There are a few new publicity photos of JLa posted at NBC Media Village: http://www.nbcumv.com/programming/nbc-entertainment/days-our-lives?division=1&network=33129

That bottom pic of James and this pic of Stephen would look scarily similar if both pics were taken from the same angle.

Is the bad publicity concerning JM good for DAYS? Could it translate to higher ratings?
No, I doubt it. This is something that Days doesn't need so soon after the renewal. It was the worst possible time for him to say something this irresponsible and distasteful.

On top of Higley returning, this adds to Days current troubles BTS which need to be handled sooner or later. John needs to be fired if he hasn't been already. In any other work environment, you'd be gone too.

No I don't think this is the type of publicity Days needs right now especially with this story. I'm use to GH getting a bad rap for their social media considering the antics of BC,NV,NLG. I think Days needs to get in front of this and make a statement. I do wonder if JMc is still with Days.

While I see where she's coming from I don't agree with her statement about how she states legacy child being raped as if that has never happened before on a soap. Even GH had Michael raped in prison. I do think its good that everyone is having a discussion on this aside from JMc antics.
I think people just like to add the "legacy" term to characters as if that makes the subject matter more important.

To some it does... in this case it shouldn't really matter.
It shouldn't matter who it is but, your right legacy is thrown around like it means that this character should be off limits. There are quit a bit of legacy families on all soaps so chances are something will happen to a legacy character because, that's where you get the most impact.

I think his status with the show is the key piece in this case. If he's done, can they still tell him to knock it off since he has stuff left to air? I'm not sure.

I mean, Days has had other SM flaps in the past (hello Missy!), and the show doesn't seem to do anything. This is a bit different, however, since it's related to a story that is currently playing onscreen.

Days PR is rarely on top of things. And between JM being a fool and #notohigley I hope they're having a terrible week.

And if he's done some will draw the conclusion that there's not much Days could do & that maybe he did this out of spite for being written out like this.

Yeah, this is probably the worst week Days has had from a PR standpoint in quite a while. I don't think it's going to get much better, however, since I think some high profile firings are still coming....

I have some suggestions for people that could go, but I'm sure they won't choose the same people.

Totally. :)

Okay, and can someone set me straight on this: Are Stephen's eyes green? I mean, they look green, but they're not bright green. (It's actually kind of embarrassing I have to ask because my eyes are seemingly the same color and shade as Stephen's, but it's kind of hard to tell in pics :P ).

They are green, but they are light enough that it's hard to tell sometimes.

Ari Zucker interview
http://boards.soapcentral.com/showthread.php?1047782-Arianne-Zucker%28Nicole%29-Interview

I read the mag and that's mostly an accurate summary;
-- except that she did not specifically say GV chose to leave.

Here is what she did say:
"I know our characters never really got to give the fans what they wanted to see, which was a true relationship between Eric and Nicole," she acknowledges. "There is a sadness about that. But Greg wanted to make a change. He has good reasons for moving forward in his life to do other things. So for that, I'm really proud of him. He's a really dear friend and we'll keep in touch."

We know that GV's interview said his contract wasn't renewed because the tptb wanted him gone --yet they extended his existing contract a few months in order to finish up a storyline. He was clear that it wasn't his choice to leave.

When AZ said "Greg wanted to make a change", I don't know what she meant there. Maybe it meant that after he was let go, he decided to try new things with his life? I really don't know.

-------------
-- Edit to add one more minor point ...
The author of the magazine article actually said "the exit of her on-screen love interest, Shawn Christian".
(The magazine author didn't mention Ari and Shawn's off-screen relationship.).
Ari referred to Shawn as someone she worked with.

Quoting limited to 3 levels deep[twitter=ChristopherSean/status/701245511781593088]

And he liked my tweet saying is that a hint. If he's for Paul that would make me happy.
A Paul/Dario/Sonny triangle? I could see that. It could be interesting since Sonny is Ari's dad and Gabi is also Dario's brother.
I'm on board. It was weird that Dario was in LA but wasn't keeping in touch with Rafe and Gabi. Maybe he's not ready to come out to his family. Isn't Mama Hernandez supposed to be a very religious woman? I would like to see some real conflict in the family about Dario's sexuality because they seemed afraid to go there with Will, Sonny and Paul. Everyone pretty much accepted immediately. It's good to show progressive families but it's not always like that in real life.

Paul/Dario could very well be happening. I dunno why he would've gone out of his way to say that if there wasn't something up.

But just keep in mind that at one point, CS also had a fair number of fans convinced that Paul/Will was happening after Sonny left.

:blulaugh: Christopher Sean the charmer. I read a story where someone was convinced Paul and Will would hook up by the way Chris blinked twice at them at an event.

As for Paul/Dario..... noooooo. I loyally bit my tongue through the most painful triangle ever last year and got no reward, I can't see Paul with anyone until I get my reward for everything that transpired between Paul and Sonny after the reveal. Not a single ship I shipped remains afloat, just give me this one DOOL.

Random thought: I hope Freddie Smith is around long enough to reveal wth Sonny wrote for his 2015 new year's wish.

Maybe that's why Sonny is returning, they will give Paul/Sonny some resolution and then Paul will be able to move on with Dario. I wouldn't mind that. I would love to see PaulSon together but realistically it can only be short-lived unless Freddie is staying for good and I'm doubtful he is.
