I like James Read a lot but I have a hard time getting over the step daughter rape and I loathe that the show seems to be hoping I forgot the part where Jordan was all sorts of traumatized by it.  I hated Jordan but raping your stepdaughter?   That is not okay.  And also making me watch Kate in a relationship with a man with that history? It is too shades of Billie and Austin and their past.  I just don't see Kate with a guy who preyed upon his stepdaughter.    Would love to believe Kate really doesn't know what went on there and her finding out and reaction would be a big part of the end of Clyde.

That said?   I would totally get behind Clyde's more erudite and less heavily accented twin brother took over his territory and his creepy threats of creepiness.

There is a part of me that desperately wants this to be the most literal spoiler ever... like Eve's talking to herself (you know, like Nicole always does) and just gets more and more upset at the recent situation that she starts giving her appliances shit.

.

 

And I'm now giggling like a kindergartener imaging the silly.  And immediately flashed to the Easy Bake Avery character on Y&R who is probably doing this exact thing right now.

Eve would be giving her wine glasses a REAL smackdown!

If James Read were leaving or had already left we probably would have heard about it by now, so I'm assuming Clyde is still on the show.

 

 

Well ewww.

 

I can't believe Mr. Buff Aussie will have come and gone and Clyde will STILL be around. The actor is playing the part fine, but there's a limit to how long we can bare to see him on screen.

Let's hope the new writers spend whatever time Clyde has left on the show completely and utterly destroying him or something.

This is one of the things I'm really having a problem with on the show. I mean, yes, there are more things; but this particularly bothers me. If they wanted Clyde/James Reed to stay around, the writers should have made his "secret" something that wasn't raping your minor step-daughter. Am I supposed to want to see him in a romantic storyline with Kate? Am I supposed to just forget it because his traumatized victim left town? Not good enough, show.

Do you mean Xander?  The actor is Scottish.  There is, however, an Australian who's coming to be a mentee of Daniel's.  I'm sure Abby will be jumping into his bed soon.

My husband doesn't watch days much, on days we both work he will watch with me when we both get home at night. I was telling him about you guys here calling abigail side piece, (he is old and doesn't understand lingo) he asked me about everyone else why aren't they called side piece. I explained that she had slept with this married man and that engaged man blah blah. He then reminds me in his words " that short hair blonde girl that does news or something has slept with 5 guys that I know of, that drug head (thresa lol) has slept with 3, so on and so on" it defiantly reminded me that everyone on this show is getting their girl scouts slut badge.

Unfortunately there are people like this on real life. Clyde is bringing a darker side of rl to the show and I kinda think it's good, it also kinda falls into a category of how will people treat him when they find out?? It's just a different dynamic that I'm looking forward to

I feel Clyde's back-story doesn't fit on a show like Days in the long-term (if people are actually going to be his friend or if Ben is going to look up to him). His back-story is too....realistic, I think.   

 

Stephano is an awful father but his deeds are so weird (i.e fake-killing people and bringing them back to life) it's easier to disconnect from him than from someone like Clyde.

I actually prefer Cyde as a villain to Stefano. Clyde is dangerous. Crossing him can result in people being hurt.  Stefano has been a cartoon character for decades.  I have no idea why anyone is even afraid of him.

One of the many differences between Sami, Nicole, and Slappy, aside from the fact that Sami and Nicole were entertaining to watch and can fight their own battles, is they wanted to be the ONE.  The wife, the person who was loved, part of a real relationship.  Jar Jar was begging to be a piece on the side who flat out said she did not care if Sami or Sami's children were hurt.

 

I'm fine with Clyde being a villain who causes problems, and then gets taken out.  The problem with Days is they have whitewashed so many other rapists, I have a feeling they may try to do the same thing with Clyde.

Clyde is a different type of rapist: he is a pedophile and he has threatened children's lives...He was very creepy with Ari and now Chase. He needs to die...The show as usual ruined his character, he could have been a great villain for the show...For some reason the show has to make Stefano the villain for all the storylines..They made Stefano responsible for Hope and Steve's presumed death, when it was Ernesto and Lawrence respectively. Stefano has become a cartoon. We need new exciting and dynamic villains to come in to propel the show into the future...We need new heroes, Heroines, anti-heroines and anti-heroes from our legacy children..Now is the time to bring Andrew, Stefanie, Chelsea, the Kiriakis brothers, Philip, Nicholas Alamain and integrate them into the show...They need to get rid of superfluous characters like Daniel Jonas....We also need new families to  slowly come into the show because Salem has become too incestuous...

