DR Day of Days Interview with Eric Martsolf; Combined with "John's mother" thread

Brady had a bad day yesterday.
Did he? Gosh, what happened? I have no idea.

Just a little wedding mishap.
Oh, the whole seeing his fiance up on a monitor in the middle of a church while his brother had sex with her. Just another Friday in Salem. I play a guy that is just so unlucky in love. You can’t help but root for the guy to find a woman that will just love him for who he is and not have some manipulative agenda. But it’s one of the basic ingredients of soap opera. You have manipulative women, and you have to have not so bright gentlemen. Because if they gentlemen were smart, the show would have ended 48 years ago. So I’m happy to take the fall to create soap drama.

We keep hearing about some kind of addiction story coming up.
He’s an addict. I think we’re going to learn that substances aren’t his only addiction. It’s interesting how addicts can be addicted to many things. They can be addicted to sex, power, substances, women...so the show actually explores how deep of an addict Brady really is. He’s going to hit one of the darkest times in his life coming up. The downfall for this episode is almost as interesting as the event itself. And Days of Our Lives is so good at creating these bombs that go off in town, and then mixing the pot up. So once fans get really comfortable with certain pairings, the show goes no, no, no. Brady has new lily pads that he jumps to. He doesn’t necessarily open his heart up, but he’s opening up his mind, his wallet, and his lifestyle to new things. That’s as cryptic as I can be.

A lifestyle change?
He starts wearing plaid. He wears a lot of khaki. I don’t know.

We just recently found out that John is back.
I’m glad Drake Hogestyn is coming back to the canvas. He’s a good human being. He’s a good guy. I’m glad to see him working because he brings an element definitely to Brady’s story that is necessary right now. Any father after something like this goes down would come back to town and see what’s going on.

But apparently he doesn’t come back until a few months later.
There’s a little bit of time. We want to watch Brady take a big fall just before he comes back. His dad does come back, and despite their tumultuous relationship, there’s love underneath. It’s nice to see a father and son dynamic; although rocky, it’s necessary.

Three people that you don’t usually work with have told us today that they’ve been working with you.
Really? I’d love to know who.

It was Freddie, Jen, and Casey. Can you tell us anything about that?
Nice. That’s interesting. Two boys and one girl. And young bucks, too. Can I tell you anything about that? What do you mean?

Why are you hanging out with the kids?
Because I act like a kid. I have a lot of youthful vitality. Well, I have twin boys that are seven, so I’m basically a little kid in a big boy’s body. But I would venture to say that JJ and Brady do have some things that are similar. Actually, so do Theresa and Brady. Everyone is on drugs in that town. What’s going on with that? But Freddie...I don’t know. If Sonny is looking for a new boyfriend, I don’t know if Brady is the way to go.

You did say Brady has a lifestyle change coming.
Oh, lifestyle change! What’s funny about our show is that just when you think you know what’s going on, you don’t know what’s going on.

Is there anything else you want to share?
Other than the fact that a lot fans here today have asked me when dark Brady is returning. He’s like his own character. Like Batman or something. He’s coming. It’s not a mystery. He’s going to go down a very dark path. It’s a lot of fun to play. He’s not burying anybody, but he’s definitely going to be burying some relationships and forming some new ones.

I hope Brady gets his brain back while he's on this dark path, but somehow I doubt it.

Oh, like that's a roadblock for Brady. ;)

I'm really looking forward to seeing Brady's downfall.

You know what would be cool? If Brady decided to become a drug kingpin and JJ and Theresa are his first recruits. Not sure where Sonny fits into that. Maybe JJ gets a job at the club and uses it as a front for selling drugs.

ETA: Throw in Rory. He's desperate for a father figure.

I'd rather see Brady with prostitutes than Brady with his blood-cousin, Theresa.

I can't handle incest. LOL

It sounds like there are some interesting and challenging times ahead for Brady. Bring it on! I was so tired of seeing brain dead Brady - even addicted Brady sounds better right now.

Well, Bristen aren't related, so I was fine with them.

I can't handle "Brincest". Brady + Incest.....or "Brousins" Brady + Cousins.

Really, Brady & Theresa are so damn far apart in relation that it really wouldn't be a problem. Besides, I think they're only related because of Santeen & I still refuse to acknowledge that hotmess of a story, so I'm good to go. Let's face it, when it comes down to it, a whole lot of us are probably blood related if we go far enough back.

They're not related by blood, but they are related.

Has a soap ever done that before? ETA - this is about blood related pairings.

And as long as Brady is taking John's women, I'm going to put in my weekly request for Krady.
