Days Of Our Lives 2021

RSW is SO gorgeous!

DOOL!

Good Lord ....... Linda Dano as NuVivian ?

Next, she'll be bringing along a little man person as her secret love child with Wallingford.

[quote] DOOL!

DOOL?

⏳ DOOL !

Ah, DOOL.

DOOL has the hottest male cast: Telfer & RSW especially

A Ben / Shawn bromance - which leads to much more physical relationship? I would definitely watch that.

I agree Telfer and RSW; both seem gay friendly especially Telfer

So Dorian Lord didn't work out as NuVivian, so now they're bringing in Felicia Gallant as NuNuVivian?

I think it's going to become a thing. When Louise isn't available, they are just going to hire whatever former soap Diva who is available. Next up Victoria Wyndham as Vivian, followed by Kim Zimmer, Erika Slezak, and Susan Lucci.

Linda Dano?

NoNoVivian !

Louise Sorrel was made to play crazy Vivian.

Dano was awful yesterday. Nothing like the queen Sorel at all. Maybe she’ll get better.

Dano as Felicia Gallant on AW was flamboyant, outspoken, and at times, way over the top. I expected more as Vivian, but she's really flat and lackluster.

Linda Dano says her ‘eshes’ weird. She can’t even pronounce a ‘S’ anysmore. Embarrassing performance by Dano.

It was nice seeing Linda back on Daytime, she’s no Louise Sorel but she got better. She was very nervous according to interviews she did. Apparently, Louise has decided to remain retired unless she is 100% available and up to it. It’s only a two week stint anyway

R16 Everytime Louise Sorel says she is retired and never coming back to Days, she’s back on Days a few months later. I love her and really do hope she comes back.

[quote]Next up Victoria Wyndham as Vivian, followed by Kim Zimmer, Erika Slezak, and Susan Lucci

Insulting. Especially when one of those actresses is clearly youthful enough to be a recast for Belle.

Dano should have stayed retired. When are her 2 weeks up?

When Erika Slezak was asked to film a two week guest spot on the show she was offered little in the way of reimbursement, and was told she would have to pay her own airfare and expenses. She told them in a very ladylike way that they could stick it.

Slee should have asked Ellen Holly to drive her across the country for the Days gig. They could catch up on old times.

Bryan Dattilo became a grandfather over Christmas. That surprised me.

Has anyone seen William? I'm healed, feeling MUCH better but have a special treatment that requires his attention. Ta!

Has Chambo dumbo tweeted from his office job yet? Or is he too dumb to get an office job and he’s spending his time in his parents basement playing video games.

I can't believe they killed the character of Laura.

Then again, that character hasn't been important to the show for ages.

Laura isn’t dead dead though. She’s just dead, for now.

Laura is dead-dead

What's sexy GILF Marlena up to?

R48, what all the other young millennial characters on the show are doing.

Ben makes me moist - down there.

"If someone dies on DAYS, they'll be staying that way!" - Ken Corday

When is Days going to get renewed or cancelled?

[quote] what all the other young millennial characters on the show are doing.

Are there any NuTeens?

R20 Erika S. is worth several million from all of her years acting. Plus doesn't her hubby have some $ as well?

The tightwad republican could've paid her own way as a gesture of good will for her fans in thee hard times.

I recall her recent 2020 Zoom like interview on YT where she mentions the stock market falling several times.

Thousands of your fellow citizens are dead & plenty more around the globe but like a typical repub all she shows interest in is her own problems & $$$.

I hate SH's Kristen but I do like her Susan

Isn’t Dano a Trumper?

Who is top billed on this program?

R36 Yes Dano she has a repub history.

It's interesting that TPTB gave her NuVivian a line that bashed Trump for walking out in front of the UK queen.

I'm shocked that Dano said it but perhaps she always does what's on the page or is desperate for some $ in these times.

Dano has been an awful recast. And that face of hers! Yikes.

The great all-knowing “Mary Sue” Dr. Marlena Evans didn’t know that eggs have an expiration date? Who writes this dreck these days, lol!

Oh god - Sarah’s new haircut! :(

This storyline with Christian/Evan/whatever Orpheus' son's name is is so stupid. Having him try to act like a villain is ridiculous.

[quote] Oh god - Sarah’s new haircut! :(

She looks so fug!

Has Chambo landed his new job yet?

Why is Cady McLain leaving the show already? She’s so much better than MAGAlissa Reeves.

Cady has mental issues.

Cady was only a temporary replacement because Missy didn't want to travel to LA during Covid. The break for Missy also will probably lessen any on set tensions caused by that social media mess.

Cody gained many new fans AS DID Jennifer.

Lots of gays who despised Jen-Fil-A came to appreciate and like Jennifer once Reeves was gone.

Has there been an announcement that that hateful bitch is coming back?

Godfrey said she refuses to work with Reeves.

Can’t stand koo koo Cady! Missy can’t come back fast enough!

Well Godfrey got the haircut she deserves then!

I hear that her baby daddy is eating out Godfrey’s snatch again.

r51

really... I always thought Robert Adamson was cookie sniffer

That snatch poster is just disgusting. What a fucking deranged piece of shit he is.

Adamson loved eating Godfrey’s snatch. He’s a pussy hound.

Can we please get Stacy Haiduk fired already. Good god she’s awful. They need to stop with Vivian until Louise is available. Neither of these castings work. Ugly people with limited range.

[quote] Cady was only a temporary replacement because Missy didn't want to travel to LA during Covid. The break for Missy also will probably lessen any on set tensions caused by that social media mess.

Bullshit. Missy didn’t return because of her social media. She will be ostracized if she dates return and she knows it. There are about two people left that actually like her. The rest of the cast will make her life a living hell.

Someone said Missy’s husband made her stand up in church and admit to cheating on him. Weirdos.

Sure, Missy cheated. Who wouldn’t have cheated with Peter Blake! Is she the only cast member who has cheated? Of course not. Good for her for getting that cock. Her husband is the real piece of work. He’s gotten blowjobs while out on tour with his ‘band’. He’s an asshole.

[quote]Bullshit. Missy didn’t return because of her social media. She will be ostracized if she dates return and she knows it. There are about two people left that actually like her. The rest of the cast will make her life a living hell.

That was the excuse that was given. It seemed like a reasonable one to me. Maybe it is bullshit, but I'm not sure it matters either way. As for being ostracized on set, that might be a little much. Adults somehow manage to work with people they don't necessarily like or agree with all the time and this is not Missy's first rodeo with her conservative opinions causing controversy.

[quote]Someone said Missy’s husband made her stand up in church and admit to cheating on him.

That happens a lot in those fundamentalist churches

Missy has been at Days for decades. She’ll be fine when she returns.

Do you think Missy swallowed or spit Jason Brook’s load? She seems like a swallower.

She totally swallowed. I would have, too.

R58, from men or women?

Melissa Reeves’ son and daughter each had their first child recently. I’m certain she took time off for that reason. Give the woman a break.

Fuck off, Trumper at R64.

Missy is a nice person.

R65, I’m not a Trumper. I’m not even American. You sound nasty.

Jack Nasty.

Great, if Missy can't come back, then Corday is free to bring back Jason Brooks to play Peter Blake. And get that methy Uber driver Stacey Haiduk off the screen and bring back Eileen Davidson. With Tony and Anna and Chad, the Demira Empire can rise from the ashes.

Loved the the not-so-subtle AMC reference when Julie fixed Jennifer peanut butter and banana pancakes. Jennifer declined saying she had a bad experience with them one time.

Stacy Haiduk and Linda Dano playing Kristen and Vivian is like watching a community theater production of “Our Town.” If the OG actors aren’t available don’t recast them, just bring new characters in the show or open up your wallets for the real deals.

I LOVE Kirk B at the SON board for calling out Soapsuds, the PERV who jerks off to Chambo. Soapsuds is a FAT frau living with his parents who criticizes everyone. Ron G (Soapsuds) is a FAT old pervert living with his parents at 50+ years old. Fat fucking perv Soapsuds. And now back to Days.....

Holy Fuck! RSW is so hot! 🔥

He looks like one of those guys who really knows how to fuck.

