So rewrites happen on soaps.. a lot...! Sure, I hate this Maggie rewrite like any other.. but for the show to specifically say that Maggie had Summer when she was 17 is just insulting and deserves all the viewers to laugh and point and the stupidity and then turn off their TVs.

Because in what world can anyone believe that Suzanne Rogers could have given birth to Marie Wilson at 17?! Suzanne is 72 and Marie is 41.. even if you adjust their characters age somewhat it's not even close. It's not like they even look like they could pass off as a 17 year difference mother/daughter.

The only way they could be related is if Maggie's secret daughter whom she had at 17 had Summer at 17 and Summer is actually Maggie's granddaughter. That's the only possible explanation.

This is just embarrassing and I cannot believe that no one on the set made a comment about this.
The same world where a 43 year old is playing someone born in 1992. Same world where John, obsessed and in love with Kristen, has sex with a Japanese lady who never worked for Stefano. Same world where Maggie gives birth then becomes a virgin. Same world where Kristen and Sami both have sex with men they knew as babies. Same world where Ciara's birthday changes 3 times. It's Corday World..
To be fair, Corday's soap is not so much different from other soaps re: this aspect. All of them do the same.
I dunno, I only watch Y&R anymore, and I don't notice crazy stuff on there similar to what I mentioned, but I don't pay as close attention to that show.

It seems to me sometimes that soap critics aren't as tough on Days as they are on other shows because they expect Days to do asinine things so they let most of it pass. They have higher standards for the other shows.

Really? Soap "critics" have been pretty rough on Days lately...though I'm not actually sure who soap "critics" are. If you mean bloggers, they've been really hard on Days...despite how obvious it is that some aren't even watching I'm pretty sure every soap goes through the rewrite and SORASing issues. I didn't pay much attention to Y&R growing up, but I still remember when the kids that were my age one day and were adults the next. Days does get away with the more OTT stories a little easier, though, but that's not the kind of story this is.

Yeah, kind of meh today. Pretty surprised that of all the stories to play three days in a row this week, it's Brady/Theresa and Summer. There should be some kind of con happening here already to keep it interesting.

I liked the Chabby scenes -- although they needed to build more suspense in the teaser -- and I thought the love scene was pretty appropriate for a honeymoon. The song was *terrible.*

Maggie's not taking those Viagra pills for women is she?
I thought the prescription she was picking up was for Victor because he was sick. :shrug:
Me too since she actually SAID that - so I'm confused as well? :shrug:

Well, they rewrote her backstory, so maybe they rewrote her Rx as well? :rolleyes:

Apparently not all the cops are looking for John if Lani and Rafe are having a drink
Shawn is with Lani. Not RAFE.

Maybe Ben cut the negligee before they left Salem. It's a pretty good mystery.

I think he got into their room. They made it a point to say they were going out to eat when they could have easily ordered room service.
I think Abby did it herself and she's had a breakdown of sorts.

Deimos swapped out pills.
How did Deimos know she kept her pills in her purse? It's amazing he had much time to switch those pills.

$10 says he's got a treatment/cure for her MG.
Those pills he gave her are probably placebos. She will get worse and nobody will think her pills are fake.

Summer says Maggie was a 17 year old farm girl with problem with legs. And she's her mother.

So they officially rewrote Mickey and Maggie's love story
How old is Maggie supposed to be? If she was 17 when she gave birth to Summer and Summer is supposedly 35 or possibly 40, that would make Maggie around 52-57? She looks like she is upper 60's or possibly 70 to me.

I wonder if Summer stole someone else's DNA sample and is passing it off as her own.

I definitely think Summer is con and plant from Demois.. There has to be a big twist to make this interesting. I do think Demois will try to destroy Maggie as revenge to Victor.. And I like that!

I don't think she is lying. She can be delusional though (and believe she's Maggie's daughter).

My guess is Summer really thinks she is Maggie's kid but
Deimos is behind the altered DNA test . I wonder if Dario is
Involved in this with Deimos

Daniel's grave showed he was born in 1965 which
makes him 50 years old . So if he was born after Summer
Maggie has to be in her 70's

So wait... Maggie had a kid and kept it secret? Or she forgot? Even if it's a plot, there has to have been a pregnancy and birth at some point for Maggie to be upset, right?

Or is this another egg baby deal?

Either way, kinda fascinating this is their go to for integrating a new character. They should just use Marlena. For some reason her past feels more flexible to me, maybe because of the dimeras and all that.

Chad Abby and the baby were good.

The rest was just not.

Theresa must Not know how to shop. They never seem to have food in that place.
Why can`t Brady do the shopping? Isn`t he the one without a job?

They both have the same job....he was the one who was supposed to be resting from heart surgery though.
