Days Of Our Lives
Days of our Lives New Fall Season Promo That ‘Tops All’
Right before Labor Day weekend, NBC released the new fall season promo for Days of our Lives, and from the looks of it, fans are in for surprise after surprise, all leading to “a twist never before seen in daytime”, according to the teaser.
From Jack (Matt Ashford) and Jennifer’s (Melissa Reeves) big kiss, to someone becoming preggars, to the reuniting of Eric (Greg Vaughan) and Nicole (Arianne Zucker), and heart-stopping drama involving Julie (Susan Seaforth Hayes) and Kate (Lauren Koslow), plus Vivian (Robin Strasser) being alive much to the shock of her son, Stefan (Brandon Barash), an Elani wedding, and returns of Jordan Ridgeway (Chrishell Hartley) and Claire (Olivia Rose Keegan), and more, there are plenty of nuggets to dissect and speculate on of what’s to come in Salem from this fall season kick-off.
Watch it below …. and then let us know what you are looking forward to seeing the most via the comment section below.
I am looking forward to the Eli/Lani wedding, Robin Strasser as Vivian and Nicole and Eric being reunited. I am not thrilled to see Hope looking like Princess Gina. The time has come to stop rehashing old storylines. We have seen that before. It also looks like someone is buried alive. Been there, done that.
Also, I did not enjoy the Eric/Sarah storyline because we had already seen Eric fall in love with one of his brother’s girlfriend. The ratings MUST go up. It seems the soaps have been losing so many viewers lately. Could it be because we are not seeing anything new.
I would love to see a new family introduced to mix it up with the Brady/Horton/Dimeras. The show needs some new blood and if that means losing a few more veterans, I am for it.
Nothing appeals to me. Too campy and unbelievable. Same with General Hospital.
Now dont get me wrong I like Robin Strasser however I wish it was the original Vivian.We waited so long to see her by the way I knew she wasnt dead.Even before we saw her in that room.I wonder how many more dead people are going to come back to life.I feel like I am watching Dark Shadows on that show everyone came back to life
Can you imagine if they would have brought in the great Robin Strasser as a Kiriakis, making her Justin’s mother and Sonny’s grandmother instead of yet another DiMera replacement. They could have given her a bitter romantic past with Victor and made her a rival to Maggie in bed and a rival to Victor in business. The possibilities would have been endless. I will say this again. Its time to retire the DiMera family.
Can’t wait to see what’s in store! And as to “what’s never been seen on daytime before”, I’m at a complete loss. Guess I’ll have to be patient and see.
I’m not an obsessive Robin Strasser fan or anything, but I broke into spontaneous applause when I saw her. Even in a three-second clip, she brings such an energy and presence. Really looking forward to seeing her onscreen!
Hallelujah!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Robin Strasser is in town.
I’m also happy to see Chrishell Hartley and Olivia Rose Keegan.
Oh well, I guess one out of three isn’t too bad.
Well, it only took 6.66 seconds for me to know that ReRon’s recasting of Vivian is every bit as bad as all of his other recasts have been. 15 episodes of this is going to be about 15 too many.
I always knew Jordan would return to Salem…….I had predicted that the baby is Rafe’s. I still believe that—–there will be a grand-ole-reunion–Rafe plus Jordan, and baby makes three.
Looking good–great stuff a’coming. Yup….
Looks so good. Can’t wait!
Loved the video, and the best was seeing the gag in Jennifer’s mouth! Does she ever shut up?
Now that Julie needs a new heart and is too old for the transplant list there’s only two ways to save her (‘cause you know she isn’t going anywhere): either Stefan will die somehow and Gabi will donate his heart to make up for leaving Julie in the park or Lani will marry Eli (in a rushed ceremony so Julie can see her grandson get hitched) and then get shot in the line of duty and Eli will donate his new wife’s heart to save his grandma.
Days is under 2 million viewers. Has been for weeks. I don’t see it going past 2020. But that may change, or the damage is already done and…
Days will always pick the wrong storyline or the wrong couple to focus on and doom itself. It keeps bringing back all these oldie goldies from the 80s instead of focusing on keeping its younger cast members and allowing them to be the focus of the show. It seems unable to give it minority actors other than Gabi substantive storylines. Its obssessed with the DiMera family which should have been retired when Stefano died instead of introducing the younger Kiriakis family. It gives us Nicole at the expense of Belle and Shawn. It kills of every decent guy who has chemistry with Hope. The only bright spot is Doug and Julie. Days never learns and i don’t see it surviving much longer.
Ok, just curious- Does someone get shot in Salem every week and at every event(wedding, engagement party, funeral, etc., Kristen DiMera is bound to hold Marlena hostage? Didn’t it recently happen at Marlena’s nuptials to John a few months back?
When Lani expressed some reservations about having an engagement party at “Doug’s Place”, she wasn’t exaggerating. Every public event there has resulted in either random acts of violence, insanity, somebody returning from the dead or often all of the above.
It’s another one of those “traditions” ReRon established on the other shows he wrote for….. used the same plot point repeatedly on GH.
You are oh so right! That’s Ron!
Love love. Since 1969 with special grandma Minnie. I wish you can rewrite Ben. I see all is going to start all over. . I would love to married kids and their own drama and secrets.
