Interesting. I've always been a fan of faster pacing.

I'm super glad they've stepped up the pace for story lines. I don't care if they drag out the lumi reunion, but it's a lot more fun to watch when the story lines around them and trucking along at a good pace. I'm loving that!

glad they have given up demon possession stories.whew

Interesting of how much the industry has changed since the days of soaps on radio.

Listened to the radio program and the chick did one of pet peeves. The 'could care less' instead of the correct 'couldn't care less'.

I like the faster pace, only thing is right now there are very few storylines besides Lumi and Will that I'm enjoying.

I'm thankful for faster pacing. It seems like so many people are complaining about it, but I appreciate it. Then again, I grew up watching Passions. If you thought Days had slow pacing....you haven't seen anything yet, lol.

^^I was use to the pacing with JER and even Sheffer and Dena's pacing wasn't bad, but her writing wasn't that good, so we got screwed either way.

I have problems with MarDar's writing and obviously their 'everything happens during sweeps' mentality and then nothing happens until the next sweeps comes around isn't helping. So I'm assuming that maybe that is the reason for the faster pacing we've been hearing....now I also don't need it to go at warp speed but I can't complain too much, at least we are getting movement...lol

The fast pacing is my preference. Things moved quickly in the 80's too, but the difference is that the soaps actually had budgets back then and went places and did exciting things, not to mention played a lot of music (and I don't mean the weird stuff that KC generates). I don't even have an issue with reflecting storylines, except when the year(s) they're reflecting (currently 2006-2007ish) made me (bh) (bh) the first time around. All I can say is that if we have to relive 2006, at least it's moving quickly this time.

I thought I heard Lucas tell Kate on Monday that Sami told him she was the mole a while ago. I wonder if time is moving faster than we think. Maybe what is just a few days to us is several weeks in Salem.

I tweeted a question to Ali this week and asked her how fast she thinks the clocks are currently moving in Salem. I think they're moving a couple weeks/Salem day, minimum.
