Days: Beyond Salem - chit-chat, plot comments, etc

I can't believe how much I have been enjoying Chad on this spinoff when he has not been enjoyable at all on the main show in a long time. It just goes to show that the regular show can be fixed with better writing for all of the characters. I loved when he dressed in drag and came out, he was such a natural. Sonny and Will, not so much. Leo trying to sneak out with the emerald was typical Leo. Glad that Shane showed up and stopped him.

Now I'm wondering what was Austin's true purpose in bidding on the sapphire was for since he had the ruby and the citrine. Was he meeting with the person behind all of the thefts?

Really, a sex party for Ciara and Ben? Don't we get enough of that with them without them attending a party like that? But at least they got out of there and with the amethyst.
 
Like mother, like son. Sami dressed as a man in 2005, Will dressed like a woman in 2021. Granted they were completely different situations and circumstances, but still.
 
I enjoyed yesterdays episode better.

Chad was fun in this one. Hopefully, he'll be more relaxed when he gets back to Salem.

Ben said it all about wanting to take a shower in bleach.

So, Kristen got away again. She's more slippery than an eel.

It was interesting to see Austin with the last two gems. Is he the one in charge? Or is Austin
working for the ISA? Will we see the person who's behind the thefts?

Shane was the smart one waiting for Leo on the outside of the club.
 
Maybe Austin is helping his sister Billie. That's a possibility and he says he travels a lot.
Maybe he got the other two on a trip.

Is the mastermind someone we've seen on this show? Someone in Salem? I would like
it to be someone unknown.
 
I've loved Chad throughout this streaming series (I'll even forgive the DiMera name-dropping since Leo was unfazed) which amazes me because I have no use for his moping in Salem.

I'm wondering if Leo, Austin, and Billie's partner are on to something. There's a lot going on and it's nicely done. Although I'm enjoying Ben and Ciara, they're not clicking the way the rest of the story is. I do appreciate the attempt to give them something to do other than boink.
 
The trouble with Ben & Ciara Beyond, is they still were into something sexual. My computer blacks out every so often with Peacock, no idea why, so I miss something......like Ben & that woman. I know Ciara used his own restraints on the guy....but it was rather over the top that anyone would host a huge "sex party". However, It has been fun watching Chad, do agree, his efforts at times to keep from laughing are a hoot and then some.
Kat, never thought about Austin perhaps working with his sister, hmmmm, that's a thought.
My secret wish is that all those children (now adults) that Stefano sired would just drop the DiMera name, & go back to their original ones, honor those who raised them. Chop up DiMera Enterprises, sell it all off, give them all their inheritance or go to charity, whatever. If they have to, keep DiMera as a middle name or something like that. Yes, will never happen, but, what the heck, one can always dream. LOLOL
 
I looked on the web to see if these two shows had a crossover episode. I did not find out if they did, but on a message board it was mentioned that they used the same living room/kitchen set while the two shows were running concurrently.
Highly unlikely that they would ever have had a crossover as they were on different networks and had totally different production companies behind them. I'd be surprised if they used the same sets - redressing those constantly would be a chore, unless they were filmed at similar studios (doubtful)
 
I assumed Paulina's comment meant she had run into Drew somewhere. It didn't seem thick enough to be an actual reference to his The Nanny character, but since Ron's not writing Beyond Salem, I'll admit it’s possible.

Perhaps the mastermind is the not-as-dead-as-we-thought Harrison Lord??? LOL
sex in Miami, sex in Zurich, sex in New Orleans, sex and drag in Arizona
Who had sex in Miami today? And who had sex in Arizona?
 
I am really loving this show! At first I wasn't sure but I am now!

Chad, Will, and Sonny were hysterical! You could tell they were enjoying themselves.

Leo is hugely inappropriate but he's so funny it's not that bad.

The party thing was not necessary. It was tacky.

I did get a bit confused trying to figure out where everybody was but it was all good.

I thought that necklace was a bit ugly.

I am beginning to warm up to Paulina!
