The Preview sure makes it sound like it is John that they are talking about.

Unfortunately, that can't be anyone but John that they're talking about. Damn it, DAYS! Why the fuck do you ALWAYS have to take the safe way?! :angry:

After all... tomorrow is another day!

Do you think they'll hire the same guy to play John's hairy arm who played Stefano's hairy arm if he's back?

I hope so. That hairy arm was superb.

I don't think bringing back John is as much a problem as another Dimera-related mystery. Honestly, now that I know the Dimeras are all up in arms over some dumb almost-nun who knew Santo for a month then flung herself off a cliff (or not, can't believe the writers when it comes to that sort of thing) I find them too pathetic and ridiculous to enjoy. And when I think about how sucky they are in terms of successfully defeating their enemies despite, like, 5 decades of plotting...they really just need to go away.

Although, it would be kind of funny if they nursed John back to health. 'Cause then it's like they can create life at will but they can't avenge Santo-the-pathetic. It's almost so wrong it comes back around to awesome.

If it is John (and I'm clinging to the hope that it's someone else), I guess that explains why there's not really a lot of mystery and depth surrounding his hit and run. They just needed a plot point with which to show us they could do good work, and maybe an episode to grasp for some kind of Emmy recognition. Whatever. I can deal with his return so long as the next time anyone dies characters on-screen are visibly and actively disinterested (which is totally how I think they should've played Belle's reaction this time, seeing as her parents & their friends have died any number of times during her life).

Looking forward to the Marlena-Sami conversation.

I think it can be assumed it is John but I would love it if it's Wayne and the real Roman :lol: . I mean, that would be a nemesis to Stefano too. Wishful thinking but this whole thing reminds me of after Wayne left in 1984 and Drake came on. It's just got that feel from the scenes. I also want to know what that letter Stefano is reading is. It looks like a threat of some sort. I think it says someone is coming for Stefano and I found that intriguing. That whole scene with Rolf looks good IMO.

The Marlena stuff looks great. I am glad they included her in the promo and not the Ford stuff. This promo will make people want to tune in. good stuff. December is off to a great start.

Some people at NBC.com mention Andre or maybe they have fixed EJ paralysis but he will still pretend to not be able to walk so keep Sami close.

I like the Wayne Northrop back as Real Roman. It would play perfectly in to us all thinking that Roman was acting odd at the funeral.

I really don't want it to be John. Fans may be thrilled, but at the same time, DAYS will lose even more credibility. A death isn't taken seriously anymore, and this would just provide more evidence of that. Besides, his return would hinder Marlena's new storyline even moreso.

I am kind of hoping that it isn't John too. I am enjoying Marlena without John. I haven't liked her in a while, but I am loving her right now! I like John too, but I just can't stand J&M scenes. They are just such a sickening couple to me.

I just remembered I read on several boards a few months ago that Wayne was on set.

Roman was Stefano original nemesis and Stefano mentions "A Nemesis Being Alive" so it could be Roman.

Now, I hope that's who it is. That way it's not a cop out, Wayne and Dee are reunited, and death is still taken seriously and Dee's story doesn't get hindered.

I mean, they have to figure we will all think it's John, especially with the big December return rumor going around. With Ed here, I can see him using John as a smoke screen and bringing Wayne back. That would be awesome :lol:

Now, if it were Wayne being brought back as the REAL Roman, that I could be on board with. There have been those talks about some big December return, too.

I was just starting to get back to this show, but simply because I like what they are doing with Marlena and because of the Shelle/Philip/Chloe story.

But if they are gonna go and ruin the story for me by having John be alive, I will have to leave the show again... :P

I think it's Colleen. Hogan said there'd be another twist in the Santeen story and that when the Bradys find out, they'd be determined to rid the world of Stefano. My guess is he's been holding her captive all these years.

In Dee's interview in SOW she was gushing about Wayne, and I know they are friends. As an older fan of Days who remembers him as Roman, I would like seeing Wayne and Dee together again; if Drake is truly gone.
