Kristen was on nearly every day during that late 2012-2013 timeframe tho. She had more airtime than some of the characters who had been on canvas for over a decade.

Yea, that doesn't compare to the 7-8 yrs of her previous stint but it's not exactly chump change either. A lot could have been done for Kristen during her return but there was no real plan for her and it showed. The so called "revenge" plot dragged on for months at a time. It was ridiculous
But her s/l was still more enjoyable to me than other storylines in the last few years.
I think the biggest mistake Days has made was not trying hard enough to keep her on the show for longer.
I think they did try hard. She was the one who said Kristen being on the frontburner 24/7 with no breaks was exhausting. Hence why she left. That's was on Eileen, unfortunately. Days wanted to extend her contract.

I think the biggest mistake they made was not taking the time to hash out what they wanted from Kristen's return and how the other characters would fit into it. The writers basically fell into Bristen because they didn't have a clear path for Kristen herself; whereas the character should have been with EJ, John & Marlena, they instead, moved her away and gave her a rivalry with Brady that lasted 3 weeks before the literally fell in bed with each other.

And in the meantime, everyone was dumbed down to the point where Marlena was made to look crazy for still being suspicious of Kristen.

CS: "Paul just wants Sonny to be happy even if its not with him."
Hmmmmm
I could see Paul trying to hook Sonny up with Derrick
Why any of them would be with Derrick is beyond me. Didn't that reporter guy tell them Derrick was the one who told him about the affair? I wouldn't want anything to do with someone responsible for that, lol

Well, lower guarantee, higher rate for an episode could have done wonders I think.

What ED needs is a good story and frankly speaking it's not like she's doing anything spectacular on Y&R either. Ashley has been seriously underused for a very long time.

I don't care if it's Nicole or Chloe, but this show needs to stick one of them with Brady and leave it at that. I am tired of the revolving door of women in his life. He is one of those that has chemistry with anyone.

I think they are trying to make it not so obvious with Paul and Sonny but it kind of is. I guess, maybe, I don't know. Lol

And JJ is hazy? Is that because he gets shot? Or was he drugged on his trip to see about his sister. See...now that ONE statement from CM makes me interested in the story. That was all that was needed!

Writers, Just give Nicole a baby and please don't destroy the Abigail character completely.

I think it has more to do with the fact that the actresses keep leaving, I loved him with Sarah J. Brown.. I forgot the name of her character but I did like them together but she left as did Lindsay Hartley, Eileen Davidson, Molly Burnett... and the list keeps going.

I do hope it's Chloe!! I've been wanting for a long time for them to give Eric and Nadia a chance, cause I've always felt like they had great chemistry. I enjoy him with Ari too but it is Nadia's turn!!

Sarah J Brown played Madison. I wish she would come back as a ghost (like Jack) and haunt Brady just for the hell of it. But knowing that idiot he'll probably fall in love with her again.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I think only ED and MB left (MB had a 6month contract). LH and SJB were let go.

Yeah, I think she made a mistake by going back there. No story, no man, no airtime. Well, Eileen, you wanted a slower pace...is this slow enough for ya? ;) Nah, I love Eileen, but I admit I was pissed that after winning an Emmy on Days she promptly turns around and signs with Y&R literally the next day. :-/

When she came to Days, she had a pay cut. That's why she asked for a bigger guarantee. She probably gets the same paycheck for 8 ep/month on Y&R as for 14 ep/month on Days. Or something like that.
And maybe Y&R will write something interesting for her one day too lol.
I'd give anything to have her on Days though 😊

I could be wrong, but I thought she was already working at YR or had already signed with them when she won the emmy.

I think she signed at Y&R "in secret" and then waited until after she won her Emmy for "Days" to announce her decision. And she announced it literally the next day. I didn't like the way the whole thing played out. :-/

With Days stupid shooting schedule it's kinda hard to tell which happened first sometimes. I remember her not renewing her contract in July of 2013 and then in August she signed on for a short-term stint on Y&R. Details about her new Y&R contract get fuzzy for me after that because they STILL didn't do anything with Ashley so I just tuned out on the character.

Edit: Just double checked and yea, ED officially announced her leave in July 0f 2013 and then announced a short Y&R return in August. She was then brought back to Days in January for some Summer episodes. May she was nominated for the Emmy, June 17 she announced a new two-year contract with Y&R, and June 22 she won the emmy.

I wonder what is going on with JJ? Whatever it is it sounds like CM is happy with it. I hope JJ/Gabi are still together and that Chad/Abby are back together.

It sounds like Paul and Sonny aren't together. I wonder if Paul pushes Sonny away? Thinking that he is better off.

Even though I think Brady could use a break in the romance department it is interesting to see that he isn't pining away after Theresa. My guess is that he will hook up with Chloe. IF the baby is really Nicole's then I wonder if Brady finds it out and either keeps it from Nicole or tries to get Chloe to tell Nicole?

The JJ stuff does sound interesting, but I wish he'd get a different pairing, Jabi do not work for me and it's not just the lack of focus/story, there is no chemistry imo and the characters are boring together.

Casey sounded exciting for what's coming up when was on AfterBuzz over the summer. Like in a it's the best story I've had sort of way.
