Watched it!! It was OK loved hearing Thaao talk about Joe and being the first DiMera, he's such a mellow person. I love him. Lauren had some great stuff too. But I found it a bit boring. loved her taking about Peck cause it made me realize that Austin Peck's Austin was much more warm and giving.. Patrick Muldoon's was a bit more detached, Peck's Austin was just more loving and a lot guidable LOL!! I wonder if Thaao was talking about Eileen Davidson... of course he didn't name names lol but he said big actress now and had a few issues with her...
I doubt he had issues with ED. She is featured in his book (the one about food). Not sure about the "big" comment but didn't he have issues with Ali? The Ali and Thaao thing i think is false Ali had scenes with Thaao at the 50th if she didn't like him she would of refused to do scenes with him right Ali is her own boss she won't work with someone that she doesn't like.

This is my reaction to this comment Posted Image I thought Thaao complained about a younger actress in his book who used to go to the producers / writers and make demands - which was widely rumoured to be Ali. I'm pretty sure no specific names were given in the book - I haven't read it myself.

Their ratings are stable but -given it's fall - nothing to write home about.
Being half a million down from this time last year is a disaster.
Getting rid of certain characters, is now a problem! Days should have kept them and our ratings would have been 1.70 up 1.90 now. Hopefully, with Eric back and other familiar faces, ratings will soar up! We still want to see Chandler M. back as Will Horton.

Correct! Alison can't tell what Days should be doing for her. If that was a case, she would not be in the 50th special. Plus would have left years ago. Have to say, Alison is loyal to this soap over her entire time. Has the best relationships with everyone!

I continue to find Thaao's comments disturbing. He caught himself this time, but there was another implication of putting an actress in her place after a scene by smacking her on the butt (or that's how it sounded to me) that I just...I cannot. I really wish someone would talk to him about the way he says these things, because I really don't think he intends them the way he comes across, but the more it happens, the less I'm inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt.
IDK who he was talking about, but it did seem a little like it might have been Ali. IDK. I would think if it were, he wouldn't be on the show, but the way he describes the person, coupled with his comments last time do make it sound like there might be an issue there, and I'm not sure who else he'd be referring to. However, he's clearly friends with Lauren and Kristian who are both friends with Ali, and if he were talking about Ali, I don't think that would be the case.

This could be entirely fabricated. But. I remember reading years ago that Corday started doing all these interviews after one of the regime changes/budget cuts, and it was part of a deal that minimized his role in the actual production of the show, but left him as the mouthpiece.
I can't remember if he didn't do much of this before that, though (and I think this would have been around 2008 or 2009). If I remember correctly, Corday constantly doing story preview interviews happened during the Hogan years, and continued on after. Hogan gave one interview, previewing the fall 2006. And I'm pretty sure that was it. He might've given the summer 2007 interview with whole vendetta storyline. I can't remember. It was mainly Corday though. I think we got one Higley interview where she gave previews in the summer 2008. After that, though, I think it was mainly Corday through the rest of Higley, MarDar and TomSell. We got Griffith giving one interview last year, but then it was Corday giving preview interviews again after that.

I don't think that's something she's allowed to do. TBH, if someone is smacking her ass and doing other things to make her uncomfortable (as he has referenced doing in other interviews) that is something she and any other actor on that set should be allowed to do. But we don't actually know if she was ever uncomfortable or even the target of any of that. That's not "diva" behavior like we've discussed before.

Hopefully, with Eric back and other familiar faces, ratings will soar up! We still want to see Chandler M. back as Will Horton. I think getting rid of popular characters is not necessarly what hurts the ratings. Soaps have seen a lot of characters come and go over the years and have survived. If you look at primetime hits like The Walking Dead (last night's episode was crazy!), they get rid of popular characters all the time and it doesn't hurt them. I think something that Days does wrong is killing off popular characters without giving the fans an interesting fallout to watch.
Fallout of Jack's death: next thing you know, Jennifer is pushed in a love triangle with Daniel and Nicole. Fallout of EJ's death: Sami moves to LA to shoot a movie and nobody finds out Clyde was involved. Fallout of Will's death: his closest relatives are off screen a couple of weeks later and he is barely mentioned for the next 9 months. Fallout of Bo's death: Hope kills Stefano and the story became about Rafe protecting her and the beginning of their romance. Fallout of Daniel's death: Brady gets his heart, finds Summer and brings her to Salem, now maybe Chloe carries his miracle baby with Nicole.
Basically, Days would probably do well in the ratings if the writers knew how to use those big deaths/exits as catalysts for interesting stories. But the past few regimes seemed unable to do that.

I think there's a chance of GT coming back if the show is renewed and they have to cut the costs. He is good at it.lol And, second, he has long history with NBC. He probably knows about KC's paranoia (I mean wikkileaks info) though lol. Who could be other people NBC would trust with writing/producing a soap opera?
Ali and James NBC adored them make them the new writers Alison already a director on GH and Days and they tell James to get his writing pen out they know the show they been there for years and they have respect of their fellow actors they do a better job than Dena is doing she is a terrible writer anyone is better than her. :facepalm:

Agreed. Characters leaving and returning do nothing. A highly publicized return might help initially. But that usually dies down fast. It's the story that'll do it. Just the character of Eric returning isn't going to help the ratings. Eric returning in a good story will be what would help the ratings.

Have to disagree just say EJ,Bo and Jack came back you get all their fans back i think EJ have to come back with Sami through since most like him with her the most you telling me it make no difference to Days ratings the actors who played those characters had so many fans.

Fallout of Jack's death: next thing you know, Jennifer is pushed in a love triangle with Daniel and Nicole. Fallout of EJ's death: Sami moves to LA to shoot a movie and nobody finds out Clyde was involved. Fallout of Will's death: his closest relatives are off screen a couple of weeks later and he is barely mentioned for the next 9 months. Fallout of Bo's death: Hope kills Stefano and the story became about Rafe protecting her and the beginning of their romance. Fallout of Daniel's death: Brady gets his heart, finds Summer and brings her to Salem, now maybe Chloe carries his miracle baby with Nicole. Basically, Days would probably do well in the ratings if the writers knew how to use those big deaths/exits as catalysts for interesting stories. But the past few regimes seemed unable to do that.
Have to disagree just say EJ,Bo and Jack came back you get all their fans back i think EJ have to come back with Sami through since most like him with her the most you telling me it make no difference to Days ratings the actors who played those characters had so many fans. It's been proven over and over and over and over that this isn't true. So yes. We are telling you it makes no difference if the writing is not there.. There are usually temporary bumps, but it's not sustainable without a good story. There's year and years of evidence of this and absolutely no evidence that refutes it.
