I cannot even begin to tell you how many times i've watched this video. As sad and heartbreaking as it is, it's also VERY POWERFUL......filled with all the angst, anger, confusion, betrayal, & LOVE...... ABSOLUTELY one of YOUR BEST montages ever made. BRAVO!!!!!
Aww, this is so beautiful! Mahtavaa työtä :). I didn't even think it was possible to ruin every single storyline they had going on but somehow they managed to do that.
You've done it again!! I love this montage to pieces! It's so emotional,angsty, and sad all at once. It makes me wish the writers had never broken J&M up. At least with past story-lines you always saw a glimmer of hope that J&M would get back together. But the writers made this storyline so out of character that it seems almost impossible for them to ever get back together. But, I loved that you'd made this storyline so worth watching in your montage. :)
Someone please bring back late 90s Jarlena or 1986... Eek. Can't believe what they've done to this couple. I loved Marlena and John ever since watching days in the 90s with my grandparents.. And whenever I was home sick from school. And always loved that they seemed like soul mates and that their love could overcome anything. The storyline the last 1-2 years has negated everything they've built the last almost 30 years!! Real John Black would fight for Marlena always. And that him having feelings for Kristen thing, what a joke! We need some 'true love can overcome any obstacle' storylines not the mess that's on ATM!
Wow Hanna. This just tore on my heart strings. Excellent job yet again. What have the writers done? This is heart breaking. They must see this and what they have ruined.
Hanna... I love you. That's it. You totally just broke my heart...no wait...the writer's broke my heart and this is the tissue and cup of tea that makes crying okay. Thank you hun.
Even though a reunion (presumably) is happening at the end of this month, I still love this video so, so much. It shows the angst, anger, and love that we should have seen in J&M during this ridiculous storyline.
+ostrovisky Hey wow I can reply to your comments? I'm 99% sure that wasn't possible in the past lol. Thanks for all the sweet comments you've left on my 'tages over the years, I greatly appreciate them :)
IIttuJM UA-cam sucks lmao I can barely even reply to people anymore tbh. Anyway, still love this vid! 💗Also your vids introduce me to the best songs so thanks for that, haha.
Creative license is ALWAYS good. Montagers always seem to be able to piece it together better than the writers can. But I've said it before and I will continue to: as terrible as the writing may be, the actors always make it work. Deidre, Drake and Eileen did amazing with this patchwork of a storyline. And as always, you did great showcasing it. : )
This had to be the hardest clip EVER to watch. Broke my heart reliving these scenes. We can only hope the J&M we love will find each other again and it will be better than ever.
IIttuJM As you should be! :) I'm a huge fan of Deidre's. (Love Drake too.) She somehow always finds a way to bring depth to the terrible writing in other ways, and this video brought that all together and took it to another level. THANK YOU!
IIttuJM And I'm back watching this yet again. :) I'm glad these writers are gone. (Although you made the complete bs they wrote look great with this vid. Lol) But I can't help but be worried about what the new writers have in mind for them. Higley being one of them terrifies me. I'm afraid to get my hopes too high, but at least it's a change. Btw, can you tell me where the scenes at 1:28 and 2:14 came from? I saw them once when they aired, but I haven't been able to find them since...probably because I've tried to repress most of the storylines since 1999 - most especially this one. :P
I agree with Marlena I’ve been grieving a lot about family Then that one day someone made me happy for 2 years then she left and I let her I let her go 2 of the hardest and saddest then when I really needed her the most she never came back I don’t know how to move from that it’s a good thing I got another dream , I’m never good at being in love and I’m done
The writers should know the history of J&M best super couple ever on days ! How could you have John betray Marlena like that with Kristen ? It was heartbreaking I just seen the montages I wasn’t watching days at that time I had lost my husband and was grieving . I just know the history of days and J& M the chemistry between them is magical please don’t split them up again.
beautiful video but so sad also...Kristen is supposed to be coming back again & she's gonna kidnap someone, so I sure hope J&M can work this out, come on writers smarten up!
