I haven't watched DAYS since February, but this may be just the thing that will make me come back. The Kristen era was by far the BEST time on the show for me. Nothing compares. I loved Eileen Davidson on Y&R, but she ruled the world on DAYS.

I also don't really care what they have her doing. Just seeing her back on the show and interacting with John and Marlena especially will be enough for me...for now.

SOOOOOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!!! I never thought this day would ever come. :cheer: :cheer: :yahoo: :yahoo:

At least I know I won't have to tune in for another 3 months....that is if the spoilers for the Olympic break cliffhanger don't suck.

Davidson Back To DAYS
By SOD • Posted: Jul 5, 2012

As first hinted at in the 5/21 issue and reported by Digest in the 5/28 issue, Eileen Davidson (Ashley, Y&R) is heading back to DAYS OF OUR LIVES as Kristen Blake, EJ's adopted sister. The Hollywood Reporter confirms that she first appears on October 11; she is already in scripts. Davidson played the role from 1993-98 (and also played four other roles: Susan Banks, Sister Mary Moira, Thomas and Penelope Kent).

When describing Kristen to someone who's not familiar with her, being EJ's adopted sister is not the first thing that comes to mind, LOL.

There are so many interactions I'm excited to see with Kristen: Marlena (obviously), John, Stefano, EJ, Sami, Nicole, Jennifer and Billie (just because I never got to see them as friends with Reeves and Rinna in the roles) and Brady.
Eileen Davidson and Arianne Zucker sharing scenes :hail:

I think I would officially enter "Soap Bitch Heaven" if that occurred!

YAY that she's returning, but BOO that we have to wait until October! I was really hoping that we'd see a short scene of Kristen during the pre-Olympics cliffhanger.

So would I if they'd give Nicole some of her bitchiness/backbone back.

I personally have seen enough of Nicole...overplayed...along with EJ/Rafe/Sami...I hope Kristen's return is not just a new fucking platform for the Quad of Screen Hoggers.

We'll see if the show can hold my interest at all until then. Glad to have a date, can't wait for promos.

Super stoked that Eileen is returning to Days! I remember the first character I disliked on Days was Kristen Blake. Eileen is such a great actress. My favourite year for Days was 1997 so I'm just hoping Days writing can improve and go back to its glory Days.

I wish she were returning sooner than October 11, but honestly I was thinking November Sweeps so I'm thrilled with that date. She's already in scripts and she probably starts Monday or at least sometime this coming next week so hopefully they wrote up something awesome and didn't just throw it together.

I might have a heart attack if Deidre tweets a pic of them together. I would also love to see Kristian Alfonso and Eileen Davidson together. I know they were around at the same time and had the jungle storyline (which I hardly remembered), but it seems like they didn't cross paths as much as they could have. Would love to see that.

I think based on the John vs. EJ for DiMera Enterprises storyline that's about to start up its obvious that EJ is probably going to have to bow out in order to keep his parentage a secret. I wonder if EJ is going to recruit Kristen to help him get DE back or if Kristen is going to come in and feud with John over it. I don't know that I can ever remember a time where a returning character has THIS MUCH potential storyline direction. Most of the times I'm happy for returns but its really just because I want them on canvas not because the story is there. This time there is unlimited storyline potential.

I could not agree more. There are so many avenues for the show to go with Kristen. The John/Marlena route, the EJ route (with Kristen), the EJ route (with Susan), the Stefano route...she could have her hands in everything. I just hope that the show has a REAL plan in place for her and I hope the scripts are good.

I also don't know yet if I want Kristen to be lurking in the backgrounds at first, watching and waiting, or coming back with memory loss, or guns blazing full on bitch villainess ready to take her enemies down for wronging her.

I kind of want her to come back and be redeemed, only to be plotting from BTS and sabotaging everyone to get them back....I also want her planning all of this with Steffy, like the good old DAYS.

Yep. I've played out about 100 scenarios in my head and they are all good and I would accept just about any of them. I'm not even sure what the one I WANT the most is because there are so many possibilities. Its been a long time since I felt that way. I just hope Tomlin can shock us and come up with something great.
