I was a rare Nuke fan, as I liked Reid and I saw him as the analog to Damian in the Lily/Holden relationship - a very interesting long term potential spoiler. I wasn't happy with how they made Noah a jerk during the blindness, but ATWT writers always made Holden and Jack insta jerks to facilitate supercouple breakups. I think it was a shame that the show was canceled because Luke could have been torn for years, and I'm sure the story would have played out differently if they hadn't been under pressure to wrap things up. (Incidentally, Maddie was 1000x more interesting and likable than Gabi.) But Atwts was very good at breaking up supercouples and then having them pursue other relationships only to find their way back to each other. They did that over decades for several couples. They did that all the time, but Days has always been crap at figuring out what to do with supercouples once they get seriously together.

But the point is well-made that we all know that Brant D. is filming prime time stuff and won't be available to be a long term threat to Wilson, so that ties the writers down a bit unless they want to recast. I like the idea that Sonny finds someone else since Will has a plot of his own that is canvas wide. I'd like to see a spoiler love interest for Sonny that's tied to another storyline so Sonny's life doesn't revolve around Will.
