That was the SBu guy? What a waste of a character and actor? Why do they get talented actors such as this guy and the Owen guy, only for them to be on for a limited time? Dean's hot and so far been smart to cover his tracks. I also like his motivation being the Bradys' nepotism at the dept....FINALLY someone noticed it!LOL Thanks for the info! Liz |

Now I absolutely adored Heather Lindell's Jan and all, but we're gonna be having some problems if they try to turn Kate Roberts into Jan Spears. |

I am like so amazed this soap is still on the air. The sets are dreadful, and the stories are so bad. Oh gosh, what have they done to poor Bo and Hope. The writers are making them die a slow death with these silly short stories. Right now, Lily on Y&R is going through a cancer story. When I watch Y&R and think of the way Kate's cancer story was played out, I am so glad I quit watching "days". I absolutely hate what corday, tomlin and higley have done to a once great soap. This is just my opinion, but sometimes I have to vent. |

I hope it's like Shawn in the cage. These people have been way too free for way too long. And these little mini-kidnappings really don't count. My only problem with it is that it should be a core character getting 'napped. I could give a shit about Dr. Dan. Or Kate, at this point. |

And I can verify it as well.During the charity event in Boston,Shawn was asked for spoilers and he said "Kate,rope and a motel room" It sounds like Days is really reaching for upcoming sweeps in the face of falling ratings. Dena did this on OLTL as well when Margaret held Todd hostage and raped him |

So much for the spoiler that says that Daniel decides to use Kate's attraction to him to his advantage! LOL! You go Kate...you're the only one that makes this Danloe crap slightly watchable...at least you make us laugh about them! Once Kate is out of this "true romance" sl, Danloe will deflate like a flat tire! |

That sounds great, Drew, but I doubt it would matter. Most fans probably still wouldn't care about him, regardless. Look at how many fans react to any new character that comes on the canvas, even if they stick around for a long period of time. There is always a resistance by many to new faces. Sometimes if the actor is liked, you will see a more favorable reaction but you still have many asking why there is yet another new face on the canvas. I don't think we are meant to care about Dean anyway. It's clear this kidnapping story was nothing but a way to introduce conflict for Bo and Hope, who we do care about. This isn't about Dean. If it were, we would see hints of things that could be used later on. It was the same way with Owen, whose actions caused Steph and Philip to breakup and the Dimera/Kiriakis war to end. The repercussions is what is meant to be cared about, not the character who comes in to bring them about. Days has always had characters like Dean and Owen who come in, serve a purpose, and leave. Remember Jude St. Claire? How about JL King and Max? There were many others, including in the 80's. They cause trouble and then exit. I think because Days casts known soap actors in these roles now that sometimes people expect more. Alot of the time that is why Days can even get a known soap actor to take on these roles. The short-term aspect of them may be what draws them in. Wes Ramsey has other projects. Tamara Braun was loved by the cast and crew and the show wanted her to stay but she wanted to leave. She only signed for 6 months and admitted that was one of the factors that drew her to Days at the time (which is why I don't get her being considered a "villain of the week" when the show clearly wanted to keep her and was making her a well-rounded character on the canvas). Who knows about Nick Stabile. Maybe he has other things going on and likes that this is short-term. Maybe not. Just putting it out there that many of the names Days has gotten for these roles may like or prefer the short-term aspect. The other thing, too, is that what OBK spoiled here is likely going to air in late September, if not later. That means Dean would've been on for about 2 months (not counting the first few weeks of him in the background). For all we know, this may not even be the end of him. I don't mind characters coming, serving their purpose, and then leaving. That has always been commonplace on soaps. Days is overusing this device (we've seen them do this alot recently, starting with Hogan's reign) but it's realistic. People do pop in and out of people's lives in real life. I just think Days needs to limit doing this for awhile but it is fun seeing known actors in these roles, at least for me. These sound good though. I totally see a Justin/Hope pairing coming. I won't comment on Kate and Daniel beyond saying Kate's gone bonkers and I like it LOL. |

Basically Dean is going to end up being a drive-by character from the looks of it.

I agree. And I think the situation with the villains is a problem just like the supercouple-one. Everytime they bring on a villain people complain that TPTB are trying to replace Stefano. Edited by Sindacco, Aug 24 2009, 04:21 PM.

I think Owen or his bro can still return. Owen is free and on the run and we never even met his brother, we just know he exists. I thought for a while they could make Dean longterm and let him grow closer with Hope but it seems clear Justin already has the part of someone Hope can lean on, so there is not much place for anyone else. Besides, Dean is really a bad guy. Most of the daytime longterm villain are bad at being bad and almost never do something really heinous or atleast the outcome is less drastic. Thatīs not the Deanīs case. He not only kidnapped Boīs child, but he will soon murder two people in coldblood. There is no redemption for him, even if he suddenly decided to be good he would still be sentenced for life. The show could go in the classic thriller route and let Hope and Dean grow closer but it would mean a) make Hope completely stupid, b) accept the viewers will be repulsed for all the time they have to watch them together. People hated Hope with Patrick and he was just shady guy. Dean is a murderer. |

Okay, so I'm watching last Wednesday's episode right now, and do you mean to tell me that Dean has kidnapped Ciara and will later try to kill Hope, Bo, etc. because he didn't make detective? That is his big, shocking motive for all of this? Lame. Edited by Mason, Aug 24 2009, 07:39 PM.
