DAYS OF OUR LIVES: Lucas Says Goodbye To Salem, While Julie Recalls Coming Back To Town

24
This is so sad. Why Lucas had to be written off the canvas is beyond me. He carried the show for a little while not too long ago. Sorry but I’m disgusted.
Tears flow easily whenever a “Horton” family member ornaments their place on the tree. that being said… it’s a dang shame… he’s been on the show upwards of 25 years ???? I daresay , it was the start of Ron Carlivati portrait of Lucas alcoholism AND not dealing with the death of Lucas and the aftermath of the reuniting of father and son… that cemented RC place back in daytime. yeah, it was Hattie and Bonnie that started his script. Bryan Datilo brought it home. His legion of fans both in and around this show means , he’s a big… Read more »
Someone posted that he’s returning in May. If that’s true he’s already started taping or will at the beginning of the new year.
He did great with the whole Baby Bonnie story. That was good. I really enjoyed it. Of course, I love Bonnie (Judy).
It was nice to see the old clips of Julie and her parents. And nice to celebrate Susan’s 50 years on Days. While I understand having Doug sing with the montage at the end, he should not do solos in the future.
It was sad to see Lucas go. Hopefully he’ll be back soon.
He is. He’s been back on-set filming already.
The old clips were of Julie’s grandparents, Momo. Seeing Tom and Alice way back then was nice, as was seeing Julie.
I thought Bill Hayes’ voice was mesmerizing, especially at 93 years of age.
He is actually a fine singer but being in his 90s things somewhat change…and those were her grandparents Tom and Alice and not her parents!!!!
My bad. You’re right—her grandparents.
As far as I am concerned, that beautiful white-haired 93 old man can do whatever the hell he wants. Considering he’s 18 yrs older than his wife, I think he’s aged wonderfully.
Oh I don’t think we got the montage and solo from Doug in Australia.
Susan would say “You are mean,mean,mean picking on an old man’s singing”. LMAO.
I’m going to really miss Lucas, even though it seems to me that Show never really invests in his character. His goodbye scenes with Kate were really good, likewise his scene with Will. Bryan Datillo and Chandler Massey have always brought out the best in each other IMO. Julie, on the other hand……while I appreciate the character’s longevity with the show, I think Julie, while being really sentimental is also mean as a snake and proudly dumb as a rock. The nonsensical scene where she was nice to Chloe was such b.s. Julie isn’t a nice person, never was, just… Read more »
Gabi pushes Julie down a flight of stairs after Julie learns Gabs secrets…Julie in hospital and in a coma…Christmas Eve miracle…Doug sings to his beloved Julie..’The Most Beautiful Girl In The World!’,,,and Julie wakes up…however Julie suffers a memory loss…she thinks its the 70s and that she is still married to Scott Banning and Gabi is her rival Susan Martin whom she hates-lol
What a great episode. Ron really knows how to blend history with the present. Julie has her nose in lots of current character business and it was absolutely fabulous that the show spent the money for those flashback scenes. Bill and Susan are wonderful and if you haven’t read their memoir–you really should. Fantastic tie-in with Lucas leaving and Ron really does great work with bringing family together in scenes.
Come on you guys. What are you writers doing? Give these characters a good story line so they stay. You are loosing more of the ones that have been here for ever. Why not give him a happy ever after kind of story line and keep him, and bring back Bo, Jack, Steve, EJ, Sami, and get rid of Stephan and the creep who is jacking around Sonnie and Will. Let everyone live a happy normal life for a while. Then let Loni and Eli get pregnant , someone else have a wild and crazy wedding, Abe finally retires and… Read more »
Valorie, what an unusual spelling for your name. Starting at the top, I am sick of dead people returning. We have enough living people on now to deal with. I can’t speak for anyone else, but I believe that Bo wouldn’t be happy to see “fancy face with someone else. I know Jack is supposed to return, but after getting crushed in an elevator, I wouldn’t thing there would be much to salvage. I agree about Lani being snooty, but I don’t agree with you, that how dare she, when she isn’t white? Is that what you were trying to… Read more »
It was great seeing the old clips of Julie, Doug, Alice and Tom. I love the showing of old clips like they did with Frances Reid, Alice and Tom on the anniversary.
Nice how they tied in Julie returning to Salem with Lucas leaving Salem.
Someone posted that Lucas is returning in May, guess he’s already started taping.
I am sorry to see Bryan Dattilo go. When TPTB gave him something meaningful to do, he did a great job and I enjoyed watching him. During the few years I’ve watched this show, it seems Lucas has always gotten the short end of the stick. I am glad the character is taking a positive stand and leaving on his own terms.
Thank you Bryan Dattilo for your great work. I wish you much success and happiness in the future.
Congratulation Ms Seaforth Hays. I love your work. Even before i started watching days, I knew of Doug and Julie, because my Mum used to watch the show. I also remember Susan and Bill’s appearances in Australia for The Logies and The Don Lane show when I was a kid. Because she’s often now shown as a busybody, young people watching today may not realise what a heroine Julie was in her day and so very beautiful.
Yes, you might consider her a heroine, but when I first saw Julie years ago, she drove her family crazy, and I’ll just say she was hell on wheels, always getting into trouble with some boy or whatever. Claire is a lot like Julie was.
Very nice tribute to Susan.I just wish that Julie would learn to mind her own business,the thing I hate about the Hortons is they think there s–t doesnt stink and they can never do anything wrong.
I knew that Bryan was leaving I think it was because lack of story.
One thing I do have to give Julie credit for is that she is helping Abby with getting back at Gabby
Sad to see “Lucas” go…..hope he returns!!
This is the only show whose storylines still make sense…mostly, anyway; albeit the inconsistencies annoy me…..Julie has only two grandchildren: Scotty and Eli.
At what point did she become Ciera’s and Claire’s grandmother?
TPTB are rewriting history….AGAIN!!