[quote] the PERV who jerks off to Chambo

Has he admitted this or are you just surmising?

Holy fuck! RSW is indeed HOT! Fanning myself.

FOWBF seemed like he was back on the cocaine yesterday...

Slee should of took the Days gig. Doesn't she need the dough to support her looser kids? I think the son lives in her basement.

[quote]to support her looser kids?

Help me out....were some of her kids sluttier than the others?

[quote] should of took

RSW can fuck me anytime, anywhere. So what is Chandler up to these days???? lol

Chandler spends his days fucking the wifey. 4-5x per day, I'm hearing. He's dumb as dirt and he can't even get her pregnant with all that daily pounding.

Chambo has the low sperms count.

Chambo's as dumb as a box of hair.

Will Chandler come out years later when his midlife crisis happens?

Always love seeing James Read/Clyde. Nice that the show redeemed him slightly by having him be so protective and helping Ollie (I get a kick whenever he refers to Ben by his given first name) and Ciara. Wouldn't mind seeing him be a full-time resident of Salem, after all other criminals including rapists and murderers redeemed enough to rejoin society.

Sonny was the love of Christian Maddox’s life.

Sad.

I wanna see RSW’s jerk off vid.

[quote] I wanna see RSW’s jerk off vid.

Is there one?

DOOL!!!

Does the show have any gays anymore?

[quote] DOOL!!!

DOOL?

GOOL

I hope Chandler's wife appreciates his fine set of tits.

I love whenever Ben interacts with Clyde because we’re reminded that he’s supposed to be from the Ozarks, despite RSW’s chowder-thick (and weirdly hot) Massachusetts accent.

Damn.

^His face is ok, and his body is nothing special. Too skinny. He would need to put on some quality muscle to get my attention. A cycle of steroids wouldn't be a bad idea.

RSW is a million times hotter than Dumb, jobless Chambo.

R8 some probable DLer added a Ben/Shawn story to the Days multi story archive over at Nifty.

RSW is currently hanging out on the 🎿 slopes with a different DOOL male cast member this time.

RSW can eat crackers in my bed anytime!

Smokin’ hot!

Is Beemer a gay?

Duh.

I'm loving Aunt Paulina 😄😄😄

Jackee is just kinda alright. Nothing special. A couple funny one liners but that’s about it. She’s Sandra Clark trying to play Paulina. Limited acting range.

I was flippin channels this week and got Lamon Archey looking likes THIS...then I pressed mute and stared.

I don’t know if Brandon Beemer is gay or not, but I follow him on Twitter. He is always “liking” pictures of trashy, scantily clad women.

When are Ali's new scenes going to air?

The evergreen Dr. Marlena was pushing 40 when she gave birth to Sami, wasn't she?

Dee looks fabulous for 90.

Ron will be recycling not so distant plots, this time with Kristen and Sarah. Expect some angry fans.

Sami is starting to look older than Marlena.

Sami hasn't resorted to major plastic surgery like Marlena, you mean r113

Wasn't there once some picture of NuChad(Billy Flynn) naked with another man standing next him?

Gay Kyler wanted to suck RSW’s dick badly, so they recast.

Fine as fuck r102

ok my dvr didn't record Friday and I hate watching it in demand when I can't fast forward BUT if Marlena fuckin Evans went to visit the guy who killed her grandson over her own daughter in jail... seriously WHAT THE FUCK

R115, what? More info pleeeeeze!

The show is called Days of Our Lives, not Gays of Our Lives! None of the actors on the show are gay. Take your fantasies elsewhere.

I guess Linsey Godfrey is out... I liked her and Maggie should have ALL her children in town

Maggie’s on hiatus. Is the show cancelled? No word on a renewal has come yet.

I hate Maggie.

Fuck off, Defacto at R117.

turns out the actress who plays sarah is gone soon! not sure if the character is as well or just a different actress...

no reason given for the actress departure as well....

Does that mean Reeves is back?

Ugh.

Days household ratings are disastrous, but their demos are competitive with the other three shows, and that's all the suits care about.

Who didn't see THAT coming when Ciara work up in her hospital bed and saw Ben? We suffered through the Romeo & Juliet and psychic connection crap only to have Ron stretch of Ben and Ciara's reunion even further.

r128

but they have a psychic connection... barf

Where were Kate and Jake today? Did Chad get a new room in his house?

R130, weird, kind of? I found this on Twitter, but it doesn’t seem like a redecorated version of the old room. It doesn’t match. But then, nothing really makes sense anymore.

Vee, from SON, who is in the biz, gets very snippy if someone knows more than he knows. #Days

Isn’t that the EJami grief sex sofa?

Hey Vee from Soap Opera Network: FUCK OFF! Asshole

I think it's a room that we have never seen before in the Dimera mansion. For whatever reason they moved Steffy's portrait out of the study to this room.

Is Ron Carlivati a gay?

Get rid of the chick playing Kristen already.

Who can forget how great the original Kristen/Susan storyline was? Especially that scene where Susan was exposed as a fraud on her wedding day by the constantly hyperventilating Laura Horton.

The Sarah-masked Kristen makes it look like she's screwing Rex, and Xander sees it, freaks out... then what? Sarah is gone Monday.

Unless Kristen kills Sarah, I don't get why she would be leaving Salem. Once she's free, she tells Xander the truth, and they live happily ever after.

RonC seems to love the Kristen character. Is he going to actually make her a murderess?

Godfrey has the mental issues.

Where can I get masks that turn my husband into Ben or Zander? I’m not paying extra for the voice changing function!

Why Breckin Meyer break up with Linsey?

He's gay.

Is she leaving because she's crazy? Is she leaving on her own or was she fired? Storyline reasons? Recast?

Where's our insider in Salem?

She has to deal with mental health issues.

[quote]Unless Kristen kills Sarah, I don't get why she would be leaving Salem.

Kristen talked about stranding Sarah on an island -- presumably the one where Tony was held for a couple of decades.

Breckin Meyer said that her pussy stinks. Adamson said the same thing.

She's leaving because she's crazy?

Ugh, that means that homophobic bitch Reeves is definitely coming back.

It’s sad about LG. I hate Sarah but I feel bad for the actress.

Has she gone on the record about mental problems?

Vee from SON made the diagnosis. He’s in the biz, you know.

My husband and I have noticed two cheap things about DOOL in recent months:

1. All the "events" (surprise parties, weddings, celebrations, etc.) have about 8 people in attendance...maybe 10.

2. There are no more kids on the show (we're not complaining, just observing). The babies are rubber, with recorded cries and gurgles. The toddlers are always being babysat by someone, with their grandparents, with their other parent, at camp, etc. Because of child labor regulations, they have to cast twins to play a single child, which apparently gets expensive.

The gushing comments by fans are hysterical.

[quote]The gushing comments by fans are hysterical.

Well, in all honesty, the man is a fucking smoke show. And the camera loves him.

RSW is fucking HOT!

One of the other things I like about RSW, other than his looks, is that he seems well adjusted and happy to be working. He never comes across in interviews as someone who thinks he's above soap work. Which is refreshing.

I only posted it because of the ravings of his acting. He gorgeous and his acting is fine, but the comments are OTT.

However, RSW responds to almost everyone! He gives most of them a little "Thanks" icon in response.

He really knows how to cultivate a fanbase.

I checked out the SON thread, and it's all just speculation about LG leaving due to mental health.

However, someone said she did come out as bipolar recently, and that her relationship with BM was over (and no longer following each other).

Many posters noticed her manic portrayal of Sarah recently, as well as her constantly changing hairstyles.

I thought about two months ago that she was batshit crazy in several scenes. She wasn't even acting the emotions in the script but playing the words like a horny schoolgirl. It was creepy to watch.

R156 I hope you recognized the assholes at SON. And the perverts. SON is very strange.

What "perverts?" I noticed a few posters referring to themselves as gay and mentioning Xander or Ben were hot. Normal gay male behavior.

BTW, Chandler and FCF were not minors while on the show, so no "perversion" there, either, just to counter your usual deranged masturbatory fantasies.

Would you be shocked that a Frau Central nut job named "JackandJenFan" hates Leo, Will, and Sonny and is glad they are gone? She seems much worse than the gay men on SON.

