Did anyone watch? I'm definitely gonna check it out today. I grew up watching Days of our lives so I'm definitely gonna support. Especially with it being a black soap opera

 

[King Poetic]

I’ll give it a try, but ill move on quickly

But not to hate but it’s the same looking red bones/curly hair chicks u see on every show and the same Ghost/Omari Hardwick looking brothers u see all the time

 

[cyndaquil]

Why did you spell the word last?
How about a N-E-G

 

[Wildin]

Is Tyler Perry or 50 writing and producing?

Or is it just a white written show with black actors?

 

[bnew]

long overdue but hasn't that type of show been on the decline for decades?

I hope they bring some fresh plots.

 

[Secure Da Bag]

The golf club across the desk and the shimmy tells me this ain't gonna last.

 

[Black Hans]

The Boule, Jack and Jill cats? Is that what this show is about? PASS!!!

The Boule, Jack and Jill cats? Is that what this show is about? PASS!!!

You want a soap opera about broke people?

 

[Mike Nasty]

You want a soap opera about broke people?

Then he'd be complaining "why are we always portrayed as broke dusties on TV"

 

[DaKidFromNoWhere]

Tamara Tunie in her 60s and looks good.

 

[DaPresident]

Spencer James? Ehh, I already watch two of these, the Oval and Sistas on BET, I’ll probably pass for now, until the wife says, “I got a new show for us to watch”



Me:

 

[Tribal Outkast]

Kinda sad that you have to ask will it last. I mean we are the main reason Y&R has been around for a thousand years. We can make sure this show works

 

[True Blue Moon]

Feel like this is going to be good

 

[Tair]

Who watches daytime soap operas anymore? It's too late for this. Could've worked in the 90s/00s or early 2010s at the latest. 2025?

1 and done.
