If we could have a show with JUST the VETS I would be so happy lol. Unrealistic I know... but I can dream lol.

And by VETS I mean: John, Marlena, Steve, Kayla, Hope, Doug, Julie, Caroline, Victor, Maggie (I say that begrudgingly lol), Jennifer ect...
I love vets but a vet show would not only be boring but also very expensive.
I know it would be expensive... that's why I said "I can dream" lmao.

But it wouldn't bore me. Honestly I don't think I like any character on this show at the moment who's under 50 lol.

LOL, I like a few characters under 50, but not many.

If they make cast cuts, though, I do think the "Big 5" vets, if you will, are safe (DHer, DHim, SN, MBE, KA). I know that four of those folks have been fired before, but that's part of the reason I don't think they'd get the ax this time. I could be totally wrong about this, of course, but I think there are others who'd be on the chopping block before them.

They could & should also cut the wardrobe budget. Sorry not sorry, but do they really need designer name shoes that cost around $800 for a scene lasting 2-3 minutes & the shoes might not make it to air? Or a cape that's $400 for another two or three scenes? Designer suits for some of the men that can cost $300 - $1,000?

Don't get me wrong - I love that they all want to look glamorous and if there's a special occasion like a gala :glare: :blulaugh: then yeah spend a bit more, but for the day to day scenes, cut it back a few bucks.

Cut:
Hope
Rafe
Belle
Ciara
Eddie
Phillip
Theresa
Brady
Chase
John
Marlena
Roman
Fynn
All the other Hernandez can go-minus Gabi.
Many of them are played out Or just not needed.



Put on recurring:
Nicole
Maggie
Jennifer
JJ
Chad
Joey
They may be needed, but not all the time

No recasting of Abby. Should bring back Stephanie also bring Alexander Kiriakis on. Bring Kassie back as new love interest for Justin and can have a new character/ justin/ Adrienne/VI's character quad.

Do they really buy some of those items, or do they borrow/rent them? I know they rent some of the formal clothes, but I'm curious about some of the other items.

If they are buying $400 dollar shoes, then yes, they really need to rethink what they're doing with the wardrobe. My question, though, is: If they are spending that much already, why the hell do so many characters' outfits already look cheap?

Caroline
I think it's time to write her out before we get another Stefano situation where the actor can't do the work that's required. Then Roman can retire from the force and take over the pub.

Kate
She has become a caricature of what she once was. It's a combination of writing and Lauren Koslow's acting tics. It's played out, I haven't enjoyed her in 10 years. I have seen alot of complaints that she sleeps around but that is probably the one thing that doesn't bother me about her. A character who likes sex and is not apologizing for it. It's refreshing compared to others like Kayla and Marlena who live in celibat when they can't be with their soulmates.

Nicole
I haven't liked the writing for her since early 2011. Get her back to the fun and scheming vixen she once was and stop pairing her with the good guys. If not, time to let her go.

Rafe
Why is he still on the show? And why are they expanding his family again when it failed in 2009-2010?

Brady
He's always been an awful character played by bad actors since he was SORASed.

Joey
Bye

Eduardo
The character sounds great on paper, but on-screen he's just flat. A Martinez plays him so low-key, maybe that's the point but I'm not enjoying it. I think I might have with a different actor.

Lani
Monotone line delivery. Insta- connection with Abe because they're both black! What's the point?

Ciara
I saw potential in VJ early on and was willing to give her time to improve but she has almost gotten worse.

Belle
I'm not feeling Martha Madison this time around either.

Shawn
I feel the same about Brandon Beemer as with MM.

Philip
I can't stand JPL in the role. He sucked on OLTL and he sucks as Philip just like I knew he would. If they can't get JKJ back the character should be written out.

Victor
I haven't really liked Victor since around 2010. John Aniston looks bored most of the times.

Chase

If we get rid of Brady and Belle then Marlena/John have no children in town with Eric gone. I know Paul is there but he is so underdeveloped and isn't related by blood to Marlena. If you want to see more of J/M then you have to have some children around. Same for S/K if you get rid of Joey.