R106 = Marla Gibbs, failed Emmy winner.

R158 Look up the definition of perversion. The SON freaks define it. When you are old enough to be Chandler’s father or grandfather, and have sexual fantasies that you post online, you are a pervert. That is disgusting.

Susan Lucci would make a great nunuSister Marie. Would be a kick seeing Dee and Sue vie for airtime or the final line in a shared scene.

Can you imagine trying to keep a straight face the day Lindsay came in with her new haircut?

NuTheo is flaming.

I miss old Theo - the very gay Kyler.

I have NOT interest in that show.

If it was called Days Of Our HOMOSEXUAL Lives- that might pique my interest.

Albert wouldn't like that r165(Allegedly).

RSW is currently in Mexico.

Albert is a flaming homo.

It's been so long since Julie shrieked, "What will I tell AUNT MARIE?!!!!!"

Doesn't RonC know that a Julie hallmark?

OH! Last night, my Mom told me she figured out Lipgloss & Prada Queen Charlie's murder!

The clues were there this week and I didn't even pick them up, but she did. And it's obvious after she told me.

And, no, it wasn't one of those multiple murderers kind of thing, aside from Sami shooting his already dead, toned and hairless body.

Any guesses before I reveal it?

Is it Gabby with a "Y"? Because I think she's back.

She may be back, but she's not the killer.

BTW, she was definitely lying to Chad yesterday about wanting to get help. Next week, she's back to Gabi scheming against Gwen.

LOVED Gwen and Jack's hug yesterday! Well done by EOB and MA!

Is it Gwen? Did he try to rape her and she killed him? Gwen and Charlies had two random encounters that just came out of the blue and were never followed up on. Which may have been thrown in for red herring purposes. But it could be possible that Gwen has some rage issues and blacks out after she kills folks? First Laura and then Charlie.

My guess is Ava's cousin Angelo, though I don't believe there were any clues to it this week.

Not Gwen.

Yes to Cousin Angelo! You got it!

Yes, there were clues this week that Angelo was very angry at Ava for leaving the family business. Remember Ava telling Tripp about telling Angelo that she was out? That was Wednesday, I think.

Retaliation. And Ava looks like she understand that.

I completely missed that, R174. I figured it was Angelo from the beginning because he's just a day player and there was no other reason to bring him back for a few episodes earlier this year. But good on your mom.

Wouldn't retaliation have been killing Tripp, the one she actually loves?

Will James Scott ever return? The absence of his 13x8.5 is jarring.

Lazy writing for a murder mystery to have the killer be someone who is barely on screen. A better one would've been Sarah Horton's hairstylist found dead. Everyone assumes it's Sarah for revenge but the real culprit is Maggie, forced to have worn wigs for years after the stylist singed her hair off.

R179 LOL! Luv it.

R158 is that PopsforBreakfast Nazi CUNT still there over at FrauCentral? Once tried to ban me because I started a thread saying that Victor's true love is Jack. Her reason was because I was IMPLYING anal sex between two men, and that neither Jack nor Victor ever expressed being gay, so it's character bashing. I was so surprised, I never forgot this. I thought the owner of that site was a gay man

The show has said goodbye to an amazing amount of actress in the past couple of years.

Not in any order = Sheila, Valerie, Tamara, Jan. Sami, Carrie, Chloe, Bonnie, Mimi, Adrienne, Jordan, Haley. Laura (the past four all killed off), Hope, NuCiera (twice), Jennifer, NuJennifer, Vivian, NuVivian, Anna, Abby, NuAbby (again), Claire 1, Ari (sent packing with WilSon). Gabi, NuKristin (jailed), Maggie & now Sarah.

Some were only gone for a few months (like Gabi) but the voids were still there.

I'm on the fence with Julie as she usually pops up once a month but does have her dry spells.

Did I miss anyone?

^ amazing amount of ACTRESSES...

Which 4 Laura characters were killed off?

R181/R182, you should be sorry for "...amazing AMOUNT of..."

R181, I guess NuNuVivian doesn't make your list yet; I almost mentioned her. But she's back in the next two weeks.

R180 The gay owner only cares about doing his annual gig at the Daytime Emmys. He doesn't really care about the message boards and gives his frau monitors free reign. .. The only thing the site is good for is the recaps archive and actor/character stats; but avoid the message boards. .. Same with SON. In the case of that website, it's only good for daytime ratings info and writer/director, actor episode counts. But the message boards are filled with lunatics. Do not engage.

SON attracts the nutjobs and pervs.

Is Suzi Rogers off the show? I haven't been watching.

Why is the lighting so bad?

Suzi is taking a break from the show but she is still top billed, of course.

[R177] No. His spiritual journey has taken him to a dimension far far away.

They need to top-bill Dee while Suzanne is gone. The eternally youthful Dee is the heart and soul of Days.

SON is full of crazies. One loon still says “The Guiding Light” and “TGL” even though the show dropped “The” 40 years before it went off the air. Vee, who is in the biz, basically runs that board and knows everything about everything. He is the expert of all things, especially soaps and politics. He gets anyone banned who disagrees with him. SON was a way better place before Vee had Jonny, Jerry, Eboneece, and Vanessareardon banned.

R177 No he's never coming back according to him and allegedly he kinda hates Ken Corday. Who was one of the reasons why he left the show in the first place.

.....

SON has total lunatics! Soap operas have never been about gay men. They are about Women 18-49 and women 25-54. NOT gay men. SON freaks need to get a clue. Gay men don’t matter.

the pervy fat soapsuds poster facebook friends people in daytime so he can whack off to their pictures!

You know story arcs like Kristen and the mask are bad when even fan sites can't find anything positive to say about it. And these criticisms are coming from more than one site.

That queer Dan Kroll is a fucking mess! Two scoops into his ass!

Kroll is a loon! But.... At least he knows to drop “The” from “Guiding Light.”

Queens Kroll, Giddens, Branco, Fairman et all do nothing for the soap genre. At least Queen Logan knew enough to leave.

^What about Queen Locher?

Queen Locher is a nothing. What have you learned about yourself in quarantine? lolololol He asked that to Goutman’s ex who travelled up and down the east coast and then over to Wyoming to move her daughter back east and then caught covid. What quarantine???

Sarah's looking pretty butch with that haircut.

She also looks like she's dipping into lover boy's steroid stash.

NuJennifer looks old enough to play the role of Laura Horton.

Does Suzie Rogers like the puss?

Congrats to Days, Ron and the gang.

It’s not like Ron directed the show.

[quote]It’s not like Ron directed the show.

Hence the congrats for the writing award.

Someone actually writes this hot mess?

Get an award for writing mask stories where no one notices that its not the same person. Alrighty then. The CBS soaps didn’t even submit themselves because they knew how stupid their writing was.

[quote]Get an award for writing mask stories where no one notices that its not the same person.

Are you brand new to soaps?

R205 Shut up Jenn Fil A.

R194 It's funny how James Scott hates K. Cordey & A. Sweeney yet peddles the spiritual mumbo jumbo that has somehow changed him all for the better.

Joyce Dewitt sang the same tune for years in the media but could never forgive S. Somers for all of her TC drama. Some real spiritual growth there. with these actors

Ron C. likes Triscuit's surprisingly hairy legs.

James Scott's 13x8.5 has been confirmed by several sources. Can you imagine taking that ride?

Has Triscuit won an Emmy or Oscar yet? lolololololololol He’s a terrible actor. All he has going for him is the hairy legs.

Dumb fuck Nellie Branco had to be corrected by a writer. Branco’s an ass. Always giving out wrong info. Idiot.

[R214] What's the story about James Scott and Alison Sweeney? It always seemed like they got on well.

No doubt a united team when it came to contract negotiation.

isn't the award cited at R207 technically for work from a year ago up to that point? so that would exclude the current Kristen/Sarah fiasco but would include Kristen/Nicole. seems a lot of fans are unhappy with today's episode, with many saying they hope Kristen suffers repercussions soon and heavily

R221 The WGA Award is based on the submission of just three scripts from the previous year. .. (The article says, the DAYS scripts were from last year's Mother's Day episodes.) .. Also, it's my understanding that the award is less about actual story and more about the technical craft of writing - so what you've got is is writers in the "guild" awarding other writers for what they do. .. In that regard, they look at how the HW's précis is taken and developed by the associate writers, then broken down even more into acts/scenes by the breakdown writers, to eventually form the teleplay with dialogue and subtext penned by the scriptwriters. So they're looking at the process.

