See with Days she gets to remain a big fish in a small pond and outside of Days, she's little fish in a big pond. |

I feel sorry for this actor that he thought this was a good audition tape to submit/post on YouTube. Flubbing one line is maybe okay, but he just totally botched the big rant. They should've stopped tape and started over. Whoever this Prestige Management firm in NYC is, I wouldn't recommend them if this is the type of stuff they let go out the door. As for the choice to bring back JJ now that Jack is gone, it's pretty sad. How nice it would have been to see Jack/Matt interact with a son, given Jack's past. This scene shows that the only reason they're bringing back JJ is to make poor Jennifer into a victim again. I wish JJ would inherit his parents' investigative skills and go on a mission to catch Dr. Dan in one of his extracurricular jaunts on his desk with one of his patients (or maybe Chloe). But instead, he'll probably be the best man at a Dannifer wedding. Ugh. Edited by annie21, Oct 26 2012, 10:13 AM.

Bring back Jack!

I will take everyone's word on the bad actor audition LOL. So I guess it is JJ..and it seems even dying a heroic death wont save Jack from Jennifer using his mistakes (or bad judgement) to justify her own. Wonder if she'll give any examples there to prop up Daniel. Also if it wasn't for his "bad judgement" in stepping in that elevator their daughter would be dead right now instead. And Since they insist on using Jack's son to prop Dannifer (when they couldn't bother bringing him back when his own father needed someone) they really need to get a better actor. I guess he is angry that Jennifer hasn't visited him in 2 years..and then when she did it was only because his dad was dead. Still once he stops hating the sainted one then what? Who else can they bring in for faux angst? |

And that's exactly the point. Jennifer and Daniel have no story whatsover without a third party getting involved. Nicole, Chloe, JJ...whoever. Without someone creating manufactured angst for them, they have nothing. No history, no chemistry, no deep connection. Daniel will never, ever take Jack's place. No matter how hard Tomlin tries to push his golden boy as some self-sacrificing hero, the audience will always see him for what he really is - a self-serving douche bag. :flipoff: Edited by LanaluvsBroe, Oct 26 2012, 10:17 AM.

I guess once the Chloe/Parker story is over and those obstacles are removed (I shudder to think what they have planned for Chloe), then it's JJ's turn to cause turmoil and depair for the perfect couple. :shame: |

Ugh. You make a good point. I think this shows that Dan and Jen will overcome the Chloe obstacle. Shoot. It'd be a pity to sacrifice Chloe to Dan, but I really was hoping he'd be leaving with her. I do like what Jack Jr. is saying, even though I realize it's just to give Dannifer angst. Problem is, I sympathize with him and don't sympathize with Jennifer at all. Also, I think it's funny that TIIC seem to note what fans are noting (referring to Dan banging everyone, Jen not mourning), but they miss the part about Dan being an empty character who just needs to exit and Jennifer losing all that once made her appealing. The great couples don't need a third party. Jack and Jennifer never did. Even with Emilio, he was incidental---really just a prop---and had nothing to do with what was really the issue and the romance, which was all internal between Jack and Jennifer. Contrast that with Dan/Jen, in which Nicole, the interloper, is the only entertaining member of the Dan/Jen/Nicole triangle. That's why I always thought Jack and Jennifer were golden---Jack's issues could always provide suitable angst with no interloper needed, JnJ always had built in story with the reporter thing, and they were actually entertaining even when they were happy together, because of the banter element and the humor. And yet. Tbey have been the most crapped on of the supercouples by TIIC. Sad. |

I like the dialogue. The actor--not so much. He sounds younger than the actor in the first vid, but his delivery is awkward, and doesn't sound natural. It's pretty clear from what's being said that this is meant to be JJ--though I wonder if "hot shot lawyer" is really code-speak for "hot shot doctor." I wonder if Jen-Jen is going to try the "Daniel saved my life" gambit on JJ--and I hope he fires back "He's a doctor--that's what he's supposed to do. Dad saved Abigail's life and gave up his own." I would love it if JJ was instrumental is exposing Daniel for the self-serving, fickle douchebag he really is. Maybe he discovers Daniel and Chloe getting it on, and makes sure Jennifer finds out about it. But with T&W 2 at the helm, I'm not getting my hopes up. Final thoughts: if they're only just auditioning actors for JJ now, and he refers to Daniel as Jennifer's "boyfriend," then maybe the January wedding isn't Dannifer, after all. |

Oh, and GV, if you're sending tweets out to thousands of fans, make an attempt with the spelling. I had to read his tweet a second time to get his meaning, as the first time I read it "there" instead of what he meant. |

Anybody else think that we are going to get an Ericole/Racole triangle? Based on tweets, it seems like those three are in each other's orbits pretty regularly. |

Seriously? They're not even doing something with her now? SERIOUSLY? She's the fucking number one DAYS star. Sweeney is a nothing compared to people like Deidre, Susan (Bill and Susan should have their own spot if they wanted to do a real DAYS thing), LeAnn (she was pretty huge back in the 80s) and Kristian. Those are stars. It better have been Deidre who couldn't go, not that they decided to not to do it. |

I was wondering if we would get a rafe/nicole/eric triangle. Which i guess wouldnt be to bad i guess. But if thats the case then why wouldnt they have just paired nicole and rafe during her pregnancy the chemistry was there. Either way im excited to see ericole hoping they have good chemistry. |

No no, I'm pretty sure what they did was get the fans lined up and then select the Days cast members based on that. If they didn't get a "marlena super-fan" in their lineup, then no Deidre. |

I am thinking we will be getting a Rafe/Nicole/Eric thing going on. I bet Rafe and Nicole grow closer while she is still lying about the baby being dead before the whole Jennifer thing but as soon as Rafe finds out the truth, he will probably drop her like a hot potato and enters Eric. GG and AZ actually have a decent chemistry, so I wouldn't mind that. Based on the tweets, these 3 seem to work a lot together and there really is no other reason for Rafe to be in Nicole and Eric's mix unless he is somehow connected to Nicole or trying to shag Eric since he is Sami's twin brother. |

Funny thing is that by not trying to put Racole together, they've actually made them more appealing IMO. If they actually try to write a couple, they end up feeling cheesy and forced (see Safe and Dannifer). |

It does sound like it will be JJ based on what he is saying but I pray this is not the actor they choose. He is worse than GG at his facial expressions. |

It would be really cool if Jack Jr. didn't come to realize what a "great guy" Dan is (let him be snarky Jack reborn!---I'm still ticked that Jack wasn't allowed to be a snarky jerk to Dan---there were so many good lines I wanted Jack to use on Dan), but I bet Jr. will come around and apologize and be Dan's buddy---arghh. Yeah, that actor did flub it bad, but I hope that's how Jack Jr. dresses. The bad thing is, my love for Jack is causing this Jack Jr. thing to get me a bit interested, and I was doing a good job of weaning myself from the show completely. Still, I don't think Jack Jr.'s enough to get me to actually watch much more than a couple of scenes to see what they do with him. |

Rafe could also be in Eric's orbit because of Sami. I'm sure we'll hear Eric tell Rafe how much Sami loves him and how he was the best thing ever to happen to her and to not give up on her. It'll be interesting to see how Eric feels about EJ. Since he's coming on as a priest will he be all about forgivness? And I'm calling it now, Eric will be the one to remarry Safe. |
