Okay, this made me laugh. For those not familiar, Robin was a vet actress on OLTL, and GT wrote there for a time. It should also be noted that this is typical Robin. She doesn't hold back at all.

I'm trying to remember the VI RSW pic from September. Didn't we think the magazine on the board behind them was an August edition. Maybe Ben is back soon.
Yes, it was from the big August 50th promo from People Mag. As you said, though, the pic was posted in late September. So, if he posted it same-day, we still have a way to go. But if he waited to post...who knows?

Hmm... Maybe a few weeks? I don't recall exactly.

Right. Thanks! I wonder how current they keep those boards because if it was late August early September, Ben would show up soon. That wedding doesn't need another complication.

Hmmm Jason usually announces returns close to air dates also. When was RSW's announced?

Quoting limited to 4 levels deep
Okay. I don't use the word "ruin" anymore because if I'm going to watch these characters on a soap opera and it's not the 1980's, they are going to do stuff I'm not going to like and it's not going to be written well sometimes. People thought Kayla was "ruined" because she gave up on Bo, but once Bo was back and they had those amazing scenes, everything was fine. Steve's been ruined more times than I can count at this point.

Yes, the story was not written well, particularly as to Steve not trying to find Kayla before he left with Ava. Yes, that makes him look dumb and passive. But he's not ruined for me. Just damaged a bit and I'm hoping that by the time this story wraps up, some of that damage is repaired. Time will do the rest. It always does.

And I've never said Kayla shouldn't be angry at him for the things he is responsible for. That includes letting Ava get back into their lives and it definitely includes how he handles things from here on out. I'm looking forward to a time when they get to express these feelings and when both of them get to express their POV's. Where it all falls after that remains to be seen.
You are right that in the long run he might not be "ruined forever" but at this present moment, that is what I am feeling about the way he's been written.
And I'm worried it will all be swept under the rug and they won't even have Kayla bothered by it (or anyone else). We will be expected to get past it.
Right now I really don't think I CAN get past it.
I truly am not sure - this is as low as I have seen any writer go with Steve. I am literally disgusted. And it's not because of Ava. If it was,
I'd be perfectly fine with the "endgame" goal of getting Steve and Kayla back together. I don't want to watch a weak, passive, out of character Steve...
And I don't want Kayla to instantly forgive him for what he IS guilty of, because Ava raped him either.

ETA: I know you agree with me on some of this, just explaining where I'm coming from
(also in my previous reply I was also addressing cord08 posts about the issue)
Honestly, I think 2008 was way worse than this. In that case, we had Steve lying to Kayla for months about the threat Ava posed. He didn't tell her that Ava sabotaged the plane, that Ava threatened Kayla, or that he had been in a relationship with Ava. He lied to her and bought her potato chips and dip.

Then, when Ava mistakenly kidnapped Hope, he still didn't tell anyone, let alone Kayla. Instead, he gave himself up to Ava, had one lame attempt at an escape, did a whole "flashback" memory dinner leading straight to a full on kiss that it took Hope to bring him out of.

Then, after Kayla and Bo arrived and were captured, we got to hear Ava's story of their wedding day and got to hear Steve tell Ava that he loved her and was sorry he couldn't say goodbye. We got to hear Steve tell Angelo how worried he was about Ava and the pills. And, of course, we got to hear Steve offer to leave his wife and children to make a baby with Ava. It wasn't Ava who forced him into that bed in 2008, it was Steve offering himself to her.

Then, after all of that, we got to see Steve sit beside Ava's bedside and cry over her. Meanwhile his wife got to try and heal her. I'm sorry, but in my opinion, Dena took Steve way lower in 2008 than anything that happened this week, or this month.

And to top it all off, Steve and Kayla didn't get to talk about it for three months. But, guess what, they survived that travesty. They weren't ruined (at least for most people). They'll survive this too, I imagine. And I have reason to hope that the fallout/aftermath will be much better than what happened in 2008.
No doubt 2008 was awful...Maybe I feel worse about this because Steve was acting so *in* character for the last couple of months, I felt like I had
Steve back...and what a complete and absolute turnaround in such a short span of time. It feels like losing Steve all over again for some reason.
Last time I was probably just as angry but already knew not to expect more from the writers. This time I thought things were different, and I let myself think
it wouldn't get *this* bad. I thought I was prepared for the awfulness of Dena but I was blindsided by what they did to Steve.

That Meng tweet is very interesting. It's starting to seem like DC is back for more than an appearance.

If they resurrect Aiden, I'm going to bet that the bling item posted a few weeks ago about a an actress being unhappy despite getting great, frontburner story is KA. We all know she was all about Haiden and she has been very quiet aside from certain interviews here and there. As has Galen Gering. It seems neither actor was totally into this. It shows in their scenes that they are trying but not passionate about it It could just be the horrible story but still. The Hope/Rafe thing was present while Griffith had more control but it wasn't like this. Dena seemed far more obsessed with it than anyone. I wonder if once Griffith and Beth took hold, they dumped the Rafe/Hope mess altogether to salvage both characters. We keep seeing Rafe in that denim shirt. Maybe Rafe goes to prison for Hope or something and gets isolated for awhile and Hope is on her own ans rebuilds her life for a bit before DC returns as Aiden and then her story goes in that direction.

This is very interesting. I could see KA, along with SN and MBE, complaining about the past few months of story. Corday loves KA so if she said something, that would weigh heavily.

Oh I had forgotten about him. Now I remember reading that the actor portraying the lookalike is good friends with RSW in real life.
The lookalike will be on March 3rd.

RSW appeared in this video on the official Days facebook page
https://www.facebook.com/daysofourlives/videos/10153715716064309/
That was the day of the reveal (to the viewers) that Ben was the necktie killer.
Video dated Sept 24, 2015.
At the time, we wondered if he had pre-taped the video before leaving -- or more likely that he was back filming again.

A visit to the studio Sept 24 for that video, works with the date of VI's Sept 30th tweet.

It seems that timing all coincides. I'd imagine he could have filmed that video earlier though. Is that what he was wearing in the cast photo? That was August and it looks the same.

Jason's tape-to-airdate
Week of 9/21/15-9/25/15 # 12795-12801 (airing 3/4/16-3/14/16)
Week of 9/28/15-10/2/15 # 12802-12809 (airing 3/15/16-3/24/16)

The lookalike will air on the March 3rd episode.

And then there's RSW's Days facebook video of Sept 24th
and Vincent's tweet of Sept 30th.

That all lines up.

Here's the People photoshoot pic. You're right, he's dressed the same.

The People photoshoot was August 6th, but he probably came back just for that.

If the wording of this tweet means anything story-wise, I'm totally going to hate the fallout. Not that I expected any better from Days, but still...

is Andre's revenge actually sick..or is it justified?
It's sick because he's using a troubled & confused teen as a pawn in his revenge game.
I also don't know that it's truly justified. I mean...even he doesn't seem to like Stefano.
Yeah, wasn't Andre trying to steal everything from Stefano? Now he acts like he always looked out for him.

We can always count on Stephen for a mystery/partial ear pic. ;)

NBC also renewed Chicago Med and Law & Order: SVU earlier this week.
I hope the announcement for Days is coming.
