Well if Crystal Chappell is looking for somewhere else to go, I'd welcome her back in Salem whether it was as Carly or not. Michael Sabatino, too. He was a great villain but I even loved him as campy JT Cornell on Passions.

Getting my hopes up before I have them dashed though, I'm curious if there has ever been a Carly-Bo-Hope triangle on the show or was Hope already gone before Bo-Carly happened and Carly gone before Gina/Hope came back? Gosh I loved Bo-Carly when I first started watching DAYS and whether Carly was part of a love triangle with Bo or with somebody else, I'd love having her back.

I've been brushing up on my history lately (Youtube, bethsdayspage, etc), since I was too young to remember most of that stuff. But it's my understanding that Carly jumped back with Lawrence and left with Nicholas after giving Bo his engagement ring back to which he threw in Salem harbor in anger. I don't think she ever got to spar with Hope over Bo. It'd be interesting, because I think it's the only other character in Days history that fans accepted as a possible second to Bo. I think Billie was universally hated, from what I recall.

If I'm wrong on any of this, I wouldn't mind being corrected. =P
After being rescued from being buried alive by Vivian, Carly's memory regressed all the way back to the time she was in love with Lawrence as Katerina von Leuschner so she left town with Lawrence in 1993. She basically had selective amnesia and didn't remember Bo or anyone else but Lawrence, really.

I agree with Mason about Ivan. They were fun for awhile but he eventually aided in straying her too far away from what made her a great character.

I still wish Ava had turned out to be Lawrence's daughter. It would have made a lot more sense on so many levels.
Either that or a Toscano but now that she is sleeping with John that would be too icky for me due to Isabella, even if she really wasn't Ernesto's.

Ava being an Alamain would've been a perfect way of getting that family back in the mix. It would be a bit creepy though as John thought he was Forrest Alamain, which would've made him Ava's uncle had she been Lawrence's daughter. If he actually had been Forrest, we would've had another Stax situation on our hands except they would've actually been blood related if he was Forrest. Of course, she could've just been an Alamain. She didn't really have to be Lawrence's daughter.

It would have made a lot more sense why Ava's father wanted her to stay away from Steve if it was Lawrence. That's why she should have been his daughter. There would be so much history to mine there.

^Well, he wanted her to stay away because he didn't trust Steve. However, he may have known he escaped from Stefano too at the time so that could've played into it as well.

Your right in that it had major potential and it would've been refreshing to involve the Alamain's since Lawrence should've been behind Steve's "death" in the first place.

Didn't Crystal Chappell have a really tough time on the set of DOOL?

I know she didn't like working with Robert Kelker-Kelly (pretty much none of the female cast did), and there have been lots of rumors about a small feud or something between Crystal and Deidre Hall.

These sound alright. I am loving the Phillip and Morgan stuff, the Daniel and Kate stuff, I think they are going to make them mad at each other and then they will end up in bed again.

As far as Days showing during the Olympics, I think they are going to show Days, but it may not be on at the same time as it is now. So you may have to hunt for it.

Seriously, does anyone find this crap interesting? Does anyone care what the hell happened to a lame-ass newbie like Paul Hollingsworth? Why are they pushing that annoying idiot Morgan on us? Who cares about Max's biological family? Stupid dumb show!!! :flipoff:

What they should do is cut the following:

Tony and Anna (I LOVE them, but they're not being used AT ALL)
Abe and Lexie (I never cared for Lexie and they can send Abe with her so they can take care of Theo)
And get rid of Josh Taylor as Roman. Roman's not needed and if they're not going to use Wayne Northrop in that part then they just need to be done with the character for now.

You clear that out and add Vivian and Lawrence (and ONLY if it's Michael Sabatino in the role) to the canvas, then you have some shit to work with right there. Steve and Kayla would instantly get a storyline, Phillip could have a new business rival to sharpen his teeth, and you could throw him in the mix with John/Marlena/Stefano.

I'd be kind of hesitant about removing the only black characters on the show, because it takes away some of the diversity of Days.. but. I'd rather clear space for useful characters than keep people sucking money from the budget who have no use. If you want, you can recast Jett with a young, talented black actor and have him join up with the Salem PD. With Roman and Abe leaving, he could fill the hole and add a younger face to the mix. And you could slowly build him up over time rather than shoving him in our face like they did during the Touch The Sky storyline. But I probably would hold off on doing that and just focus on the rest of the characters.
I totally agree with you! Finally, someone who has the same sort of ideas as me! Josh Taylor has GOT to go. Lexie is an annoying shrew, and Abe never had much appeal for me. Ditto for Tony and Anna. If you want diversity, bring back Wendy and Jonah. They are Sami and Lucas' age and would complement the thirtysomething characters nicely.

If I brought back Lawrence, he'd come to town toting Carly's ashes in an urn (to explain Crystal Chappell's absence). Carly would never be buried. I had this cool idea where Lawrence would be secretly blackmailing Justin Kiriakis into framing Philip and Victor for Enron-type dirty dealings, and Bo would investigate for the Salem PD and in turn grow closer with Victor and Philip. Instant story, especially if Lawrence got tied up with Patch and Kayla again.

Bringing Lawrence back would be great. Lots of story there. They could tie in Stefano in that also as to how he "acquired" Steve from Lawrence. I won't hold my breath though.

Am I the only person that like Josh Taylor as Roman?? I just don't like Wayne Northrup as anybody! I always like Roman and Marlena {Josh and Deidre}. I like this Jawn, and would like to see how much trouble he and AVa could get into! But,~~
I do not like Chloe and Lucas at all. I like her with Brady. I think EJ and Nicole are perfect for each other, and Lumi fan forever!
I also agree that Kate should be pregnant! It is her turn! Everyone else has been!!

I know that I don't find this crap interesting. Although, I do care more about what happened to Paul than I do about Morgan in general. Morgan is simply getting too much airtime, and it's not even quality. As for Max and his sister, who cares! We don't need more newbies on DAYS. If TPTB could just figure out how to effectively use the people they already have, the show would be golden. I can't even bring myself to watch DAYS anymore, I just read Prevuze and viewer comments.

That might do more damage than just not showing it for two weeks.

Love the idea about Lawrence but Days doesn't think like that.

I haven't been following Days closely at all lately, but is it true that Nicole is Max's mother? I was just reading that at SoapCity. Apparently Robbins slept with her (probably when she was doing underage porn) and she got pregnant with Max.

SO. FUCKING. STUPID.

This will ruin Nicole, being stuck at the mother of one of the most boring characters in Days history. Shit on you, Higley!

I think Nicole's actually going to be the mother of Max's half-sister, but either way, it's so absurd and just more of the same bullshit we've come to expect from Higley.

That sounds like a Terry rumor. I've not seen it anywhere and though I was worried Nicole was going to wind up as Melanie's mother, I don't think they are going to go there either.

But as far as Nicole being Max's mother? I think we're safe to believe that isn't true..

I guess Philip's the next person Daniel will save. The patient of the week story is really getting annoying.

I wonder why Marlena running into Trent is spoiler-worthy. Is there a past?

I'm not a Philip and Morgan fan, but I'm glad they're moving forward with an actual direction, rather than Philip being all into Morgan one day, and then sleeping with Chloe the next.

I wonder what happens to Lucas that causes him to wind up in the hospital.
Maybe Trent will be Marlena's new guy. I've seen quite a few posts at other places asking that Marlena get a new guy.
