I have been watching Days since I was in college, aroung 1988 or so. We on our dorm floor watched Santa Barbara and Days. I started watch Days all the time when SB was canceled in Philly first, then the rest of the country. I have stuck with it through bad plots and recasts. When my husband and I are wacthing another show (in primetime) and I say "wow that person looks familier" his joke is "was s/he on DOOL". Now he even is starting to recognize some of the former Days actors.
By the way, keep up the great work with this website! I have been reading it forever, and am now happy that I can post!
