God, I'm exhausted but I want to stay in this thread keep it going LOL.

I still think this is Hogan related somehow and maybe ties back to the strike.

Perhaps we will really find out what went on during the strike...Perhaps some ppl we look up to like our ED, who I adore, were involved in some things that should not have happened...or perhaps Ed is golden and it was Corday.....hmmmmmmm

^ My face watching DAYS

DAYS being cut to 1/2 hour has nothing to do with Y&R or irony.

The only thing irony related having to do with DAYS, will be in the form of a writing team shakeup or something.

I don't have the slightest idea though why anything having to do with the writing team would be EARTH SHATTERING news, STORY OF THE YEAR BY A MILE-esque.

I will be waiting for that NOON anouncement tomorrow!

I think its going to be strike related..I don't buy Dena just quiting because people didn't like her writing..I think she's quiting because she was about to be forced out by the WGA...I would love if Days had to hire back all the pre-strike writers..That would be quite the shakeup...And i imagine Days will be hit with a huge fine, which could hurt the budget possibly leading to some firings..

^That makes sense, Kev.

Dena heard what was going and quit. Writers need to come back and there will be clashes with Corday and likely financial issues, which could lead to massive cast changes. It seems to fit with everything.

Damn. I should just go to bed so the announcement gets here quicker. I have to work tomorrow too LOL.

I just keep thinking about how Toups says this is so bad that he didn't want to touch it. And Nelson keeps saying that this is the worst thing he has ever been involved with or somthing like that.

As I think about all that, I just don't think it has anything to do with the WGA now. I mean all that stuff wouldn't be so bad.

I think we are going to be totally surprised by something that has gone on backstage and it is going to floor us. Also all the backstage stuff with Goutman/Byrne was used as an example and how all that happened - and this is supposed to make all that look tame.

I am just ruling out now the WGA as that wouldn't be so bad that Toups wouldn't want to touch it.

Also I am thinking now that the person fired from ATWT is the reason this can't be told until Noon. I think Nelson said somewhere that the person from ATWT does not know yet. He or she is being told in the morning so he does not want to break the news until then - so the person doesn't find out this way.

Hogan coming back would be ironic, but why would that be devastating and so horrible? I mean, would it be worse than Dena staying? No...

Would it hurt Y&R that he's leaving so fast? Maybe, but not so much. MAB can do well herself, IMO.

So I don't think it's Hogan going back to DAYS. If it is, then Nelson blew it out of proportion.. lol (which I'm sure he didn't, so it can't be Hogan going to DAYS :D)

When I left the computer it was on page 25 and now when I came back it was 48. There are so many posts that make me wonder if people even read what Nelson said.

I can't see it being the Hoagie thing. For the same reasons Manny said.

It just doesn't seem that horrible and crazy.

I just can't see what could be so bad... I mean, if it's Alfonso or Hall fired, sure that's horrible... and yeah, DAYS would be dead... but I don't know.. I don't see it as HUGE HUGE HUGE either.. lol Maybe that's because I see DAYS dead within a year even without Alfonso or Hall leaving...

But I really can't even guess what could be so bad. I mean, the most intriguing part for me is the Y&R connection.

And the only connections between Y&R and DAYS are Hogan, Ed Scott and Sony. So... I say it's not Hogan... and it's not Scott, since people guessed it before Nelson said no one guessed it. So something with Sony??

AAAAAND I would love to go to bed too, but I've been awake since 8am, because my neighbors are redoing their bathroom and they've been making noise since 8... I am so pissed. Long day for me ahead, but I'll be waiting for this announcement!!

Night, Mike!

The mention of Martha Byrne, actually, in Nelson's scoop does actually have me thinking it is about an actress.

Rogers? Hall? Alfonso?

I know it's all been speculated. I'm just throwing it out there. :lol:

There's also Beth Milstein and Paula Cwikly

And Alfsono/Hall being fired wouldn't kill Days, no actor is bigger then the show.

Yeah, no actor is bigger than the show, but if the actor or actress was forced out in some God awful way - even more horrendous than Martha Byrne - I think that could be referring to this.

Leaving is one thing, but if there was horrible terms the person was fired under...that could be it.

No actor is bigger than the show, but there does come a point when the straw finally breaks the camel's back.

Exactly.

You see, I was always a fan of the ENTIRE show. Sure, Bo and Hope were and forever will be my favorites. But I would never just stop watching because Bope was gone or something.

BUT... many people these days do this. They only watch for certain people. And if you think about, if you take away Hope, Marlena or Sami or whoever (I mean, HUGE familiar faces) what is left? Stax? Chan? No thanks.. and that's what many will say...

And one more thing.. I don't think many people are a Bo fan.. They are a Hope fan or Bope fan.. but I don't think I have ever seen a Bo fan! Sure, Peter Reckell is loved, but really..

I hope you get what I mean... these days there is not much left to enjoy on the show, so if you take familiar faces like Hope and Marlena, that actually might be enough to get people to tune out completely. And that's why I said that their leaving could kill DAYS.

If this was a different time, I would completely agree with you, Sindacco and Mike.