Didn't someone who writes for one of those soap boards once make a homophobic comment about either Days or GH gay storyline?

Oh yeah r223 they do it all the time. I remember one bitch referring to the Will and Sonny and Leo storyline as "that mess". Unsurprisingly the moderators left that comment and deleted mine when I confronted the cunt.

Ask Vee. He’s in the biz, you know.

Serious question: is Alan Locher gay? He's been doing all those Zoom soap reunions on YT. I find him really cute. I tend to go for nice cute Jewish boys, and was just curious. He does nothing to my gaybar, so was just wondering.

Madhi, the DAYS Mod at Frau Central, once suspended me for two weeks for talking about the homoeroticism in the way EJ and Will interacted in 2011.

"JAMES SCOTT IS NOT GAY!" she shrieked in her suspension letter to me.

I countered to her that I was talking about EJ and Will, not the actors. Also, I pointed out that BOTH James and Chandler said that they, as actors, purposefully put even more homoerotic subtext into their acting of the already homoerotic scenes.

"JAMES SCOTT IS NOT GAY!" is all she wrote back.

I never posted at that fucking place again.

R226 Well, he's married to a man, so I guess that makes him gay, if you couldn't already tell...lol

R227I don't either. I only go for the sneak peek discussions but I've left it alone to the cunts

Is that Dan Kroll a gay?

Swickard and Mealor are straight dude bros. They used be the other's wingman at straight bars before Swickard settled down and got married. Nothing to see here. Move it along...

Mealor’s a total pussy hound.

R216 Why hasn't he shared multiple photos and videos with the class?

I am a college educated man. I live in a blue state, in an urban area. I'm gay, do alright, and I am a soap fan. Have been all my life and it's pays homage to my grandma who got me started on these things.

People, like me, who watch soaps are few and far between. However, let's just break it down and be honest, and this is no shade to anyone, but most soap watchers are from red, conservative states, and despite what you see on soap twitter most of them are straight women with high school diplomas and very conservative values.

I am not looking down on anybody, but that is the reality of who watches soaps. When the online soap community gets upset about the lack of gay representation, the portrayal of women, and even how certain storylines and characters just repeat over and over again or the basic conservative values of these shows, it's like they have a block towards accepting who the real audience is.

There is an argument that if these shows modernized and told, bolder more proactive stories they would grow their audience. But I also understand these networks people, who see hemorrhaging numbers for network TV, don't want to upset the apple cart and just cater to the audience they have.

I mostly follow soaps on here and soap twitter. I haven't been to one of those message boards in years. I went to one of Days Facebook pages a couple of weeks ago and it's like a goddamned MAGA rally. And even while soap twitter is a little better than Soap Facebook, even they are delusional about what this genre is and who is watching it.

Can we talk about today's show? I don't think there's ANY chance for Kristen's redemption after today. I mean, she had been going off the rails already what she did to Sarah was OTT

[quote]I don't think there's ANY chance for Kristen's redemption after today.

Think again!

All Kristen did was roll her off in a box. I'm not really sure why that was so egregious.

Research done a couple years ago on American daytime tv showed that DOOL was the most popular daytime show in the state of West Virginia.

Color me shocked r238 😲(Not).

Days Facebook page has been like for years r234. Many of them over hated anything gay related the show did. Heck quite a number of them were quite happy when Dena Higley was brought back because one of Dena's roles was to end all gay stories on the show because "the gays had taken away screen time from the vets, was causing the show to lose its Christian morals and in turn was driving away long time viewers" according to them.

What happened to Sarah? I haven't watched yet

I might actually watch, if we saw Sarah's head explode.

Bill Hayes is 95 years old and he's still got it.

Still got what, r342?

Someone who has privileges at SON, please inform that fucking moron Dumb Dylan that there is no such thing as April Sweeps. Dumbass.

Viagra?

[quote]Still got what, [R342]?

He's 95, but looks like he's 25/30 years younger.

Do Bill and Susie still get it on? They should start a Fans Only.

Dylan is an idiot!!!! Vee, do your job and get him banned. Vee is in the biz, you know.

Dumb Dylan says that Soap digest said April Sweeps. So he plagiarizes an almost dead rag. If SOD said the world is flat, dumber than dirt Dylan would say its true because it was in SOD. Fucken idiot.

Dummy Dylan cant read. SOD doesn’t even call it “sweeps.” It is their annual “spring sneak peek.” What a loser idiot.

It said April Sweeps.

Soapsuds, the perv, was able to get the vaccine.........because he’s FAT! Soapsuds didn’t jump the line but he got in it because he’s FUCKING FAT. You fat fucking pig Soapsuds! Fuck you, FATTY!!!!

I got my vaccine weeks ago. I’m in the biz, you know.

Vee, who is in the biz, gets unlimited vaccines. He’s THAT important. He’s in the biz.

Dylan reports that EJ has been recast. Vee is thisclose to banning him. Vee is in the biz, you know. SON Board police, the biz, politics, toilet bowl cleaning, weight watchers, you name it. All in the biz! Ya hear? Vee is in the biz and the expert of everything

Daniel Goddard IS EJ

That would only work if EJ is now a homeless-looking bum in the park who mumbles unintelligible things to people while he's panhandling.

Mealor seems to recently be showing off a gf.

Is Mealor settling down? Pre- pandemic, he used to eat out a different pussy every night.

Mealor and Swickard are best bros. Gratifying to see them giving up their pussy hounding ways and settling down with sweet young women.

Looks like the former Paul Narita is not a fan of Sarah Silverman right now.

Is Chambo working yet?

Chambo works only when Vee says he can. Vee is in the biz, you know.

Chambo squeezes in odd handyman jobs in between fucking wifey seven times per day. He's too dumb to go to college, so what else is he supposed to do with days.

[quote] so what else is he supposed to do with days.

He could always start an OnlyFans channel and present hole while he still has a couple good years left.

So excited for EJ!

As long as he is handsome and sexy, I don't care that it's not James Scott!

The fat Perv Soapsuds would spend all day watching Chambo’s OnlyFans. The perv would rub his dick dry. Ewwwwww!

Whose got Chandler's nudes?

Not me!

Mrs. Chambo is one lucky bee-otch, with him fucking her 5-7 times a day. But how come she aint pregnant yet?

If R268 had asked without the grammatical error, I might have provided an answer.

Sandra Clark looks AWFUL!!!! She got fat and old.

^Hi Marla!

Has dumb Dylan released his ‘inside’ info on who is playing EJ?

I want Michael Muhney as nuEJ. C'mon, Corday, make it happen.

Anyone under 21 better protect their tits if that happens!

Does he touch guys' titties too? Asking for a friend.

Just Rafe’s

Eli was talking about raising the twins on a cop's salary. Doesn't Eli have Martin money? David got all of that money, unless he left it all to Scotty. And even if he doesn't have Martin money, Julie gave him the Martin house. That has to be worth something.

Not to mention the Olson banking fortune, R279. Plus, it's two cops' salaries, both of whom have some seniority. They're not hurting, but it's a case of Elizabeth Webber Syndrome, where money is always a struggle for an experienced professional.

You're right. Eli isn't just a regular cop, he was in some kind of special unit of the FBI or something similar. They did the same thing with Hope for years, not acknowledging just how rich she was. It came up during that awful Aiden storyline.

Another thing I found interesting was Paulina asking Doug how old he is. Was it just small talk or was there something else to it?

When is titty grabbers first airdate?

Only one EJ as far as I'm concerned but willing to see how another actor portrays the character, especially given new material

Hmmm

Those Spartacus photos are about 8 years old.

He's kinda average looking (imho).

I suppose most Australians can do a passable British accent.

Will he measure up as EJ in the most important way?

Is he a gay?

....

I want RSW inside me quite deeply!

... ....

.......

