Days 50th Video Montages (begin 8/31)

[Poirot]

Days is going to be doing a "retrospective" of various Days families, starting at the beginning. one a week for 10 weeks, 2-4 minutes. This came from Days' Publicist. I think it is called 50 years of Days.

 

[Just Samantha]

That sounds exciting!

 

[WhizGidget]

Hm. Could be interesting... as long as they don't employ revisionist history for the summaries.

 

[JasonDíSpeech]

Sweet! I won't have to explain who people are anymore on twitter!! :wink:

 

[Poirot]

LOL, Jason, I had someone sitting here today, as I watched the show, who had never seen it, and I was trying to watch, yet explain who was who. Egads, that is hard. Actually, I think this retrospective is going to be sort of maybe flashbacks of family, characters, relationships, maybe even a bit of "backstory".

 

[missharleyquinn]

So will this happen before the opening theme, maybe? One decade of one family per day?

 

[Soaphead]

LOL Poirot especially Example someone said "But I thought Hope and Julie were sisters? The kids calling her Grandma and Hope calls her Julie and Doug "dad". Answer that, and by then show's over

 

[missharleyquinn]

I feel like what I posted didn't entirely make sense, I mean are they going to focus on the Hortons one week, then do 10 years every day to come out to the 50 years? Then the Bradys, same pattern? That would be cool.

 

[Daysdegrassi]

Good!!!

 

[Sparkster]

Yeah, I'm with missharley....do you have more info about this? Is this something to be shown on tv as part of the show or right at the beginning or end of the show or something special on the NBC/DAYS website or???? Sorry, just want a little more clarification please.

 

[missharleyquinn]

I'm hoping it'll actually air, because I'm awful at checking the NBC site (and half the time the videos won't play).

 

[Poirot]

The heads of two Salem families - one topic each week...and just once a week....Info came from Day's publicist on twitter.have no other info. Am sure it will be during the Days hour.

 

[missharleyquinn]

I'm intrigued. I think. Moreso to see how they'll cram 50 years into 2-4 minutes weekly.

 

[Sparkster]

Ok, thanks for the info. Sounds like it will air during the show then. I was confused at first as to how they were going to get it to the viewers. Sounds fantastic.

 

[Heather4CU]

I'm guessing it will also be on NBC.com and perhaps the NBC YouTube channel. I really wish they'd create a channel just for the 50th.

 

[leebee81]

I hope it ends up elsewhere on YouTube. Stupid NBC and their stupid location restrictions. I can't help where I'm located!

 

[Heather4CU]

NBC should really create a Days YouTube channel for the 50th. They can put all these promo videos as well as endorsed flashbacks onto it. That would be huge.

 

[Poirot]

For a huge network, it is unreal their video clips on their site are so very bad. So many have problems with them.

 

[ktspirit]

Oh, goody! I might get to see some scenes I've missed over the years when I was in school, before VCRs, and didn't have TV service or internet accessibility to view the show. People could tell me what happened, so I could keep up, but it's not the same as seeing it!

 

[Soaphead]

I don't like going to NBC's site for that reason; too difficult
