OK..
here is the bad thing=

”Numbers are based on Live+Same Day ratings. Courtesy SON”

— on live — viewing..

I, as probably a million others do not watch ”live” or same day ..

I am not in the numbers counted 🙁 whaaaa I don’t count 🙁

(imagine the numbers if ALL/EVERYBODY was actually counted..

days is done! i havnt watchd a full episode in months! their only saving grace will be kirstens return except she s only around for a couple of weeks and there s been next to no promotion for it!
the only storylines im midly invested in is jj and paige, teresa/ brady , and maybe paul and sonny
everything else is ff
days needs some serious 911 if its going to make it to 51. geez

I’ve been a true fan of DOOL forever, hope NBC doesn’t pull the plug on it, as even though a character or story line doesn’t work, it is entertaining to watch, the actors are true at heart and I will keep tuning in as I always have over the years..

I have never watched DOOL..
but
I have read/seen a great effort to save it..
trying new things and bringing in different peoples, cast etc..
At the least they come across as caring and trying to save DOOL ..

Wish it the best ..

I’ve have said it before and this information proves it….Whenever Days focuses on the gay storyline, the ratings drop! What further proof due you need? Many Days fans never wanted a gay storyline in the first place. They went ahead and did it anyway and used two main characters from two of the prominent (relative to the show) families to tell the story. That was was the second mistake – to use characters from the main families. Now the audience hates the storyline. You can write and air it, BUT YOU CAN’T MAKE PEOPLE WATCH IT!!!!!!!

Days should have listened to the fans from the get go and avoided the gay storyline. However, I am also aware that NBC has a say so in what goes on in Salem. I have long suspected that NBC was the driving force behind have a gay storyline on Days. If so, the could have forced the storyline on Corday Productions. Regardless of what the true circumstances were, the outcome is clear – the fans don’t like it!

Now, in order to get rid of the gay storyline, you have to get rid of two main characters from two main families….Characters who fans would greatly appreciate and support as straight characters.

It is not lost on me that the powers that be a NBC are doing whatever they want regardless of what the viewers think about it or are willing to watch. So, let them live with the consequences! I am sure their revenue from advertisements will continue to dwindle as long as they keep pushing homosexuality. How long can that network survive with dwindling revenue?

As a side note, I am still waiting to see how the transgender storyline on CBS will affect the ratings over time. I am also interested in seeing whether or not CBS will be as dogmatic in their support of unpopular stories as NBC has been. I don’t even watch primetime TV on the four major networks anymore, with the exception of DWTS… I think I read an article last year in one of the Entertainment trade magazines, that said revenue from advertising was down for the four major networks. I expect that trend to continue as long as they remain crosswise of the viewership.

I have loved and watched Days for years. They have been in storyline slumps before, but this is an all time worst. First, why is Stefano only filmed in a room by himself? Does the actor refuse to film more frequently? Second, why did Alison Sweeney really leave the show? They really need her. Third- why don’t they pair rup Rafe with someone, put him back on the force, and give him a storyline? Also- they need to do something about the JJ and Melanie story. He is interesting but the story has played on too long, it’s kind of grioss that he slept with her mother TWICE, and there never seems to be a dramatic payoff. Plus the actress is SO boring and she cannot act. speaking of which. The gay storyline is interesting, but GuY Wilson is truly terrible to watch. It is a great story but watching him try to act is almost unbearable. I love that they have given Adrienne a story, buy I wish they would do the same for the legendary Deidre Hall. She is the only one on the show with real star power, and they never use her anymore- and every time Will calls the foever youthful Deidre Hall “grandma” I wanna through the hourglass at my television screen. Also, they need to change the baackground music. There is too much of an electronic sound in the music, and it sounds waaay too generic. They also need to look athe production schedule. They may be saving money by shooting five months in advance. However, in the long run it is just not working. The advance filming leaves no opportunity to fix things that are clearly not working.Finally, they desperately need some real storylines with credible drama. They need writers that understand soap opera and the importance of writing arcs and episodes that keep viewers guessing, which in turn compels them to tune in each and every day. I love Days and ai hope Corday can fix this mess before it is too late.

