I am totally against the fire Tomlin campaign when NONE of his work is even being aired. Yes he was EP and made story decisions in the past, but I have to be optimistic that one can learn from the past and move forward with better decisions. I would hope that there is real energy being put into saving Days. None of these people want the show to be cancelled. Tomlin was a huge part in Days being renewed. I want Days on the air and I think this 'the sky is falling' mentality from viewers is going to do more harm than good. We should be supporting the show and vocal about what we like and don't like, but bringing out the pitch forks and torches against Tomlin this early, to me, seems counterproductive. I think it makes the campaigners look close-minded and unreasonable and therefore not to be taken seriously. That's just my opinion. |

Dannifer 2.0 is enough to make me think that Tomlin will not have learned his lesson. KA and PR's distinct lack of enthusiasm makes me think that Tomlin will not have learned his lesson. Not only do I want him gone, I wish I had started as soon as it was announced that he'd be back. The show may save itself from being canceled by turning into cheap crap, but that's a pretty miserable way to eventually go out (and it eventually will, it's just a matter of time). |

This is why I'm conflicted, too. That three month period period between filming and airing could be the death of this show. Hopefully the issue was Dena, but if wasn't and this nearly same set of people puts Days even deeper in the hole that they helped dig a couple of years ago, then what? |

I am close-minded and unreasonable. I don't care if his material is amazing. I want him connected to this show in NO WAY. I don't even want him building sets or taking out the trash. |

I don't think Tomlin deserves our trust. He was a big part of what was wrong with DAYS before and now he's back. I see no reason to expect his material to be good. Peter all but said it at the Brady Soiree according to the Q&A thread. Kristian didn't even spin it - and she always spins it. |

My sentiments exactly. I'm not one to support the show no matter what. The show sucks. Tomlin has shown himself to suck in the past. One of his first moves was firing Matt Ashford. I want Tomlin gone. |

I'm trying not to include the actors in my tweets. Though I just includes one, but that was more about snark... |

^Yeah, I'm thinking of just generally trying to put my opinion out there that Tomlin is a plague upon the show. |

Exactly they both said it all and Kristian is always positive even when given nothing. They know nothing is changing and will most likely only get worse. Part of me is starting to think that all NBC wants to do is kill the show and it will mostly likely go out a mess! |

Going to tweet @nbcdays about #NoDannifer #No2.0Dan&Jen. I won't say I want anyone fired. But I'd like to get it out there so they no how pissed I am, if they are in fact heading down this road. Another Horton Christmas with Daniel is unfathomable. Shoot me now! TIIC have lost their mind. |

I am just catching up on things and I'm disgusted that Days is going back to Dannifer again. However, I am not so sure we should campaign against Dannifer. It is been said many times that soap execs like when fans are against something because it shows they care about the show. Fans have some kind of feelings and emotions about Days. The worst thing for a show and a couple is when there is apathy and no one cares. So I think it is best to say nothing about Dannifer. Don't post in Dannifer related threads that you hate them. Just avoid all Dannifer related threads. Show Days and NBC there is no interest in Dannifer and that could be what gets Days to end the couple. |

The most effective way to campaign against Dannifer right now, is to campaign to get Matthew Ashford back. Then if he's back, people can campaign and provide buzz for JnJ to trump Dannifer. |

Sorry, not going to wait to express disappointment over the possibility of a ressurected Dannifer2.0. I will be polite with my digust, as I include #FireTomlin in the same tweet. Being nice, does seem to get us anywhere. |

Honestly though, positive or negative buzz is all the same for Days. Why else do you think they keep going back and forth with Lumi, Ejole, Safe and Ejami? Fans provide a ton of buzz when it comes to these pairs - either positive or negative... and for that reason, DAYS keeps playing it up with these couples. Do the same with Dannifer, and you'll give them a reason to invest in them. Saying nothing is the best thing to do right now. |

I think if they're getting complaints about all sorts of things Tomlin did, and not just Dannifer in specific, TPTB won't take it as a sign that Dannifer is stirring up a buzz. |

^Right, but not mentioning the dreaded couple at all might be good. Do talk about Matt Ashford. Reference Tomlin's crap substance free style in general. I think negative buzz will still be negative when it comes to #FireTomlin. I say sing that song at the top of our lungs. Edited by AHM, Jun 8 2012, 07:14 PM.
