For example, Rachel Melvin has said in many tweets she'd go back to Days in a heartbeat. Yet, nobody's calling her, even though now would be the perfect time for Chelsea to return, for a number of reasons.
I think they need to bring back Chelsea or Stephanie. I fail to see why they keep bringing back Melanie while Chelsea and Stephanie are more important characters not to mention, that they had solid performers portraying them. Ciara could use her big sister. Hope and Chelsea had a good relationship by the end of her run, so they could explore that . Hope could use the support. Chelsea is Kate and Victor's grand daughter and can be inserted into either Titan or Basic Black's story. And who knows with Melvin and Flynn being solid actors, a Chad/Chelsea pairing could be good. Ugh ! Not a big RM fan & just Noooo to pairing her with Billy F . I would be okay with a Stephanie return though .

I wish KM all the best and I can understand that she is young and wants to try new things. But the grass doesn't always turn out to be greener. It is hard to get steady work as an actor. I think she will really be sorry she left a secure job where she had fans who appreciated her. Maybe after a few years on the actor's unemployment line, she'll she'll appreciate a good job when she finds one. In the meantime I hope we get a blonde recast. BF is the power in this couple and I believe they can find someone else we will like. After all, BF was a recast and we like him.
Unless Abby is "dead",in a facilty for treatment for mental illness,or incapable of caring for her son for some other plausible reason,Thomas needs to leave with her.To do otherwise would make her appear to be a horrible mother.I loved Abby until the writers had her cheat on Ben with Chad. I will miss seeing KM as Abby but I wish her all the best in her career and believe she can do well outside of daytime. I am not against a recast.I just hope the new person can act.If you don't mind answering,I just wondered why a blonde recast.I wish they had allowed KM to keep her natural hair color when she arrived in Salem as Abby. Since Abby is supposed to be Jennifer's daughter I thought she looked more like Jennifer as a blonde. I also thought she was prettier. It's just my opinion. However, I've read a lot of complaints about her hair on this board so I don't think I'm alone. But, it's still my personal taste. Everyone else is free to want the recast to have any haircolor they want. I still vote for blonde.

So what's the difference?

I still have the feeling that Abby will have a breakdown. I think Ben will come back for some reason thus causing Abby to have a mental breakdown.
She will have to go off for treatment. Thomas will be left with Chad in Salem. I think Chad and Abby will be married when she leaves.
While Abby is away recovering Chad will be dealing with being a single dad. Some conflict would come in with Andre and maybe Jennifer/JJ.

Maybe Ben escapes. Abby becomes terrified that Ben is coming after her. So she starts freaking out thinking she sees him different places.

Maybe Abby loses it when she starts planning another wedding so quickly after planning her last. She may start having hallucinations with Jack walking her down the aisle to Ben instead of Chad.

There are some expressions that are just killer close. MA clearly has a leaner and more angular face, but you can superimpose MR's roundness and get a fair approximation of Casey Moss.
Shelley Hennig looked far less like a child of S&K. But James Lastovic is perfect.

Well I hope they do a wedding with KM there. MA wasn't filming until around Kate's final weeks so unless they waited until her final weeks for a wedding, she won't be hallucinating Jack walking her down the aisle.

I think Abby is going to be infected by something during the CDC story that's causes her too hallucinate about Ben and Jack. She will have to go away for a few months to recover leaving Thomas with Chad.
I would kill for a Chabby wedding with KM in the role. I don't think it will happen but I would love it.

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm not too excited about the upcoming CDC stuff. I don't think this regime does events/event story telling very well. I guess we'll have to wait and see....

I don't know how I feel about the CDC storylline. However, I think this will be the first big story for Griffith and Milistein so I'm interested to see how it goes, one way or another.
Yeah, I would much rather Abby's breakdown be just because of genetics and a year of trauma she hasn't taken the time to digest. But we'll see.

For me, on the other hand, it's the only story I'm really looking forward to other than everything concerning Chad and Abby. I feel like this story has the potential to be quite interesting and dramatic, plus AFAIK it hasn't been already done umpteenth times before.
