nah I think it will be her talking on the phone or something to that effect.. I expect some character to be talking about her in the scene before her first and then we see a hotel or apartment room in Europe with her booking a flight as the camera pans to her face *cue freeze frame*. a fan can dream I guess.

Melissa Parker (Smashing Interviews Magazine): What do you think of Eileen Davidson leaving the show?

Jeanne Cooper: Well, I don’t know. I think she’ll be back eventually. I adore her. She’s an incredible talent. Again, one of the major pieces of talent that is leaving and going to jack up another show, you know? She will go to Days and when finished there, she’ll either go to The Bold and the Beautiful or back to us. I’m sure of that. Well, let’s put it like this. I’d like to think that I’m sure of that.

Another reason to think this is probably short term. Jeanne Cooper is the queen of that show so I think they would have at least talked after Eileen was let go. I hope she's wrong though.

If it is a short-term return, there's no reason for them to play it calm or faux-realistic as it seems they might, or have her in some kind of business nonsense (like the show can focus on that for more than 5 minutes). She may as well swoop in with crazy drama, shake things up, then fade out. The new phoenix.

I hope it isn't short-term. That would be a major disappointment. She basically got kicked off of the show so her going back to Y&R after 6 months or so doesn't seem realistic to me. B&B maybe.

I'm not sure JC has any special knowledge, but Days big name returns tend to be for 2-3 years maximum (only in soaps is that not "long term," lol). What she's saying sounds pretty reasonable.

It may be short term, but who knows, maybe she'll like the DAYS environment and want to stay?

I'll be happy to have her back for a year. It would be nice if she was back for longer than that but I'm not fooling myself into thinking that's the case. I'm just going to enjoy her while we have her and hope the writers give her something good before sending her out in a blaze of glory.

My guess is that John and Marlena will be at the HTS and we'll first see Kristen lurking ominously in the background....which would be disappointing for me, personally. Not every return has to be dramatic and momentous, but I really think Kristen's is one that calls for it. I would love for it to be similar to Tony/Andre's return during the party at the Penthouse Grille in 2002, but I'm sure it won't.
I don't think so - remember Deidre's post that they "finally have a scene together" - does not sound like Eileen's first scenes are with J&M.

I don't know if I read that or not. I really don't pay close attention anymore, LoL. Hopefully her earliest scenes are with someone interesting, in that case.

Honestly I dont think she signed a short term contract. Sony terminated her contract at YR. They want her at DOOL for a long time.

Knowing this show her first scenes will be with someone totally off the wall...like Gabi or Daniel.

I think her first scenes will be with either Kate or EJ. Definitely not John or Marlena. That wasn't her first day taping so unless she has multiple early scenes with Chad it won't be him. I would love if it was with Stefano, but I think he will eventually come back once the DiMera Enterprises power struggle gets a little more serious.

If they really wanted to excite me her first scenes would be with Rolf and Bart.

Ew, really? lol. They can stay gone forever as far as I'm concerned.

Dr. Rolf wouldn't fit in anymore, but I always enjoyed him. I think Bart would still work today and would fit nicely with the DiMera scene if they wanted to take them out of the boardroom. At least he was a character, unlike the nondescript goons working for EJ now and that worked for Stefano before he was shot. Its a different show now though so I'm pretty sure you don't have to worry about them ever coming back.

Speaking of Bart, do you remember his first scene on the show and what he was used for?

No idea. I didn't pay much attention to him until he started being hilarious...at least he was to me.

His first appearance was in April or May of 1997. He built the secret room for Kristen.

Damn, okay! Now I want Bart back with Kristen even more, lol. I definitely need to watch the Kristen storylines again over the next few months. So good.