R291, Looks like he’s having fun!

RSW looks high.

NuEege looks GAY.

RSW is a million times HOTTER than smirky Chambo.

Chambo fucks his wife seven times a day. Who is RSW fucking so many times daily?

R295

RSW loves eating his girlfriend’s pussy out more than 7 times a day.

Chambo fucks wifey 7 times a day. Would he give that up with James Scott offered up his 13x8.5?

Chambo is STRAIGHT. Just because he played gay on Days doesn’t make him gay. Get over it you fatsos.

But the cinglée Original Wilson/Cheddies fans say that Chandler et Freddie are in love and that Freddie's then gf now wife,Ken C., NBC, Sony and that other actor who played Will kept the two of them apart and forced them to hide their love for each other.

The words "Chambo" and "Cheddie" should activate Datalounge strikethroughs.

Xander causes a scene at Julie's Place. I wonder that will be.

R300 I think a number of them are crazy and I also think there was a rumor that one or two of them were trying to cyber stalk Chandler and a couple others allegedly were sending nasty messages to Alyssa.

[quote] Xander causes a scene at Julie's Place.

Let's hope he struts around in a Nasty Pig jock strap!

Fucken weirdos! Chandler is straight. Freddie is straight.

Stupid

Stupid! And mean, mean, MEAN!

I don’t get what happened to Sarah. Kristen shipped her off somewhere? But what about Rex? No one is worried that she doesn’t call her mom? That was a weird and sudden and confusing exit... what’s the deal?

Kristen probably shipped her off to one of their islands. Gonna probably turn her into robo-Sarah one day. I actually liked Sarah on the show

Did "Sarah" ever call Kayla or the hospital to resign?

r308

I did also and all the Hortons(especially Maggie and Mickey's kids) should be on the show... I especially don't understand why they bring Mike back

R310, do you not understand that nobody in charge cares about viewers ancient enough to recall Mickey and Maggie's kids?

Dumb ass Dylan from SON thinks that Days is cancelled but they aren’t going to tell the cast until after they film the last episode. What a fucking idiot.

I love that Rafe brings crime scene evidence home with him and works on it at the kitchen table like he’s paying bills. No biggie...

[quote] I love that Rafe brings crime scene evidence home with him and works on it at the kitchen table like he’s paying bills. No biggie...

Especially considering the mother of the murder victim is his houseguest (and potential suspect and/or accessory to the crime).

On Twitter, someone RT-ed this straight OnlyFans whore, Maximo Garcia.

I think he looks quite a bit like RSW.

.

.....

Well, they both have black hair and a six-pack.

......

How’s chambo’s office job these days? Has the dumbass even gotten a job yet? lololololol

Ask Soapsudz at SON about Chambo nowadays

If I was RSW, I would be mad at VK for her ridiculous status with the show. Recast her!

IA. They need to recast Ciara. VK’s hair model acting shouldn’t be difficult to replace.

I agree, if you can recast EJ Dimera, you can recast fucking Ciara Brady.

RSW is so fucken HOT!!!!!

........

Isn't she NuCiara anyway? .. I mean, Lauren Boles was Ciara.

R326

I would love for her to return and I hate Ben and Ciara

Lauren Boles looks EXACTLY like Camila Banus.

LB would look like a troll next to RSW.

The RoVi "magic" stans would never go for it r326 or probably most of the general Cin fraus over at SC(Frau Central) or DR(Psycho Royalty).

This Ciara/Theo would be a lot more interesting if it was the original actor playing the part or a better recast or an actor who was actually drop dead hot. And I know this is not PC to say, but the show should have retconned Theo's autism away.

r331

they basically already have

A Facebook page called Throwback Soaps has uploaded a lot of the 1983-84 Salem Slasher/Concert storyline. Here's a fun episode from May of '84, which features the fabulous Liz Chandler (Gloria Loring) singing her heart out.

I thought we were supposed to find out who killed Charlie today?

Frau Central thinks that Jan Spears killed Charlie to frame Belle with that button. They say she was pretending to be in a coma.

R331, I was just thinking about that Theo, he was so much better looking.

r334

SOD says we find out on Monday

Is Shemar Moore too old to play Theo?

r338

yes, Chad has to be older than Theo but Abe is definitely old enough to have a child Shemar's age... not that he would ever do it, he could play Brandon... Abe's son and Nicole's brother

R338 Shimmy's salary would bankrupt DOOL. He reportedly makes between $150-200K per episode on SWAT.

R335 That sounds about right for Ron's style of writing.

An inconsequential character killing off an even more inconsequential character... who would have thunk?

Perhaps they could hire Phoenix Fellington to play Theo. And actually, Greyson Lane might make a good GrindrJoey. Their on-screen chemistry is pretty good.

R335 I thought that before I read your post.

The show seems to be pointing in that direction.

I miss gay Kyler as Theo.

Dumb Dylan from SON is all concerned because Days finished their season yesterday and no renewal has been announced. What a fucken idiot.

Jan being the killer and setting up Belle is very DAYS.

I will miss the character, though.

Just have Ben and Jake have a drunken night together! Forget Ciara and Great-Grannie Kate! And Mexi-whore Gabi!

I hope they don't kill Jan off.

So question about Sarah. The character just disappears forever with no plans of returning as a recast?

I wanna support by gay brethren but I think Ron needs help or needs to move on. He caved in to pressure from the trumptard viewers and did not put the gay couple, boring as they may be, as one of the front and center stories (even a single but mischievous Leo could've worked for me) and keeps recycling storylines from back when he was at OLTL (Abby's mental health). I like his acknowledgment of the show's history and adding some campiness, but there needs to be a balance.

Also DAYS doesn't seem to be able to develop intriguing long term storylines like GH expertly does (Y&R use to but is just plain moribund now). It constantly feels like there's a race against the clock to present something, develop it then resolve it within a month or two. Maybe they're afraid it will be cancelled soon, I dunno. But it is affecting the overall quality.

You and I clearly watching two very different GHs. The only place were GH excels is in production value. The story is lame.

And while Ron is not without his problems, you do need to know when to blame Ron for something and when to blame others. Ron had a big story planned for Will, Sonny, and Leo but those plans were sidelined by others. Just like I suspect this black storyline will be sidelined... just based on the MAGA viewers reaction to it.

Ron has two things going against him. 1) he's not a producer and 2) he's in New York. This is one of the reasons why he's always posting his breakdowns on Twitter. Things get changed during taping, things get cut for time, things are filmed in a way that he didn't intend. It happens and he can't control those things.

From the April Fools episode last year, you kind of get how crazy the Leo story could have gotten if Ron had his ways... Not as crazy as Will sleeping with Leo, but Leo was a troublemaker character who had many tricks up his sleeves.

Dumb fuck Dylan from SON continues to be a moron. Stupidest person ever. He just doesn’t get it.

R348 there had been complaints for years about the gay characters on the show by certain segments of Days fans. That's one of the reasons why they had brought back the wicked witch of the West as HW because allegedly she promised them that getting rid of the gays on the show would help bring back lost viewers.

😴 This show has become boringly painful to watch.

Nothing new to see hear. Same ridiculous plots, different day.

NuJennifer should have been cast as NuLaura.

She's not at all believable as Jennifer Rose.

Why isn't Dee Dee Halls top billed instead of that wigged out Suz Rogers? MIss Halls is the true star of the show.

Is the Ben & Marlena sex romp still set for May Sweeps?

People complaining must not watch the other three dumpster fires on daytime. As mentioned above, GH has beautiful sets, and some great actors. But, there hasn't been a decent payoff to one of their endless threads in years. I'll cut for Ron. He may go off the rails sometimes, but there is always a payoff and lots of fun in his storytelling.

And yes, I would be here for Barlena.

Marlena gets Ciara's sloppy seconds?

Marlena needs some action down there. Ben is fucking HOT!

Cady is a much better Jennifer than that hateful Xtian bitch Reeves.

Cady has mental issues. Cray cray.

Crazy is better than homophobic Xtian.

Per Jason47:

"Days of Our Lives" wrapped production yesterday, managing to still finish taping its season on time, even though pandemic delays caused the show to tape 112 episodes over the past 14 weeks straight without any breaks. "Days" now awaits word of a renewal from NBC.

