Even w/o Paul, Brady probably wouldn't be there for his parents. He's isolated in Braniel/Summer crap.
I hate that Brady isn't involved in this story with John. It sometimes is hard to believe that Brady is John Blacks son. John would be so suspicious of Summer yet Brady is completely clueless.
This is one of the things that frustrates me about DAYS. They haven't built up a younger set to take over adventure storylines. Those were my favorite stories I think. Of course DAYS didn't make the ISA as important as the WSB was on GH, but that is something I think GH does better. They have involved at least to a certain extent the younger set in the parent's adventure stories. Robin was a doctor, but was still involved when Anna and Robert came back briefly several years ago. And when Luke and Laura had a brief adventure when TG left Lucky and Lulu were involved. You don't even have to make the younger actors secret agents to involve them in the stories, but I would prefer they did that to a degree. I was actually thinking about this because I keep seeing all these vets doing adventure stories on DAYS and I think WTF? Why would anyone want to see that? But then I think if it were reversed and we were looking at GH I would definitely want to see Anna and Robert in an adventure story, but the difference is that it isn't JUST about Anna and Robert. It does involve the younger characters. At least to a certain extent. I just really want to see something that DAYS will never give me. It's like a craving that will never get satisfied. I love all the secret agent stuff, but I don't want to see another John and Marlena story. I think it's time to move on and bring in some fresh blood. And that is what I think is really wrong with DAYS. They go to one extreme or another. It's either all vets all the time or get rid of them all. I still want them around, but I don't want them to drive story. Neither do I want them to bring on completely new characters that I have no connections to. They have plenty of legacy characters that they could use for this - JJ, Eric, Brady, Shawn - just to name a few. I think the 80s adventure stories were successful for a reason, but you can't replicate that with recycled vet stories. I think they need to take the legacy characters they have and create some adventure around those characters. It really isn't that hard. They are just too stupid to do it. I really never understood why they didn't try the spy route with Brady. His professional life has been a mess forever and it could be a cool story to see him try to do something they established his father (and most of his dad's friends) as being good at. Could even tie it into Shane being such a big shot in the ISA
I mean they've made Shawn a cop at last but I feel like we never see him. This show has failed with the younger characters a lot which is usually why they resort to the vets when they come up with these save Days concepts.

For fucks sake. Paul? WTF does he have to do with any of this? Why throw him into the mix? When is this ever going to be about John and Marlena? He can go and be bewildered about something else off screen. Don't care. :blink: Maybe because he's John's son?
And at least Paul is trying to help out his family; unlike that other dimwit Brady that is all tied up in this Summer crap story. It should be Brady, which tells me the writers are clueless.

I got the feeling that at one point in time they decided they didn't have a budget for adventure stuff. But they still seem not to find any alternatives - Days' business stories are a joke most of the time, as is their police stuff.

No, Paul is a good fit for this storyline and it's about time they utilize him if they aren't going to fire him. Brady is worthless and I'm so happy that he seems to have no role in this storyline. There's about 80 reasons why he doesn't fit into this story and his bum heart is somewhere at the top.

It should be Brady, which tells me the writers are clueless. Exactly. And Belle and Eric should be involved too.

Only it's not Brady's fault. It's the stupidity of the writing. Maybe they would have involved Brady or/and Belle in this story if they hadn't had John's reckoned -son Paul without a story. I think the actor is talented but it was a big mistake to make him John's son with Tori. I wish TPTB would be more careful about rewriting the history. It's not unheard of in soaps, but it must make sense and they have to know why they need to do it, how it will affect their future stories. Otherwise it only makes their long-time viewers angry.

There's about 80 reasons why he doesn't fit into this story and his bum heart is somewhere at the top. I'm still hoping someone they decide to not tell Brady what's happening because of his heart. This way I won't totally hate him when he's hanging around Maggie and Summer the whole time this is happening

I don't want him to disappear - I just want the son thing to have been a mistake. I'd rather see him in storylines with people his own age than tagging John around all the time.
All the time? We must be watching two different shows. Paul and John haven't had a scene together in I don't know how long? In fact, Paul has been on like twice since new years. He was on recently. I didn't mind him at all because he was doing his own thing and not in John's orbit. Not that John has an orbit LOL

Actress Alla Korot, who is said to play the role of Janet Bernhard. The actress hinted she is in a "Summer not as in season storyline". She started taping on January 4th.
She tweeted that her character name is Janet Bernard (not Bernhard). Regardless, we don't know if that's her character's real name or if it's an alias of the character.

There's about 80 reasons why he doesn't fit into this story and his bum heart is somewhere at the top. I don't see how Paul is a good fit. Seems like they're just throwing him in to give him something to do. He never would be involved if he wasn't John's son. That's the only reason they threw him into this. They probably think it's super clever and shocking. :rolleyes:

I was wondering if J&M get mixed up in this later on. Which sucks because I hate the Summer story but it seemed there were Marlena Theresa scenes coming and Alla posted that picture with Drake and she said she was in the Summer story. Maybe he's smart enough to realize this is a scam. Theresa also won't get help from anyone on this. Brady's a moron and Maggie will think summer's her daughter. So maybe Theresa drags them into it But yes, Brady couldn't we written less like John's son. (Although for some reason this reminds me a little of John instantly trusting Greta and Marlena hating it thinking she was involved with Stefano)
John in the 90s (with Kristen/Susan) wasn't especially smart either. How could he even imagine Kristen would wear THAT outfit for her wedding lol. John was brainless all the while he was with Kristen. But unlike Brady at least he was noble.

I actually thought about this last night and I think Paul has seen John and Marlena three times since August. The last was Thanksgiving lol
I thought Paul/John met once in early December to discuss Winterbourne stuff and that's when A got involved but it's been a long time, regardless. Paul was at the hospital with John when Brady and Eric were in the accident.

I really can't believe the amount of conversation about one spoiler line for Paul being bewildered. There's been like 7 spoilers about J&M and this kidnapping (and probably more coming) so far somehow all were talking about is Paul literally existing lol

I hate that Brady isn't involved in this story with John. It sometimes is hard to believe that Brady is John Blacks son. John would be so suspicious of Summer yet Brady is completely clueless. John isn't without his clueless moments. I submit every storyline involving Kristen Dimera, both in the 90s and during the 2012-2013 arc.
