Just finished watching Days & 2 things kept popping into my head
No offense to anyone with any issues.

1. Is Dena possibly bipolar & is Summer based on Dena ?

2. Is the girl Joey met in the park today ( Jade? ) Ava's daughter?
For some reason I got that vibe today .

I missed the first half due to audio issues, but I'm kind of thankful. The 2nd half was not good today. I was not a fan of any of it really. And JT as Roman is just awful. When he yells, he sounds like a total idiot. Just bad acting. Kayla basically stomping into Ava's room was not good either, and I love Kayla. Theresa's whining was just annoying, and I don't care about Summer.

The entire episode (the 2nd half at least) was just ... ugh.

I totally had that thought today, too, that Jade could be Ava's daughter.

I don't know Maggie's history.. what was wrong with her that she couldn't care for a baby and gave it up for adoption? Did Maggie ever mention giving a baby away in all her time on the show?
Well, when Marty (aka Mickey with amnesia) ended up at Maggie's farm, she was crippled and single. She and Mickey married, but he was sterile so they couldn't have kids. A big part of Maggie's story back in the day was how badly she wanted a child. She and Mickey adopted Melissa. They had Janice as their ward. And, eventually, Maggie decided to be a surrogate so "she could experience pregnancy and having a child." That child was Sarah (originally believed to be fathered by Evan whatshisname, but revealed to be Neil Curtis's kid later).

So, no, Maggie never mentioned giving up a child before she met Mickey. And her whole "I want to experience pregnancy" think doesn't really work if she had actually been pregnant at some point in time. So, assuming Bummer is a child Maggie had before she met Mickey and Maggie gave her up for adoption, then it's an even harder sell than John's fling with Tori that produced Paul.
What I don't understand is if she is Maggie's daughter and she gave her up for adoption, why didn't Maggie ever go looking for her.

Yes. That would be a question.

I got the vibe that Summer is bipolar too. She went from trying to drown herself in the ocean to having a cocktail and playing darts then all of a sudden she took her meds and was drinking coffee.

Remember how "Carly Manning" became an intricate character on Days back in 1990.

Carly was found on a beach by Justin and Adrienne while they were on their 2nd honeymoon in Tahiti. She came to Salem, courtesy of J & A and was pushed down our throats with front burner stories with DANIEL and Melanie plus just about half of the other characters on the show. It was "Days of Carly", for a long, long time, if I remember it correctly.

A taste of what to come with "Summer"? I guess we will just have to wait and see.

Quoting limited to 3 levels deepThis
It`s either that or a REALLY bad case of amnesia.
:blulaugh: So Maggie had amnesia when she met amnesiac Mickey/Marty (but either forgot she had it, or never mentioned it to him or anyone else). :drunk: I suppose they think those of us who watched Maggie in the 70s and 80s are either dead or senile (and not in the key demographics).
They should realize that there is a ton of Days history on the internet and fans who weren't even alive in the 70s or 80s could know all about that time period. Which brings me to my complaint - there is more information about Days online than there is for any other soap. How hard is it to run a search before writing a story?

It's a long running show, so they do change little things here and there, but you don't change an established character's core backstory. Maybe next Marlena can tell everyone what it's like to be an only child, or Victor can teach Claire about his strong Italian roots.

Okay my theory regarding Summer.
She said her adoptive parents said her birth mom gave her up, I think they lied to her.
I think she is another of Maggie's egg babies & like Daniel was. Victor & his butler had a scene once
where they talked about Maggie finding something out regarding the egg baby thing.
I think it was some black market baby sale stuff.

A fun... or not so fun fact. According to my counting, so far Daniel Jonas' name has been mentioned 203 times in this year's episodes... you can freely dislike this post. :D

EDIT: Whereas Daniel has been mentioned 203 times, Bo has been mentioned nine times and Will only once this year. Still, I doubt Bo and Will together were mentioned as many times last year as Daniel has been mentioned this year.

Just an FYI: Dan or Daniel is mentioned 27 times..... :drunk:


203 + today's 27 = 230 mentions.

They replaced Daniel with SleazySurgeon Fynn AND MaggieUnknownChild Summer,
while still mentioning Daniel 230 times.

:facepalm:

Are we supposed to root for Thrady?
Because..... just like before their great love blossomed Brady seems to not give a s... about Theresa.
And Theresa screaming/whining/crying about a pretty fit Brady (who's happily playing darts with Summer btw) to Nicole who lost his fiance was disgusting. Should we feel sorry for Theresa because she is jealous Brady is talking to some woman, crazy or not?

And yes, Theresa, before you decide to save someone ask them to show their medical files to see if they aren't mentally ill because it's really important.

An annoying episode overall.

Thoughts I had today while watching this dreck...

* Dear god, how many times are we going to hear about Daniel? Also, how many storylines is he in now that he's dead?

* Oh, good. More potential eggs story for Maggie. :rolleyes:

* When I said "#FreeNicole," I didn't mean so she could pursue Melanie's sloppy seconds. BUT, if we have to go that direction, can we please have a moment where Nicole tells Melanie that Melanie's ex is better in bed than Melanie's dad. Let's really display how ridiculous that situation would be.

* [Summer and Brady drinking coffee out of those white and green mugs] I need to check on those antique tea cups I was bidding on on Ebay.

I honestly hope she's not bipolar. Bipolar disorder is such a complicated condition, IMO, and I feel like the writing at Days just isn't at a high enough level to deal with that.

I also hope Jade isn't Ava's daughter. There is more to the Johnson history than things related to Ava.

The year isn't relevant. Marie Wilson is playing older than Shawn Christian and Lisa Trusel which isn't the slightest bit believable.
Was it actually stated that Summer is older than Melissa in this episode? Because Melissa was actually born in '71. So Summer might actually be younger than Melissa. The Daniel thing is still the same though. All of it is dumb and unnecessary.
Melissa was "born" in 1971 and Hope in 1974. But Melissa became younger than Hope when Lisa Trusel and Kristian Alfonso took over the roles. Melissa aside, Summer would be older than Hope. Addie was pregnant with Hope when Maggie met Mickey.
Brady thought the woman in his dreams (Summer) was 30-35. It was noted in his notebook and he said it to Dario, I think. It likely means the show is seeing the character in this age range.

I'm on your side about this whole mess, but chronologically, Melissa didn't become part of Mickey and Maggie's life until Lisa Trusel took over the part in 1983, which happened after Sarah was born. Just a quick fix up.

Carry on.

I really hope Jade isn't Ava's but there was a resemblance
* I could see Dena going there. :drunk:
