Days Of Our Lives Watchers

[TiggerPiglet]

Well, I guess today was the big reveal. It looks like Alice and Marlena are alive, eventhough they were embombed and then buried It looks like they're on some island that looks like Salem. This storyline seems like it will be really farfetched, even for JER. The only light I can see here is that since Alice is alive, I'm hoping so will everyone else

What do you guys make of this storyline? Watching today, I don't even know if I know what I was watching

I do have to say, I don't think this has ever been done before, I hope it will all eventually make sense.


**edited to add** I just read that Richard Biggs has passed away at 43. He played Marcus Hunter from 87-92. Here's the link: http://www.soapoperafan.com/days/actor.html

Everybody is still alive! I saw in the Soap Opera Digest that everybody that was killed off was asked to come back a few months after. Apparently, they really thought they were fired, but the whole time the writers were planning on asking them back but didn't tell them that to keep the story a big secret. If you love Days you have to check out this website: soapoperafan.com. If you miss the show the guy that does the website summarizes the days show every day. If you don't want the "surprise" spoiled on what the twist is, don't read the spoilers!

It's JER! I'm not sure it will ever make sense. I switched over to it just in time to see Marlena's casket falling into the firey pit

I'm not fully sure I buy this they were going to bring them back anyway thing, I think ratings started to slip and people were getting pissed!! Killing off Alice was the last straw, you just don't do that!!

I don't like JER as a writer, he drags things on for way too long!! I left the country for a month and came back and it was like I hadn't missed anything!

I knew they were coming back, alive and well, but can't figure out how they will get from this "Salem Island" to the real world. Wonder what caused Marlena's coffin to sink and how it landed where it did! I seriously don't think any of this will ever make sense!

 

[TiggerPiglet]

I was wondering too how they'll get back to the real Salem, but then I remembered what Marlena's ghost said to Celeste about everyone in Salem was going to die.
Do you think maybe they'll all live on this island in the fake Salem from now on? I don't know if I'll like that

I forgot that the big reveal was supposed to be today! If I remembered, I would have watched. I was home, but I didn't feel like watching Days or Passions today. I knew that the big reveal was going to be that they're all alive, but I wish I could have seen how they're playing this out. Hopefully I'll understand when I watch tomorrow.

I really feel ripped off with this storyline. It's not like I want all the victims to be dead - I don't. But I mean how are they going to explain all this? Marlena offed them all and yet they are all happy to see her in this fake Salem? And I just don't like that they're all in this separate place.

 

[niks81]

OMG will somebody please explain to me what the hell is going on??

Last I saw they were trying to shoot Marlena on the roof This storyline is sounding more pathetic by the day!

 

[always quiet]

Let's see....Marlena was shot and killed. She 'woke up' at her funeral and Sami heard her calling out. They opened the casket, only to find her dead. She was buried and her casket sunk and landed on an island where the dead aren't dead because she didn't kill them. She's not dead either.

Any questions???

 

[720L]

I think it's all a dream for everybody and somebody evil (Stephano, Victor or I've heard possibly Ernesto Toscano) is behind all this. Whatever it is, it's not going to make total sense because the storyline is so confusing now! It seems like they always get such wierd storylines in the summer. I keep watching though!

 

[cynsaun]

Ok, I haven't watched Days since Marlena was the devil it was just getting waaaayy too out there then, and look, they outdone themselves again!

I heard from a friend that she has heard that it will turn out that Sami was playing a "Sims" type game and everyone will be alive.

It just keeps getting better and better!

 

[welovedisneyx4]

What is a "Sims" type game??

Sami was playing a "Sims" type game and everyone will be alive.

 

[cynsaun]

There is a computer game called "Sims" where the player makes up families, towns, etc. The player can determine how the people in the game get along, what they do. The game is so intricate that you have to tell the people to go to the bathroom, eat, go to work, be nice to others.

It's a simulated world that is created.

Hope this helps!

That was so sad about Richard Biggs, I liked him. He was on in the good old "Days" with Kayla and Patch. Much more enjoyable show back then.

I agree completely!!!

 

[palmtreegirl]

The writer, JER said it's not a dream or a game.

While watching the Daytime Emmy show I thought I saw Matthew Ashford sitting next to Melissa Reeves. Maybe he'll come back too!

I'm hoping that Matthew Ashford will come back too. Now if he is alive, how will the Jenn/Patrick storyline play out and also the Lexie/Tek storyline if Abe is in fact alive? In fact, on the coming attractions you see Lexie giving Tek a kiss on the cheek. Remember Celeste's premonition that Jenn, Lexie and Hope all had wedding rings on and were happy and that Hope was not with Bo. I thought maybe they scratched this storyline because they only brought it up once, but just the other day Hope was remembering what Celeste had said to her, so I'm assuming they plan to continue towards that "ring" storyline.

Here is link I found of an interview JER gave to TV Guide. According to him, there have been hints all along as to who is behind this and once we find out it will all make sense Well, I don't know about you guys, but I'll believe it when I see it.
