This is a nice way to keep Stefano around and not having to worry about JM's stamina. Plus, it sorta ends the laughable Stefano As Good Guy metamorphosis we saw over the past dozen years. Amen! to your post..I blame James E. Reilly for that..The Dimera family with the exception of Benjy, his son Steven and Tony should never have become a prominent family in Salem.. Andre, Stefano, Peter and Kristen should all be dead permanently..How about the show creating new villains to torment the legacy children of the show in their own stories with the veterans playing a supporting role due to their own experiences...Is that too hard for you to do, Ken Corday?

DisneyBoy June 27, 2016 Share June 27, 2016 In her AfterBuzz interview, Deidre is asked whether she's begun shooting the Jarlena wedding scenes and says "not at this point". Truth? I'm leaning towards yes, but I suppose they could have asked her to keep it under wraps? Weren't we told there would be two weddings in the next six months? If it ain't involving Jarlena, that leaves Thrady and Lucas. Also, she was blunt about the Yo Ling storyline and how she felt it was out of left field and " not an audience pleaser". Oooohhhh. 1 Link to comment
Lastwaltz July 1, 2016 Share July 1, 2016 Ugh, I just hate Ciara being in Chad's orbit and, what's more, stirring things up (even if unwittingly). And what's this about Andre and a downed private plane -- haven't we had that plot a number of times? Wasn't Andre himself thought dead after a crash? UGH!! 3 Link to comment

BlackMamba July 4, 2016 Share July 4, 2016 (edited) On 7/1/2016 at 8:55 PM, WendyCR72 said: Why is Dena Higley still employed?! Rephase the question: How does Dena Higley continue to get her job back? ? Yet at the same time as much as I can blame her for a lot things Josh Griffith has made this show so dark since Higley went on leave. Higley is a hot mess but 80% of what we've been seeing is him with the other 15% being Higley and 5% being Milstein. I remember his destruction of Y&R. He makes a show really dark but when he doesn't have enough follow through he bores you to tears. I tuned out of that til he finally got canned there. The only reason why I haven't with Days because it's always been my favorite soap of all soaps. Josh Griffith just simply doesn't get "soap opera". He thinks soaps should be like "American Crime" or "Without a Trace". Those are good shows, But this is a genre for women and gay men in the DAYTIME. They want to see romance, bit drama,. family interactions that people care to see, joyous moments, cliffhangers, humor aka "Desperate Housewives" , "Devious Maids" and "UnReal" for daytime. Not to mention keeping the characters in character. And this is my problem with Higley here. Higley likes to write for Nicole and Hope it's evident in all her writing regimes. Yet she never keeps them in character. Hope isn't suppose to be Nicole. And Nicole isn't supoose to be Hope. It's like she has done the switch-a-woo with those two characters in terms of personality makeup. Nicole is suppose to be conniving, scheming catty woman but has some soul at times. Hope is suppose a good girl, a family person and inquisitive, but can be gullible at matter of the heart but never fucking stupid EVER. And that's where I'm pissed at Beth Milstein with the Hope end. She's been on Days on and off since the 80s. She know how the Hope character should and should not be written. Beth should had schooled Dena and Josh how to write for iconic, legacy characters on this show. Which still blows me because there is well over 50yrs of history on this show and the writers are damn lazy to look it up for storylines and characters are concerned. Don't even get me going on the repeat stories that's been happening the last few months: The babysitting storyline between Ciara/Chad that has been done before with Hope and Abby but given to a current actress who is fucking wooden and can't handle the simplest of material, who had a rape story but couldn't deliver. The Deimos fakeout death aka Nick 2.0. Everything that's been done the last 6 months or so is basically where TomSell left it when they got fired. The show needs fresh ideas and start thinking more long term. Edited July 4, 2016 by BlackMamba 3 Link to comment

Rick Kitchen July 4, 2016 Share July 4, 2016 1 minute ago, Sonoma said: Since Nadia Bjorlin was still filming when she was nine months pregnant, I have a terrible feeling they're going to play out a Chloe/Deimos/Nicole triangle and even worse feeling they're going to throw in a Who's the Daddy? storyline with Philip AGAIN. I truly hope I'm wrong because JPL's Phillip is cringy (Is that even a word? It should be and is now) to watch and I don't want to see them torpedo Chloe and Nicole's relationship over Deimos. Well, there are rumors (unconfirmed at this point) that JPL is out ... 2 Link to comment
cmahorror July 4, 2016 Share July 4, 2016 (edited) 21 hours ago, LeftPhalange said: Jen is going after custody of plot point baby on what grounds? Let me get this straight - the woman who was so drugged out of her mind a few months ago that she didn't notice her daughter was going crazy is now trying to take away custody from the man who has taken care of his wife and child nonstop for the past six months? The woman who went out on a drinking and drugs binge with the man who hit her car and killed her ex-boyfriend the night before he went to prison? The woman who has only been in AA for maybe a month? Please tell me that Chad will go full DiMera on her in court and bring all of this up. Sorry writers but Chad is not the bad guy in this story - he is the freaking hero. Jennifer and JJ are wrong and I hope that is what we see on screen. Edited July 5, 2016 by cmahorror 7 Link to comment

BlackMamba July 9, 2016 Share July 9, 2016 I dont care what anyone says, I like we're getting an explosion. This show has been a snoozefest, dull and dry as hell. My thing is don't give us an explosion and don't shit with it. I pray the set up for it is good going into it. If Dena Higley is good for one thing as a writer, she can write an event plot just she has no follow through thereafter, which is her problem. I do like Hope will finally get out her braindead state. And Shawn will be in the story since this is his mother and he works there at the Salem PD. It's we see Brandon Beemer do something fun and finally acting heroic as Shawn. 1 Link to comment

kitmerlot1213 July 9, 2016 Share July 9, 2016 I like the idea of Theresa and Brady working together to confront Summer--at least if Theresa's there. Summer won't try and act like she's 22 with the whole doe eye routine. 3 Link to comment
Lastwaltz July 9, 2016 Share July 9, 2016 Ha, I should know to always check the spoiler thread first before going over to Current Days : ) So Summer did take the tot! I'm glad this won't be drawn out -- Sidney's kidnapping lasted for months and months -- and I'm sure Theresa/Jen L will knock this out of the park. Good times ahead! Abigail dead via plane crash? I hate to see BF torn to pieces. How long till the new girl comes? Just long enough for Chad to get some traction with someone/something else, most likely. Please let this be the end of Ciara/Chad, show, I beg of you. 2 Link to comment

DisneyBoy July 16, 2016 Share July 16, 2016 ED made Kristen fascinating because she started off as a grey/good character, then became grey/evil...there were always two things going on. Just flat-out evil evil evil is a demotion. Aside from her reluctance and grief over the notion of murdering Brady, Kristen was one-dimensional last time. Her castle stint was sad because there was little for ED to put a spin on. If Kristen returns, and I hope she does, I hope it's in a capacity that allows ED to bring dimensions back to the character. Buying Tate from Summer will only mean what...Brady is the one who knocks her out a window now? I don't want one of the best characters this show ever invented to be a mere punching bag, to make the "heroes" look tough.
