Slightly OT but..I love Kassie as an actress ...but I cannot imagine her Eve in a scene with Charles Shaughnessy's Shane referring to him as her "daddy"

Not enough of an age difference at all. It would come off as ridiculous
Charles S is 61 yrs old
Kassie is 55 yrs old
Charlotte Ross is 48 yrs old

What about imagining Eve and Shane as lovers?

Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
Certainly actors leaving and other circumstances part from the norm. Could be Marci and Billy don't have the instant chemistry we hope for. And agree they have gotten away from the super couple formula over the years. But I still expect couples at their level - and I consider CHABBY one of them - to eventually end up back together.

As to storyline, I don't see what has been given away here. We can already see from what has aired that there will be some level of connection between Chad and Abby. She had a crush on him or whatever we want to call it years earlier so this isn't entirely out of left field. I have no idea at this point how the story will proceed and what that may look like. Sometimes it is more apparent than other times. I could always see through TOMSELL's stories well before they played out. But a tweet from Billy saying he would make his way home or even something as blunt as CHABBY are end game doesn't spoil the story for me. Just my opinion of course.

I certainly see less given away here than knowing an actor is leaving the show and yet we sit for six months waiting for it to happen.
TBH, IDK why you still expect that with couples. If you look back at Days the last 15 years, it just hasn't been the case. Part of the storytelling process on soaps is the "will they or won't they." And that's part of it even if you're pretty sure (but can never been 100% positive) that the couple will end up together. What Billy keeps doing is taking the question out of it. Meanwhile, it completely ruins the build up to the story. What's the point of inserting Gabi if it's not going to go anywhere anyway? And for people who might have actually preferred Chabi to Chabby, he's basically told them not to bother.

The 6 month early casting news is problematic. No doubt about it. That doesn't make this less problematic.



You made some valid points if the couple would get back together or not. If it was JARLENA, STAYLA and even BOPE, they will always end up together...I think...People want the same thing with other couples. I was hoping that ERICOLE ended up together. Others still wants LUMI to end up together...........if only the writers knew what was in our hearts. :wub2:

I just have to laugh when anyone says Chad and Abby have to be or will be "end game". First of all, it's a continuing drama, so there is no end game...unless Days is cancelled. Secondly, Chad and Abby have been (were) a couple for a very short time, and the first strike against them has already happened... One of the actors in the pairing left and is being recast. Which almost means they basically have to start from scratch, since actor chemistry is a huge chunk of a couple's success. They are also relatively young so chances are neither character has yet to meet their "soulmate". They have way too many years of conflict to go through to ever have anyone think they are end game, if they are treated the way most soap couples are. Plus, shows like Days don't know how or want to create couples that they can never get rid of anymore. That means being held hostage by actors, and forcing writers to write a certain way for that pairing, and Corday can't seem to hire writers that will do that, and he hates actors who become so popular in a pairing that it makes contract negotiations a pain.

And you just never know what BTS "drama" is going to take a couple down overnight, i.e.Nicole/Eric.

There are just way too many variables that go against soap couples to ever guarantee any kind of certainty of being end gamers.

I, personally, think Chad/Abby has a decent shot to be a long term couple, but not until many, many more years of on again off again drama.

I agree with everything you said. But it applies not only to Days. All the other soaps do the same as well, some of them create couples just to destroy them, and they do that left and right. IMO Days is more consistent but still no "end games" there. Every more experienced soap actor knows that.

If Kate Mansi ever was to return, I would consider her and Billy's Chabby an endgame. Which doesn't mean there wouldn't be any obstacles and third parties in their way. They had the IT-factor I personally haven't seen in new soap couples in ages.

But I wouldn't call "Chabby" necessarily an endgame. That has more to do with the chemistry between actors. When Marci steps in, she won't be Abby Deveraux to me. She'll be just some new gal called Abby and I'm open to any pairing that works for the best.. She and Billy have to win me over first.

Let's not be hasty! GH is about to get rid of BC and I don't want to have to endure VJ over there! Can't she just find another job? Outside of acting?

Did anybody watch this? I might eventually, but I haven't seen any rumblings anywhere so I'm assuming he didn't tease anything of any importance.

I realize not everyone consider's CD's Chad to be important, but I do and I liked CD's and KM's Chabby. I have already liked two versions of Chabby, so I have high hopes for this version. And no, I would never say they are endgame, but I truly believe they are soulmates.

Lol. I love the ongoing "JJ doesn't text enough [when he's looking for his sister's corpse]" and "JJ doesn't spend enough time with Gabi [when he gets called into work to save the city from psychos]" excuse.

Gabi always was very selective with which facts she wanted to look at.
Speaking of JJ looking for the psychos, one of them wants chad's baby correct? I think it's hilarious that the writers have him randomly bumping into Gabi and getting stuck with her etc etc all in the name of "bonding" or whatever this is instead of protecting that kid's life like nothing else matters.

Yeah, I can't believe JJ hasn't moved her in his house so he can pay for her entire life. Bad JJ!
