The Days

With all of the twisted warped reality shows and sitcoms that are on television, there are few that I deem worthy to watch. The Days just happens to be one of the select few. Even though the plot may be a little over-crowded, it's a breath of fresh air, as opposed to the stupid reality television that everyone obsesses about. The Days has easily relatable characters and elements for everyone to enjoy, and the story plot is easily understood. many teenagers and adults will find themselves having something in common with at least one of the characters, and for those with short attention spans, the show breaks into sub-plots for each character. I would give this show an excellent rating were I a professional, but i think that you'll just have to watch it and rate it for yourself.

The Days has just been aired in South Africa and I was shocked when it stopped just after six episodes! It is such an amazing story. I watch the story and i find myself WISHING i had a family like that. I absolutely adored all the characters and empathised with Nat because i also had a teen pregnancy and although my Mom was there for me, the rest of my family deserted me.

Television is really spoiled by a lot of rotten shows and the Days was like a fresh breeze. Excellent story line and it had a very witty script that made me laugh and cry all at the same time and i could really live myself into the story.

I am so disappointed that there is no mention on here of a second series, because i think it would have carried on very successfully.

Please could someone tell me that it is not over??

It's a rather quirky show, interested in trying a new approach to a dramatic/comedy type of family storyline that wants to talk about the dynamics of a family as a unit and as individuals. Think "My So Called Life" meets "Joan of Arcadia" type of vibe, with a bit of Disney type humor, ie "Even Stevens." The acting is sometimes awkward, but it works, as the family is a little awkward in its dynamic. It is almost a personality quirk of the show itself. The hour is narrated by 15 year old defunct Cooper Day, the floppy haired, indie music listening middle son who wants to be a writer. He does a good job of injecting humor and irony into the rhythm. It's worth a watch. I enjoyed it's offbeat storytelling.

i enjoyed this show, i watched it with my teenage daughter- i would gladly buy the DVD if they were to release the episodes they made- for us this show was right up there with Buffy, Angel, Roswell, Do Over, Wonderfalls, Tru Calling, Touching Evil, Once and Again- there are so many shows that the networks just don't give a chance to shine. we are inundated with reality TV, and shows i often wonder what the appeal is while there are shows that have redeeming value that are canceled (like now- Joan of Arcadia is not picked up again, why because there is a lesson in each episode)~ in the meantime we have the recorded copies so we can enjoy the shows, thank goodness for those since they have not released them yet on DVD. Once more, my 14 yr old daughter and i enjoyed the show, and we both recommend it to those who are not sure what side of the fence they should be on.

I've never been the type of person who can get into a television show (save six feet under). I find it really hard to get into a show because of the fact that I am only 14 years old but 'The Days' got me hooked. I watched it with my sister and my mother every Sunday. I was really disappointed when it got pulled because I thought the show could have really gone places. Evan Peters was very good at playing a moody teenager (though that may have been based on real life) the situations were real and the fact that you had a teenage boy who was almost afraid of sex made it even better. I wish they would have kept the show on longer.
