Ok, not only am I a American Idol addict, but I am a Days of Our Lives addict as well.

I haev beenwatching the show for over 20 yrs.......and have watched thru ups and downs, break up and etc.... but there is something going on right now that I just cant stand anymore........ Belle and Shawn........they NEED to get back together...I am going crazy!!! Mimi needs to tell them.....NOW! They almost had me today when she told all of them......but by their reactions I could tell she was just dreaming.....then I got sooooo MAD!!!

can anyone relate???
 
I stopped watching when I got out of college after watching since I was 2 months old with my grandmother. I use to love the drama but it got old. Also, I got turned off by all the young kids growing up over night. I work a 9-5 so I don''t have time for daytime drama. I''m sure there is someone for you to chat with though. Good luck.

I remember my mom religiously watching Days when I was growing up...she denies it but can tell you anything and everything about the characters. I watched it until Passions came out when I was in college. Then I had to get a J-O-B and couldn''t keep up with it as much as I would''ve liked. It''s hard to get back into a soap when you stop watching for a few months...actors change, characters die, come back, die, come back. I can''t keep up!

I always loved Bo and Hope until Kristin Alfonso (Hope) became Teri Hatcher scrawny. I remember when they first got married and she was all chubby cheeked and I thought she was beautiful--I was probably 6 or 7 then. She lost quite a bit of weight over the years and it bothers me to watch her now. Not that she is unattractive at all now, just such a drastic change.

I don''t know about Belle and Shawn...I think Mimi might be the "other woman." But then again I haven''t watched except a bit here and there maybe 3 times a year, so who knows!

I feel your pain, jetmal. When you get involved in caring about the characters you tend to worry about them as if they were your own friends!

oh yes, I agree with you on Hope...she has lost sooo much weight....but nothing in her boobs????? just proves they are fake,LOL. Anyway, her and Bo are on the outs, as their son Zack was killed by a hit and run driver, which is Chelse, Bo and Billies daughter from 18 yrs ago.....remember Billie was told that she was stillborn???? Anyways, Hope wont forgive Bo for signing for a temp license for Chelse(she was in driving school for driving wreckless) and letting her borrow his truck, with which she ran over her little half brother. So, my bet is that Bo and Billie will soon be getting back together.

Belle and Shawn are not together anymore....she is married to Phillip K., and they have a baby together...except the baby is really Shawns (long story), and Mimi knows and is contemplating telling the truth........but its taking forever!


I am a stay at home Mom, and that nap time....so as much as I dont want to watch it....I can resist!
 
ROFL...that would make me 10 yrs. old when Chelsea was born...and now she has become the hit and run killer of Bo and Hope''s son Zack...and Belle married a Kiriakis instead of a Brady...good God, what has the world come to in the land of Salem, lol!

So, then, I know Sami is still on the show (I saw her on Fear Factor a year or so ago), and she''s still crazy...what about Carrie and Austin?

I manage to catch a minute or two on the soap channel sometimes, but it''s never enough for me to get a whole storyline out of it. When I was in college my roommate had just purchased the 30 yr. anniversary hard-cover book on "Days."

I totally understand your being a stay-at-home and tuning in to relax and revive yourself, my mom was a SAH too, and would watch while she was folding laundry and stuff (I remember from when she''d pick me up from a.m. kindergarten). Wow, this brings back good memories!
 
I''ve watched DOOL since I was in diapers. I quit for awile during the whole stalker,everyone dead etc... when one day lasted 2 months. Then they went a year and everything moved along nicely until New Years Eve this year. My word, it lasted until last week then the next day was VDay!! Poor Zack was dead 6 weeks before they buried him!!!! So they seem to be dragging along again so I''ll probably loose patience- again.
As far as Bell and Shawn...no. Bell is a snivelling, spoiled bitch. I wish Shawn would stay w/Mimi.
And I LOVE Bonnie. She is a much needed breath of fresh air. And I wish Chelsea would mow down Kate with her car on her way out of town with Billie in tow!!
 
