Wasn't there some rant on twitter around the time Hapka was leaving the show? For whatever reason I seem to remember him going on a tirade and I found it hilarious but now I can't recall it. |

He did a chat, and then he started a rumor that he was one of the actors returning during the reset. |

We're going to try something new with the Monday discussion threads. I'm going to try and start them on Friday and start them with a classic clip like we used to do when we had only weekly discussion threads. However, it's going to be a bit more interactive so that it's not just me picking the clip every week. I'm not 100% sure how this will work, but for this week, whoever is the 7th person to post in Wednesday's discussion thread will get to choose the next clip. I'll still post it, but they'll pm me a selection. The only restriction is that the clip needs to be from any regime prior to the current one. So anything prior to August of 2012. |

Mark Hapka is the actor in the clip above. He played Nathan Horton, Melissa's son, from 2009 until 2011. He was fired from the show when, according to what he claims, he asked that the show give him and his colleagues some work to do, instead of giving storylines to only 5 people and making everybody else supporting players in the background. This was the time when Dena Highley was still writing the show and airtime was extremely unevenly distributed. The only ones who had a storyline were Alison Sweeney, James Scott, Galen Gering, Shawn Christian and Molly Burnett; they were featured all that time, whereas some other people were at times absent for an entire month. This fact was discussed a lot on this board, but Hapka was the first one to openly acknowledge that people working for the show were aware of this fact, as well. He also said that he'd never met Dena Highley during his time on the show, which tarnished her already bad reputation even further and confirmed a lot of things that had been suspected about her. However, while was mad at the TPTB at Days, he also indirectly encouraged fans to start a campaign to bring him back. Then, a couple of weeks later, Soaps.com claimed to have been infromed by Hapka on FB that he was returning to the show. The same site later shut down the rumor with a very confusing explanation: the message came form Hapka's account, but he claimed it wasn't him who had sent it. Until this day, we still don't know who the real liar in that story is, but some believe the message really did come from Hapka himself. |

I'm totally the cheese standing alone on this, but I really liked Nathan and his character. It was Melanie that I hated in regards to Nathan. |

Yeah, I didn't mind Nathan either, but he became completely intolerable when he was all obsessed with Melanie. |

I didn't mind him at all. But what always comes to mind with him is how he was ALL ABOUT Melanie/Nathan being the next big supercouple and he was basically shipping them any time he opened his mouth, but onscreen he played Nathan as totally in love with Stephanie. It was so weird. |
