Jason: There has been rumbling of Chandler Massey returning as Will and the rumbling seemed to be a bit legit at one point - i.e., negotiations between his people and the Days execs, etc. that type of thing. Is it possible that CM's Will is one of the 2017 returns?

I hope not. He can stay gone.

I respect Marland's rules, but the part about keeping characters for a specific amount of time (6 months in the 80s/90s, not sure that's still doable in this more fast paced time) always gets me. Especially when it comes to a character like Deimos. There's just nothing redeeming about him. I just don't see how 3-6 months would change that. His back story is absurd, so there's really nothing to go on there. Deimos would be an example of a character where I just couldn't stick true to that rule. There are others currently on the canvas. Deimos is just an example.
Oh, Deimos is awful. 3 month build with a payoff of him dead via a whodunnit could be satisfying. Tie his connection to Bo's death back in. Have various tense confrontations between him and various Salemites. Have the thin facade of him being at peace with the rest of the Kiriakis clan crack. Is it worth the three months of airtime? Maybe not. But the only time VI is even vaguely interesting as Deimos is when he's being a shit. So have him own it and end up dead.

No to Chelsea I don't get the hype She reminded me of Melanie at times..
The only Days character I hated more than Chelsea was Jan Spears.. I liked Melanie way more than Chelsea.

Heather Lindell was a much better actress than RM and MB.

GEORGE DEL HOYO LEADS SEPTEMBER EPISODE RANKINGS...TIES MIKE FARRELL FOR MOST MONTHLY LEADS BY A RECURRING ACTOR

Posted Image

George Del Hoyo (Orpheus) has tied Mike Farrell (Scott) as just the second recurring actor to lead the monthly rankings twice. Farrell led in April 1969 & June 1969; Del Hoyo led in November 1986 & September 2016. The only other recurring actors to have led the monthly rankings, one time each, are: Frank Ashmore (Brent, 2/81); Tracey Bregman (Donna, 12/78); Bennye Gatteys (Susan, 4/74); Andrea Hall (Samantha, 10/77); Clayton Landey (Gregory, 10/90); Jocelyn Somers (Jean, 11/77); and Kaye Stevens (Jeri, 3/75).

I wish they could keep George Del Hoyo around, hoping his character isn't killed. It's refreshing to have such a commanding actor on the show. He reminds me of Eileen Davidson, truly capturing no matter the material.

As far as returns, I'm thinking Brandon (Matt Cedeno)makes an appearance. Isn't Abe shot this week and Nicole is about to have a child. Also Craig Wesley I'm sure. I would prefer Calliope, Eugene, Kristen, Vivian to be honest. Someone a little more exciting.

MONTHLY CONTRACT CAST CREDITS PROJECT...

"Days" history fans, I'm putting the finishing touches on a look at the monthly contact cast credits (as aired) for each month of the 1980's.

In addition to tracking all the arrivals and departures, these lists will also have all the name changes for weddings, etc...

One of the last big projects left to research! Look for it soon.

"DAYS OF OUR LIVES" TURNS 51 IN NOVEMBER...CHRISTIE CLARK, CHARLES SHAUGHNESSY, PATRIKA DARBO, LEANN HUNLEY, PATSY PEASE, AUSTIN PECK, GREG VAUGHAN RETURN...YOU NEVER KNOW WHO MIGHT SHOW UP NEXT!

Posted Image


So we are in the 50th birthday period up to until November 8th, which Days will turn 51. That was the reason why some were confused of who was coming to Days during the 50th birthday. Anyway, I am glad to see more returning after the 50th birthday. Hopefully we see Frankie back for Jennifer....
