Days of Our Lives Spoilers: Ron Carlivati Pitched Time Jump At Competing Soaps – Conditions Not Quite Right

Days of Our Lives spoilers reveal that the time jump is not Ron Carlivati’s first attempt to bring the concept to daytime TV. The head writer suggested the idea to two other soaps before he got the green light to make it happen on the NBC soap opera. Keep reading to get all the details.

Time Jump Pitched Before

In an interview with TV Insider, Carlivati explained that this was not his first attempt to bring the idea of a daytime time jump to life. The head writer pitched the idea for One Life to Live when it was still on the air. He also thought it would be a great idea for General Hospital. However, for undisclosed reasons, it ended up not happening.

Ron actually wanted to do a fast-forward when he first came on board. However, the conditions weren’t quite right, so he was patient. Now the time has come to make his vision a reality as we leap into the future by exactly one year.

DOOL Spoilers: Concept Explanation

It is impossible to please everyone and that includes soap fans. While some viewers are excited about the possibilities, others haven’t warmed up to the idea. Carlivati explained that a time jump was a way to do a reboot on the daytime TV show. This could be good news for those that complain that the storylines are getting stale and being drawn out for too long.

“It’s this idea of almost a reboot thing where you can suddenly just take stories to a new place. It allows you to jettison some stuff, start new stuff… “’OK, if a year went by, what could have changed? What’s changed since Salem? Who’s together? Who’s apart, who’s alive, who’s dead?’”

Days of Our Lives spoilers indicate that Jennifer Horton (Melissa Reeves) will find out what has happened during the past year. She just woke up from a coma and missed out on a lot. Just like she will be learning everything that has taken place, viewers will find out right along with her.

Days of Our Lives Spoilers: What to Expect

As for what else to expect, Hattie Adams (Deidre Hall) will be coming back to Salem. So will Clyde Weston (James Read), which could complicate Ben Weston’s (Robert Scott Wilson) life. Someone went to prison for pushing Jennifer off a balcony, but it wasn’t Princess Gina (Kristian Alfonso). Also, Kristen DiMera (Stacy Haiduk) is no longer living in town, so whatever happened with “Bristen” and the baby she was carrying?

Fans will have to keep watching the NBC soap opera to discover what the writers have in store for us. While the time jump is a huge change, perhaps it is just what was needed to revitalize the long-running daytime series.
