bobcat1946 December 4, 2015 Share December 4, 2015 If only it was a good person who would tell trollop the truth about herself, but it is always someone like Nick or Ben who dare tell her the truth. 5 Link to comment
swtrgrl December 7, 2015 Share December 7, 2015 My current unpopular opinion is.....I like Ben (telling Abifail off) that is. While I do not condone murder, I love Ben telling her exactly what he (and a large portion of viewers) really think about her. She needs a good dose of reality and put in a position to where she can't wiggle or lie her way out of her wrongdoing. If it's unpopular then I"m on that train, too. I wish he'd stay and Abil would go..up in flames. 5 Link to comment

BlackMamba December 12, 2015 Share December 12, 2015 Is Lucas really Jennifer's half brother?? Wow. She's really been showing it lately, Hun? I had to bring this to the UO thread. This has always bothered me as a fan of Days that Lucas being a 'Horton' but he sure doesn't embody it much. I mean I get why James Reilly made him one because it was a play on history, but, Lucas and Jennifer hardly acknowledge they are brother and sister onscreen. I get in real life, even my own, sometimes half siblings might not be as close but when it comes to soaps I would at least like those scenes play out sometimes like we get with say Bo and his half siblings and Hope with Julie. Sometimes I question was it ever a smart thing to make Lucas a Horton especially since his sister and brother Mike hardly have him and vice versa in their orbits. 4 Link to comment

General Days December 12, 2015 Share December 12, 2015 I mean I get why James Reilly made him one because it was a play on history, but, Lucas and Jennifer hardly acknowledge they are brother and sister onscreen. I get in real life, even my own, sometimes half siblings might not be as close but when it comes to soaps I would at least like those scenes play out sometimes like we get with say Bo and his half siblings and Hope with Julie. The thing is, Bo grew up with the Bradys, thinking he was a Brady. Julie was in love with Hope's father, and Addie died when Hope was a baby. Meanwhile, Lucas and Jennifer (and Mike) were adults when they found out Bill was Lucas's father. Lucas didn't even come to Salem until he was a teen. For a while, they were writing Lucas more into Jennifer's family. He made no bones about telling her that Daniel was a terrible match for her. He's reached out to Abigail and JJ from time to time. Lucas seems to be one of those characters the writers forget, far too often. I have always felt that Will, Allie and Lucas were Teflon Hortons..It would have been better to keep Lucas a Roberts, keeping his father a secret and bring him onto the show at a later date to spice things up with Kate and Victor, when they were happily married...Plus, it would have given Lucas more romantic possibilities in the Horton family like Sarah Horton..

Since Kate was a hoe, it'd been ok if he hadn't known he had a father or made him a son to an organized crime family. That would had given him more spice as a character then being a Horton. I'll still never understand why this show ignores Sarah Horton (or a less degree Sandy). She is like the forgotten Horton. It would be perfect timing to bring her back on the canvas with Daniel bitting the dust soon. But instead we get the show eater Melanie returning. 1 Link to comment

Since this show is slowly but surely making the Bradys irrelevant (which still is ugh) they should bring on David Banning and Steven Olson. Then apart of me is like don't come back to Salem you might get under used or killed off 2 Link to comment
Happytobehere December 13, 2015 Share December 13, 2015 Exactly. Since this show is slowly but surely making the Bradys irrelevant (which still is ugh) Yes. I fell this way too. Within a matter of months, Kayla will most likely be the only Brady on canvas. 2 Link to comment

kitmerlot1213 December 14, 2015 Share December 14, 2015 Yes. I fell this way too. Within a matter of months, Kayla will most likely be the only Brady on canvas. That's not quite true because Theresa, Shawn, Ciara, Joey and Claire are all Bradys and Roman is still on, so they are definitely being represented. 1 Link to comment
Happytobehere December 15, 2015 Share December 15, 2015 That's not quite true because Theresa, Shawn, Ciara, Joey and Claire are all Bradys and Roman is still on, so they are definitely being represented. Well, Theresa didn't warrant an invite to Bo's funeral or Thanksgiving, and since returning to the show in July, I have seen her have two scenes with Eric (both were Brady driven), one scene with Caroline, and no scenes with Kayla or her cousins, I question whether the writers remember she is a Brady. Only time will tell how the remaining next generation of Brady's are treated. This is totally my bias, but I like to forget JT is playing Roman until the show forces me to remember. 2 Link to comment

DisneyBoy December 24, 2015 Share December 24, 2015 She isn't a bad actress, but her delivery feels very off compared to young Ciara and also out of synch with Hope. Don't buy the Mom/Daughter dynamic. 3 Link to comment
Kitty Redstone December 24, 2015 Share December 24, 2015 I don't either, at least not yet. But then Lauren Boles is a hard act to follow. Once VJ settles in she'll probably be fine.

