devil so that tired trope may be returning. I can't see Jada & the Nick actor together at all as a couple. total let down there.

I can't believe we lost Shawn, Belle, Vivian & Talia for the Nick actor's return along with Piggly Wiggly as some sort of soap opera dynamite to keep the show going. As time goes by it's getting harder & harder to keep watching it. Too many stories go side to side & nothing really goes forward anymore. Seeing the Nick actor back only makes the "nobody really dies" problem front & center.

I wish they brought Alex' twin brothers back along with Adrianne now that Victor's gone but it looks like Alex is the only new arrival we're going to get for awhile in that family dynamic. I didn't care for Abe's crazy cat lady story so they need some villains that can be a force to reckon with. I guess Leo is sticking around since he'll be in eh Nicole baby drama but I doubt that we'll be seeing Demetri as much as Leo.

Any other highlights for Day of Days?

So glad u asked R118 =

Marlena and Kate gossip at a different table in the Brady Pub. They are sometimes joined by Kayla (aka Dr. Stinkface)...

Paul & Godfrey =

Li & EJ =

I'm pleased that Sloan is going to steal Mancole's baby. Serves her right for what she did the Sami. I like the Xander twist and I'm fine with Emily as Theresa. It's been a seamless transition. There's gonna be some clucking about the fire at Horton House. I do hope that now that Albert is gone, Ron will have more freedom to turn shit around.

One thing I don't understand is all of these random Marlena and Kate scenes? Do they have guarantees to meet or something?

Tripp & Wendy =

The Day Players Band =

CHASS thrilled everyone by showing up wearing a *snug*pair of designer chinos! .. I would say the best-dressed among the attendees. .. Very GQ.

The dark young ones...

Capt. Eyepatch & the brat...

Rafe & Jada...

The Dead Abby support group...

Alex & his new bombshell...

I was half paying attention today, Sloan thinks she switched the DNA results but in actuality, she didn't correct?

Watching Peter and Greg in R120’s clip, it’s kind of obvious PP butches it up for his character.

r136

he is a better actor than I thought!

R136 If you caught any of Pete's wedding videos when he got married, that was pretty obvious .. LOOL!

btw - His husband was at the Day of Days event.

R135, I did wonder if Sloan took the wrong copy with her.

Pete comes from a musical theatre background. .. Around the time when he was on Y&R, he was also moonlighting some nights and appearing in the very campy "For the Record" series at a night spot in Los Feliz. Lots of spangles and glitter. .. Ignore the bad recording and sound of this video. He actually has a good singing voice.

Yes R139 I wondered also but you can see the 1 & 2 that EJ had written on the envelop he put in the safe before Nicole told him to stop writing on it earlier in the episode. Sloan thinks she got rid of the real copy but the one in the safe will come back to bite her it seems before the year is over.

Did anyone else notice Kayla's eyebrow's today?

Kayla and Roman need to die in the Horton House Fire so Steve and Kate can start fucking.

r143

Didn't they know each other from Steve's missing years?

"...start fucking again."

Better, R144 ?

The latest promo =

The latest from Epps =

I thought the "Rachel gets bruised by mommy" stunt was a great use of the Halloween season.

I had forgotten that Brady played a role in Stefan's amateur hour de-brainwashing attempt by Rolf.

So Gabi & Stefan screw over Brady just to get those shares.

Should've seen that coming.

Does anyone know when Gabi's last episode date is?

...

I’ll miss Gabi.

Who is that yummy shirtless guy tied to the bed in the collage at OP?

R152 It's Robert Scott Wilson (RSW) who currently plays Alex Kiriakis.

He started out as an underwear model, then became the first Price Is Right male model. He was on All My Children for awhile before being cast on LOOL!

Career goals....

[quote] I’ll miss Gabi.

Table for one?

Tyler Christopher has died. His problems while on Days led to Barash taking over the role.

I just read this tonight and was shocked, much like Matthew Perry’s death yesterday. Tyler seemed like a sweetheart who deserved so much better.

Many thanks to whoever put Johnny's fine ass in those grey sweatpants today.

I loved the Halloween episode!

Johnny and Tate are COUSINS, why did they act like they have never met today?

R159 I've never met most of my second cousins ... especially ones that went from 8-years to NuTeen overnight LOOL!

Anyway, Johnny only came back to Salem a couple years ago. I think MAGA Sami had him over in Europe (England/Italy?) before that. .. And didn't Theresa indicate Tate has been in boarding school? .. Makes sense they've never met before.

Here is the new Nov. DOOL thread with a Jensen A. drawing as the pic =

r160

Brady and Sami have always considered themselves siblings just like Brady and Eric and if Tate called Eric, Uncle Eric today then wouldn't he call Sami Aunt Sami? I do know they are related via Sami and Theresa like you said but it bothers me that someone can't figure out the familial relations

R162 It's not really which relationship you want to point to. .. If the two kids weren't in town together at the same time in any previous incarnation, then there's no reason to expect that they've ever met one another before.

The Kunitz twins last appeared as "Johnny" in November 2014, then the character disappeared.

Tate wasn't born until the following year in 2015; then the character disappeared in 2018.

The "Johnny" character now played by Carson Boatman, didn't return to Salem until 2021.

Now, we have NuTeen Tate back in town two years after that.

Because there was no prior overlap, it makes perfect sense that they've never actually met.

Why does Chad have more chemistry with any male he shares a scene with over any female he's been partnered with?