I like Teresa and think JL is a good actress but agree they have gone from one extreme to the other. Why can't she be a gray character. And unrealistic that she would be in Brady's life considering all she did. I'd keep her but pair up with someone else.

Being on recurring shouldn't cost much because it is dependent on being used so having Justin/Adrienne/Victor/Maggie/Caroline/Abe on recurring shouldn't be a big deal to the budget. As for Roman, either get rid of him or play out the big story that is ripe to tell which is him being a fake. Play it while Andre is still there.

I'm always partial to the Hortons because of their legacy. But they need some new blood. Keep Jennifer and Hope but there are so many other unexplored characters especially from Doug and Julie's family tree. They are beloved so bring on some Bannings or little Dougie, Sandy, Nathan, etc. I also really want Chelsea, Andrew, Alexander, Carrie, Peter and Stephanie back. They need the largest group to be in the 20s and 30s.

In terms of story, the best ratings DAYS has ever had best I know centered around Marlena - The twin story, DJ's death, the possession, Salem Stalker, fighting Kristen for John - so I'm lost why this show doesn't use her to its fullest. This is one thing James Riley recognized each time he was brought on as head writer.

Need Deimos as he is the next villain for the show. They need to interweave him further into the canvas. Victor was an evil character for years so fitting that there are other evil people in the family tree.

Please give Lucas a story. Is there any other male in town with the last name Horton?

I know Dena pitches a tent over the Hernandez family but I like the diversity. Not sure why they all had to come in being related but they must have something big coming up. I don't see Eduardo being a main character and Gabi will be leaving before long so that would just leave Rafe and Dario.

As for characters to go, I base mine on characters that either don't click or are not so good in the acting department. So mine would be Phillip, Fynn, Lani, Ciara, Roman. Most of the characters I thought should go went in the last 6 month purge. I LOVE AZ but she is getting to the point of being played out. She can't really go back to full on evil ways as she is getting too old for that, she has no children or other family around to play drama, and they have isolated her with characters that are now off the canvas so they would have to start from scratch and that could be tough to do. Agree Kate's character needs to go in another direction too. Since they aren't playing her children and Stefano is gone they are in a corner with her too unless they can somehow beef up the business side of things and make it intriguing. Having her sleep with every older man that comes into town is predictable. To be honest, I liked her with Rafe or at least a younger man (like maybe Justin or Deimos' son). Let her manipulate/control the male half instead of her children and fall deeply in love and then get played or have the younger male make her feel jealous or he has an affair/cheats her in business or something that causes her to want revenge while he is in love with another character on the canvas. She is such a great actress that I hate to see her go. I'd keep Andre until BF leaves the show which will happen at some point. Then I guess the DiMera clan is gone for good but I so want Renee or Peter or Megan to return with children and turn the place upside down.

I like your assessment of everyone - spot on except for Victor who I think is great. My only worry is that with Brady, Eric, Sami, Carrie, and Belle off the canvas then I'll see even less of John and Marlena or close to not at all. Will is dead and Claire likely would leave with Shawn and Belle so no grand children. They really need to beef up Marlena's psychiatry business. But ultimately I see her as the legacy character of the show and to have no children would be crazy.

I mean cutting all the characters or should I say half the characters would leave you with two options

A. A skeleton list of characters
B. Bringing on new cheaper characters that you have to integrate into the s/l...

Cutting off characters that people hate may seem good...

I don't get the characters that seem to have no place...

Like Summer, Lani, Fynn...

Summer...connected to Dan, Dan the Man, St. Jonas, Jonas Christ, Dr. OrangeGlow, Dr. Feelgood...moving on...
Lani....Abe's daughter, Theo's sister...Detective...not much else.
Fynn...Doctor...not much else.

The problem is with Kate, she's not really written for, neither is Lucas but he SHOULD be.

If previous cast cuts due to a budget slashing are any indication, I do think they'd cut a few vet characters. The question for me is: Which vets would they cut? Which cuts would have the biggest (positive) impact on the budget?

