Y&R alum Rachel Kimsey (ex-Mac) has been hired at DAYS as Meredith, who has a past connection to Galen Gering's Rafe. She will first air July 17. In other news, Nick Stabile (ex-Mark, BEACH) will make his Salem debut on June 25.

Are these short or long term roles?

I had such a crush on Nick when he was on SuBe. I never knew why they fired him.

[Toups]

Another FOG joins the cast!

[JackPeyton]

YES & YES!

OMG! Days is just on a freakin roll with casting my faves!!

Kimsey failed as Mac, but IMHO it wasnt her acting, she was MISCASTED. But it wa sobvious thats what they wanted for Mac.

And i love Nick!

I wonder if Meredith is Rafe's ex and that he grew attached to her and her baby like he has sami. His sister keeps saying that "Its happening again" WHAT IS IT?!?!

I cant wait.

I think they are shorter term.

But ya never know. They brought in Mia as a short term char and now shes a main character.

I do like how days has been handling newer characters. Like Arianna, whom many think has no point, is there for a story. It hasnt happened yet, but its in the works. Its like they knew where they were going and decided to bring her in early to establish her some. I like that. I think her purpose will pick up with RK joining as a woman from Rafe's past.

Somebody's going to be fired soon. There's been so much casting.

My dream is for Shawn Christian to be fired, but I know that's not going to happen. Tomlin loves him.

[CarlD2]

Somebody needs to get 90210 to hire Shawn so he will get off DAYS. I can imagine the promos. "Shawn and Lorie reunited again! And yes, Ryan Kwanten too! OK, somebody references True Blood, cause we're edgy that way. Just watch, please!"

The rumor mill is always swirling around Bryan Datillo to get the axe. If Chloe is going to end up with Daniel than there isn't much use for Lucas since Sami has Rafe and EJ. Lucas is a Horton but they are bringing on the new Horton doctor. BD is a possibility for a cast cut.

I think these are pretty much temp players, and if anything are paid for by losing Rachel, Darrin, letting go of Blake, etc... Days has had more people go than come, and many big names go.

I dont want SC to go. I love Daniel, and think SC is one of the better actors on Days.

Nadia and Brian can go. Write Lucas & Chloe off.

If they cant redeem Nicole, and idk how they could.... she can go to.

But days has a really small cast right now.

[CarlD2]

I'm surprised Nadia's still around. Then again I thought she would be put in a relationship with Phillip or Brady and that never seriously panned out.

Thank god.

I think nadia is one of the worst actress' on soaps, but she and Bryan have this chem together. and so her her and SC... but her and EM and JKJ just dont.

[MarkH]

It's very curious that dirt-poor Days that dumped half its vets suddenly has all this cash. I'll be interested, as you note, if there are some firings.

If only one of them would be Koslow...so she can come home. (Not that there's room on B&B right now).

DH, DH, TP, MBE, SN - all fired.
RM, DB, BB - gone.

Pay cuts from PR, KA, AS (the shows top three) and others.

= saving a lot of money.

Also, its somewhat knowen that a lot of these name stars taking other soap roles are not going for what they use to. I bet you anything CC is making a bit more than she did at GL, and thats it. Other than her, everyone else is pretty much a nobody/1 soaper/nobody big that demands money.

Also, the use of less sets, less crew, and i believe they only tape 4 days now like some other soaps helps a lot.

Nick Stabile. You little sexy imp.

He and Priscilla Garita on SuBe = opportunity wasted. I'm g;ad they got reunited momentarily on Passions, though.

thank you!

they were so much better than the people they temped for. lol.

Humm.. could Nick be Eric?

Damn, JP is soooo right. Garita ruled as Theresa and made her fun to watch.

At least Gary and Marnie cast on looks this time around instead of what they perceive to be "talent." Will looks like Michael Jackson and Mia looks like she just stepped out of the trailer park and they are bad actors to boot.

LMAO!

I fully disagree, but that was funny

Who the hell is BB? For the life of me, I can't think of any Days actor (aside from Brandon Beemer) with those initials, LoL.

[dc cubs]

^^ BB is Blake Berris who played Nick Fallon.
