Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
She already looks pretty pregnant on screen...
Shocker! A pregnant woman looks pregnant. :rolleyes: That's not an excuse for her to not have a storyline and I'm pretty sure that's discrimination. Pregnant actresses have always been involved in stories and some have even led the show, most recently AZ and AS. NB's maternity leave would most likely affect episodes airing in 2018, so there is no reason for her to be on the sidelines this fall.
I actually think this might be the issue. I don't think Days has been interested in using her for a while, but they can't drop her because she's pregnant. I don't think they want to get rid of her because she's pregnant, but I think they might not be able to get rid of her because she's pregnant.

I guess I'm missing something but why all the focus on Memphis? Is that where Rolf has supposedly been hiding out all these years? Not quite sure why Ron picked that city....

Regarding Memphis:
An audition for "Elvis" was found for a script airing on 10/31. He's talking to multiple characters who are looking for Stefano. Elvis believes he is Elvis Presley brought back from the dead by Dr. Monica Darver. (character names are sometimes changed in audition scripts)

I'm very nervous about the JJ/Theo storyline. I can see Ron and KC thinking this is a good opportunity to write something socially relevant, but I just don't see how it can work in execution. There is no realistic way to deal with a police officer shooting a young black man without bringing race into the story, but how do they do that? I can't imagine JJ is going to be portrayed as shooting Theo because of his race. Even if they try to be more nuanced and tried to attribute JJ's actions to unconscious racial bias, it still tarnishes the character. But if they don't do that, how do they avoid making JJ the victim of unfounded accusations of racism and trivializing/dismissing the very real-world concerns about police abuse toward minority communities? I suspect the storyline would work better if the shooter was a short-term character.
I don't think Days is going to do much with the racial aspect; it's just not that kind of show. However, I do think that JJ could survive as a character if they said he shot Theo due to unconscious racial bias if they also had him do a lot of soul searching, take responsibility and work to overcome his bias. It could be the sort of storyline that soaps used to embrace.
I honestly don't see a reason to write the story if race isn't a key part of it. Race is the primary reason that police shootings have become a larger part of the societal conscience over the last few years. To gloss over it would be an obvious cop-out, for lack of a better word, on a part of the writers.

But...yeah. I can also see them trying to mitigate it due to their past handling of anything "controversial," and that's one of the reasons soaps are in the shape they're in. The networks and TV execs are too chicken to try anything that might make some viewers uncomfortable.

The point someone else made about Days not having any black writers is also an issue. I sincerely hope they consulted with some people with lived experience, including both black individuals and some individuals working in law enforcement.

William Utay was on set filming as Rolf on May 15 or 16.
http://daytimeroyaltyonline.com/single/?p=11134305&t=11029572

That was the first clue, but he could have started filming earlier than that.

So he will start airing on (or before!) Oct 20.

I'm sure he didn't get the part, but I wonder if it was because he didn't know the correct pronunciation of Stefano..

I've heard several people in the past using the same pronunciation, the way one would say Joseph Stefano, the screenwriter for Psycho..

Quoting limited to 3 levels deephe thought Sonny was a player
That doesn't mean he's a player though. I highly doubt Sonny was dating multiple people at a time for sex, lol
First let me start saying paul less screw up that will and probably better i actually think paul deserve better than sonny and if Arianna was not part of sonny life nobody should give attitude on sonny marrying paul but since Arianna is part of sonny life he should get attitude from someone of will family
It because will had problem with paul despite will was on wrong not paul it does not changed that fact will will not want paul to be part of arianna life.so unless sonny stop being arianna life sonny deserves any attitude he get from will family for not wanting someone will hated be part of arianna
Especially sonny is not arianna bio dad and will family can go to court and cause problems and can try to keep him from arianna
And at least Lucas will not go behind sonny back unlike sonny that pretend he okay for his mom marring lucas and agree while he encourage his dad to stop the wedding and get lucas left at altar
It's not Lucas's choice who Gabi her mother or Sonny her father raise her with they have custody .and if Lucas is back full time to being a drunk even less choice.plus Paul and Gabi are great friends and there's a custody agreement regarding ari

One thing I do know is that the one site I usually go to for early spoilers, still has it listed that a Stefano(back from the dead) story IS in deed in the works(or at least the tease of it....why? that makes no sense...How do you bring someone back from the dead who never really died?). The spoiler also refers to a crazy lunatic who "actually" thinks he's Elvis, this was advertised as a Halloween story, I believe this audition clip is a part of that story.

Are we suppose to think this guy is Stefano? That Idea is way Tooo out field. He's too old to be an EJ recast...My "very" first thought was this meant to be the "Pawn" parallel from the mid 80's. Just like what the writers did with John Black...let the audience guess who this "legacy" is.

If Tim Abelle IS cast in this roll...boy oh boy do I see a Bo Brady recast in him.

IDK what site that is, but I can even tell by that summary that that site doesn't know what it's talking about.

I'm trying to figure out when we will first see Rolf.

The "Elvis" audition was uploaded to Vimeo May 12.
The script mentioned Elvis Presley brought back from the dead by Dr. Monica Darver. (but Monica Darver may have been a fake name in the audition script).

Rolf is a character who would be involved in a "back from the dead" story.

I can't remember why we thought this Elvis scene would air on October 31? Was that correct?

We know William Utay was on set May 15 or 16 (whichever day they had the cake for Ken Corday). But he could have started taping before that. Which means he's airing by Oct 20 or earlier.

And from all of that, I'm trying to figure out when the Memphis storyline starts.

Maybe Rolf is the unexpected guest at the double wedding? It's supposed to happen the last week of September or the first week of October.
