Days of Our Lives

I have watched the days of our lives since I was ten years old. I admit that some of the story lines are completely outlandish, like the one about eight years back about Marlena getting possessed by Satan, but for some unknown reason, I cant stop watching this show. The love for this show seems to be an epidemic in my high school as well, among both guys and girls. I never really watched a soap opera before this one, except for Another World. The show's contract with NBC comes under review in 2004. Myself, as well as many other diehard Days fans, are holding their breath praying that they renew it.

Started watching Days of Our Lives when I was very young. I am 65. I just refuse to go down the whole demon possessed storyline again. When making my decision I realized there is just nothing being written about any of the characters that keeps me interested. Sad to leave, but writers have really dropped the ball.

Days of Our Lives is yes, a little silly at times, but i find it addicting. I started watching during Christmas break of my sophomore year and now, a 47 year old woman, i still find the show irresistible. At times the story lines can become a little far-fetched (ex. the Salem Stalker) but that's why i turn the show on everyday. It gives me a break from reality and lets me explore a completely different world. Some may find it a little bit silly, but that makes it all the more exciting. If you want to watch Days of our Lives, I say start now because there's a lot to learn. This show has been running since 1965 and I've loved every minute of it.

This is the best soap that was ever on tv. Most of the charactors are great, like Bo, Hope, Roman, Marlena, John, Craig, Nancy.. and then there are some that are not so good, like Nicole, Nicholas. There have been some great storylines. I loved all of them except when Marlena was possessed. That was just a waste but I guess they can't all be perfect. Overall this is a great show. No wonder it's been on for 34 years.

I have watched this excellent soap/serial steadily since 1981 and occasionally before that back to around 1968. It was good before the appearance of Stefano in 1981, but since then has really distinguished itself quite well. The longevity of the characters is terrific! It is sometimes very predictable, sometimes throws you for a loop. It has had extremely outstanding acting through the years. My one wish is that they bring back Kayla & Patch to bring closure to the open ending they were thrust into a few years back. I would even like it more if Patch were teamed with the ORIGINAL Kayla, Catherine Mary Stewart, who was always one of my very favorite actresses!!! Keep on truckin, DOOL.
