The only thing that I can think of is that noon eastern is 9:00 pacific, and that should be around the start of the business day for the people at the studio. So if someone has been canned, maybe they don't know about it yet, and he can't post it until after they have been told. Just a guess.


I think this males sense.

Wow this thread exploded again. I go away for a few hours and holy crap LOL.

First, I want to thank Nelson for chiming in and giving us a few hints. I'm pleased that Days isn't canceled and that Ed should he safe, based on what Nelson said.

I can't possibly think of what this could be unless maybe one of the actors spoke up and is looked at as a reason for Higley going so Corday fired them as a result of that. However, I do tend to think this has something to do with Days and Y&R specifically and not an actor or actress as there would be no need to sit on a scoop like that. I think what hops said is right. There is going to be a meeting tomorrow to address everything and nothing can come out before then because someone might get hurt or something because not everyone has been informed as of yet.

I also wondered about Hogan. Could he be involved in this? I mean, could Ed have been working hard to screw over Higley just to get Hogan back? That would be ironic. Higley helped force Hogan out and now he forces her out. That is what I'm going with. It's a little outlandish but I'm going to say Ed wanted Hogan back and did his damnest to get Higley out so he could get Hogan from Y&R, perhaps knowing Hogan wanted to stay at Days. The depressing part of that would be that there is so much backstabbing and disloyalty and that will all play a role in the eventual end of soaps because there is more effort being put into shit like that the shows and the shows are suffering for it. That is true. There has been so much behind the scenes dissension with the soaps in recent years and that is a big part of why soaps continue to decline. That and the recycling of the same old writers.

The only thing new is that nothing's actually new, LoL.

Well, okay, we know for sure that DAYS isn't cancelled (although from the sounds of things, we may end up wishing it were). Beyond that, I really don't know, LoL.

There have been so many theories(although some are humorous impossible ones) this still leaves me baffled and confused. :lol:

I don't think it's that Hogan's coming back to DAYS, because I think Nelson would have been a lot happier about that.

The hint is 12pm EST. Could the news be that Days is moving to 12pm on the east coast?

I think it's got to be that Deidre is leaving for a role on Y&R. I bet she complained about Dena's writing and used that as part of the reason why she is leaving and Dena decided that perhaps if she quit Deidre would stay ... but I think it is too late unless DAYS buckles and gives Deidre everything but the kitchen sink ... I think any Days actor who gets a chance at another role would take it considering Days position with NBC. This however is my theory. I think that if this is it Deidre would be the first of many actors to leave Days! The flood gate would be open.

Lets face it Y&R ratings are slipping - perhaps it was Hogan's suggestion to steal Days fan favorites to help boost ratings.

LoL, apparently it's the end of the world for Days, but Nelson can't give anymore information 'til tomorrow. It promises to be full of scandal and doom, though! He says it's the biggest news story of the year and it makes Martha Byrne's exit from ATWT look like a love affair. Oh, it also involves Y&R and we're going to learn that NO ONE at Days has any integrity and they're all heartless bastards.

Does that set the tone for you? ;)

delurking to say that i agree with you. it's the best guess so far and it incorporates all the hints...i just think this is all too doom and gloom to strictly be a writing shake-up.

I think if it is a cast member leaving it isn't by there choice. I could see it being someone speaking bad and Corday fired others to get Dena to stay. Usually firings happen on Fridays so I wonder the whole have to wait until Monday is because not everyone within the Days/Y&R family knows what is going on. No one can speak out about it until certain people are notified of things. I remember when Martha/Brandon were let go we found out about it late Sunday and it was only because some went to their boards and asked Martha/Brandon directly if it were true that we found out it was. With this news being a bit more of a mystery, there is really no one people can go to different web boards to ask other than those that break the news. So we are just going to have to wait until Nelson can fill in all the details tomorrow.
