First, I really enjoyed this episode with Julie and Everett. I’m not sure the writers even know what they’re doing with Everett’s character. They brought up Nick Fallon, they brought up Tommy Horton. They didn’t bring up Jessica, Marie’s daughter, but didn’t she have a split personality? Could Everett be a long lost twin? My bigger question is does no one in Salem know about Google? Any one of these people could google Everett’s name and/or Bobby’s name and see what pops up. This is a man who was an award winning journalist. Shouldn’t he have something online or a social media presence somewhere? This is the 21st century. Are the writers unaware of the internet?
The term was first used in 1937, but the idea of time capsules is from much earlier. https://web.uvic.ca/vv/student/edges_of_time/timecapsules.html#:~:text=The%20time%20capsule%20and%20its,time%20capsule%20is%20much%20older.
I have to agree. They just seemed to drop everything. I wonder if this has anything to do with the scab writers and moving into our regular writing team. It seems so odd that we rushed to start these stories and then just poof! They’re gone. I especially want this Konstantin and Teresa storyline to move. Why did they have Konstantin go from wooing Maggie and harassing Teresa to all of a sudden harassing Steve and John? It’s like they got bored writing one story so they moved on and wrote another one. It’s like that with every storyline you mentioned.
As for Everett, I’ve heard rumors that Everett might have DID, or possibly it’s like a Bourne Identity storyline. I hope he’s not involved with Clyde. And speaking of Clyde, is this not the most stupid storyline. He’s more powerful than the Dimeras and he basically is running a kingpin type drug ring (and an entire town) from a prison cell. What the hell? I hope they kill Clyde off soon. I’m so sick of him.
If you’ve seen the previews for next week, Holly tells Nicole the drugs weren’t from Tate. I don’t think she’ll need to be hypnotized.
As for Konstantin and this stupid Pawn storyline, please let it end. I’m so sick of Teresa trying to get Alex’s money, the inheritance really being Xanders, and this terrible actor who plays Konstantin looking for revenge. End it please and put us all out of our misery.
They just dedicated the episode to his memory. They did the same when John Aniston died and even when Arlene Sorkin died.
Scenes with Doug’s passing won’t be seen until about 6 months from now. We’ve seen no previews for that. I don’t even know if they’ve shot the episode with Doug’s passing yet, considering Susan is probably still home and grieving Bill’s passing.
Eli’s father was David Banning whose mother is Julie Olsen Williams. Her mother is Addie Horton. This doesn’t make Eli less a Horton than Will. He’s still a Horton. With your logic, you’re saying because the Horton relative that connects to Tom and Alice is a female, it makes someone less a Horton. Will’s connection is all male relatives. That sounds pretty sexist when you say Eli is family by an olive branch and Will’s family built the tree. It’s the same family! Bill Horton and Addie Horton were siblings.
I think you’re making a big to-do about nothing. And you’re reading more into the ornament situation than is there.
Most of the ornaments were not shown. I think it was enough that they explained that the ornaments survived.
I loved this episode. It was so sweet. I loved everyone sharing memories, I even like that Lucas was there. I was so happy to see that the ornaments survived. I know so many of us long time viewers were worried about the ornaments and now we know the tradition of the Horton ornaments can live on. I would also like to say that it was the perfect episode to dedicate to Bill Hayes’s memory. Just a beautiful show. And I liked that the story Leo told made sense. Glad to see they are finally making the Spectator the great paper it was under Jack and Jennifer.
All I can tell you is this has a lot to do with audio production. They did a bad job on it, but it wasn’t awful. I actually liked the song, I liked the lyrics, and hopefully we’ll see more of his talent on the show, but with better audio production.
I think they had him record it then lip sync it. That was a bad move on production because I liked the song, but it did have a weird sound. Carson Boatman has a very good voice and they should have let him sing that live, not dubbed over.
I don’t remember what Konstantin said was the name of the dish. I also can’t believe Maggie being married to Victor for so long had never had the dish. I’m ready for episodes with the real writers because Days seems to have scraped the bottom of the barrel for these writers.
Sorry, but nobody gets your point. You’re comparing mostly living people whose characters died to real humans who died. It really doesn’t matter how the characters come to an ending, as long as we don’t just have them disappear. I still think with SSH being on the show, Doug’s death will be dignified. As for John Aniston, I wasn’t upset that they had him die in a plane crash. That made it seem like Victor was full of vim and vigor when he died. None of us had to have a long drawn out illness when in real life John Aniston was dead. I’m just glad we didn’t have him out of town or resting in his room for years. One character that I didn’t like the death of, was Stefano. That was absolutely awful how we had him on the run for years. Then when we finally get his “death,” they supposedly got all of his memories and personality on a flash drive implanted in Steve’s head. Talk about a crappy storyline. They should have respectfully let Joe Mascolo’s character die instead of the sci-fi crap they gave us.
