I'm sure some of the current story line directions will be changed, but I don't think everything we're seeing is going to be thrown out. I believe NBC has been directing and approving story, but they were very unhappy with the pacing. That may be why we're getting what feels like such a rush job on some of them.
I'm not sure what I think they will do, but we do know that Tomlin wanted to make everything a dream...which leads me to believe it's all going to change as soon as he can make it work without doing a dream. It only took MarDar a month to do that.

I believe Tomlin's intent may have been to wipe everything out and go back to stories which he likes, but NBC has their own ideas. I guess we'll soon see who prevailed.

I assume GT will go back as quickly as possible to the characters and the kind of stories he oversaw for years, especially since he wanted to make MarDar's tenure a dream. So basically, we will see stories centered around how epic Safe's love is, how EJ's sole reason for existence is to terrorize Sami, how Melanie has the glitteriest hoo-ha in town, and how Daniel's penis is like a siren's call to all women. These stories will include events like cutting out people's hearts, kiddie eye cancer and setting fire to your husband. And the stories will star the characters of Sami the heroine, Rafe the perfect, Nicole the pathetic, Brady the drunk, Lucas the non-existent, Melanie the adorable, Daniel the irresistable, and EJ the greasy villain.

CAN. NOT. WAIT.

It's definitely possible. I just have a hard time believing they'd bring him back in the first place if they didn't already have similar ideas. I could see them turning down a dream idea, because those are widely mocked. I think it's just a matter of time before we're smack dab back in the middle of early 2011. And in case anyone is confused, I don't think that's a good thing.

ust as long as we get no more of this nonsense going on this week. The only thing I will watch is Will telling his parents Ej is still black mailing him and the Ejole scene. Thats its for me. The rest of it, nope. Its sad bc I have taken the show off my dvr and only watch for certain scenes I will like.
Thats what they get for forcing Ej and Sami and DICK ole on us.

I can't figure out whether to like or dislike...

But I agree.

I just cannot fathom being pregnant and having sex with another man. Even for a healthy pregnancy I would think the risk of getting an STD and passing it to the baby would kill the mood.

I wouldn't hold my breath for this. Remember, Tomlin is the one who told BD Lucas would always lose in love & then promptly wrote him off to Hong Kong.

I agree with tomsawyer as to how Tomlin's Days will look. The only saving grace will be if the two (I forget their names) suits from NBC have some ideas of their own they're going to push. This could be why we keep thinking there is some push & pull going on behind the scenes. Their ideas & Tomlin's aren't meshing.

The bad thing about that is that it's been almost three months, and it doesn't sound like it's been resolved yet. We may be in for a lot of back and forth. Or you know...the same crap writing as MarDar.

I don't think TomSell are going to change everything going on right now "fix" things and go in opposite directions. Some things will change, some will suck worse than they did before. I'm not hanging all my hopes on new/old writers who were fired a year ago for driving the show over a cliff. So who's in charge at Days anyway? Nobody seems to know. Whoever that person is gets to decide what we want to see. I doubt GT has autonomy over the storylines. I'd good money he doesn't.

Quoting limited to 4 levels deep
Before.
It had to be just after. It was a few days after MarDar were fired that the cast and crew were tweeting about filming memorials and sad scenes about Lexie. ETA: or happening at around the same time if we're talking about the things that are literally on tv this week, and not for the spoiled week.
Yeah. I think we're right on top of their firing. Which is also why I think this stiffing is going to be scrapped or at least they're going to try. This is what TomSell wanted to make a dream.
I think some changes and minimization are a given whenever the writing staff changes. Does anyone know how long it takes from the head writer mapping out the week to the scripts being handed out? By the time this stuff airs, we should be a week into TomSell's take over. I would imagine they would have had the chance to start doing a bit of what they would consider damage control at that point. We do know they had some Kiriakis scenes inserted. I wonder if the Justin scenes that aired this week were among them.

I'm not having anything forced on me. Some of it I like, some I don't which isn't unusual.
