The Days

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.

When I first saw a preview for the days I thought, oh great another dumb over-dramatic T.V. show just like the rest. Since I had nothing better to do I watched it and was surprised, I loved it!!! It has a different air to it yet it keeps viewers interested. This show is probably my favorite show of all time.

ABC left us hanging with the last episode and I am dying to know what happens next. Here is the basis for the show. The Days is a normal American family, you know, Mom, Dad, 3 kids. They also struggle with normal family problems, with some abnormalities. I'm not going to ruin what happens for everyone so I will not reveal much more. I really wish ABC would bring back the days because in my opinion, it blows Rodney and whatever other shows they have out now away by a mile. I would recommend this show to anyone who loves a good drama~

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.

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??

Its Amazing when a good show like this comes along that has a certain something to it that you can't explain but makes you love the show. I caught the premiere last night and was majorly impressed by the show. This show shows you that not every family is perfect and that all family's face a dilemma/challenge at some point in time. Evan Peters especially because his character is realistic in the since where some teenage boys are moody, depressed, misunderstood, etc. The acting is superb and its just a great show to watch, I hope this show lasts for a long time because i could see how this show could evolve over the years. Recommended for adults and teenagers! ~!
