Megan was a great villain.

She came on the show when Bo and Hope were exploding as one of the most popular supercouples in daytime. I wonder how it was for her to be in the middle of all of that? Did she get backlash from fans, or were they good about separating reality from TV?

I'd also love to know how she got along with PR and KA, but that might be too much to ask - or she'll just lie. ;)
She talked about KA and PR in her Days 50th RedCarpet interview. Loved working with them:

FROM THE VAULT: "HE LEARNED THE HARD WAY NOT TO MESS WITH WILHELM ROLF"...

After killing his own niece, Dr. Rolf describes why he should not be messed with.

I forgot...what year was this? And what really happened? My mind is fogged up. And I really do miss Stefano because of this vid. So thank you, Jason! :smile:
This was June 2000, just after Marlo had given birth and Rolf did the baby switch with Marlo and Hope's babies.

Thanks for all the questions. I had already prepared some myself, so there were repeats, but I have added some of the ones you asked. If anyone else has any questions, keep them coming!

Should Megan and Larry (Marry) have been a couple?

Miranda would jump at the chance to return to DAYS. I could tell she was hungry for it during the 50th. She tweeted me saying she laughed every day on her way to work knowing how much fun it was going to be.

I watched the episode of Megan's death just the other day. I enjoyed the actress, I was disappointed she didn't last longer. Maybe ask her about the fans back then, any good or bad experiences to share with us?
DAYS fans, especially Bo and Hope fans, were a mob of murderers pushing for her death and the same happened to Emma Donovan via the Shane and Kimberly fans.

Thank you soo much! I must have been in school and missed this. I still can't believe Joe is gone :mellow: Stefano was a greatest villain of the time period. Surely I am going to miss him.

I'd take Paige being alive just because while she was a boring and bland character, it was major RETARDED of the the writers to kill off the granddaughter of a super couple that way when she could have been just sent off to live with Shane and Kim. Seriously, Paige may not be needed, but she should be alive. She's the granddaughter of Shane Donovan, the stepgranddaughter of Kim Brady making her tangentially related to the Bradys, JJ's first love and the aunt of Arianna Horton making her tangentially a part of the Hortons. Yes, she was boring but I do not agree with killing her off.

If she ISN'T alive, I hope that they at least bring her back and give Eve some PROPER closure instead of her vanishing when her mother goes to hug her one last time.

Serena can stay dead and MA can be Sarah Horton. Not sure about what to do with Wendy Taylor, the midwife who delivered Thomas.

I'd like to know if she was surprised at the twist making her Stefano's daughter. That never made sense to me, and the character of Maxwell was pretty much out of sight, out of mind after Andre dropped him through the trap door. I've always thought there must have been an abrupt change in the story, because she was definitely raised by the Hathaways and went to school with Bo.

I wouldn't mind Megan coming back from the dead. She IS a DiMera after all. They do tend to come back. Plus her death was completely stupid. Who dies from hitting their head against a wall?

.....Megan coming back from the dead. She IS a DiMera after all. They do tend to come back....
I still hold out a dream storyline that has Stefano's daughters all shacked up in some secret villa, caring for their ailing off-screen father. With Dr Rolf back front and center, the plausibility is there.

Renee, Megan, and Kristen, all deep in their Anti-Salem Delusion, plotting some Big Revenge. Not sure how you could craft a decent umbrella storyline of revenge in current day Salem. Megan could focus on Hope. Renee could focus on Julie. And Kristen of course would be for Marlena.

I suppose there could be unknown DiMera Children/Grandchildren secretly introduced into the mix. Someone to romance Ciara (representing Hope), a femme fatale for Eli (representing Julie), maybe a hot stud to entice Will (Marlena's surrogate). Then again, that seems like too big a project in this budget conscious era. Also not sure the current fanbase of clip-watchers and FF-ers could handle the longer-term 80s-style storytelling.

If am umbrella storyline isn't feasible, then maybe we could have their *ghosts* visiting Chad, somewhat like Hope had on Smith Island with Bo/Larry/Zach or Jack had with Harper/Duke.

I loved True/Paige, but Paige should stay dead. Some have to stay dead so the next serial killer storyline is taken (somewhat) seriously.
I wrote this fan-fic story a few years back(this however was in a different forum), around the time that the neck-tie killer story was being played out. Before we got the reveal, I was seriously thinking Abby was the serial killer...and KM would have been awesome playing the roll of the crazy chic that lost it and went on a killing spree. The story was originally written that when Serena was murdered both Ben and Abby were together...which was why the Ben reveal made no sense to me.

My second(and probably the most educated) guess was that Clyde was responsible for those murders. Clyde was there(at TBD) the night he spiked Chad's drink and when Serena was killed outside the bar. Clyde ran into Paige, before she was murdered...Clyde was one of the last people to see Paige alive. The evening that Marlena was attacked, Clyde was seen jogging through the park...was he jogging? or was he actually running away from something? Clearly the writers were setting it up for us to think Clyde was the neck-tie killer.

We knew Ben had a dark past prior to reveal. As I understood the history, was there not some mention of something that happened in Miami with Ben? This wasn't the first time Ben might have been framed for a murder "he did not commit". Perhaps(like I said in another thread) Ben has this rare disorder where he reads or hears of a murder, and immediately draws the conclusion he was responsible. We only saw Paige and Serena's murder in flashback's of Ben's, this might not what took place in real-time...Clyde might "STILL" be the real perpetrator.

Now we "actually" did see Ben render Will unconscious when Will hit his head and put that dent on the refrigerator door. We then see Ben drag Will back to his apartment and "then" place the neck-tie around his neck(keep in mind THIS IS happening in real time). I think we are suppose to assume that Ben really thought Will was dead at this point, when in reality maybe he wasn't.

I make this point for two reasons, it would be an interesting plot device to re-open the neck-tie killer case. How Will managed to survived is a separate story...how Ben knows he didn't kill Will becomes a very good question, unless(as I suspect) Clyde somehow intervened and helped save Will's life...but Why would Clyde do that? especially if Clyde was the real killer of Paige and Serena. My best guess here is that his diagnosis from Bayview shows he does have that rare disorder(I mentioned above) and Ben is now aware of it, where before he was not.

I didn't forget her. She was shot, so she's technically not a necktie victim.

I really wanted to find out more about Serena's backstory. All we knew was that she didn't get along well with her mother. Nothing was ever mentioned about her father. They could be anyone. Sadly, we never will. :(

Though she still is a victim of Ben's, but just not the victim of being strangled. That's still 4 victims for now but I'd settle for Paige and Will to be alive, Serena to be resurrected as Sara Horton and Wendy Taylor to become a new character in the cast. Maybe another daughter of Gabrielle Pascal who is the mother to cousin Joan.
