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. They 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.
Remember that summer when KC spoiled 4 months of the show culminating with Sam I shooting Ej? I think he learned his lesson.

That said, I'd like them to tell us soon too. Mostly because I need to know if I should keep watching.

No news is good news. If it was dead in the water, ED would come out and say it like back in Feb or whenever.

I wonder if all the buzz about Days makes her more attractive to the people at Y&R. ?

maybe she can't make any announcement until her last day onscreen for Y&R? It would spoil the story if everyone knew for sure she was leaving. This way it leaves fans on both shows wondering.

I wish DOOL would get her back & I hope SN goes back 2. That would B a great start 2 what's ailing that show. I hope they get SH & JKJ back 2. I would B 1 happy camper.

Prediction...she will go back to Days for a short run and then return to Y&R. I think this was the plan all along. Either that or as one poster suggested it's a power play and Y&R will re-hire her.

As for SN, I hope he stays put. It's clear Days has no intention of using him. As far as the Patch & Kayla days that ship has sailed because writers have no interest in investing in super couples anymore. Don't want to see both of them just tending bar and being filler. At the very least you'd think they could stop disrespecting MBE and have Kayla be a doctor with some air time.

Nah, Steve and Kayla have a classic Days love story and will always be relevant if the writers want to write for them. There's plenty of material left there. But I know SN doesn't seem to want to come back. I think I'd rather have ED back on Days at this point anyway, if it works out. She seems to have a genuine good will towards the show, and it needs people like that.

I only care about getting Eileen back. If SN never sets foot in Salem again, i'd be fine.

Thank you JCP.

I don't want Stephen back at DAYS either, they treated him and MBE badly the last time they were there as a couple and nearly ruined his character.

I never liked 2nd Stephanie, she never was their daughter to me, liked first girl better and she looked like her grandma Caroline.

I just have a strong feeling they will atleast TRY to get her back (And probably will) I think they are wating for the perfect time to announce .. certainly After she is done taping at Y&R.. Keep in mind we didnt find out about Blake B until a few DAYS before he started taping.. I also think they will court Belle and Shawn D.. Its been mentioned too much .. Which Belle and Shawn remains to be seen, Though I think they sill try for Original Shelle first.. Then go from there.

The fact nothing has been announced may very well have much to do wih existing contracts and filming.

They would be wise to return to what worked.. Bring back Chloe's parentsDays is Short 1 or 2 Doctors, and I loved Nancy.. Bring back characters we know and relate to, then write interesting stories.. These actors cant be expensive they are not big names or have primetime gigs..They only need a few 30-40 range and a few 20-30 range.. Everyone else should be Veterens.. Thats what the vieers want.. And like Jason Cook said, The soap needs the actors to go back to basics and convince advertizers that they can use and promote products for ALL ages during the show,, Because thats how the show MAKES Money !!!!

Fans are still reeling over the firing of Eileen Davidson but it looks more and more she is heading to revise her old role at Days. One of Y&R's actor says “Apparently, she’s going back to DAYS. No one knows why she was let go but let’s face it, there are about 15 other actors who needed to be fired before Davidson.”.....

I think there's a very real possibility that she's on her way to DAYS. If she wasn't she would shoot down the tweets she's getting, like she always has in the past. Its pretty much DAYS or retire and she still seems to have the passion for acting.

I also think Stephen Nichols is out at Y&R, but I'm not sure if he should or would come back to DAYS after the way he was treated. I hope he goes to GH and they revive the Cassadines. He was money as Stefan Cassadine and I think Ron Carlivati could do magic with the Cassadines, unlike that idiot Garin Wolf. Nelson reported that a male character is out at Y&R but he couldn't spoil it because its part of a major storyline. I can see Tucker going away without much fanfare.

I don't have a twitter account, but people, please tweet away & say you want ED back on DOOL!

As for SN, I would love for him to return to DAYS but I can see why he wouldn't want to. SN at GH? I don't it'll happen because he didn't like how his character was treated & basically ruined it a year before he left GH.

Yeah, but TIIC from that era are gone. GH is like a totally new show that actually respects the history of the show. I think most actors dream of working for Carlivati and Valentini so he would probably jump at the chance. I actually like Stefan more than I did Patch anyway, but I love both characters. I would rather see either of them than Tucker.

I remember reading a long time ago (so no referring link) that ED films her scenes first thing in the morning and then is off home for the day - she normally leaves the studio by 9am. Maybe thats a sticking point around negotiating with DAYS? Although, this would not explain why she needs daycare then!