I thought it was "Queen Jason 47?"

R364 DL generally uses the more colloquial "Queen Jason."

But if you want to be more formal, then it becomes "Her Royal Majesty, Queen Jason XLVII."

[quote] Marlena gets Ciara's sloppy seconds?

With Marlena, Ben finally experiences hot, passionate lovemaking. .. And Marlena is finally paired with a man her own age.

Is that Queen Jason47’s way of getting Dumb Dylan at SON saying that Days is cancelled? lol

Days should be cancelled but probably won't be because no one at NBC has to guts to pull the cord.

R363 Days' season ends in September, so the show ended taping 5 months ahead...

R366 lol The Doc can barely move her lips or hips these days!

If they do go there I hope they fuck on a conference table...

R371 Doc trading John in for a newer model?

Yep r372 and Ciara catches them just after getting her memory back, then she turns evil...

Isn’t Marlena’s snatch all dried up? Ben wouldn’t want it.

If Ben wants to seduce Marlena he should do it Stefano style. Through her boudoir at night.

Fuck off, snatch freak, at R374.

You are SO demented and diseased in the head.

To Dee and Jane Elliot still "lunch" together? I wonder what's on the menu.

Anyone watch today's EP on demand? It was preempted here... I think I already know who killed Charlie but they were supposed to reveal it today

It was revealed today R378 and it is who you think it is.

IMO Lucas Adams nailed it today with his monologue about family, especially going from his adoptive mother and father to finding his true family. Was so much better than the Charlie's murder plot lines.

R380 Too bad he's playing such a boring character... Tripp is also down to one episode per week. I wonder if Ron is planning to write him off.

Renewal update...

Deadline:

[quote] the producers have been making if-come deals with key cast members in the past few weeks

RSW, Beemer, Telfer, Adams, Archey, Johnson .. they would be the the key cast members for if-cum deals.

What's up with Jack's hair? Is it a wig? A new wig?

NuWig?

R384, who’d buy hair that bad? It has to be real, it’s just poorly dyed and styled. It also looks dirty..

^^^ LOL. I know it looks bad...just thought (especially in the back, along Jack's neckline) it looks terribly fake. But you're probably right...just poorly dyed, horribly styled, and dirty. Thanks for the response (you, too, R385).

It absolutely looks like a wig behind Jack's ears. Like, a 1968 PLANET OF THE APES wig.

It looks like a cheap pull-on wig, especially in the back.

So the most interesting thing about Days is Jack's bad hair? Meanwhile, Ron was under the delusion people cared who shot Charlie...

R389 Why the surprise? .. With the star of the show, Suzanne Rogers, temporarily gone, it seems totally predictable that viewers would begin to focus on other cheap wigs and/or bad hair.

If they had drug-addled monkeys sitting in front of keyboards they might do a better job with story lines. So, Kristen DiMera has a problem, she whacks someone in the back of the head. How original. 🙄 How repetitive. Sarah, now Kate. Who’s next?

Ok I think I am done with "the writer"... He now has Kristen pulling out a Kate mask? What the actual fuck

[quote] Pulling out a Kate mask?

Again with this crap? .. Perhaps 'the writer" should try something different and have the guy playing NuEJ exposed as an imposter who's caught wearing a cock sleeve or penis extender to make himself appear to be 13 x 8.5. .. At least that would be something new.

How many masks does this woman have??

[quote] How repetitive. Sarah, now Kate. Who’s next?

Don't forget Amazon Nicole.

Let's not forget ... When Carlivati was was writing for other soaps, he was referred to as "Re-Ron" and "Cartooni" -- the latter a smushname for Carlivati & Valentini, denoting what viewers thought of their stories.

OG Chad and Will rock out

Days has been doing masks since the early 80s. This is fine.

Anyone have a link to the famous Stefano & Sonny sex scene? Stonny sounds like two tonnes of fun. The writing was better back then.

Girl on girl action coming to Salem.

The Kristen mask thing is now waaaaay beyond absurd. They’ve used and abused this plot device. The scripts are likely being written by some computer program.

As I read on a Days' discussion board, "Does Ron hate his audience?"

Renewed for two more years!! DOOL!!

I'm not complaining, but...

Have you noticed that there are NO actual, live children (babies, toddlers, otherwise) appearing on DOOL?

Eli and Lani's twins are nothing more than recorded baby cries and coos (my husband and I call all the infants "rubber babies," Ali's included).

Chloe Lane's son, Parker, is with his grandparents in New York.

Nicole's daughter, Holly, is never shown, although she apparently lives with her in Salem.

Brady's son Tate (husband and I call him "Taint") is with his mother in California.

And Brady and Kristen's daughter, Rachel, cries from time to time somewhere in the bowels of Marlena and John's home.

Gabi's daughter, Arianna, is with her gay dad(s) in Arizona. A cute Arianna was on for a few episodes before the big move to Arizona.

I guess Chad and Abigail's children, Thomas and Charlotte, were on a while back, but that's about it.

I guess it's a way to cut the budget, especially since kids are usually cast with twins to make sure child labor laws are observed.

That makes Claire and Chanel the youngest ones, unless I'm mistaken. Which I am, frequently.

R404 On British soaps, babies and kids have all but disappeared ever since the the COVID filming restrictions took effect. And on those shows, I'd say it's been far more noticeable, since kids are much more involved in stories and family scenes, and almost always grow up before our very eyes (no sorasing to speak of). Perhaps, some of the U.S. soaps are restricting their access as well.

It's Covid related R404

Thank you both, R405 and R406.

Of course this means, that I will be turning 40 by then end of Season 58!

Fucking Kristen’s accent today. She might as well have busted out a Butterfly McQueen impression.

For the uniformed: Don't take R408 at face value.

Years ago, setside insiders let it be known that DH lied abut her age in order to get the job -- claiming she was 18, when in fact, she was only 15.

So to figure her real age, make sure to always deduct three years.

Why she's still keeping this "story" going is anyone's guess. Perhaps she's trying to protect her agent or something?

Drake doesn't look bad in the photo at R408. Still not a great though, but looks good for 67.

Oh, for fuck’s sake. Is she going to toss most of the town in the damn wine cellar — into which no one else enters. 🙄

I wonder if Kyle and Eric got turned on watching Mike do his dance in the fifth slide?

Now that the show has been renewed for two years..... and it's getting easier/safer to travel....and Linsey Godfrey got the boot......shall we start betting pool about Missy Reeves' return?

I say within two months, her return will be announced.

R413 Nice view of Mike's ass at the end of the video

R415 I noticed that too! .. His husband must have fun with that!

how the fuck does Kristen EVER come back from the shit she has been doing?

A brain tumor is always a convenient out, R417.

Judging by most of the Days/soap boards and sites, no one is happy with the latest Kristen story line. The entire masks thing is a farce in itself. But yesterday, not only did we have Lani moaning she hated having to arrest Kristen but then Kristen went on a semi sob story about how she was was so sorry and never meant to hurt anyone. BUT... after she was taken into custody, she tried to make a deal, apparently having all charges dropped for the safe return of Chloe who she had kidnapped! Realizing it's soap "reality", but how many times is Salem PD and the DA's office going to make deals with Kristen?!? It's just so stupid at this point.

Exactly R419.

Plus, not for one second did she think, "Oh, snap, I need to call Xander and tell him NOT to kill Sami and Lucas". Because, for all she knew, they were both dead.

Days has been doing masks since the 80s. The entire Salem Strangler storyline was just one mask after the next. I can understand people getting upset if the Young and the Restless does masks, but not Days. And yes we know that Kirsten and Kate and Sarah have different builds, but so did John and Roman.

Stefano was always coming back from the dead. Marlena had the devil in her and spent months in a golden cage. Kristen has lost her damned mind again, but she is doing nothing that isn't outside of the Days playbook. Of the two remaining shows, Days and GH can do these types of stories without missing a beat.

If the quibble is plot holes, then fine, because you really can drive a truck through some of the plot holes, and I do hope that some of them will be addressed. But not the masks.

