Ugh, I really don't like the idea of KDP as Eve. KDP/JS sounds great on paper, though. But my dream would be KDP as anyone getting reunited with TSJ as Peter. |

We're in agreement here. Charlotte owns that role and would have very nicely filled the "Sami-type" void that will be left in the show. I could see if the writers had their minds made up that Eve was coming to town and Charlotte said there was no way she would do it. But after she had a meeting with Meng and Whitesell and favorited or RTed nearly every tweet she got mentioning Eve, I think they're making a mistake. Plus when she announced that she wasn't returning she said that she will be back one day. Why would you recast?! KDP easily could have played Jordan's mom and still came in as basically a clean slate. FML. Too many conflicting emotions on this one. |

Not thrilled at all. I'd wish she would play some other character. But someone said that KDP had followed Charles Shaughnessy recently, so this might be true. Interesting, the age difference between Charles and Kassie is only 6 years. |

Yeah, there's no way they could have Eve and Shane in scenes together with KDP in the role. KDP is only 6 years older than CR but KDP's look doesn't lend to her playing younger the way that CR's look does. When I see CR, I could buy Eve being 40, which would work fine with Shane's late 50s/early 60s. When I see KDP, I see her being late 40s at the youngest. It's not that KDP looks bad for her age, it's just that her look is more mature than CR's. GRRRR.... have I mentioned that I hate this? LOL |

I know some of the Kim and Shane fans have said that Eve's backstory aged Shane, so it might be inevitable that her coming back with any actress might sort of age him all over again. I mean, I wouldn't think about Sane being that much older than Jennifer these days, who was one of Eve's contemporaries, without Eve in the picture. A recast could work, never say never, but a recast in the Dannifer/Theresa-Anne orbit I just don't know. |

She could still be Jordan's mom. We don't know what Eve has been up to for the past few decades. Wasn[t there a casting call for someone in this age range, newly divorced? Although I had the impression at the time I read it that it was a short term role. |

I wouldn't be a bit surprised to see one of KDP's leading men for OLTO eventually show up on Days. |

I'm not as bothered by KDP possibly being Eve as I thought I'd be because this clearly shows that they already have a story planned for Eve and this isn't just a case of "Let's get a name actress & force them into a role." They went to Charlotte Ross FIRST, but she wasn't able to return due to other obligations, so the show had to explore other casting avenues. My only concern is that KDP might be just a tad too old to be Eve. |

KDP as Eve Donovan? Um, no. There's no way I would buy that. KDP was born in 1961 and Charles Shaughnessy in 1955. A six year age difference between father and daughter? Come on. KDP looks younger than her age but not that young. |

I had feared KDP as an Eve recast because: (1) Charlotte would be such a welcome return; and (2) it baffles me that they would recast Eve with someone even older than Charlotte. How old do they want us to think Shane is? KDP is 52. Eve was 18 when Jeannie was born, but KDP is almost 25 years older than Jen Lilley. I had actually hoped that KDP might be a Kim recast, since I long ago gave up any hope that the show would bring back Patsy Pease on contract. Edited by jwsel, Jan 24 2014, 11:05 PM.

I suspect kdp is going to be involved with Shawn since she first followed him and Charles shaunessey on twitter. Her as eve makes since with the latter following. Days dropped the ball. Kassie should be playing a new character. Even playing Daniel ex Rebecca would be better than eve recast

Charlotte Ross hasn't been on the show since 91 and Eve hasn't been mentioned in years. Maybe the last time was when Frankie was on. Think of how long Sami has been on the show and that's longer than that. I loved her as Eve and really enjoyed the character, but she's definitely a character that can be recast. At least Days tried to get CR back first and when that fell through, they possibly choose a phenomenal actress to fill the role. I'm all for it. |

It looked like a short-term role. Some other calls for other short-term roles were issued at the same time. I remember I even thought they were going to have some sort of group counselling sessions or so. Chrishell mentioned in her interview that they had changed direction for her character because they couldn't get the person they wanted. (It could have been Charlotte Ross). So maybe Jordan is somehow related to Eve. Well, if Jordan were Eve's daughter that would make Theresa Jordan's aunt, wouldn't it :shrug: ? |

She looks younger, IMO. I think the character of Eve would add alot to the canvas. I hope KDP's story is not for Dannifer |

I can handle a recasted Eve, but there's no way in hell that I want KDP playing her. Let KDP's character be tied to Jordan/Sheryl and possibly Ben. |
