Days of Our Lives - Wed., Aug. 31, 2022

I think it was done so we wouldn't have go through all the pregnancies and just have babies.

I thought, at the time, it was done to avoid having to reference the presidential election, lol. But, then again, ReRon claimed he always wanted to do a time jump. Guess he forgot how you have to really plan ahead if you do one.

I don't think Days has ever referenced anything in relation to any presidential election. ReRon thought it was something new and exciting that had never been done on a daytime soap since it jumped ahead a year and we had to wait to see how the "mysteries" unraveled during that "missed year", like how Haley Chen died, why Will was in prison, the car accident that killed Adrienne, the switching of dead baby Mickey with baby Rachel, etc.

Yeah, I know that, like I said, "at the time"............there was a lot of controversy in CA ,. I know ReRon was all worked up and excited to do the time jump.....but he botched it, only thought of a few weeks of it, then as we all have seen, never mentioned again.

Is it 2013 again? Because Johnny and Ava looks like it'll be a redux of Eve & JJ, while Rachel being bratty towards Chloe reminds me of JJ being a brat to his mom about dating Daniel (which, granted, most fans didn't want).

All they ever do is repeat story lines with different characters

 

[Just Samantha]

To be fair, that's what all the soaps do.

I don't know why Brady or anyone else thinks Kristen won't take Rachel and go on the run with her, if she gets any kind of unsupervised visits.

I agree that Rachel is bratty. Too bad. She's a cute little girl.

So how old is Stefan Dimera?? Top picture DOB 1974 2nd picture he was born at the end of 1979.... that's more than a time jump right??

This show regularly insults our intelligence, and wants us to pay for the privilege.
