Summer DOOL- John's dead... now what?

This show is painful to watch these....days.

The new writers made everything dull as dishwater......

DOOL?

DROOL.

DOOL!

The John and the wedding eps were great because they had people we actually know and care about. I fear everything is going to be a let down now

Ditchwater.

Why don't they bring back Peter Blake to stir shit up?

I’m laughing at all the morons who swore that the show would be better now that women were writing the show. lol

And even if they changed it today, it would be 10 months before anyone would see it!

What is the point of Stacy Haiduk? Get rid of her and Galen Gering and Josh Taylor.

The show has unfortunately become background noise for me. I really needed the camp and over-the-top antics to keep my attention. DOOL isn't on network or even cable and they've never really taken advantage of this.

I'm still giving the new writers a chance. It's still early, but you can see where they're laying the groundwork for stories. I am curious where they're going with this One Stormy Night book story and what EJ's big plan for the hospital is.

I agree that the show doesn't take advantage of being on Peacock and modernizing the language and the stories, but then I remember that Days still has to sell the show to foreign markets, so they want to keep it as close to a network broadcast as possible.

I still can't believe Paul and Andrew HUGGED instead of kissed at their wedding.

NuWriters!

What, no jokes about Felicity falling off the balance beam?

Yeah, I'm not really paying attention to this snoozefest anymore, either.

When does Sami come back?

and is she bringing Sydney??

I know that Shawn and Caroline still loved John after he was revealed to not be ROman... DId John continue to call them Ma and Pop for the rest of their lives or did he stop at some point?

John called Caroline Brady by the name "Carolyn" after it was revealed she wasn't his biological mother. Thereby, John mispronounced the name of the woman he at one time thought was his mother.

But in fairness, half the town referred to her as "Carolyn" seeming to think that was the proper pronunciation of name Caroline,

Caroline and Carolyn are in fact two separate names with two separate pronunciations. The pronunciations are not interchangeable. Neither are the spellings.

One Stormy Night reminds me of the Body & Soul mess. Come on, NuWriters. Do better.

My concerns exactly, R21!

NuWriters are Lous-ers on Melaswen.

One Stormy Night sounds like a gothic mystery and not a steamy love story. Lousy title in keeping with the lack of imagination on this program. And when they actually write an episode that works on many levels (Paul and Andrew's wedding), they have to obliterate it by not having the couple kiss but just hug. Sadly, I think this show is lurching toward a most unsatisfying conclusion.

One Stormy Night was the name of a Days primetime episode that aired in January 1992 immediately before the Soap Opera Digest Awards.

Days usually won a lot of those Soap Digest Awards, so it was a natural to do a primetime episode of Days immediately before the awards.

...

I think he played Victoria's BF on Y&R

Is this site reliable? WHo would he play?

R25 We know that one stormy night was a title of the primetime episode. That doesn’t make it less Body & Soul memories.

SOD confirmed the hiring in r27

NuStefan?

Nu Scotty Banning?

Nu Max Brady?

Nu Joey Johnson?

One of Adrienne and Justin's twins?

Nu Jeremey Horton?

Nu Nathan Horton?

Nu Theo Carver?

Nu Nicholas Alamain?

Marlena and John's long-rumored 1986 baby?

Sami in disguise?

Extended summer preview.

Looks promising.

that looks good!

Agreed. I have not been feeling too optimistic lately.

That preview does look good.

Time for nuNuKristen.

but it looks good because they have people we love and who we want to see like Sami, Mike, Will et al

An actual courtroom set?!?!?!?

Have Dougie and Shawn D interacted? They are cousins

[quote] Who would he play?

Is Roark too old to be paired with Marlena?

She does seem to go for older men.

[quote] They are cousins.

Aren't DW3 and ShawnD half-cousins? That should make things somewhat less awkward if Power Bottom Shawn and Alpha Top Doug find each other on Delve and decide to go for it.

Let’s Delve into that.

Doesn’t a half first cousin just become a second cousin? One shared grandparent…

Is Andre even talking about the episodes anymore?

Andre now discusses the Iran war and diddy sentencing.

[quote] Doesn’t a half first cousin just become a second cousin? One shared grandparent

R43 No. Second cousins are the children of two people who are first cousins. And what this means is that each of these second cousins has a grandparent who is the sibling of the other's grandparent.

Example: Will Whoreton and Tate Black are second cousins because their respective mothers, Sami Brady and Theresa Donovan, are first cousins. As such, Will's grandfather, Roman Brady, and Tate's grandmother, Kimberly Brady Donovan, are siblings.

R43 - First cousins share a set of grandparents. Second cousins share a set of common great grandparents.

Andrew Donovan is the uncle of Tate through his mother and Paul Narita is the uncle of Tate through his father.

I love Melinda and Sophia together. I find it curious that she didn't decide to use the baby to hold on to Tate. I also like Leo and Javi getting the baby. Leo is much more interesting now that he's not Ron's avatar.

I have to be honest, I'm still giving the new writing team time, but I'm not mad at the show right now. I find it very watchable. I love the Maggie and Xander scenes.

Aihpos Adnilem is the Greek Orthodox Church…

on Melaswen.

My sources are telling me the show is going to "honor" the memory of John by introducing his (and Marlenas) long lost child. Yes, Marlena was pregnant when she disappeared back in 1986. That's why Tony (and Anna) are mixed into the storyline.

I totally agree with you, R49 regarding Melinda and Sophia. I wish Melinda was used more often as she plays comedy, bitch, and motherly with ease.

When are Connie and Cardboard Li returning?

R47, sharing a set of great grandparents is essentially sharing one grandparent. It’s the same extent of relationship but not too worried about it.

R46, don’t you worry your precious self about complicated issues.

Tate should consider applying for work at SAY UNCLE!
