Welcome to the official pity party thread.
You are cordially invited to lament, bemoan, and rant about the impending departure of my favorite Days actor and character, Jay Kenneth Johnson who plays Philip.
When: Now Until April 20th and Beyond
Where: Here.
Why: Because we need a place to express our emotions and support one another during this difficult time.
Note: This thread will automatically close on April 30th. Just kidding. It will never close.

I am so sad! I have noticed that they are doing the same thing to JKJ that they did to Mark and Shelley. Not a lot of screen time and no story to really speak of. He is there just to prop the others up. It would be nice if the writers wrote him a really great exit story and it just doesn't seem to look like they are going to do that. They are just giving him fluff and filler. Booo!!!!  |

We even have hardly seen Philip the last couple of weeks...I guess they are starting to prep us as they did with Stephanie...
For our morning, I have brought some bagels (NJ style, not Texas) with lots of fixin's...(cream cheese, butter, lox, peanut butter & jelly etc).
We can play a game of washers, which is a popular backyard game they play in Missouri which is where Jay was born...

I brought along two kinds of chocolates from my daughter's chocolate fundraiser,almond and caramel dark chocolate.
You know...I think one of the things I love most about Jay is he's got that whole country boy,"surfer dude"thing going on.It's an appealing combo IMO.

I've brought some Hershey's bliss... not that I'm feeling blissful, but nostalgic for happier times. |

And I have chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream! My favorite!
April 19th is coming wayyy too fast. I had hope for a great Philip exit story, but instead, they have him doing nothing. It didn't even show him yesterday after his scene with Melanie.

It's a shame that Dildo had to ruin that scene.... Loved having Justin & Philip together.
Chocolates & ice cream? Ok, it's almost lunch time... let's see, we need a nice pizza smothered in extra cheese, some sausage & pepperoni... It will be delivered soon!

Exactly! Even towards the END they can't give him a story line or do service to his character. They can't indicate a story or indicate a recast. They can't do some justice or show any benefit or any gratitude for the years of quality and service that he's put into the role. It's as if he's a second grade extra background character and prop for Melanie's meltdown, and it's absolutely disgusting, IMHO how they're treating Jay and Phil's character.
I'm really disappointed. It's not the 19th, but I really hope that they do right by him and not just continue to use him as a prop for Melanie. He deserves better than that.

Pass 'em on this way Mrsmahaffy!As my daughter would say,"This BLOWS!"Isn't he a fan favorite?Yet they do NOTHING!They'll probably just have him fade into the background never to be heard from or spoken of again....We all know how Days likes to do that.

I need something much stronger than chocolate for this situation.
Breaking out the hard liquor.

D -
I believe Philip is a brandy drinker.
Jay likes gin.
Let's live dangerously and mix 'em.