And what's fun about this show is that it addresses the absurdity of it. The other day Jake said, I just moved here, I didn't know this kind of shit went down in this town. That was funny.

[quote] But not the masks

Don’t care. They’re still stupid. It’s a cheap, sloppy, lazy plot device — no matter how long they’ve relied on this trick.

R432 I agree.

File under: Two (or however many) wrongs don't make a right.

^^^ Typo: The reply above was referencing R422.

Chad is a fucking ugly crier.

^^^ Agree. I think Chad and Phillip look alike.

I'm surprised that they didn't try and retcon Chad into being Kate's kid.

Speaking of Chad ...

I see Chad's Ass is still one of the main stars of this show.

That was a fashionable summer suit they had him wearing today, but they must have painted those pants on him.

Has Susan always been this "mentally challenged"?

this looks awesome!

^^^

When it comes to summer swimwear, Ben & Tripp should be sporting fashionable snug-fit briefs or square-cuts instead of boring ol' trunks.

Hot Daddy Eric is back?

The styling of Nu-E.J. is rather uhhh .. disappointing. .. Is he supposed to look like an insurance salesman?

Twink Johnny! .. If twin sister Allie is kissing girls, can he be kissing boys?

Except for Eric, it looks great.

Half expected Paulina to say Mary!

r433

Paulina is in room 227 lol

R431 Agreed, NuEJ look unimpressive lacking that charisma and presence of the old EJ. But then EJ has gone through a lot of trauma, so will have to see.

There have been rumors of Johnny coming to Salem for a couple of years, but then Ally showed up instead, and now he just shows up in a promo without any previous buzz or fanfare...

I really hate the lezzie stuff. And it's STILL going to be ongoing.

OF course, Claire will probably be so hurt being "rejected" by Ben that she turns lezzie with "I'm-NOT-gay!" Chanel.

Yuck.

That's what makes people TURN gay, right?

Awful, Ron.

Who's playing Johnny? Even the soap press has no real news on Johnny. Just some mentions of him being in the promo.

R438 Queen Jason will have to get on the case !!

NuEJ screen test

NuEJ looks better with some scruff (as in the audition tape). .. I wonder who's idea it was to shave him (as seen in the preview clip).

R439 Went to Queen Jason's forum and those Frauen got the dirt on NuJohnny. They are saying the actor is Carson Boatman and he's an actor/country singer. Oh dear...

NuJohnny looks very generic.

Here is Johnny... nice body. Looks like big brother Will.

R444 Looks a bit like DYKWIA there.

Another photo...

He's 25 yo, so I suppose he can still play a "teen" in soaps. How old is Johnny supposed to be now? Has he been SORAS'ed?

I guess he was also an underwear model...

[quote] How old is Johnny supposed to be now?

R449 Well, Johnny is supposed to be the exact same age as Allie, since they are Sami's twins born via superfecundation. Wasn't she said to be 21 when she arrived last year? So yes, he would be sorased too, since the twins were born in 2007.

Isn't there another daughter in Sami's litter? Can't even remember her name.

R452 Sami and EJ have another daughter named Sydney DiMera. She was born in early 2009.

[quote] They are saying the actor is Carson Boatman and he's an actor/country singer. Oh dear...

R442 Oh dear is right. He has a youtube channel where he has videos of himself singing.

It looks like Boatman has a fiancee. His future wife (Julana Dizon) refers to herself as a model, on-camera host, actress, etc. and thirsty to be a brand ambassador and influencer. She has a story section on her IG about the wedding plans. It seems to be forthcoming. Engagement photo.

Carson also has a guncle, David Boatman, the guy on the right in the blue jean jacket. The blond on the left is his hubby, Peter Murdock. David and Peter reside in NYC and you can find them at social events. Gee, I wonder if they happen to know Ron C. and his husband?

Allie is a college graduate, and, as stated above, she was 21 last year, so they must be 22 now.

R455 The same type of gf as FCF's, then. Well, now she's a real estate agent! Guess one of them has to work...

While I was hoping for the tall, dark, handsome type for Johnny. This isn't bad casting. And it's nice that the actor works out.

R454 Dear lord, who told him he could sing... that song. It's like his voice gave out when trying to hold the high notes.

R458 If FCF is also planning to get his R.E. license, then he would have to report his felony conviction, which could lead to an additional step in the process involving review by the Florida licensing board.

R461 No, he will just be the "helpful husband". Guess they will try to use his "celebrity status" lol to attract some clients.

Freddie has apparently let himself completely go while in Florida.

Suzi Rogers is still top billed on Days

Days of our Lives

Starring

Suzanne Rogers

As

Maggie Horton

R463 As we all at DL predicted!

Enough r464

[quote]Freddie has apparently let himself completely go while in Florida.

Well, maybe he wanted to blend in with the locals.

DOOL!

EEJ!

That's a very wide manspread on the new EJ.

Doing that post over again.

That's a very wide manspread on the new EJ.

The table leg is in the way.

What was that, a meeting of The Sami Brady Ex-Husbands' Club?

So apparently Barlena is a go!

They really do look good together!

Ciara, who?

Barflena indeed!

Does NuEJ only have that one suit?

and when did EJ call Sami, Sami? I thought he only called her Samantha

Lots of Dimera shoutouts today! I would love if Peter came back

Loved when when Gabi was going through the DiMera family tree and Jake responded, "Another one?!" Certainly seems that way every few years.

[quote] Does NuEJ only have that one suit?

It seems like they're going for an insurance salesman look.

I was confused by the Johnny is too young to vote in the dimera drama comment, Allie's old enough to be out on her own so would Johnny

I know it's early, but I'm not a fan of nuEJ. He called Sami "Sami" yesterday which annoyed me and maybe it's the way they're styling him, but he doesn't look right. There is something clearly off about him.

r481

I agree with all your points... he doesn't have enough swagger but I don't hate him yet

So far, the only win I've seen for Days is...

OUTSTANDING YOUNGER PERFORMER IN A DRAMA SERIES

Victoria Konefal as Ciara Brady, Days of Our Lives (NBC)

Victoria Konefal and Cady McClain won.

Cady McClain won a Daytime Emmy for her portrayal as Jennifer Horton Deveraux - something which I believe Queen of the Chk-Fil-A Melisa Reeves never achieved. Hope that doesn't sting TOO much.

Has Missy Reeves ever even been nominated for a Daytime Emmy?

Twice. In 1992, she was nominated in the Younger Actress category (along with Cady McClain). Tricia Cast of Y&R won. In 2016, she was nominated for Supporting Actress (for the pill-popping storyline, I think), but lost to Jessica Collins of Y&R.

(Correcting myself: the 2016 nomination was for the Jennifer/Eve/JJ stuff)

At least Missy wore the ribbon !!

Shirtless Tripp and Ben tomorrow... with bonus dead body!

I just hope Ben, who grew up in the mountains of Missouri, says "What's that floating in the wahtah?"

Has Ben been reversed-SORASed? He was married to Abigail. Was she robbing the cradle?

I think this is the first time Tripp has been shirtless since returning last September! What kind of soap is this? I think Xander has been doing all the shirtless scenes for a while.

R493, hopefully Tripp be bottomless by Labor Day.

Funny how they appear to be celebrating a 45th anniversary, since I don't even think she's 40 yet.

But we wouldn't want to was a good cake.

The storylines are still dull as dishwater but shirtless Tripp, Ben, Xander and Eli help.

Queen Jason is reporting that Suzanne Rogers is back at work, so the top billing troll will be thrilled.

Does anyone know why the Twitter people Victoria Konefal?

R498, are you missing a word? 'hate' 'love'

Sorry. That should be 'hate'. Why are they always coming for her?

This may not be "the Twitter people's" reason, but it seems like Days bends over backwards to accommodate HER comings and goings, which basically means they build story around HER schedule. Kinda stupid since she's not all that, and could easily be recast.

Who does she think she is? Alison Sweeney?

Ben and Tripp need to start doing gay for pay porn.... (ignore the bear)

R503. They didn’t get nearly enough screen time yesterday.

I'm surprised they went to the trouble of dragging out and setting up the fake greenery for about three minutes of screen time.