Horrible story line and the writers sucked for breaking up the best super couple to ever exist. I’m so glad they realized that keeping them together is better than apart. Love my Marlena and John, Jarlena ❤️we as fans deserve to be angry at those so called writers.
How could’ve the writers to this it broke our hearts along with Marlena. I didn’t like John’ look on his face when Marlena said, she was sure going to try. He just seemed smug just my take on it.
ähhh.. En oo kattonut päikkäreitä sitte Johnin halvaantumisen jälkeen ja tuskin tulen katsomaankaan jos tällä lailla ne aikoo jatkaa.Onko koko sarjassa yhtäkään pariskuntaa joka onnellisesti enään on yhdessä? Hieno video kylläkin!! :)
kiitti :) Will&Sonny taitaa olla ainoat.. Ja nekin on ollu sarjassa aika taka-alalla sen jälkee ku Chandler jätti sarjan.. Ihan ihme touhua kyllä. Tää meno on tavallaa jopa pahempaa kuin Higleyn aikana..
I’ve never been able to watch this story. I completely skip over it. That’s not my couple. I’ve seen enough montages though to get the idea. Beautiful video though.
Thank you. A wise decision, I'm still trying to erase it from my memory. But I must admit that storyline (or should I say the era starting from there) has ruined J&M to me to some extent.. Perhaps not the storyline itself but the bad writing continued for years, thus D&D didn't share much meaningful screen time together and for whatever reason, IMO, their chemistry's been a little off ever since.. There are still singular moments when it is there (eg. the first scenes together after his head injury or the 2018 wedding), but those moments seem to be few and far between.. And it's not only the writing not allowing them meaningful moments, but they're lacking the playfulness and little touches they used to do whenever they were sharing a scene together..
@@IIttuJM I honestly think the lack is just due to the bad writing. The show has become somewhat cheesy, it lacks depth. So If analyzing it I think it’s hard to have those meaningful moments they’re so well known for when the story isn’t there to support it. But once in a while a writer seems to remember and we get glimpses. His accident, the wedding, her shooting, the return of Orpheus, even the horrific Stevano story. So I don’t really watch on the daily but I return for those moments.
@@IIttuJM I was wondering if it was just me that felt that way about the damage bad writing does to J and M over the long run. I’ve never seen this storyline, but going back to the 2005 storyline featuring John and Kate, did it for me. Sad to hear that it didn’t get much better from then on out, although I’m sure there were nice moments… If it weren’t for Drake and Deidre, and the strength of their performances, I don’t think J and M would have survived all of the terrible writing. Thankfully they did, and thankfully, they were able to maintain a loyal fan base. They’re still my faves. And thankfully, they inspired creators like you to create such wonderful montages!
@@dandewashington luckily there were good singular moments, too, over the years (btw 2008 NuJohn storyline is one of my favorites, at least till the point whoever the ghostwriter was was writing for them). But so much time got wasted as well, including a great deal of Drake's final year on the show. That's just unforgivable 😞
@@IIttuJM Yes. The singular moments are what keeps/kept us from walking away completely. I’ve seen bits and pieces of that 2008 story and thought it had good material for DHs to work with. So, I liked what I saw. It’s so frustrating to think about all the time that was wasted. I’ve been enjoying Drake’s final performances of the past couple of years and wanted to see more of him, along with Deidre, on screen. I am heartbroken that it’s come to an end. Thanks for your videos. They make me laugh. They make me cry. They make me nostalgic for better days.
omg! I've stopped watching...is this what they've done to the powerful J&M?! written them to get a divorce? Made him sleep with kristen? Wrecked everything?! oh my gosh!! I'm dying...it can't be. How? Whyyy? It isn't fair. Hanna this video is amazing but it broke my heart and continues to break my heart knowing that they're where they are...
