CASTING UPDATES!

• As fans now know, Sarah Buxton (Annie Douglas) is no longer with the blog. “The character of Annie is great, and I think she will go down as one of the greatest daytime characters of all time. But there is no room for her on the blog at this time. We have a very exciting storyline coming up, and it will take the bare essentials of Salem and DAYS to make it great. Annie isn’t going to be a part of it, but she will be back! There is not a doubt in my mind. We have to reveal Alan’s real killer sometime!
• In a shocking turn of events, Joseph Mascolo has been bumped to recurring status. “There’s not much of a story for Stefano quite yet. But we need him on the cast because he has great influence over Kristen, Kate, and Megan. Mascolo is a great talent, and I don’t plan on wasting him. But I have to wait for the best time to bring Stefano on more permanently, and now is not that time. He’ll be used as often as he was when he was on contract, but the status change will be noted.”
• Greg Rikaart will first air as Andrew Donovan in January.
• Rupaul Charles Andre and Janice Dickinson will also appear that month.
• Bree Williamson has landed the role of Willow Espinoza, who will be different from the Willow on-screen on the real DAYS. She is slightly older, and she will help kick off an adventure story for the younger set. She will also first air in January.