BlackMamba January 5, 2016 Share January 5, 2016 (edited) I've to some degree liked the lowkey sexual tension between Hope and John especially since the PG storyline back in the late 90s-early 2000s. In this clip, DH does more than his usual "sniff a fart" acting but I swear the man went full on soft porn star with the facial expressions I found it to be hilarious.

swtrgrl January 5, 2016 Share January 5, 2016 They teased that tension around 2012, too. They went off somewhere..it was in the middle of Will's coming out story...Marlena was wanting John to call her and he didn't...when Will came over...so like 2011-2012 winter. Link to comment

DisneyBoy January 6, 2016 Share January 6, 2016 (edited) I don't mind them when they're being a happy couple...but that's so damn rare. 90% of the time, John is pretending to be "busy" with work, or being an ass to Marlena, or they're negotiating the terms on their tenth engagement and its just like...what's your freaking problem people?! Didn't John almost die in that coma? Didn't Marlena almost die in the Tunnels of Paris? Haven't you lost enough time already? Just be sweet to each other and laugh and be involved in your kids lives and BE HAPPY! When your partner of presumably 30+ years has to hand you a blank diary so the relationship can have a symbolic do-over...y'all got issues. They used to have scenes where they spoke like normal adults and planned together and consulted with each other. Now it's like they have separate kids, jobs, etc. Makes me annoyed. Why isn't Marlena part of you researching your past, John? Wouldn't she be the first person you would speak to about looking into your origins? They're nice at times, but I really don't think the writers give them material that makes their relationship enjoyable for us viewers. And John never apologized properly (or at all) for trying to shag Kristen "to save Brady". MmmmHmmmm. Riiiight. Sure thing, bub. Edited January 6, 2016 by DisneyBoy 4 Link to comment
islandgal140 January 12, 2016 Share January 12, 2016 Theo. I've side-eyed the show and have always, always felt some type of way about the writers making the show's only minority legacy character have autism. I know they (meaning Dena) set out to try to educate viewers about the disease, which they did a bad job of IMHO but it has the long term effect of not making him a viable character on the same level as the other legacy children. Just how convenient is that. Now he is likely less likely to have a love interest or story. YMMV. I like forever youthful dimpled Wally Kurth and I've liked Judy Evans since Guiding Light but I don't see the point of them on the show since Sonny left. Not an unpopular opinion but a slight annoyance. When they have patients in hospital scenes that are hooked up to the heart rate monitors, I hate when the heart rate beeps never change even when the patient is very emotional and upset. Like when Brady and Eric found out about Daniel's death, the beeps never sped up. They always remained the same. 3 Link to comment

Just how convenient is that. Now he is likely less likely to have a love interest or story. YMMV. The same questions were raised when Y&R d died to give Lily cancer and make her unable to have children. Because they don't shoot half a year in advance, they altered the story and produced the born by someone else twins using Lily's eggs story. Any long-time watcher of Days knows how tightly it embraces its racism, even when viewers of all races see chemistry between black and white characters (think Kayla and Marcus, Abe and Faye, Sami and Brandon, etc.). Frankly, given the historical dearth of black characters on the show, I'm surprised how many potential pairings there were. So I too am curious what they plan on doing with Theo in a genre where coupledom goes hand-in-hand with breathing. Maybe he will get the best friend role like his dad did without the token black couple who both spark with other more tag that Aba and Lexie had. 2 Link to comment
swtrgrl January 13, 2016 Share January 13, 2016 I'm not a fan of the teen scene (a sign I"m getting old? LOL)...but I wouldn't mind Theo with someone. Autism doesn't mean you can't fall in love. They could really explore how the disease effects relationships and friendships instead of this bullying bullshit. 7 Link to comment
Apprentice79 January 13, 2016 Share January 13, 2016 (edited) Happytobehere, you are making me sad, when you bring up Marcus and Kayla. Richard Briggs was a great actor. May he rest in peace! I wanted them to fall in love with each other, while grieving for Steve. Can you imagine the angst that could have caused when Steve came back from the dead. Instead the show did that awful pairing, when they put Kayla with Shane...what were they thinking with that insane pairing. Kayla and Shane would never have done that to Kim. Shane was so matter of fact about hurting Kim. It pissed me off..I remember that there was a backlash and the idiots in charge mercifully put an end to that pairing..The show was trying to sell that pairing like it was the best thing, since sliced bread..
