The TV Source Podcast talks about Days of our Lives’ wild week, Mariah’s coming out on The Young and the Restless, and a huge stunt on UK soap opera Hollyoaks.

Check out a preview of the rundown for the episode taped November 5, 2017:

The Carlivati Effect on NBC’s Days of our Lives – Executive producer Ken Corday has high praise for the show’s new head writer, and it was legitimate for a change. Where does Paul go post-Will reveal? Preview of the controversial shooting storyline with JJ and Theo. Also DAYS’ taping schedule.
Mariah’s Coming out on The Young and the Restless – An unexpected but well appreciated non—promoted development with Mariah Copeland’s (Camryn Grimes) coming out to her mother Sharon. It’s hard to admit when you’ve fallen for a friend, especially a friend you shouldn’t. How did Y&R handle the scenes? We talk about the strengths (and weaknesses) of the material; the extended time given for the scenes and the juxtaposition with the club fire.
No one does stunts like quite like UK soap Holloaks. Though we discuss the hyped school fire, we also give reasons why for why fans should give the genre across the pond a chance.
Things We Want More Of – Do we want more romance? Do we want more diversity? Do we want more drama? A brief teaser of a later show topic where discuss the kind of stories/emotions we want to feel from our soaps.
