I think Branco's only error here is talking about what a big deal it all is. I think it is a big deal, but what the fans see as a big deal, and people on the business end of daytime see as a big deal, are two different things. Anyone looking for actor/extramarital/drug-related/storyline/casting shockers will be disappointed.
That's not entirely true. I think many care about anything that effects the show and may be relieved that there isn't some big personal drama playing out behind the scenes.

If its something even Toups didn't want to touch,it has to be something more than just backstage shakeup with tptb
It's more about legalities involved. Nobody wants to be in the middle of it. Branco might very well wish he wasn't involved at this point. It's not that it's "so shocking that it will blow your mind". But anyone involved in it might get caught in some legal crossfire, and my guess is that's why Toups stayed away.

PS I hit the wrong button. I hit "Report" instead of "quote". Mods, ignore the "Report" I just sent.
That makes a lot of sense. Generally places that report news don't hesitate because of how sleazy or scandalous a story is because that is what sells, gets people to pick up the paper or watch a show. But things that are nasty legal wise that might drag the reporting organization into the mess -- that definitely seems like a reason why some have chosen not to break the news on this story.

I didn't mean to imply you guys wouldn't care. I apologize if that's how it came across. I know a lot will care. It's just that there are some pretty outlandish theories flying around, and I thought it needed to be reined in a little bit. But I'm sorry if it came across the wrong way.

Damn! Oh, well. :laugh:

Seriously though, I'm sticking with my time cut theory.

Good Morning all!

Another thought to add to the mix . . . if the WGA had scored a victory against Corday/Days/Sony in any way, I would think they'd be putting out all press releases about it. Unions, especially in this day and age, want the public to know that they are still able to make a difference. And that kind of victory would be huge for the WGA. I went to the press area on their site -- nothing, not even a hint. They wouldn't sit on this kind of info. Nothing in the LA Times either (the paper itself).

Wow, I haven't thought this much about Days in months LOL!

Thanks, brimike. I had a feeling it wasn't going to be actor related, but with the Byrne/ATWT comparision, I think it means the studio is going to do something pretty heartless and the show will just be left to deal with it. Also, with all the hype going on, I have a feeling it isn't nearly as bad as the drama that we come up with. We all are a pretty creative bunch!

I think the 1/2 hour show change is pretty interesting. Still sticking with Hogan being involved.
Wouldn't you love to be a fly on the wall at the Days studio today?

See y'all around 11am! I love this kind of exciting stuff!

Oh, actors are involved. Just not in some scandalous sex shocker or anything.

Well, I for one am thrilled that it's nothing as outlandish or crazy as anything we've come up with, LoL. I love Days (just not in its current state) and I want to see it rise from the ashes.

I wonder if Corday went on vacation and left the dirty job of firing Higley to Ed Scott. Then Higley threatens to air all their dirty laundry if they do fire her, and that's why supposedly Corday is trying to get her back, so she keeps her mouth shut.

I also think some part of the story will be Scott taking writers from Y & R.

Even though it's been stated already that the news is not DAYS' cancellation, I bet this news will be the catalyst that gets the ball rolling in that direction. My gut tells me this news is THE BE ALL - END ALL shake-up for DAYS. :scared:

Despite all of my negativity, so do I its just that after years of disappointment, lies, broken promises, I am having a hard time believing that Corday wants the same thing.

I think it's fun to speculate - it does not bode well for a show when we get more excited about the behind the set stuff instead of what is on our TV screens. Oh the Drama of it all! Can't wait to read Nelson's scoop! I'm glad that he's got the exclusive and from what I can tell it has not leaked out! Good show Nelson! This should be the lesson to all soaps spoilers' may not work to your advantage - anticipation is worth something!

Corday is known for his vacations that way he doesn't have to look at the mess he's made on a daily basis.