why; that's a 64$ question.. And what makes everything so much more worse is that there are no innuendos about J&M being an endgame. They very likely will be, but the writers don't show any hope for a future reunion on screen. No longing looks, no dreams, no fantasies.. Just a shared scene full of mean coldness once a month and that's all the interaction we get after a +25-year-old lovestory based on unconditional love. I haven't watched Days for quite some time because of this shit (other stories are pure shit as well lol), but I assume that's what the producers of the show want, viewers abandoning Days. Or at least I cannot imagine any other reason for terrible storytelling. I haven't seen a single person, who would've thought this John/Marlena/Brady/Kristen story was a good one, on any forum.
IIttuJM This makes me sick. My heart aches because of this mess the writers now call Days. I'm not gonna lie, I'm surprised it still aires...the show is definitely ruined for me.
The writer should have never had John go so far with Kristen. It broke Marlena heart and tore them apart , the best super couple on Days I’ve been watching them since the 80’s. I know they got back together but it ruined the love story they had.
@@jandaugherty7648 I’ve never seen this storyline but gotten bits and pieces of it from comments on vids. Not knowing the full story, I always wondered if it was a matter of John working on a way to protect Brady (a grown, capable man by the way) from Kristen’s clutches. That’s the only thing that made (a tiny bit) of sense to me. BUT, you’re all saying he had ACTUAL feelings for Kristen and chose her over Marlena?? Please tell me I’m misunderstanding.
I cannot even begin to tell you how many times i've watched this video. As sad and heartbreaking as it is, it's also VERY POWERFUL......filled with all the angst, anger, confusion, betrayal, & LOVE...... ABSOLUTELY one of YOUR BEST montages ever made. BRAVO!!!!!
"Goodbye, John..." Goodbye, Drake Hogestyn, rest in peace 😭😭😭😭
@@serabella779 truly is heartbreaking 😭 💔 🕊️
@@IIttuJM It is, I still can't believe it
This was so heartbreaking to watch and so much better than the actual storyline was, well done!
OMG! LOVE IT! you actually make this storyline look good LOL how funny is that??? if only it was half as good as this montage! Great work as always!
Aww, this is so beautiful! Mahtavaa työtä :). I didn't even think it was possible to ruin every single storyline they had going on but somehow they managed to do that.

It literally felt like my heart was breaking while watching this. They have to get back together. :(
They were made for each other the best love story in Days history love them❤️
Quick question, do you know where I can find the clip at 0:45 and 0:48-0:52? Thank you!
(2007) Disc 5 - Clip 8 by JOHNandDOC
This had to be the hardest clip EVER to watch. Broke my heart reliving these scenes. We can only hope the J&M we love will find each other again and it will be better than ever.
fingers crossed for a writers change!
IIttuJM We can only hope and pray.
Omg my heart is broken, but this is beautiful Hanna
well, THAT was painful...but as always, it was perfect. ♥ I can't wait for this s/l to gain some momentum and hopefully end soon.
Is there anyway to watch these episodes
@@savageboy-nd5eethat’s the million dollar question. Sadly, the answer seems to be no. ☹️
Can I Watch the episodes When they fall in love again somewhere?
I love this montage!
Damn!! Way to make a crappy storyline interesting!! Love it so much!!
Is there any way to watch these episodes
Amazing Hanna !!!!
While I'm enraged beyond words at what the writers have done to J&M, this was an absolutely beautiful video! It brought tears to my eyes.
thank you :) I'm pretty fond of this montage as well.

Love, love, love John and Isabella.
I feel a lot for Marlena
When she said that she was with grief
I would feel the exact same way if someone did that and didn’t gave a dam😂😂
I agree with Marlena
I’ve been grieving a lot about family
Then that one day someone made me happy for 2 years then she left and I let her
I let her go 2 of the hardest and saddest then when I really needed her the most she never came back
I don’t know how to move from that it’s a good thing I got another dream ,
