Eileen tweeted about an hour ago and answered a question about Monday's episode of Y&R ("Did Billy Miller accidentally call you by your real name?") but she still hasn't said anything about Days. The fact that she's gotten so many questions about Days and hasn't answered a single one yet makes me think she's still working out a deal or one has already been worked out and she isn't allowed to say anything yet.

Either way, they need to hurry it up and announce something already.
She was really quick to let us know it wasn't going to happen a few months ago, so her silence seems like a good sign to me.
Ahh good point!

We need to step it up on Twitter...I have noticed less tweets in the last few days...
Yes, and some woman named Greta has been tweeting the hell out of Y&R trying to get them to re-sign Eileen before Days can get her. The nerve!
Freaking Bitch. No offense if she posts here :p

Does someone know how to get her banned from twitter :cheer:

I would totally welcome Brenda Epperson (sp?) returning as Ashley. I loved her as Ash.

I did too, liked her better than ED.

There's a warmth to Epperson that makes her much better suited for a character like Ashley. Eileen, on the other hand, comes across much more severe which makes her perfect for the character of Kristen.

I agree, Kenny. Ashley is a soft character & Epperson played her well. ED played well as Kristen & no one can replace her!

Maybe DAYS are trying to keep it under wraps as a suprise for the Olympics Cliffhanger? That would be awesome

I want ED back on Days so much.
Although I've watched and been interested in the show when I fell in love with certain couples, the Kristen/Susan factor kept me glued for the acting and the fantastic stories wrapped around those two characters. Days would be crazy not to pursue her.
KC needs to make this happen!

Lol, come on Kenny, you' d suggest Charity Rahmer for the role of Ashley if it meant getting Kristen back :P

(Please note I've never watched yr and know nothing abt Ashley, lol)

Kenny's right though. Brenda Epperson was the first Ashley for me. I loved her to death. Then they brought in Ronn Moss' wife Sharri, god she was awful. ED was a good Ashley, but I always preferred BE. Eileen's strengths as an actor were showcased more on DAYS.

Just adding to the Davidson/Epperson debate, I've watched clips of Davidson as Ashley the first run. She played the role much like Epperson did after her. I don't think until the mid-90s when Davidson played Kristen turning a little bad that we got to see Davidson as "severe" the way she played the role of Kristen. And now as DAYS fans, we saw Davidson play Kristen that way and we think Ashley is boring and too tame for Davidson to play. I think that just show Davidson's range. She will always be my favorite Ashley Abbott. The only one for me. IMO, Ashley Abbott is the role I find Davidson most comfortable in. That is probably due to the fact that she played that role longer. It's just the role I identify her in now, and this is coming from a fan that started watching just as Davidson's time as Kristen was starting to get good in 1996.

Thank you JCP.

If Eileen is not tweeting, then something must be going on.

I do too. I think if there is something there with DAYS they might be asking her to remain very quiet. I'm sure they probably want to keep it top secret, but I just wanna know she's returning.

Why is Days so secretive about everything these days?

They don't announce hirings, they don't announce firings... they don't announce anything anymore. The only time they come out and confirm anything is if they have a big piece in Soap Opera Digest or a rare interview with TV Guide. Otherwise, they just keep quiet and leave people to do their own investigating if they want to find anything out. It's pretty annoying.

On the flip side, I miss the days when these shows had secrets and surprises and werent transcribed weeks in advance.
