Well, DAYS is a total clusterfuck shitshow right now, so these numbers aren't surprising. Sami's revenge story is all kinds of a hot fucking mess of steaming shit. I'm more than ready for that bitch to die a fiery death at any time now.
Well, that explains why you haven't been posting at the daily threads, lol. People have been missing you over there!

This show has been MUCH worse. I have almost erased everything from 2000 to 2012 specifically and that is coming from someone who has watched since 1995 and catched up on 80's through DVD edits and youtube (I'm only 27 years old).
I agree, 2007-2011 were pretty horrid. So was the majority of 2012.

That was a time when there were plenty of soaps. When they started being cancelled they got their act together. Now there are only 4. Days budget has been cut to a minimum. They can't afford to have numbers like this. NBC has added another talk show, so it seems to me that if this works well for them, they won't think twice of getting rid if Days. They need a turnaround now, but knowing what seems to be down the road, I'm not sure if there will be one. Chad and Melanie are not the answers.

I've been watching this show since my mom watched in the 1960s. There have been plenty of rough patches that I hated but I can honestly say the show is now unwatchable to me for the first time since the Melaswen mess. This is pathetic!

This show is a hot mess but I don't know that it's any worse than the scarf sniffing, double Rafe-ing, drugged up Carly, heart taken from chest Jennifer days of 2011.

this sounds like a missing line of the Patty Loveless song, "cold-dead beating, two-time double dealing, mean mistreating, loving heart"

I wanted to love this week.

Really really wanted to love this week was actively willing to want to love it.

And I didn't. It was just Meh. It could have been so much better.

I agree!! The writers are doing this Sami revenge story ALL wrong! They ruined Kristen's homecoming. They are boring us with the Eric and Nicole mess. I just want Nicole to pinch Eric's head off--I'm so sick of him---and his twin sister! I can't wait for Sami to leave town-and I would be fine with EJ staying and that's like the total opposite of what I wanted a year ago. The writers are just messed up, bless their hearts!

To me it's at the same level except that at least I have a vested interested in some if the characters still on the show now. Back then there were few I cared about and the ones I did care were written OOC so there was that

Careful what you wish for Matt! Cause no sooner is Sami going to exit stage left when a dreadfully ill wind is going to blow Melanie back into town. Cause for reasons that mystify TIIC find the Jonas Eggbaby fam to be the gift that keeps on giving. Man oh man do I hope the ratings TANK her first few weeks back.

Well, that explains why you haven't been posting at the daily threads, lol. People have been missing you over there!
There has been zero storyline consistency since last fall. Not a single story has made sense, been true to character, or had any audience engagement or satisfaction. They change character motive and direction on a daily basis. Even characters I don't particularly care about are acting like utter pod people with no sign of the characters I gave watched for years. Kate takes on Stefano over RAFE? Sami let's Abby get the last word in a confrontation about EJ? EJ bones Abby after giving up everything for Sami a few months earlier? Nicole? Jennifer? The list goes on. The show sucks complete and total ass and it deserves these ratings and worse. I've watched since 1982 and with the exception of some JER bullshit - I can't ever remember it being so terribly written and untrue to the characters.

IMO it's pretty well on its way to getting there if they keep up this pace.

For me even though there's more characters on canvas now I care about, they are so unrecognizable it's too painful to watch. Case in point, John and Marlena. Given how close John was to Shane and Kim during his Commander Roman days in the 1980's there's no way in hell he'd ever call their daughter a whore. And there's also no way in hell Marlena would ever play a sex tape in a church, let alone during a wedding.
