There's plenty of dead weight they could cut to afford Eileen (and Peter and Matt). |

Peggy McKay, Josh Taylor, Shawn Christian, Casey whatsit and Camilla Banus could so easily be cut if cash is a problem. There is nothing going on with them that anyone ever talks about being excited to see. I just don't understand this show. |

Seriously...Peggy's never on anyway. Josh Taylor has been useless since...well always. Casey is some of the deadest weight on this show, same with Banus, Shawn Christian is almost universally hated (or more accurately his character) I could care less if GG or the Swine go too.But that's me...I'd watch the Kristen and Marlena show every day and be infinitely more entertained than I currently am lol |

Kayla is another one...She serves no purpose. I know she's only recurring but still...Now that they've obliterated her marriage to Steve for no reason...when they could have had her just go to be with him. :( |

After Guzeman said we'd see Eileen at Days I was feeling pretty confident. I really hope this blind item is about Nadia or even Kirsten, though I admit I want Kirsten back, though certainly not over Eileen. We could seriously fire just about everyone and Eileen could do a one-woman show. I'd be okay with that. |

It depends who's doing the leaking and what their agenda is. |

Yeah, I like Jim but it's hard to make the argument that he's essential. He can go on recurring, anyway, given how likely they are to use him (I'd much rather see him than Josh Taylor though, but I still think Kristian Alfonso should take over that cop niche). Mary Beth is on recurring, so why not her possible future on screen partner? I don't get how Peggy McKay has a contract on this show, I really don't. And with Sarah Brown, Ian Buchanan, Molly Burnett, Patrick Muldoon, Renee Jones, and most probably Lisa Rinna all about to leave ... why is it so difficult to get Eileen and hold on to Reckell, Clark, Ashford? I think in the case of the latter three writing/episode guarantees has to really be an issue. I think there's enough cash for a roster that fits the "talented, popular and multi-generational" descriptor, but they want to focus on younger characters who are more blank slates.

Meng/Corday supposedly invested into the show for the reboot and intended to recoup the money from the show's budget. I don't know what the timeline was for that, but it's possible that the operating budget has been cut to reflect that. I'd cut Rinna, although I've liked her this time. Billie is floating, and she has to have a relatively big contract. I bet Banus and Deidrick together don't make half of what ED wants. |

The only other thing I was thinking is maybe its more of a scheduling thing? Like she only wants to work certain times, and Days is having a hard time accomodating her because of previous commitments to other actors (Sweeney). |

I forgot she was even on the show. She's another person who needs to go. |

I've liked Rinna too, actually, despite her distinct lack of acting skills, but she's not being used, so it's a waste. Banus and Deidrick make chump change, I'm sure, but Shawn and Galen probably qualify as soap vets at this point. Just put aside the whole idea of keeping or bringing back people; if the show is in this much money trouble, why keep Roman and Caroline and Daniel and so on anyway? They're not doing anything for anyone. Forget who you'd be making room for -- why are they here?? I'd rather see Maggie than Caroline any day of the week and I'd rather see Julie than either of them. |

I love Peggy McCay, and I think she still manages to embody some of the class distinction that has fallen away from Days. But I think she's only been seen once or twice in the last six months, and that makes me wonder what her guarantee is, anyway. |

I really hope DAYS does not screw this up with ED...I hope Janet DiLaurio is not talking about ED in that article...but popular leading lady, ugh...that can't be Kirsten S or Nadia B could it? Also WTF was George Guzman talking about then when he flat out said ED would be back? And what about SID saying it is just a matter of time now for NBC to confirm ED's hiring. Even though we don't know if this is about ED, it feels like a fucking punch to the gut for sure. |

I would literally fire everyone else to have Eileen and keep Peter and Matt. |