OMG! I watched that last night on SoapNEt. I was PISSED!!!! Did you see the episode where Shawn gave MIMI the HUGE bling??? I love how people on soaps get no less than 3 carats of bling.. no matter WHAT their financial situation! HOpe has HUGE bling and Bo''s a COP!
 
I used to watch that show but gave up after college. When the kids turned adults overnight it really bothered me - like, did they not think we''d notice they were 8 or 9 one moment and 16 the next? Also, the plots seem to drag on forever which really got me upset because I''m impatient by nature and can''t wait 3 months for something to happen in a storyline. Another thing was the long pondering gazes and facial expressions from John and Hope followed by a commercial, it seemed like they did that all the time.... Also I was always wondering is this a dream sequence or is this really happening??? Too much for me so I stopped watching. I know my mom still watches.

I hate to watch John and Hope''s faces too. It reminds me of the ''Friends'' episode where Joey learns the technique of ''Smell the Fart Acting'' from John on Days.

"Smell the Fart ACting" SOOOO true!
 
I used to watch it more so, but with going to the gym, going and doing flower deliveries or grocery shopping while kids are in school, I am usually not home until Passions is on. I used to love watching in DOOL while I did laundry, but the silly story lines have left me drawn and I get uncomfortable watching silly stuff. I used to like Passions more than i do now, so i save my watching for Oprah, Dr. Phil and Racheal Ray...I do like to catch a little of the soaps when I can, just not every day...I miss Mrs. Horton...she was great...

Mrs Horton is still there! She only makes appearances once in awhile, usually with a death in the family, or holidays......she doest walk well anymore, so she is only shown sittting down...

love that lady!
 
I''ve just about completely stopped watching it.. but maybe someone who continues to watch it and has been for many years can explain to me WTF is going on with that Alex guy.. He IS Roman, right?
 
no, he is not Roman anymore.....they are saying that Alex was a guy she dated in Med school, and she ended up marrying him after they finished school........then she lost her memory....fast forward she winds up with Roman and John years later.....

Now, what we know so far is that Alex really hates her, and wants her dead....why??? we dont know yet. So,right now he is busy trying to gain her trust,etc.....so he can go in for the kill soon. And John has his doubts so he is trying to expose Alex.


They must just be using the old footage of him as Roman, and saying that he was her very first husband...kind of lame.

Another tiresome plot......

Agreed! I actually used to think Belle was the best, and then they switched actresses...I miss Kristen Storm, I think her name was?

I attempt to keep up with the story lines, but not very successfully...its hard to sit down and watch after a day at work...I also used to watch Passions and then that just got to be too much for me. I keep saying I''ll completely give up Days, but I doubt I ever will...I''ll always be curious, but I definitely take leaves of absense during the absolutely absurd times...like the salem stalker stuff.

Right now my main question has been...did Jack actually die or not haha...like the last time I saw him he was looking in a window of their house at Jen, but then, that''s been in, so I don''t know if he''s supposed to come back and more is to happen or if that is the end of him.

It annoys me that kids grow up so quickly, but it happens on every soap, so I guess I''ll just have to deal with it. But like I swear Abbey and CHelsea went from 6 to 15 to 18 in a matter of episodes.
 
no, Jacks not dead.....just pretended to die suddenly so jennifer would not have to see him die a slow, painful death due to his terminal illness.

My bet is that her and Frankie will get together like Jack wanted......only, in a few years, Jack will have miracoulsy beated his illness, he'll come back and want Jennifer back, there is another long drawn out story line.....
 
Really now, does ANYONE ever die in Salem?

yeah, LMAO.....I''m still waiting for Stefano to come back for the umteenth time :)
 
There is an internet rumer that Alex North is Stefano!

whooolllllyyyyy mooooooolllllleeeeeyyyy! I never thought of that one!!!

I guess it could be true!
 
Especially considering that now Alex used to be Roman, and now Roman used to be Chris Koschek(sp?) and Bonnie used to be Adrianne.....
