I really don't think that's Ben. Chad and Lucas would have much stronger reactions. Abby probably thinks she sees him or something like that.

Whatever it is,it definitely has her freaked out. LOL

It will be nice to see some drama. :blulaugh:

Wonder if she is hallucinating seeing Ben since by then she knows he's escaped.

The head writer change article does make me a little more optimistic. Griffith leaving on his own really removes the bad taste this change initially left in my mouth. I do think that there's more to it, like him not wanting to remain partners with Higley. At least we know he wasn't fired. Corday's two page thank you letter to Griffith was a pretty nice touch. The man really did bring this show out of the worst funk I've ever witnessed in 20 years. And that includes JER Part 2!

Nicole, Kate and Victor are three of my favorite characters, so I'm totally with Quan in that regard. It would put me at ease to know that he's also a fan of John, Marlena, Steve and Kayla, though, like Griffith. I guess we will see. It's also pretty cool that he was responsible for incorporating Ciara stealing the jacket out of the department store on the anniversary episode to pay homage to Julie. That's awesome! I don't know why, but I'm really getting Ron Carlivati vibes from Quan. That kind of reference is something Carlivati would've done on GH or OLTL. He loved his show's history and incorporating history in today's stories. I really hope Quan is similar.

The only thing I didn't really like about Quan's article was him saying he liked writing anything Kristen related. I'm really not in the mood for another round of Kristen. Especially after that last awful return. I would need the story to actually call for Kristen's return. Not just having her come back for the sake of having Kristen back. That just never works out well. Honestly, I hope Y&R keeps Eileen very busy as Ashley moving forward. :lol:
Me either. I can't see a Kristen return. She seems happy at Y&R. I would hate for her to come back we have enough crazy people on the canvas right now.

I liked Kristen's 2012-2013 stint. I think she had a great exit with the scandalous wedding and the car crash. They shouldn't have brought her back for 2 lame story arcs after that (John's coma and the castle). I would be fine with her returning in a few years if they have a strong story but it's too soon now.

Eh, I'm not sying she should come without a story but it's not that a story guarantees anything.
Now they have the Summer/Brady/Daniel's heart/Theresa/ Nicole story. They invested a lot in it: casted an actress, did a location shooting and? A lot viewers dislike it. The same happened with the Serena/Eric/elephant story.
Idk, IMO it's difficult to say whether something will work or not until we see it. So, I'd rather have something and then see if I like it, than not have it at all.

JG does have other projects so I guess, even if he had stayed, he probably wouldn't have been 100% focused on Days but I do think Higley was the reason he didn't stay. He probably would've figured out a way to do everything. It is interesting that Corday wrote that "thank you" because it makes me think that he may consider bringing JG back. It doesn't sound like he disliked his vision or writing at all. I am really interested in reading the entire article but I am a bit more optimistic about this. Quan sounds a bit more involved than I expected and, hopefully, we will get something like we did in Fall where it's more Quan that Higley and Griffith can come back down the road when Higley is phased. I have my doubts because Quan is not Griffith, who had experience and Sony backing to ensure he got influence right out of the gate.

EJ's death was not terrible, it was quite well done. The aftermath (or no aftermath) was what was terrible.

And yay :cheer: for anything Kristen!
If I weren't being so stubborn and pissed off at DAYS right now I would be really excited that he likes Kristen so much. She might be able to lure me back in, but that would be about the only way...well there is another way, but I'm not very hopeful about that right now.

A great return IMO would involve the return of Eric from prison in about 2-3 years coinciding with Kristen's return from the dead. Great November sweeps potential. It won't happen of course, but great potential.

The kidnapping and Chad/Abby/Ben stuff sounds great!

I am shocked Days is already addressing the writing change in interview form with Corday comments and everything. The past few years they usually take forever to do that. That tells me they are VERY worried about fans revolting because Higley is still there. I don't think they would comment so quickly otherwise. I really want to read the whole thing but I like what Quan says. I like that he has been promoted from within and fresh blood is needed. He came off good in the bits of the interview that are posted. His comments may also bode well for some sort of Kristen return too given he seems to like writing for her.

It's interesting that Quan also went into so many specifics like what characters he likes to write for and what stories he wants to be careful with (Theo's). It made it seem like he will have the kind of influence Griffith had, which is shocking with Higley there. We will see.
A Kristen return would have to be really carefully written for me to like it. Given the destruction she caused J&M, I'd need the opposite to happen now. Plus you'd imagine she'd be after Marlena again for causing her 'death'. She'd probably want Tate back too
It's unrealistic, but I'd be just fine & dandy if she were completely out of J&M's orbit and was brought back ONLY to cause Brady & Creature a serious whirlwind of shit. It would be a win-win if she ended up killing Creature & going to prison for the rest of her life, leaving Brady to raise Evan by himself. :cheer:

Ej's death or non-death needs to be solved even if AS has to return for a visit, what the hell am I saying? What the hell am I drinking :drunk: it's just got three "X"'s on it does that mean something?
If they aren't going to recast & no JS, then I couldn't care less about that dumb story. I'd be fine if it were never mentioned again. :D

Kate and Nicole are 2 strong characters, they can both be very entertaining. But they have suffered awful writing those past few years (except early TomSell for Nicole, when she was working with Eric at the church IMO). I hope Quan can make them great again.


Just because she had a sl early TomSell doesn't mean anything She wasn't STRONG at all All she did was explained herself to Eric and stood behind him weeping GV & AZ have chemistry but gosh They needed way more than being trapped somewhere professing their love and her lying all the time..
So true! The writing for her has been AWFUL 95% of the time since her 2nd miscarriage. I really enjoyed her with Xander, but that was due to PT & AZ, because the writing sucked.

I haven't liked the writing for her since she got out of prison. There was a brief respite during SOME of Ericole, but a lot of that wasn't the writing. I feel like they haven't really known what to do with her since she was caught with Sydney.

SID has another pic inside the magazine of the Chabby wedding. Abby's holding the bouquet and looks shocked and scared and Chad is also looking at whatever Abby's looking (Ben, I assume). The only guests that are visible is Jennifer and Lucas. :)

(btw, the spoilers are what we already know)
LUCAS!!! Please please please let him have an emotional confrontation his son's killer.
:cheer: I need this like I need oxygen!

I would happily take a bad story with Kristen over a bad story with Summer & Daniel's heart ANY day. :blulaugh:

I'm glad that he likes Nicole. Hopefully she will get better writing.

But just because he mentioned a select few doesn't mean that he doesn't like the other characters. JMO

Jen must have just gotten her painkillers refilled, because she looks like she just doesn't have a f*** to give about whatever the rest of them are looking at!
