All of their OG faces... whew.

Thanksssss

Yes! That's what I am hoping and praying for.

You have every right to say that, and I think that's apparent in that the frontrunners of Corday's infamous "plan to save Days" was bringing him & Hall back. If I recall, their returns were among the first when it was announced Dena Higley was OUT as head writer. It's going to depend on how it's penned. I am sure many said that of so many other cast members on other soaps.

The period of 2009–2011 without both him & Deidre Hall was such an empty void of an era.

I think it's because of how familiar the name and his person is within daytime. Even not watching Days of Our Lives growing up, I knew who Drake Hogestyn was. I think that's why it hits so many. Cancer is an absolute b!tch.

Delicious. Thanks so much, Joseph, for doing this for us!

A beautiful tribute and moving sentiment from a dedicated fan, Liz, on social media.

And so sweet in-person, too.

A true class, Mr. Logan! Miss his journalistic views on daytime so much, especially in times like now. What a beautiful tribute. Won't ever happen, unfortunately.

Same.

TCM tributes are always marvelous.

The other thing is: the writing for Casey Deidrick vs. Billy Flynn was drastically different, too. Plus, I never bought Deidrick as a DiMera, while Flynn I always have. It was an upgrade in casting if you ask me. A glaring recast was Justin Gaston vs. Robert Scott Wilson. Such a downgrade.

So SAG-AFTRA can acknowledge daytime... when it suits them. Nice that they did this, but strange they cited Extra.

Class. Pure class.

RIP Drake!!! May he be resting in eternal peace!

Demi Moore (ex-Jackie Templeton, General Hospital) briefly mentioned joining the soap.
