You know, I don't think Ed Scott's going anywhere for a long time. If he were to get the ax from Corday, there just might be a mutiny. :-)

He discussed what he loved about daytime and even what he hated. Quote: TVG: Having been an integral part of the golden age of soaps, does the future of daytime depress you? PR: When I came back to the show 13 years ago, I was surprised Days was still here because the industry hadn�t moved with the times in terms of writing and production. I thought for many years we should accommodate our audiences because they have other choices. Back then, we had four networks, and no computers. It�s much harder to grab our audiences. We need to be edgier and get them talking to bring �em back. I agree with him 100%. The reason why soaps have been so successful in the past is because they pushed the envelope of their time. I think the 90s were the very last "age" of soaps where the soaps had an identity, and we're still in that age now. It hasn't changed and that's not a good thing. We need to get into the new milennium. Look at shows like Desperate Housewives and Grey's Anatomy and House, etc. They push the envelope and they're successful. Soaps can do it so much easier due to the fact that they're telling an ongoing story about a diverse group of characters. But that doesn't happen. It sucks.

I remember those scenes on Smith Island where he was shirtless in jeans with that long hair chopping wood! :lol: And he and Hope used to take a lot of naked showers. Those were the days!