Brendan Coughlin who plays T is no longer on the show. He tweeted that he is done with the show and his last episode has already been shown. I liked T, they should have kept him and I liked his friendship with Wilson....He grew up with Will and he was such a Wilson shipper...lol..I would have liked to see him interact with Sparkle....Will is going to need a friend when Sonny leaves him and Ari...

I am hoping that is what will happen....Sonny is needed on canvas.....I can see Higley bringing Sonny back, she never really wrote for Sonny, even though she was the one that brought him back in the first place. She has put Wally and Judy on contract. Who knows what the future holds...

That's a damn shame. Did they fire him? What the fuck is going on with the casting for the younger group on this show?

Bed? I think you might have meant to say jumping into the nearest supply closet with.

I don't have a problem with the so-called realness of Clyde's "Uncle Bad Touch" backstory, I have a problem with the proliferation of rape on Days. They just go to the 'rape well' every time they want to get shock and awe value and create an auto-villain and auto-heroine. The audience doesn't have to think about it - this guy is bad and this woman or in limited instances this man is the victim. The main problem with this is that it is always written and handled terribly. There is no social commentary, no value, and worst of the worst no actual repercussions for the offender. The victim is never avenged nor sees justice. They are freaking forced to interact with their rapists. 

 

I get more disgusted because part of me is thinking Days writers might be trying to capitalize on all the current reporting of rape in the media. As a culture, we are confronting the long-buried problem of rape in new ways. The idea of “rape culture” has arisen in the past few years as a major topic of conversation and debate. The Steubenville rape case, sexual assaults on campuses and assaults within the military have brought the long-time problem of rape to the forefront in the media. Days BS stories detract from all that is happening. There never seems to be any healing for the victim, they never seem empowered. There is never any growth. Don't even get me started on Ejami. Hadn't been a fan of EJ in a while but I was ready for him to die in a fire when he laughed at Eric's rape.

Painfully. I'm here for this. Still pissed beyond measure (and not watching) since they put my bae with a pedophile given everything Kate has been through with physical and sexual abuse with Curtis and Billie. I'm not about watching a soap opera where child molesters get love scenes, who the fuck do they think is watching this? Freddy Krueger?

Nick was raped in prison by the sexy Derek Magyar. It wasn't shown. Also, Michael was raped in prison on General Hospital, but they cut away from it. Those are the only two examples I can think of.

 

Right.  I had forgotten those two incidents. But Michael never had to deal with the consequences, it's like it didn't happen, and Nick's was thrown in after the fact.

So it's not just me?  I thought he was Aussie too.

 

Nope! Yooou are noooot alooooone!

 

They just go to the 'rape well' every time they want to get shock and awe value.

 

Oh I'm going to quote you forever on the "Rape Well".

 

Eve pumps Marlena for info on Laura.

 

Laura??  Laura "You used a LASER on my memory, Kristin!" Laura?? Mother to Mike, former mental patient and sleeper-with of Jack?

I don't know that Nick's prison rape was an afterthought at all.  It was used to explain his homophobia toward Wilson as well as his obsession with "saving" Gabi.  Because wimmin get abused and saved alternately on this show. 

 

Forgive me if I forget the exact details but wasn't the prison abuse the whole reason they got kidnapped on the island and Will saved Nick and Sonny delivered Ari?  We just didn't know about it up front.

Yes ma'am you are correct

Exactly Tigerlynx, I wish that Abigail would get a rest, there are other characters that need focus like Stefanie and Chloe who were damaged by previous writing regimes. 


Who is slappy?

Abigail a.k.a sidepiece, JarJar, Abifail..She has a propensity of slapping other people on the show: Chloe, Eve and Sami...Sami should have kicked her ass for having the temerity to do that to her after fucking her husband...

I also think that it is the Abigail storyline that had the actors playing Sami and EJ running off the show...It really damaged their characters...EJ would never cheat on Sami with somebody as insignificant as Abigail...Not to be crude, I don't think EJ would let JarJar give him a hand job..Sami looked like a fool, that is  something that she never was.. It was another cheating storyline that I hated by this regime...

I hate to break it to you guys but rumors are swirling that Jar Jar might be pregnant with a Dimera Spawn and if that it is indeed true..I will be so mad because Nicole is so deserving of a baby...Women like Theresa are saddled with a baby and that limits her potential as a character....

They have been dying for a while to give a common side piece a dimera spawn.

What else is the side piece going to get away with.  Cheating on Ben is just the lastest of her evil deeds.