The only vet I think is completely, utterly safe is KA. I don't see any scenario in which Corday would allow her to be cut. And as I mentioned before, since they were cut in the last huge purge, I think the DHs, SN, and MBE are likely safe.

As others have said, moving folks like PM, JR, JT, and even SR to recurring seems like a no brainer. Although, considering Corday's close friendship with JT, I question whether he'd get on board with such a move. I also wonder if Corday would be able to put SR on recurring...I think he would have a hard time doing that.

Four vets I think are more vulnerable to a cut from a story standpoint are LK, AZ, TP, and MR. I know LK has some stuff coming up with TP, but she is being utterly wasted at this point. AZ just lost two love interests, and now they're bringing in NB to compete with any possible love interests Nicole might have. With JM out (for all intents and purposes), it really does feel like the DiMeras are on the wane, and TP's role seems more and more pointless. And MR, although a key Horton, is kind of in the same boat as LK -- they're just not using her to drive story.

I think Ken Corday is a sentimental person LOL and that's why these people are on contracts. Do they need to be on contract for social security reasons? Either way their contractual guarantees aren't high, I doubt the show will save much by using them less.

I do think if they were going to save money by cutting characters it would be cutting the pricey ones and that's usually the vets...not that that's what I want.

I never implied that a contract kept anyone safe.....??? I'm not sure where you think I implied that.

What I did say, and what another poster implied, is that sentimentality on the part of Corday might shield some folks from being bumped to recurring. :shrug:

I also think some of the other vets are safe right now because they are driving story, and cutting them would dismantle what I believe the show has tried so hard to rebuild (until Dena dismantled it).

Who I would cut:
THERESA. Bye, girl.
KATE. Does anyone actually care about Kate?
BRADY. He's a tabula rasa for the writers, I get it. But it's time to take away their man-boy plot-device crutch. Rest him for a long time, at the very least. Like a few years.
LANI & FYNN. They need to go. They are legitimately terrible and add nothing to the show.
VICTOR & MAGGIE. Time for them to go on a never-ending globe-trotting vacation.
EDUARDO + HERNANDEZ FAM. The writers don't seem to know what to do with them at all.

Characters dropped to recurring:
HOPE. Girlfriend, take a cruise with Julie. We'll see you in a year.
NICOLE. The Daniel thing kind of killed her for me.

Characters who should be recast:
BELLE. Maybe the writing hasn't been great, but MM hasn't made any effort -- it seems -- to elevate her material.
CIARA. VJ is awful, but the character could still be salvaged.

Characters the show can get rid of:
Rafe: the character is boring and useless IMO. Plus I'm tired of him stalking Hope.
Brady: he's insufferable at this point. The character needs a rest...bring him back in a few years if the show's still on.
Theresa
Fynn
Eduardo
Lani: I had high hopes for this character, but she's incredibly boring.
Philip: as soon as I start to think JPL isn't that bad, I start noticing his Balsom mannerisms again. He just doesn't fit the role.
Belle: she has no redeemable traits anymore...none.
Roman: he's hasn't had a real storyline in what...ten years? Was his last real story when he was with Kate? That's the last one I remember. I know Roman's been around a long time and no offense to JT, but I think he should at least be dropped to recurring.

The park set that has also doubled as various other locations.

How much do they spend on wardrobe? Do they actually buy the clothes or are some just lent to them? I don't know if they can save some money there. Have characters rewear outfits. People in real life don't have a new outfit for every single day of their lives.

Characters the show can get rid of:
Rafe: the character is boring and useless IMO. Plus I'm tired of him stalking Hope.
Brady: he's insufferable at this point. The character needs a rest...bring him back in a few years if the show's still on.
Theresa
Fynn
Eduardo
Lani: I had high hopes for this character, but she's incredibly boring.
Philip: as soon as I start to think JPL isn't that bad, I start noticing his Balsom mannerisms again. He just doesn't fit the role.

The only character I know that has reworn clothes is Brady and Theresa.
