Days of our Lives - Thursday, December 5, 2024

[Daysdegrassi]

Thanks for the write-up.

I wish this young Doug dude wouldn't be either an imposter or a thief. I'm just not interested in yet another sleazy new character, after we had Sloan, Talia, and Cat. Enough is enough. Make it something more interesting.

Speaking of, there were definitely interesting interactions and conversations today between a number of characters, and I liked the throwback to JJ's pot donuts. It was a decent show overall.

I think Joy is on her way out (thanks to EJ). I'm thinking he will be Holly's older bad boy when Tate is inevitably going to ultrasound appointments with Sophia.

Xander says because they both know the court of public opinion matters more than actual court in Salem.

 

[brisbydog]

He didn't actually say that @soapnut. I was just thinking it. But it is true.

I'm thinking Lucas generally meant he was a young man, not specifying he was a teenager. Young Dougie looks like he's probably in his early 20s.

Peyton Meyer (Dougie) is 26.

I read that he is married and has a son born in 2022 plus is a stepfather to his wife's son.

Heck, actor Ashton Kutcher was 25 when he married Demi Moore and became stepfather to her 3 teen daughters with Bruce Willis.

Thanks, brisbydog.

I'm going with Hope and calling the new guy, Dougie.

I'm glad Hope is suspicious of Dougie and wants Jennifer look into his background. Hopefully, there
is a picture of him, if there is a grandson.

Good for Jennifer bringing up fake Abby because she didn't believe her when other people did.

Poor Steven. He's not in town and everyone thinks he stole the necklace. Then Lucas mentioned
that in front of Dougie. Now Dougie will probably keep the necklace.

I enjoyed the scenes with Belle and Marlena. Belle called Claire "Claire Bear".

Dishonesty, bad judgment, and lack of manners were all front and center today. Fraudster Shaggy was promoting his forged letter like it was one of the New Testament gospels. Then there was foolish Stephanie eating up Shaggy’s b/s with a fork and spoon. Finally there was Hope’s rude treatment of would-be necklace thief Doug Williams III for daring to have the same name as her father and Lucas who continued his tirade against Steven despite the fact that there isn’t a shred of evidence to support his accusations. If Leo was still writing his column, he’d have plenty of material.

Shawn is Victor's grandson, Philip is his uncle.

And if Bo Brady was awake, he'd be the rightful heir based on tradition as Victor's eldest son. (Excluding what's stated in Victor's will and the forged letter that Philip has.)

I hope Ciara changes her outfit soon.

My mother saw part of the funeral and she said that Ciara should have worn a dress with a higher neckline. She thought that Ciara shouldn't be showing cleavage at a funeral.

 

[oldschool]

I thought Lucas was about to have the Salem brain over Dougie but that look only lasted a second and it was over.

The one thing I thought of today was Holly and Tate could just never return to the screen and I'd barely notice or care. If they ever need to get rid of characters again just rest them for a couple of weeks and forget to bring them back.

 

[Just Samantha]

B&B does that. Sometimes they send them off to the "Paris office" and other times, they just move on to a different story and there's no explanation as to where so-and-so went.

 

[brisbydog]

And if Bo Brady was awake, he'd be the rightful heir based on tradition as Victor's eldest son. (Excluding what's stated in Victor's will and the forged letter that Philip has.)

Except Bo didn't want any of it

 

[JasonDíSpeech]

And if Bo Brady was awake, he'd be the rightful heir based on tradition as Victor's eldest son.

He was illegitimate, so based on "tradition," Philip would be Victor's heir.

 

[brisbydog]

Well technically Philip wasn't legitimate either as Victor would not marry Kate until she produced a man child, and then Viv stole and carried the embryo anyway.

 

[Muzzaman]

And if Bo Brady was awake, he'd be the rightful heir based on tradition as Victor's eldest son. (Excluding what's stated in Victor's will and the forged letter that Philip has.)

I would love for Bo to wake up with Victor's ruthlessness, claim Titan, shake things up for a bit and see the Kiriakis side of him come out, then get back to the Bo we know.

 

[brisbydog]

He did that last year though. It wasn't great

 

[Muzzaman]

True but they could make him more ruthless, maybe play mind games with Shawn's guilt over shooting him, other actions could result in Xander, Philip, Alex, Justin having to group together to take him down.

I don't know, I think so much more could be done.

 

[brisbydog]

That I would enjoy.
