Christmas & NYE Sneak Peeks: The Final Update!

THE FINAL UPDATE:

The Horton ornament ceremony looks like it is set to air in Act 3 on Christmas Day. If so, 17 characters are around for the Horton ornament ceremony, including three first-time attendees (Adrienne, Kate and Arianna). With my Christmas records going back to 1983, this will be the second-most attendees at a Horton ornament ceremony (2004 still leads the list with 21 characters).

Also, 23 characters end the Christmas episode in the show’s original set, where “Days” celebrated its first Christmas in 1965…the Horton Living Room.

For those who have yet to see that first Christmas episode from 1965, please enjoy watching it here:

Thanks to everyone who enjoyed the sneak peek reveals over the past few months. Have fun following along with the Scene-By-Scenes over the next week as you watch December 19, December 24 and December 25, and see which scenes get cut and which scenes make the final edit! Happy Holidays & Merry Christmas to all the “Days” fans!!

NEW YEAR’S EVE SNEAK PEEK:
Uh, oh….two characters end the year with a fight at the Kiriakis Mansion.
After Nicole’s Cameraman leaves on December 30, she spends 10 scenes over the course of December 30 and December 31 at the Kiriakis Mansion with Brady/Daniel/Eric. 6 of those 10 scenes involve the Stunt Coordinator, and in the aftermath of the fight, Daniel ends up with a small cut on his right forehead and Brady’s shirt is torn and dirty.

Hopefully the other Salemites will have a more enjoyable end to 2013!
