November Sweeps preview

So Ron is actually giving the previews? That's awesome. I like the writer giving the previews more so than Corday.

I'm open to Lucas and Chloe Part 2. I love what Ron said about Lucas being better outside of a pairing with Adrienne. I've been saying that for 3 years now.

The Eve/Deimos marriage sounds completely out of left field. Random as hell. Sounds like something Ron threw together to give Eve some power in Salem upon her return. And ties to the current canvas. Eh. I'm not liking it, but Ron usually knows what he's doing, and I think the fact that it's KDP will help ease the WTFery of it all.

To be honest, I think I would've much rather enjoyed Eve in Chloe's position at Doug's Place with Julie. Don't get me wrong. I love Chloe being involved in the night club. She and Julie are one of the brightest things to come out of Ron's writing. I just think Eve would've been a better fit, considering she has actual history with Julie. And it sounds better than this marriage BS.

Kate vs. Steve and Kayla has me intrigued. I wonder who could be going after Kate and have ties to Steve and Kayla as well. I'd love for it to be Stephanie, but bringing her back would just be too logical for this show.

Abigail/Chad/Gabi is another thing I'm willing to give a chance under Ron's pen. I think taking them out of each others orbits was a good move. One of the first things I'm going to need Ron to do, for this to work for me, is set up Abigail and Gabi as real rivals. No more of this friends bullshit, and one feeling awful for the other. I want them to hate each other. Ron writes female rivalries very well. I hope this is one he's setting up.

The JJ story is one I'm really looking forward to. Any other writer on DAYS would have me worried about doing a story like this. I think Ron will do it well, and it'll really give characters like Abe, Valerie and Hope interesting roles to play. Hell, I hope Roman's involved as well. I think the entire dynamic of the older crowd could be interesting with this kind of story.

Outside of whatever puts Kate at odds with Steve and Kayla, I couldn't care less about the DiMera business drama if I tried. The same thing can be said about Eric and Jennifer and Theo/Claire/Tripp.

I am open to see how this all plays out.....but..

These are my issues..
I wanted Deimos to be gone & Dena H wrote such a ridiculous storyline about him & the K family. What I am seeing is that Eve is coming back as Deimo's wife and we are right back at the same sort of ridiculous storyline that was ended. It will be Eve taking over the K mansion (much like Deimos) and Victor, Maggie & Brady plotting against her. With the predictable tryst between Brady & Eve.

I wanted Gabi out of Chad & Abby's storyline. I wanted Kate & Andre done, I wanted Kate & Gabi to never ever have storyline again. But RC decided that Gabi needed to be back in the mix with Chad/Abby & Kate....

I wanted to no longer deal with a triangle that dealt with Claire & Theo, but somehow RC has created another one.

For me Chad/Abby/Gabi and Kate was an epic fail, yet RC is returning to it.
For me Victor/Maggie/Brady & Deimos was an epic fail, yet RC is returning to it via EVe.

Lastly, Claire & Theo were and epic triangle fail & once again RC is returning to it.

Not sure what else to say, when the dust settles we will be back with Sonny & Paul and a side of Will.

Jennifer & Eric will be back to flirty friends.. Hope & Rafe will still have drama at the SPD.

I guess the only real change will be Lucas and perhaps Lucas & Chloe, thankfully she will have escaped A Deimos storyline. And JJ upcoming storyline.

A few things. We know theo leaves so I don’t expect a real triangle for Claire Theo Tripp. He’s probably unconscious for most of it.

I really don’t think we end up with PaulSon. At all.

I also think for the two big stories- Memphis and the shooting- it’s super vague.
I don't think we'll get a triangle. I think we'll see Tripp be supportive and Claire lean on him. They grow closer, but she's loyal to Theo. Ciara returns and she and Tripp probably clash, but secretly develop feelings for each other. Tripp is still hung up on Claire but decides its a lost cause and hooks up with Ciara. Then Theo leaves and Claire is suddenly free. There's your triangle. :)

Steve, Kayla and Kate?

I guess anything to have them interact with other cast members but why does it have to be Kate

Honestly, it all sounds so vague to me that I'm just going to watch and wait and see what happens with everything.

(Although the Eve being married to Deimos thing is a real head-scratcher.)

And that horrible DE stuff. I hope ron makes it more interesting because Kate when she’s with DE is the absolute worst.

Eve and Deimos were married? Talk about pulling an idea out of your ass.

I hate that all these non-Kiriakises have some kind of connection to Deimos, who didn’t even exist two years ago. He and Chloe hooked up. Nicole looked like Helena. Eve was married to him. There better never be an egg baby.

Hate the idea of Luloe 2.0 and Brady/Eve. Don't understand why the show won't give Brady and Chloe a chance. :shrug:

That said, I am looking forward to Will and JJ's storyline. :popcorn:

I think he didn't spoil everything. IMO his ideas look better onscreen than on paper (even though usually it's otherwise). JMO

I liked Lucas and Chloe 1.0 until the tan man just had to have her. It would be nice for Lucas to have someone who loves him and no one else.

I HATE Gabi being back with Chabby. Chabby is horrible but the three of them the first time around was more than enough. Who thought this was a good idea????

Hope Eve being back does not mean Naggie and her lap dog every day on my screen. Craptastic thought.

The Will stuff, the search for Will, Susan and whoever might be lurking around is what really interests me.

All in all it looks rather weak.

I think it’s the focus on certain characters that bothers me the most, like Gabi. Wtf does she bring to the canvas?

As long as this is not a triangle with Chabby and Gabi then good. If it is, what was the point of reuniting Chabby?

I'm not happy about Gabi being back with Chabby. Let her move on with Eli this makes no sense. I mean if this just a business thing maybe it won't be so bad. It's just unnecessary.

I want her to have own story damn it! :flipoff:

Even without her romantic involvement it’s her mere presence that annoys me, much like Rafe and the fact that they don’t allow Abby to be upset about her. That she sweeps it under the carpet is what pisses me iff. There should have been repercussions from Gabis involvement the first time around and they failed to see that side of the story through. It’s all just so boring.

I think he's focusing on the little stories in this preview because he doesn't want to give away the twists of the big stories but I'm still disappointed by the little stories he's teasing, they don't excite me.

I think it’s pretty obvious that her current role is to be angst for a couple that apparently needs some kind of interloper angst. If the goal is to create an actual rivalry with Abby and Gabi, I am all for it.
