This Stefano memorial is so dumb. Why are we doing this ten years after the last one? And after the show had so much fresh loss the last few years.

Vivian wasted on Gwen and stupid Dimitri. I cannot. This show stinks.

Xander’s man pain is so annoying. He’s so whiny and sounds like a child. It’s also not the actor’s strength. And Leo and Dimitri whining across town isn’t a good counterbalance.

The amount of people who found this untagged post and remembered watching John and Marlena is wild

It’s just no one cares about Stephanie and Gwen this much. Or Dimitri. Or Leo.

They’re going to waste Vivian Alamain on Gwen. They couldn’t bring her in for John’s funeral, but they can use her for Gwen and Dimitri.

Marlena has more kids and grandkids than anyone on the show and is pretty much completely isolated to her one biological child with John. What a joke. Meanwhile that child can’t get a story of her own.

They are trying so hard with Stephanie. This endless stalker story. The stupid books of hers. One relationship after another. Constantly throwing lame conflicts at her. I guess they don’t notice how annoying she is.

Decided Marlena couldn’t go to her great-grandson’s christening and then turned around and made sure there was time for her to see Cat Greene. They have to be trying to be this incompetent.

I just realized Jamey came out of the Days credits. Looks like it happened a week or two ago.

Absolute embarrassment from Days leaving Johnny’s side of the family out of yeh christening, but making sure Leo, Rafe and the Hernandezes are there. Total waste naming this baby after John when you follow it up with something like this.

Wait. Is no one at the christening from Johnny’s side of the family? For the baby named after John? But Leo is there…

They should just say some of the out-of-town kids decided to step up and handle Basic Black. It never should’ve been under Titan or DiMera to begin with. Carrie, Sami, Eric, Paul, Claire, Will, Allie, Sydney, Noah are all available off camera.

I never want these two back together with the way he acts and speaks to her. He’s so gross.

They named that baby after John just to write out his original namesake and the new namesake in one shot. But sure they’re honoring John and Drake.

The average age of this cast is going to be 60 at this point.

So they gut the younger cast? When there’s so much dead weight across the show. Unreal.

Remember when Ron got Brady away from Maggie and the Kiriakises and the majority of fans were thrilled. Way to undo all of that. Even worse to do it after losing John.

NuAri and NuJavi mean every Hernandez except Rafe will be a recast. Basically the DiMeras. It’s really a problem across the show for me. Way too many recasts, way too many retcons, way too many new characters.

Weekly reminder that Julie has a grandson living in Salem they refuse to use as a Horton or a Brady or a Kiriakis. Or at all. Julie/Jeremy doesn’t compare to Shawn D.

Leo/Javi/Dimitri and Stephanie and Alex’s engagement. That’s how they chose to start a new year. Doomed.

I’m getting the weirdest replies to soap tweets 😂

It’s just Kristen hasn’t cared about Peter in all the time she’s been back on screen. Over a decade. And I just can’t get into it with two recasts.

I just can’t believe that anyone at that show thought fans were clamoring for a ‘huge’ New Year’s Eve reveal of…Dimitri Von Leuschner. And for Leo and Javi’s wedding. Nor the fact that this writing team touted this as an amazing umbrella story that started at the anniversary.

I’m not here for Kate teaming up with Xander anymore then I’m OK with Marlena hanging out with him. Actual Kate would never forgive Xander for letting Will rot in prison for a crime Maggie committed. And for letting him believe he killed his mother-in-law.

It feels weird to say it, but I’m glad Marlena grieved as hard as she did today. But she should’ve been with her family. Ari being all Hernandez is ridiculous. Her grandfather (who isn’t usually around) and three great grandparents were on today. And it’s Christmas.

The non-contrived story that could have been if Shawn & Belle were trying to get back together (& Claire was here) but there was tension because his parents were on a beach in Hawaii while her mother struggled at Christmas for the sacrifice John made for Shawn’s father/Claire’s other grandfather

I’m really annoyed about the Shawn/Shelle erasure. And this is why it’s not safe off camera either because what even that Bo & Hope are on vacation without their kids/grandkids when he’s able to be with them for the first time in a decade. Just say they’re all together or they look super selfish

A known rapist reading the Christmas story at the hospital is so gross. I can’t even believe it. Way to ruin Tom’s legacy, Days

But like Julie has a legacy grandson in town that this show just does not care about. It’s wild.

I just knew they were going to get all these DiMera relationships wrong. Let’s invent family ties for the DiMeras instead of showcasing what fans actually watched. It’s bad enough it’s a bunch of recasts. Now we’re making up history.

Legit embarrassed they thought this DiMera thing was a real story. And even more so, that they thought this ‘reveal’ was something. Something they saved for Christmas week.

RSW sharing how much work he had this week and AK popping up all over Days SM is not a good sign for what’s going to air 328 months from now lol

What a sad set of Christmas spoilers. I can’t believe they really thought that the big Christmas week miracle should be a bunch of recast DiMeras.

This (and everything fun from the last regime) feels like a fever dream now lol

From RSW’s IG. Episode #14594- approximately October 12. And he spoiled Joy is back. She’s on the script lol

The last regime went out of their way to say that Marlena made sure Bayview’s messy incompetent policies were all cleaned up after she and John were trapped there. And now the place is just a clown show again.

So many recasts. And we’re supposed to care about this ‘family’

Can’t see family like Ari, Johnny, Tate or friends like Abe or Julie visit Marlena. But they can make sure we see Leo and Xander visit her. Unreal.

The 13yo’s class is singing Joy to the World in the Christmas pageant. This morning he told me we had to listen to it on the way to school. Apparently, they sang a version he didn’t know. Because he thinks the only (and correct!) version is Mariah Carey’s version 😂

Marlena’s life is falling apart and instead of her kids or grandkids coming to see her, she’s listing to Xander’s man pain. They can keep this show.

Idk but I guess I have to watch GV’s new role lol

I wonder if it’s going to cross Brady‘s mind that Marlena was vulnerable & Kristen & EJ coerced her into this. It’s really weird that he’s not addressing their part here. Also having Ari explain why she doesn’t like Leo in the same episode where Marlena is giggling with him makes her look terrible.

Meanwhile, I think the reason Chanel is getting pregnant l is because Sophia is going to come back & take that baby, the one named after John. Raven said something about a miracle & heartbreak coming up. And it would be just like this show to have John’s namesake living off camera with Sophia Choi.

I just…recast Peter with recast Kristen and recast EJ and retcon recast Chad and likely recast Lexie and nobody Dimitri is just not it. Like this is the family they decided to focus on?

Wait so they announced Peter is back and already gone. This show lol

Omg theories. Wtaf is wrong with my typing this week lol

I’ve seen some series floating around that all these DiMera siblings are being brought together because Peter is dying and needs something from one of them. And this is the only time that I will mention that biology does matter. Because he is not biologically related to anyone except Kristen

I just realized Xander the retcon Kiriakis is firing Brady from the company John created (on screen) for his family to work at. Leaving the guy who shot his wife and son in charge of Basic Black? They’re really killing it with John’s legacy.

As they bring in a third man for Stephanie’s stupid story, I’m thinking about how she spent multiple holidays at the Hortons boo-booing over Everett and Chad and how she couldn’t stand to be away from Chad’s precious children