I started watching Days when I heard Kassie DePaiva was coming. Wow. Even the great Kassie DePaiva couldn’t save that nutso character she has to play. What is wrong with the writers of DOOL ? Almost every female character they portray is either a stalker or sex starved, or just plain unbelievable. Case in point:

Nicole: Since Dr. Dan told her to take it slow, she has constantly called, texted, or showed up at his door. Are you kidding me? A beautiful woman like that has to come across as the most desperate excuse for a woman?

Eve: Really. She spends her whole day either running after her daughter or her daughter’s boyfriend. She needs to get a life and find a man, not a boy.

Melanie: Oh please. How old is she? 12? I could play the drinking game with how many times we are subjected to the cutsie looks. All she needs to do now is start batting her eyelashes.

Jennifer: Another one who needs a life. What mother makes it her life mission to control their children’s love lives????

Theresa: I love Jen Lilly. However, the character she portrays has the lowest self esteem of anyone I have ever seen. That scene where she gazes longingly at Nicole and Xander says it all.

Of course, every character should have some flaws, otherwise they wouldn’t be interesting. But these charaters are at the farthest end of the spectrum.

I have watched Days for years. I am not gay ** do have friends that are. They are great people. Quit showing them in bed together. I will not expose my Grand children to this. This has helped your rating go sown in our area.

Horrible writing and lack of interesting stories make Days a very BORING soap to watch. I stopped watching when EJAMI left, but started again about 6 weeks ago. It is just AWFUL in my opinion. I stopped watching again and this time for good, unless they being back EJ. The lack of Dimera family has left a HUGE VOID. Chad is NOT the answer, especially alone.

Days fans I would not hold my breath at Dena Higley & Josh Griffith turning this around. Dena has written for Days before these are recycled writers. Also why don’t you read about how she did damage to OLTL wrote for them 2004/2007 ask Erika Slezak who God bless her had the love for the show to be honest about it. Daytime needs a breath of fresh air some new blood. Guiding Light’s ratings were 1.7 and they were axed Days are 1.6. . As for the storylines you don’t want grandchildren seeing why are they watching daytime dramas? I have not watched since we had Marlena going around as the Devil. Good Luck to you but I think this is Days Swan Song!!

They need to keep exciting characters and stop pushing the bores (Jennifer, Paige, Hope, whatever Hope’s boyfriends’ name is) down our throats! They need to do anything they can to keep Serena and Sonny! The Sonny/Will and Eve/anyone scenes are the best and most exciting. they could do so much with an exciting character like Serena too. It’s time to keep moving and if a character (Jennifer or actress Melissa) isn’t working, change it! I’m ready to stop watching myself!

Have not watched very much in awhile, so not sure of everything that is going on, but ”popped’ in for a short time the other day when I happened to be home – the Hope/Aiden scene was cute (Aiden is adorable), Lucas and Kate were good, Nicole and Daniel had some sizzle, Rafe is so handsome and well suited to run the club, and Victor is always good – he is an anchor. With all of this said, some of the characters and actors can give some good soapy stuff, so it is now up to the writers to give them storylines that make you want to watch. Look forward to the Days 50 celebrations, but concerned they may not be renewed after that is over. Come on Days we are pulling for you to step up to the plate and give us the romance and intrigue that will make us want to watch again.

To increase interest in the show, Days could challenge its writers to create the Sonix articles which Will supposedly wrote about Sami, EJ, Chad, and Paul Nurita. Why not? It could be fun. Days could publish the fabulous articles on its website, with supposed permission from Sonix. Since it’s fiction, the articles could be as scandalous as the writers want to make them.

And of course, for heaven’s sake, pay whatever is required to bring Chandler Massey back to the show.
