What's wrong with the Wednesday, September 6 thread, no thumbs or quote box?

I see, it must be closed until a little later.
I trashed the original and made a new thread. :) It works!!

Kassie tweeted that Eve's return date is October 30th. Not sure if that's new information.

It's not new info, but it's nice to be reminded. Plus, it could be new to some.

I wasn't watching when CM played Will, I only remember GW as Will, but I'm anxious to see his Will. It seems he's very popular in the role.
Decided to watch some clips on Youtube this weekend and I get the love. He is extremely compelling to watch and I get why people liked Will and Sonny so much- Chandler was so natural and made Freddie seem so as well. It is a HUGE contrast to how Freddie Smith and Christopher Sean relate after seeing Chandler and Freddie.
My first time watching days was the first day Sonny showed up. I didn't read the boards or spoilers then and thought at first they were going with Sonny and Chad which I thought would have been interesting since their families did not get along. I loved Will and Sonny's story and I think they had great chemistry together. I think CM kind of got tired of the role close to the end though. I was okay with GW to begin with but they totally destroyed Will by the time he was killed off. I was rooting for Sonny and Paul to be together. I like Sonny and Paul but they haven't been written very well as a couple until the last few weeks. I wish I was excited about Will coming back but I am not. Hopefully it will turn out better than I think it will.
I just hope CM has managed to lose the "smirk".It was driving me crazy so I was happy when GW took over the role although they really trashed the character before they killed him off.

East Bay Times interview with Frank Parker (Grandpa Shawn)'s wife...

Longtime ‘Days of Our Lives’ actor now calls Vacaville home

By MELISSA MURPHY | Vacaville Reporter

PUBLISHED: September 5, 2017 at 7:02 am | UPDATED: September 5, 2017 at 4:01 pm

More than 50 years ago “Days of Our Lives” aired its first episode.

Its well known opening phrase — “Like sands through the hourglass, so are the Days of Our Lives” — has remained unchanged for decades. Real fans know the story lines, characters and actors.

Frank Parker, an actor on the show for some 27 years, spoke with an Irish accent as he brought life to the role of Grandpa Shawn Brady from the early 1980s to 2008.

It might seem that a chance of running into one of those stars is one in a million, but fans don’t need to look farther than Vacaville.

Parker, who is 78 years old, spends every day with his wife, Vacaville resident Mary Garofalo Dunning.

She reminisced about life on the red carpet while he looked at her lovingly with soft blue eyes.

Parker retired in 2008 for health reasons.

While the two looked at photos including acting head shots from decades ago, Dunning looked at her husband and said, “You were young and cute then, now we’ll just go for handsome.”

Her joke elicited a smirk from the quiet, but engaged Parker.

The two met on a blind date in 2003. Dunning, who lost her husband the year before, was ready to get out of the house and meet people. She admitted she never watched soap operas, but tagged along anyway with a fellow nurse practitioner from Vacaville to a soap opera-centered event in Southern California that year. On the way there, she studied a TV Guide.

“When we met, I just had this feeling,” she said of her first encounter with Parker. “We went to dinner and danced afterward, but we kept dancing long after the music stopped.”

Things took off from there and they were married in 2005 and Parker moved to Vacaville, traveling to Los Angeles for show recordings. Parker always loved acting and singing, Dunning shared. He majored in acting at Carnegie Mellon University in Pennsylvania.

“He did really well for a long time,” Dunning said and further explained that soon after they were married, she was having to help him memorize his lines.

Even after retiring, however, Parker’s popularity remains.

For years when the couple would go out, people would recognize him because “Days of Our Lives” episodes are shown around the world. Dunning explained that a student going to school at the University of California, Davis came up and told them that the show helped her learn English.

“He was a real social person with them,” Dunning added. “They would shake his hand and he wouldn’t let them go.”

The two can be found around Vacaville on regular outings. Friday’s triple digit temperatures didn’t sway them from spending time together out on the town, possibly a stop at Fenton’s Creamery in the Nut Tree Plaza.

The couple also has regularly traveled to Southern California for show reunions.

“There was this big rope acting as a barrier between us and the fans,” Dunning recalled the 50th anniversary. “When Frank appeared everyone was yelling. They were shouting, ‘It’s Frank,’ and ‘God Bless You.’”

“It was amazing walking on the red carpet,” she said and added that at the end of the 50th anniversary ceremony they brought the entire cast, past and present, on stage.

“He would tell you, ‘I feel like it was a family.’”

“It’s been quite an adventure,” Dunning added.

I wonder if that confirms no Paige resurrection? Eve's continued grief over her dead child, and the trauma of that child turning up alive, isn't precisely "fun." She really made a point of not giving any spoilers*, but going on tone of voice I would guess that this is Eve stirring up mischief, not Eve with angst issues.

*Maybe now she can give the rest of the cast lessons.

Did Ron hint that Eve is in some sort of pairing with a current Salem resident...
So who could that be, she is coming just as Nicole is kinda departing..
Plus someone from Nicole's past is rumored to return (not in a good way)..my guess is Xander..

So who is Eve hooking up with...drunk Lucas, Justin, heartbroken angry Brady, horny Roman, exiled Eric or perhaps JJ as a result of his troubles.

I am thinking maybe Justin then he will reunite with Adrienne later. Could eventually be Brady.

Ron seems a little determined to reunite Justin and Adrienne based off of things he's said in interviews so I'm thinking Eve probably doesn't hook up with Justin... I'd enjoy it because I loved WK and KDP's chemistry a couple years ago but I don't see that happening. My next thought was Lucas because of the Eve/Jennifer aspect of it but Ron said specifically that Eve would shake up the Kiriakis family, so my hunch is that Brady and Eve are going to get together. And I'm not sure how I feel about that. Brady's character needs some time on the backburner IMO.
