For any soap you stop watching for a period of time, you start again and it's like you never left!BloodRedRoseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14681349170600532948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6703159321496840959.post-13739836619399733172008-04-22T10:36:00.000-04:002008-04-22T10:36:00.000-04:00My mother has watched Days since she was in high s...My mother has watched Days since she was in high school and, consequently, I grew up on this soap. Literally. I have distinct memories of eating hard pretzels and sitting in front of the tv with my mother when I was in kindergarten. I remember when Jennifer was a teenager involved with Frankie. I remember when Beau and Hope were not yet dating. I remember characters that haven't been on the show for twenty years. <BR/><BR/>I certainly don't watch regularly anymore. And, I agree, it's quality has fallen off somewhat as of late. But there's something about the longevity of Days. Something about the way it feels comfortable. Feels like home.A Lil' Irish Lasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08097756919669746821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6703159321496840959.post-28071322894044661872008-04-21T23:32:00.000-04:002008-04-21T23:32:00.000-04:00oh gosh, i could never get into soaps. partially b...oh gosh, i could never get into soaps. partially b/c my mother believes they are trash. but the one thing i can say is that i can tune into that soap "Passions" after like, 2.5 years and still nothing will have changed. aka Theresa (i think that's her name) WILL CRY at some point in the episode. it's absolutely ridiculous.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6703159321496840959.post-74939688728645159092008-04-21T14:36:00.000-04:002008-04-21T14:36:00.000-04:00I Loved this show, and it's so true - within three...I Loved this show, and it's so true - within three episodes, you are caught back up, even if it has been a few years since you've seen it.<BR/><BR/>I, sadly, started watching it when I was in elementary school, at the babysitter's house. Back then it was on a 9am, so we'd watch Bewitched at 830, Days at 9, then she'd watch another soap at 10 and send us outside to play.<BR/><BR/>You are absolutely right - it is not even half as good as it was back then, and the hardest part I find, getting back into it, is figuring out who everyone is, because they have recast pretty much everyone.<BR/><BR/>But all in all, I find myself tuning in on days off.Lpeghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02077455054760203007noreply@blogger.com
