If Lucas is getting a new love interest, do you think she is a newbie actress, or has she been on a soap before??
Preferably she has been on a soap before, is a good actress, and has smoking chemistry with Bryan. Because he deserves that.
It's long past time for Lucas to have another love.
I agree. Alicia Minshew ex-Kendall from AMC would be a good choice for Lucas new love.

I wish we knew more about Lucas' upcoming storyline. I hope its business related.
Me too. One of them (probably the one with Kate) has to be business-centric. I need to see scheming Lucas, and nobody schemes better than Lute.
Oh most definitely! Scheming Lucas has been an absent presence for far too long, and I have no idea why.
Totally agree. I don't know why these writers (any of them!) can't seem to figure out how to mature a character without completely taking away some of their most interesting characteristics. Lucas can be mature, family-focused, and "good"-ish, and still be a snarky, smirking schemer. Especially considering he is most entertaining that way, and therefore an asset to the show and much easier to write for (IMO).

Another great interview. Bryan just gives off such a good vibe. I LOVE watching Lucas - I think almost everyone does! GIVE THIS MAN A CONTRACT AND LET HIM STAY AROUND!

I haven't been able to understand this either, and it's one of my biggest gripes regarding Lumi - these two were best as schemers together, and why that side to their relationship was completely discarded over their time together is beyond me. But that was especially the case with Lucas, whom I like as generally a very good guy. He's good as a good guy (and he is a Horton, so I guess that family moniker comes with some kind of civic obligation), but not a completely VANILLA good guy. I will never understand why that part to his character was bulldozed for the most part. So, if this something something about his getting a new love interest is true (soooo happy!), then I hope it does something to play up or highlight those qualities in Lucas again, qualities which have been too quiet for too long ;) In fact, I feel like I have no idea who the mature schemer Lucas is - t'would be nice to get to know him.

I would kill three goats and a mule to have Lindsay Hartley return and be a love interest for Lucas. I'd even forgive the show this one time if they made her a different character and not Arianna (which could get confusing now anyway with baby Ari). The chemistry is smoking just thinking about it. Mackenzie Westmore was one of my favorites on Passions from day ONE but I can't picture her with Lucas AT ALL. Lucas used to be one of my favorite characters but sadly it's been SO long since he's really done anything that I could take or leave him and I hate saying that. So, this fan is super excited he's possibly getting a real story and love for himself. Bout time.

OMG, if the show develops "this" Lucas as their moving him into his love story, I will be, to quote you Elci, "quite the happiest of campers." lol (I love that!) And I haven't been a happy camper when it comes to this show in so long. Just liking bits and pieces here and there every so often.

That's why I'm encouraged that Lucas isn't being isolated from Kate; and even more to the point, that their interactions have been characterized as being "old school" Lute. This show knows what that says to fans of Lucas and Kate individually and together.

So for now, I just couldn't be happier with what's shaping up for Lucas. It's a very exciting time for Lucas fans finally.

OMG!! Please let it be McKenzie Westmore!! Or Brooke Kerr. Or whoever that person was who played Vincent's female version.
I think that was Daphnée Duplaix? She was great on OLTL, too.

Me too. I really enjoyed her on OLTL. I did see her run on Passions, but I thought she'd really upped her game on OLTL as Rachel Gannon. Rachel was a beloved legacy character that many fans wanted returned to the canvas. When they finally recasted the role after a bunch of years, she really had some big shoes to fill with all the expectations individual fans had mainly because of Ellen Bethea who originated the role. Subsequent recasts weren't as good, the writing did not favor Rachel, and so fans of the character were a bit protective as well as jaded by this time.

But Daphnee came in and did a solid job and won fans over. If the storyline hadn't been utter trash, she would have lasted longer; however, Valentini (the producer) and Carlivati (the HW) just gave up, and sent Rachel away again.

Anyway, I think she'd do well in a business storyline. She'd be totally believable as a business woman. And because she's absolutely gorgeous (and had a lot of chemistry with so many of her cast-mates (Passions/OLTL), I suspect she'd have chemistry with Bryan, too. A lot of it.

If I had to pick, my pick would be Daphne for sure...she's beautifully exotic and I think she'd actually look really good with BD.....

Here is another DoD interview, this time with Outtakes...

http://www.outtakesinterviews.blogspot.com/2013/11/day-of-days-interview-with-bryan-dattilo.html

DAY OF DAYS 2013 INTERVIEW with BRYAN DATTILO


THE DAY OF DAYS 2013 INTERVIEWS WITH ALL OF THE CAST MEMBERS CAN BE HEARD HERE: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/outtakes/2013/11/12/outtakes-at-day-of-days-2013

Bryan Dattilo (Lucas Roberts, DAYS OF OUR LIVES) -- November 9th, 2013

OUTTAKES: How is it being back on DAYS with Lucas coming between Sami and EJ and taking Ali back?

BD: It's been fun! It's been really fun. The storyline is going in different ways these days which is good for me. It's going back my way which I'm really happy about. I don't know about getting between Sami and EJ. That's pretty impossible. That's a tight sandwich to stick a little piece of meat like me in. It's fun working with James. It's fun working with Ali. I missed them both. I hope that there are good things to come.

OUTTAKES: Since you're saying there's no breaking up Sami and EJ, if Lucas were to get involved with another character on DAYS...do you have an idea of who he should get mixed up with?

BD: There might be some new blood for him. Existing on the canvas now, there's not a lot of options for Lucas because he's related to everybody. Not that that's ever stopped anybody in the past! But Lucas is trying to go by the book. There's not a lot of opportunities for a guy like Lucas in Salem, but you never know what the future will provide.

OUTTAKES: If you could control where the storyline would go, what kind of storyline would you like to see happen for Lucas?

BD: I thought Lucas was always at his best at a corporate setting where he was on the business end of things. Kind of wheeling and dealing and being the big shot that he's always wanted to be. Being there for his son would kind of be a cool angle. Definitely to be more involved with Will's life would be great. I think there's a lot of good things to come so I'm actually very happy where the storyline's headed right now.

Glad to hear Lucas won't be around Ejami, I can't stand who Sami has become and I've had my fill of these two, don't need them around whatever he'll be doing.

I agree with Bryan about wanting him in a business story...hopefully that is what we'll be getting soon. He seems happy at what he's getting and he likes the story, so I can't wait till it gets here....why does Days have to be soooo far ahead? Geez.

I could definitely support Daphnée Duplaix with BD. And I love the business storyline idea, too.
