Or, god forbid, Charlotte Ross was just expressing her appreciation for the people who wanted her back and didn't think about how the wording would come across. Given that she just tweeted her congratulations and made it clear that it was her choice not to return, it seems a bit much to immediately assume that she was being bitchy and deliberately undermining Kassie in the second one.

Charlotte also congratulates Kassie in another tweet, for those so eager to call her a jealous bitch. Maybe Kassie will be just holding the role until Charlotte becomes available. That is the ONLY way that I will accept Eve as some country bumpkin with a hillbilly twang.
So I guess it's just ignorance on her part to not realize that also tweeting she would be back undermines and diminishes the new actress playing her. We're not stupid neither is she. Calling the new eve a country bumpkin just because Kassie has a southern accent is rather bigoted . Kassie as Blair on oltl was no country bumpkin

This harping on a negligible age difference between the actresses is silly and reminding me of the infernal fan wars between the Phyllis /Michelle backers vs the Sharon /Sharon supporters at Y&R. Kassie exudes sexuality and strength and will be a terrific anti -heroine or flat out bitch Goddess. She doesn't look a day older than Charlotte Ross.

no, I don't think its a stretch unless she's coming back as another character or knows something we don't.

Said it all right here.

Kassie will be amazing. I can't wait.

Except she knows many Eve fans are upset at the KDP for oen reason or another. So she did a #FBF to the good times for them. I do not doubt for a minute that Charlotte and Eve were similar, but I think some are quick to vilify Charlotte in wake of the news of the recast.

Okay here's my two cents about this.

Firstly Kassie DePaiva is a wonderful actress who I believe will make a great addition to the Days cast.

About the recast. Some recasts work, others don't, and it's a lot to do with the eye of the beholder, IMO. I have a list of recasts I've liked (such as Eric Martsolf and Greg Vaughn taking over the roles of Brady and Eric) and ones I haven't liked (Brandon Breemer and Kyle Brandt for Shawn-D and Philip come to mind). So I'm in wait and see mode on this---I'm holding off judgement until I see what Kassie brings to the role of Eve.

If Peter Reckell had said "I'll be back, don't worry" after being recast, I'd be thinking the same things. It's wonderful to interest and appreciate one's fans, but she took very little tact when it came to Kassie.

I'd actually like someone on the show to have a southern accent, since neither of the girls from Birmingham do. :shame:

I love KDP, and I wasn't that attached to original Eve, so I'm good.

From what is going on on twitter, she definitely has a big fanbase. Lots of her fans are saying, they will start watching "Days".

One tweet to let her fans know that she does love the role and would have liked to come back seems pretty harmless, especially after some of those fans felt a little misused by her twitter campaign a few weeks ago. I don't see the problem unless she makes a habit of it.

^^Well they will need to if they bring her back with a teenaged Claire. ;-)
Claire should be what.. around 7 or 8 now which means Belle should be around 30.. Its odd to think of most of Sami's kids are older than Claire, But she should be only about a year Older than Bo and Hopes daughter.
If we ever see Claire again, I'm sure she'll be de-sorased, but she should be a lot older than seven or eight. Ciara is either 8 or 10, depending on the day, and Claire was four or five while Ciara was still a baby.

I don't get the argument that this recast doesn't matter because all the people CR's Eve interacted with are gone. What does that have to do with anything?

I agree with JarlenaLante that " Some recasts work, others don't, and it's a lot to do with the eye of the beholder, IMO." I think the show traded up on Brady, Belle and Pre-MA-Jack. And the recast Billie, Eric, Will and RC-Mike were fine. Of course, that doesn't mean every role is recastable.

So people were excited about KDP until they found out she was going to come back as a character LAST seen on canvas back in the early 90s. THIS IS SO WRONG everyone writes.

Then Charlotte Ross thanks her fans for asking her to come back letting them know she couldn't and congratulates KDP on twitter. Either she's hinting that the very popular KDP will be tossed aside once she's available to come back OR she's trying to undermine the new actress with remarks limited to 140 characters. (Which coincidentally would be a very "Eve" thing to do).

You have to love soap fans. They look for drama EVERYWHERE. :drunk:

IDK, I think that would be different because he just left, and he had the option to return and chose not to. CR hasn't been on the show in decades and it sounds like she really was interested in coming back and they just couldn't work it out. But if she's serious about Eve being her favorite role, I could understand it if she doesn't want to think she passed up her only opportunity to play her again.

I loved CR as Eve, but I love KDP as well so I am willing to give her a chance and see how it works. I just really hope she addresses her sister as Jeannie, and could care less how she feels about it.

Her guy could just stand on the step of the Horton cabin when necessary. Or there's always Eej.

I like KDP and have no problem with her as EVE. Just please stop trying to make Jennifer and Daniel the rooting couple. They are NOT!!!! If Eve destroys them for good and it causes Jennifer to move on with Liam or another love interest, it will be all good. However, if she comes in
as a mere obstacle for Dannifer with the writers trying to force them into being soulmates against "mean" Eve, it's gonna fail.

If anything the audience will root for Eve against Dannifer. That's how much they are despised as a couple. Daniel is far more likeable outside Jen's orbit and deserves a meaty new story and love interest, Jennifer-free. I LIKE Daniel away from Jennifer. So if Eve destroys them permanently, causing both characters to get new love interests, good for her. I will be cheering!!!
