Charles Shaughnessy Returns to Days of Our Lives
by Michael Logan March 17, 2010 12:59 PM EST
Shane comes back! Charles Shaughnessy is returning to Days of Our Lives for a multi-episode arc in the role that made him an ’80s sensation—suave ISA agent Shane Donovan. The British actor is best remembered by prime-timers as Fran Drescher’s boss and eventual hubby on The Nanny, and he later played Drescher’s jerky ex on her follow-up sitcom Living With Fran. Most recently, he had a terrific guest stint on Mad Men as sneaky Saint John Powell, director of the U.K. ad agency that bought out Sterling Cooper.
An NBC rep says Shaughnessy—who briefly returned to Days in 2002—will appear on the soap for 10 or so episodes, though that might expand. He starts taping the week of March 22 and begins airing in a couple of months. Look for plot details and an interview with Shaughnessy in an upcoming issue of TV Guide Magazine. -

Gordon Russell's Work on OLTL
Posted 21 Feb 2010
Since many of us ended up discussing Russell in another thread, I thought I'd start a thread for his work on OLTL, which seems to intrigue many of us here.
He never seems to get much credit for his groundbreaking work on OLTL, and though Agnes Nixon trained him for a bit before he took over OLTL, he had a distinctive writing style of his own. Much of what could have turned into a convoluted mess with a baby switch, and the adventures of a prostitute and her pimp turned into some of the most compelling character psychoanalysis that ever graced daytime.
A lot of us here love the clips we've seen from this era. Perhaps if he didn't die unexpectedly, and had other lengthy writing stints, he would be better remembered today and mentioned with many of the soap opera writing greats.
Anyway, discuss his work on OLTL here...
