I Didn't Expect the Camp
I've never seen Days of Our Lives but thought I'd check this one out because I like the silly guilty pleasures of soap operas.
I admire the writers for soaps. The fact they can keep the storylines going for ages when most issues can be resolved by asking the correct question 2 seconds later intrigues me. As someone who knows nothing about these characters going in, the writers have done a good job in bringing viewers up to speed in the character vignettes of the first episode.
My 7-star rating is for the acting being pretty bad; I expected a little better. This is a soap opera so if you don't have ability to get past watching a soap, you probably won't enjoy this.
If you're a soap opera fan this will be a silly pleasure to watch with your favorite snack and tune out of life for about 50 minutes.
The storyline of season 1 is fun and I'll keep watching it for the campy-ness, hoping the acting improves.