I didn't rewind to double check but Ben had his shirt on when the girls discovered and when Eli showed up it was off... I thought that was weird

The actor paying Doug looked like he was having a hard time with his lines today

R506, they are shooting at lightning speed and budgets for continuity, medical experts, continuity....all out the window.

If Jim Reilly were still writing this show, Ben would be shirtless in every episode and there would be even more hot guys. And Lucas would be in the gym.

Although I was a big fan of DAYS from 1982 to 1991, I lapsed as a viewer after that (missing SATAN!).

However, I checked out a few Late 2003 episodes when I heard about Roman's death. But I got hooked again because of ONE episode in Early 2004 when JER had Rex, Brady, Shawn, John, Bo, and Tek all shirtless! I haven't missed an ep since!

That same day in 2004, JER on PASSIONS also had Miguel, Luis, Ethan and Fox all shirtless as well - NEW FAN!

In a perfect world, NBC would cancel days and Sony would sell it to Peacock for a song so that we could, like, watch Ben and Tripp change into their swimsuits together.

R510,

you stopped in 1991?

omg you missed a lot; vivian burying carly alive, RRK as Bo, who was sexy in a different way; Sami's myopic obsession of wanting Austin's Patrick and Austin; vivian vs. Kate; Marlena and John on the jet; Sami stealing Belle; Marlena getting her back on Christmas; Marlena's possession; Marlena v. Kristen; sexy Peter Blake; Celeste and her visions. Zany Susan.

SURREAL

R511 Too bad two dudes bumping their phallic beer bottles R503 is as gay as it gets on this show. At least Ron sent the girls away to find a dead bloated corpse first.

R512, I checked the show out every now and then but never for long from 1992 to 2003.

I **DID** get the RKK issue of Playgirl and have "used" it countless times in the last 20+ years!

[quote] two dudes bumping their phallic beer bottles.

It's like something out of a gay pron set up where the two supposedly straight dudebros start drinking brewskies and end up fucking.

Tripp would be bottom for Ben, right?

Since Ben once worked as a gaiter named "Kevin" down in Miami, he's probably familiar with the concept of being vers, for whatever the client might want.

Kevin, Oliver, Ben... all of Ben's sexy aliases!

You KNOW he was a PROSTATUTE!

R516, even in my version, yes.

In a perfect world, NBC would order a DOOL online-only spin-off: "Ben & Tripp's OnlyFans" page.

Each week a new video would be released where Ben & Tripp go one step further in their exploratory adventures.

After awhile, there'd be special guest appearances by other guys like Xander, Shawn Douglas, Eli, etc.

The show would also uses Ben & Tripp's OnlyFans venue as part of the audition process to showcase guys who are trying out to be NuCharacters so they can gauge audience appeal.

Worst ratings of all-time released.

I'm not watching because of predatory Chanel grooming Allie into lesbianism.

Chanel is creepy and Sandra from 227 is not much fun.

R521 Too bad a predatory Leo isn't around to groom Ben/Tripp into homosexual...ism.

R522 Precious Way (yes, that's her name) who plays Chanel is leaving. But there seems to be a recast.

Yes, she got a new job, and the recast is already filming.

Ugh. Why is Ron pushing this "fluidity" story?

I can see Chanel being fluid, but Allie has said many times she is not bisexual.

Next week, Allie "comforts" Chanel after the Paulina revelations, and the week after that, Chanel tells Allie she has romantic feelings for her. Blech.

Allie is being groomed into lesbianism.

Leo was predatory but it was funny. The way he humped around the mansion rubbing up on Xander and Brady.

Wasn't Leo supposed to have a longer storyline along with his mother? The whole Leo as John's No. 2 gay son should have played out more before being aborted.

Judith Chapman bombed as Leo's mom, NuDiana Colville.

If there was supposed to be more, I can see why they might opt to shit-can it.

I liked her, Leo and the storyline.

I did, too, R529.

They had a great story planned for Leo, Will and Sonny, but it was scrapped. Because there were complaints about Leo from the usual suspects.

Well, I hope complaints get the Chanel grooming Allie storyline cancelled.

[quote] They had a great story planned for Leo, Will and Sonny,

Can't imagine anything "great" with Sonny, unless Leo planned on killing him to become the Wealthy Widow Kiriakis.

Sonny was super cute & FUN when he first appeared on the canvas. I was completely on board as an old-school DAYS fan of his parents. Wha' happened????

R520 Why do you constantly post the most elaborate and unrealistic "What if" scenarios on EVERY soap thread?

It's like..."Will should sit on NuEJ's face then move over to Sonny's face and then go down on Lucas while Ben walks in with Clive and then they both join. Wouldn't that be marvelous?"

WTF?

[quote]Wha' happened????

It was a bunch of things. I think the actor stopped caring about his looks and his performance. I think the anti-gay fans became more vocal and the show just gave up. Chandler was no without his problems, but it was telling that he came alive in almost every scene with everyone except Sonny.

The final straw with me was when Leo called Sonny a twink. I was appalled.

I will be interested in seeing how much longer the show is going to continue the expanded black storyline and this new sexual fluidity storyline. Both stories seem to be pissing off the same people who didn't like Will and Sonny.

Of course, I enjoyed the gay storyline since 2011.

I despise the fluidity storyline because Chanel is grooming Allie, who has repeatedly said that she is not gsy or bisexual.

When Allie finally gives in to Chanel's sick pressure, the straights at home will see it as that there is no real homosexual orientation. "Gay" people can switch back to straight just like that, back and forth.

It's homophobic, and I'm not watching it.

r536

I'm actually a fan of CM but it is his job as an actor to sell whatever is written and it was obvious that CM did not want to be with FS. Someone should have stepped him(which maybe is what happened as they were let go)... if CM doesn't want to act then DOOL needs to get an actor who will as the character of Will should be on canvas especially with EJ and 2 of his 3 siblings on screen as well as his parents at the moment

CM was clearly excited to work with Christopher Sean.

Just recast FCF. No one wants to see him onscreen anymore.

My thing with Chandler was that he was selling it with everyone else, which says to me is that it wasn't so much a Chandler problem as it was a Freddie problem. Between the craft services table and his side hustles, Freddie was not there. Chandler even had chemistry with Galen and Galen has never been able to generate chemistry with anyone, except Lauren Koslow, on that show.

AND the Coors Light!

r541

you would think he would get enough exercise dodging all of those legal troubles

R538 Doubt CM will come back on a regular basis. He seems settled nicely in Atlanta now and Days hasn't much to offer in terms of contract other than a couple more years at most likely decreased pay. There's just no future in it anymore. Now that CM is busy with his own life, I wouldn't object to a recast for both Will and Sonny. Just no Strudel, please.

I don’t think DOOL has the makeup budget to keep covering Studel’s hideous tats

Such bros!

R545 Fuckin' Bros?

Brandon has held up well over the years.

Ben’s being such a psycho with Ciara now that she’s engaged to Theo. I’m ready for him to move on and get with fellow reformed (attempted) murderer Claire.

I would care more about this story if nuTheo was hotter or played by the other guy who was so much better looking.

When do Ben and Marlena hit the sheets?

Or does it happen on top of her desk?

R549, YES!.

I don’t give a fuck about this “Theo.”

Now this guy needs to be Theo.

R548 NuClaire was supposedly fired.

r553

what? Gracias a dios! Where did you hear this?

R554 Not R553 but I remember some fraus on Twitter were lamenting the show never gave NuClaire a good storyline before letting her go a couple of weeks ago.

nuClaire was fired?

is Olivia Rose coming back?

I thought Olivia Rose had a kind of “starved to madness” villainous vibe to her version Claire that was believable.

NuClaire also looked like she was Belle’s sister and not daughter.

You know…I use to watch this soap when I was depressed…..it made me feel good to involve myself in other people’s problems…even if it was just theatrical. I finally discovered that it was a coping mechanism to take my mind off my pathetic life……what a revelation.

Olivia Rose is one of the worst actresses I’ve ever seen.

Vivian Jovanni made Olivia Rose look like a future Daytime Emmy winner.

Lucas just got engaged...

R561 CHRIST. Get that kid some facial hair. Stat.

Thank goodness it’s not RSW! R561
