They released a promo for Jackee. I am so excited about this. I love her!
She will be playing Lani's Aunt Paulina.

I'm... less enthusiastic about this. I have a hunch she's going to be a big, broad comic character a la Susan or Hattie or Leo (this is based on... basically just anything I've ever seen Jackee Harry do) and those are usually swings and a miss for me. And she's gotten a lot of fanfare, and I think a ton of focus on a newcomer rarely works out in endearing them to the audience. New people should come on subtly and slowly endear themselves to the viewers and then, before you know you want it, suddenly they're knee-deep in story.

That's an interesting and take and I can totally see what you mean and I do agree in certain situations. We all know how annoying it has been watching Days and they shove a newcomer down our throats and give them way too much screen time.
I have very fond memories of watching Jackee on 227 when I was a kid. I thought that show was hilarious and loved it. Regina King was so cute on it! But I digress. I enjoyed Jackee on the show and I am excited to see what she brings to Days. I feel like the show could use something different. Everything is the same right now.
Every single scene on Days is people sitting around talking about what happened in the past. It's become incredibly boring. Yesterday's scenes at the pub with Steve, Kayla and Roman were PAINFUL!!!

I’m actually excited about Jackee joining Days. Hopefully she will make Lani and Eli a little more interesting. They are so boring together. I actually liked them better apart. Especially when she was trying to get even with Gabi.

I really like Eli. I think he has the potential to be a great leading man hero of Days like Steve or Bo. Perhaps not as iconic as them but I can see them moving in the same direction with him.
Lani I don't dislike her, but she is a little dull and unreasonable. I hope Jackee spices her up!

So far I'm not sure if I like her character. She's definitely provided some comedic moments but can be over the top at times.

I like her. But so far I am not sure about some of the content/storyline direction.
Everything with the godmother stuff was hilarious.

With what’s going on in the real world these days, some Jackee humor is much appreciated. After all, didn’t we all love Calliope Jones?

Her humour is much needed, I agree!
