Hello friends -
Well, this fandom has been through the ringer these last few days.
I know some people are still watching the show for Freddie Smith's last scenes (Love you, Sunny! You are made of stronger stuff than me) and others are even going to stick with the show after that. However, I think for most of the rest of us - we are done with Days of Our Lives, at least in canon form.
However, Sunnyways and I couldn't stand letting this place go down with the gay cleanse on Days, so we've revamped, regrouped and now have a different mission. Yes, please continue to discuss Will, Sonny & Paul and their groundbreaking storyline. Yes, keep us updated if you hear that they are going to try and undo the godawful, homophobic ending.
But onward and upward! Already people have started suggesting alternatives to Days and hopefully we'll start some lively discussion. So bring it on! Hate may have won the day at Days of Our Lives, but Love will win here.
This thread is open - suggest anything!

 honeybees... Here's a new hashtag: #LOVEWINSATCOMMONGROUNDS
As devastated as I am about Will dying, I am looking forward to taking our message board towards a new direction. I;m really excited about Guy's webseries Youthful Daze and can't wait to start talking about that. Also, Hit the Floor should be premiering soon.....I hope. I also know there a few HTGAWM fans here, I also would like to talk about that show. So plenty of new things to keep ourselves happy and busy and as honeybees said, we'll keep some of the old days stuff, but days will have it's own thread consolidated.

You Guys should include a few new themes for the actors LIKE GW's new project, FS's new projects. In addition to the title of the project.
I am missing Coliver.
Plus, we should create a special archive and we unabashedly have all the clips from start to FS's paris departure.

Hello! Newbie on the block! First, thank you for the website. I have much enjoyed reading other people's appreciations of Will & Sonny & co, and also have been much interested in reading people's take on the recent Daysaster. I have read the part of the current thread that covers the unspeakable act of October 9th with great interest. The thing is, I just wanted to say that I have no interest in Post-Apocalyptic Days, and it makes me actually quite sad and upset thinking about it. It's a fiction I reject, and don't want to know about or entertain. I think some people want to talk about that, and read about that, and others, including myself, really don't. Perhaps then it would be an idea to have multiple threads now: A Pre-Apocalypse thread (Will's era and before), an Apocalypse thread (for continuing to talk about the mad mad Daysaster), and a Post-Apocalypse thread (which I would only glimpse at if I was in the mood for having a laugh at stupid stupid really very dumb stuff). I appreciate that I'm only a newby around here, which is why I haven't gone ahead and just made new threads! And I appreciate this is a time of transition, and I've just walked in the door, and I see you've been thinking about how to best go forward anyway - and so I'm just putting a thought out there with respect and gratitude. Peace! I want to celebrate the good that was given to us, and I want to forget the present badness. I'm glad it is race day tomorrow. Something to cheer about!  |

I take the position that the new writers - who shall go unnamed - had no right to tell Will, Sonny and Paul's story, let alone end it in the most awful way. I think your suggestion is a good one - I'll talk to my cohort Sunny - and we can see if we can cook up some separate threads. Also, this is the kind of situation where fan works matter - check out our fan fiction section. There's already plenty of examples of people writing alternate endings and different timelines (myself included) - because we fans loved the characters more than the crappy humans who "own" them. |

Thank you for replying. It is totally your call. I am so glad to have found some like minds and hearts!  I really liked Freddie's idea of a sitcom with Sonny, Will, and Gabi, and Ari. That would be such fun. I shall think of them living there! Edit: I guess it will be called "Will & ( Sonny & Gabi & Arianna ) Grace" ! |
