Single-mom Belle because Shawn D died or they divorced? Hmm...if he died maybe - but if they divorced that might cause friction between Hope and Belle John/Marlena. Which, now that I think about it, might be a good thing. Belle cheated on Shawn? Shawn cheated on Belle? Or did they just drift apart off-canvas? I bet it was all that time at sea... :laugh: In any event, they do need to bring back some core-on-canvas-couples kids. Don't get me wrong, I'd LOVE to see Andrew & Philip both return - but to bring back Belle & Claire could create some good material for KA, the DHs, MM, EM, etc. And Claire & Ciara could be total BFFs! :chee:
I'd rather have Shawn (could be a reacast, i don't care) return over Belle. Hope could use her adult son & granddaughter in Salem. Even with Sami leaving, Marlena still has Eric, Will, & to a lesser degree, Brady.
Of course, Shawn wouldn't be able to return without adding a whole bunch of people from that age group to the canvas. Right now, the only person that's in that age range is Theresa. Even Brady's been SORASed to be more Eric's age than Theresa's.
Hope has Ciara, who the writers seem to love and who gets a lot of story and airtime for such a young character. Belle is John and Marlena's only child together. Give them a break! Hope and Aiden can have a baby down the road.
This!! John and Marlena need their ONLY child together back. She should be leading the show as the "next generation leading lady" with men fighting for her.

I think the time with the freezertruck was a mistake but he has touch them
On other times too, but I guess AS is okey with it. Anyway I don't think there
is anything between them just that they are really close which is rare
among two people who are just friends. The writers have said they never
seen two people with more chemistry.
The writers need eye exams.
Eye exams or put down the pipes.Maybe JS is not the only one who reaped the benefit of the Peruvian "tobacco" blowing shaman.

Even in soap-land, Hope's not exactly in that "childbearing" age range any more. lol. And yes, Hope has Ciara, but Ciara's a child. I was talking about adult aged children that would give the parents more story without the parents having to be constantly involved in the story. Shawn would go to Hope to seek her advice about stuff and would give Hope his thoughts on things going on with her. Ciara doesn't really go to her mom for advice and she's been written as keeping to herself about many things and only being vocal about disliking Aiden & Chase. Belle may be the only child John & Marlena had together, but she's not the only child either of them had that's now at an adult age.
I'm not saying that I wouldn't want to see Belle back in Salem, but if I had to pick between her & Shawn, I'd rather see Shawn. Not to mention that Hope's already got Bo off on some undercover mission, the last thing she deserves is to have a son that's doing the same thing to his wife & young child (of course, Claire could always be SORASed to be JJ's age if TPTB wanted her to be).

So we should just throw Shawn Douglas, a legendary character himself, under the bus just so John & Marlena can have their daughter back in Salem? Doesn't seem very fair to me.

in my opinion The show have not leading man in years.ej was not leading man but ej had leading man airtime and promote as leading man but writing was for ej mess.leading man have combination the actor and the writing and few other stuff too

daniel treating as leading man but is not leading man at all
IA theres a difference between leading man and shoved in our faces all the time characters. Daniel and EJ fit into those roles. EJ is a villian, villians are not leading roles. Some may not want tho hear it but Rafe is more leading material. I never saw Sami as leading till around 2009. If James Scott and AS were such great actors they would have won Emmys by now.

I think Hope is supposed to be in her late forties. Not prime child bearing age but not impossible. Not that I necessarily want to see Hope have another child. But Hope herself was late in life child for Addie and Ciara would absolutely hate another child taking attention away from herself. In that sense I might might find a Haiden baby an interesting story.

Baby stories are generally for the younger characters of course, but I have this fear of Days giving Dannifer a baby. If a fortysomething couple were to have a child I'd rather it be Haiden.

Ugh thisn is horrible. James Scott is my reason for watching days. And now he is leaving. Im really upset about this. Days will have tp make sure that they keep Kristen around for awhile to make up for it otherwise days is going to be one hell of a boring soap. I guess its safe to say that sami gors into hiding from Stefano because she will be killing Ej. My only hope is that they both return at some point :(

I for one would love to have Belle back and then Shawn back later down the road, Hope has her(she Rock's) other daughter from Bo, I mean Sami is leaving soon (ty soap gods) Eric and Will just don't do it for me and Brady is no use for me

jmho there are many excellent actors/actresses in daytime without emmys. For example, basically the entire cast of Days present and past.

I honestly have no idea what this show will look like in six months without AS and JS. I am both excited and terrified. Sure, we will have ED and KDP which will certainly help. However, knowing this show, it will shoehorn even more MR and SC. It's a mystery what we're going to get.

I've always thought the ridiculous of the SORASing of Elvis made the character silly. I've also never really jumped aboard the EJ train in any capacity. I'm not a Sami OR EJ fan, so this is not sad news for me, really. What does worry me is that I love Stefano and I doubt we'll ever see Tony again, so this makes Chad the sole DiMera heir. How unbelievably lame. I'm glad we still have Kristen. I'd love to see Peter come back too. Now if only SC would take off to Peru and come to the same realization. Then maybe (if the show hires actors NOT MODELS!! who can act and writers who can write) we'll have a chance to rebuild.

Of course you would want SD for Hope. But I don't see it your way at all. Like I said, Hope can have more children. She has a new romance going on, she has Ciara, she's a freaking Horton. SD can come back eventually, but if *I* had to choose, it would be Belle without Shawn. John and Marlena need their daughter. I could care less about Marlena's children with Roman, or John's jackass son Brady. It was bad enough that tptb sorased Belle ten years over night. Hope had SD for his whole childhood practically. It's time for Belle to come home and help get her parents back together.

Like you said about Belle, she can come back eventually. SD could also eventually come back, once Belle is romantically involved with someone else.

Why is SD more important than Belle? Because he's a Horton/Brady? Because he's Bope's kid? I don't think either are more important than the other. I just think it's time for Belle to come back now, not his time. His dad is gone and Hope has enough on her plate. J&M need someone to help get them back together. They have nothing/nobody right now. Brady could care less about them and Eric has always sided with his fauxfather.
