Agreed. As a life long Days fan I feel the same. All I is see is Chris the older brother of the Salem Strangler -Jake Kositchek. The show was on top of it's game in late 70's through the mid 80's.
You're not alone. The stress, extra expense and inconvenience caused by NBC's foolishness and greed will end the treasured series forever. All of us who have warm memories of watching Days with our mothers, making this show a part of Our Lives for decades feel betrayed. And they should. I was a faithful viewer since 1968 when I was pregnant and taking care of my post-surgical mother. She was already hooked and for the next 26 years we either watched together or caught up on the phone. My mother died in the hospital the same week that the show had Dr Tom die. So this show has meant a lot to me. Nevertheless, I have stopped watching. So has my best DOOL friend. 🖤🖤🖤 I remember what they did with "Passions".
Well truthfully the reason why Roman and Kate aren’t together for so many years is that Kate was being a b**** to Sami likewise Sami was also being a b**** to Kate.
