You'd think they'd pounce on this opportunity, especially given the latest fan negativity towards the show. It would certainly bring the show back to some sort of positive light. |

The longer this goes on, the more I'm fearing I'm going to wake up to see "Eileen Davidson to BB" or "Eileen Davidson to GH" & all I know is that I'm going to say "oh H*LL NO" & then make some mean phone calls to the Days comment line. Seriously though this is torture. And ED's little "joke" about good news was so not funny, lol. My heart dropped when I saw "childcare". I am supposed to be studying not "click, refresh, click, refresh, click, refresh, check twitter" all day! |

days had 2 chances in the past to bring her back but they didnt even call her...in fact before she signed with YR the first time she called days and said she was ready to come back to work if they wanted her and they said maybe in 6 months if i remember so she signed back with YR and then when she was fired the 2nd time days didnt even call her i think they did just to use her photo so she signed with BB... |

What I'm trying to say is that Days is even more in the shitter now, they need as much positive press as they can get - and personally, I think bringing back Eileen would be a start. A lot of fans have wanted this for a long time! Kristen is classic Days of Our Lives, and I think it would do the show a lot of good. Especially when they're increasingly circling the drain (cancellation-wise). But I don't doubt you in what you're saying... Days have had many chances before, and it was ridiculous of them not to try and bring her back. Hopefully they learned from that idiocy, and will finally consider their fans' cries. |

Hopefully we'll hear something today. If not, it's going to be a very long weekend. Keep tweeting and calling guys! The more they know we want her, the harder they'll fight to get her. @nbcdays @daysofourlives @Eileen_Davidson DAYS Comment Line: (818) 840-2067 DAYS Hotline in New York: (212) 664-2333 Corday Productions: (818) 295-2821 steve_kent@spe.sony.com feedback@sonypictures.com spe_corporate_communications@spe.sony.com |

Since I wasn't too acquainted with the whole Kristen/John/Marlena storyline, I caught up on some clips last night and I'll just say: HOLY SHIT. Mindblowing. :hail: DAYS has to get ED. There's simply no way around it. Off to to send a ton of emails! |

I truly believe Days was at its best during the time Eileen was there. I loved both Kristen and Susan! |

Might?! You know I'm on it! Why don't we do a 'comment line/phone bomb' like we did for Dena Higley? Mitch? Kenny? |

I figured it would be at least a week before we hear anything. No way would it get done so quick when she wasn't officially let go until Wednesday. Even if the show wants her and she's interested, it takes time to iron out a deal. They are probably just discussing the particulars. Given we know from SOD, the show was circling even before the news hit, I think it's safe to say they are going to work hard to make it happen. I called a few times each day. I think as long as fans keep making it known they want her, it'll happen. The show seems interested and with fan support, I think it will be a done deal soon. |

The longer this goes on the more discouraged I get. I hope something is announced today either way so we don't have to wait all weekend wondering what's going to happen. I just want to know, one way or the other. Let me be happy or let me start the grieving process, LoL. |

I also think it is too soon for the announcement....of course I want it to be announced today...but the news of her ouster really only came 2 days ago...surely it is going to take at least a week before anything concrete comes out. |

Even if they get a deal done, they may wait to announce it. The show hasn't even spoken on the 4 exits. I think they are waiting to officially announce all the exits and returns together in one big "Plan To Save Days" article and we will likely hear official confirmations on returns maybe a week or so before that article is released. |

I agree that under ordinary circumstances it might take a while to get a deal worked out, but Days was negotiating with Eileen even before Y&R let her go. The fact that she's now unemployed should expedite the process, if anything. Unless, of course, B&B has swooped in and is trying to get her as well. |

Days doesn't announce anything anymore but news still leaks out, either by SOD or the actors themselves. If Eileen were to sign a contract, I can't imagine it would take long for everyone to find out. |

Meng's interview came before the cuts were announced. All he said was that major cuts were coming and soon after we heard the news. The actors themselves confirmed the cuts but the show never commented on anything nor did they deny anything. We know Days had an interest before she got fired but what if Eileen wasn't ready to push forward until she knew she was definitely out at Y&R? They really couldn't do much until she was officially fired so I don't think much beyond a phone call indicating interest was done before Wednesday. Yes, it will all be expedited now with her available but it still takes time to negotiate terms even if both parties are amicable. I'm not worried about B&B here because they have clearly gone younger and they don't seem into bringing on Y&R characters all that much unless they have a really big story need and they really don't right now. The show also has a full enough cast so I just don't see them jumping in here. Besides, if Days was circling even before he got fired, they already got the jump on B&B so I like their chances. But, yeah, news will leak out if they agree to terms but I think you won't get an actual official confirmation from the show about ANYTHING for a few weeks yet. |
