    November is going to be a big month for Life in Salem!!!! Here are some previews on what you can expect to see!!!

    Austin/Carrie/Lucas/Sami/EJ/Nicole : This storyline will be coming to a close in November, Carrie and Austin will reunite have a big wedding and leave town off into the sunset probably towards the beginning of the Sweeps, they will probably return in the future but for now they will have to live elsewhere. As for Sami and Lucas.... expect them to be on the backburner for most of the Sweeps period, most of the focus will be elsewhere however, they will be bonding together more and expect to see some Lumi form, but of course there is EJ Wells, he will be in a triangle with them eventually, however that will not be what he will be doing during november,he will be bonding with Sami and becoming a buisness man, his true identity will be revealed later on, but just know that he will not be backburned that much during November. Then Nicole will be bonding with Eric, and her focus will mostly be on him.

    Steve/Kayla: This is going to be one of the main storylines in November, Steve and Kayla will discover that the answer to how his death was faked might be in Lianview. When the headwriter mentioned some Salemites would be going to Lianview, Steve, Kayla, their daughter Stephanie and Kimberly Brady would be the ones. It will be EXPLOSIVE when Steve finds out who did the dirty deed... and even more once he has his memory back. Everyone would probably expect Lawrence Alamain to be behind it.... well he does have a part in it, but is not the whole mastermind behind it!

    John/Marlena/Samantha: This will probably the most focused and most SHOCKING storyline of November, at the very beginning we will have he end to the Samantha/Marlena story. After that is all over John and Marlena would expect to be in the clear with their vow renewal ceremony coming up.... well it certainly is not! During the Sweeps Wayne Northrop will be returning for a very short stint as Alex North, "We are tying up all the loose ends with this story..... Alex and Marlena were not really married in my storyline, instead this was another Dimera trick, North should however be in and out by the end of November" the headwriter comments. Then, John gets a shocking revealation that will change half the people in Salem lives forever! As for Samantha.... don't expect her to leave just yet! There is already a another story for her!

    Shawn/Belle/Philip/Jan/Mimi/Rex/Cassie: This storyline is really going to take an unexpected turn November! It will be about the time Mimi exits!!! Claire's paternity will finally be revealed, making things really heat up with Shawn, Belle, Mimi and Philip. Philipp will become manulipitive and will do something HUGE after he finds out the truth!!! Then of course there is Rex and Cassie, Rex and Mimi will not end up together, but instead they will say a heartacheing goodbye, and of course Cassie will be thrilled, but not for long! Rex will oon get involved with a woman that will get him into loads of trouble, meanwhile Cassie will get her own brand new story! One you NEVER saw coming!!!! And last but not least, there is Jan, she may have pulled off a HUGE stunt, but it did not exactly get Shawn with her, she will be very pleased with what Philip does and what he does that is so huge will cause Jan to finally get a chance to bond with Shawn, she will comfort him over Mimi's betrayal, but will he really get involved with the woman who locked him in a cage, tried to kill his grandfather and his ex girlfreind?

    Abe/Lexie: This will be another one of the main focuses of November, Tek's body will have been found and everybody knows that it his him, therefore Lexie and Abe are the prime suspects in his murder. Thanks to Daddy Stefano, Abe will stand trial for the murder and Lexie will be in the clear... but when everything seems alright, an unexpected twist occurs! This twist will be what causes Lexie to finally become a true Dimera again, she will swear revenge on all of her enemies and no matter what the costs she will try to get Abe back!

    Bo/Hope: Bo and Hope will not be one of the main focuses of November sweeps, but they certainly will have alot of excitement in their story! Like always they will reunite, but, even though Patrick is dead and Billie has moved on from Bo, they will still have danger lurking over them!!!!!!

    Lilly/Max/Erin Jade: This storyline will not be front burner, but will be exciting!!! Lilly will be forming into an evil, sly, aand insane villian, she has a secret and will make sure it does not come out She will grow more and more in love with Max and do anything to keep him! However, Max at the same time has been growing close to Erin Jade, the new girl in town. Lilly will be angered by this, so she will begin classify Erin as an enemy during November Sweeps. This storyline will take a huge turn at the end of November Sweeps.

    Caroline/Victor/Nikki/Viki: This is going to be a BIG BIG story during the Sweeps. First of all Victor has gone back to his old ways, and is not playing nice with anyone! He has a big secret, and is obsessed with keeping it hidden. Meanwhile Caroline has realised she still has feelings for Victor but does not want to confront him with it. And then of course there is Nikki Smith, and Victoria Lord. Nikki and Victor had a past together... and that will be further delved into in November, and she sort of loves him, but he does not love her! He really has love for Viki! Victor also has a new assistant(Tari Signor) that will help him with his criminal acts... howeverm she is not who he thinks she is! Then finally Clint Buchanon finds Nikki and then the trouble will really begin! Who will win Victor's heart? Caroline or Nikki?

    Brady/Chloe: This couple will be on the back burner mostly, but that does not mean they will not have a story! Brady and Chloe will be spending time with their daughter... but when a catastarophy occurs it leaves them wondering if their marriage will survive! This storyline will also form into a SHOCKING triangle you could never imagine.

    The Mysterious Woman: This storyline will finally come to an end towards the beginning of November, she will make one last huge stunt and then finally be revealed!!! Fans will not believe who it is!!!!!

    Other: Tony Dimera, Greta Von Amburg, Jeremy Horton, Chelsea Benson and Eric Brady will all be making returns during the Sweeps, some mabye a little before. They will all have BIG storylines! Greta and Eric will dsicover that they still love each other, Chelsea and Jeremy will both find love, and Tony will be what he once was, the Tony of the 80's. He will reveal something that will change two Salemites lives forever!! And Billie, will be on the backburner for a while during November Sweeps, but that does not mean she won't have a story! Meanwhile Stefano will pop up here and there, but mostly will not be seen that much during Sweeps. And Kate's story will have just begun during November!

    Be sure to stay tuned to Life in Salem during November Sweeps!

    Roman/Marlena: "They'll continue to chase after Stefano. Roman seems to be losing his cool now days, he might not play by the rules so much anymore! Both of them want to bring Stefano, and Helena, down! But to get Stefano Roman will have to revisit a critical place in his past...can he take it?

    Hope/Bo/Megan/Gina/Billie/Steve/Kayla/Greta/Nicole: "The Gina/Britta story shall be wrapped up in November...but it shall set off a huge NEW story for Bo and Hope. This will be one of the biggest stories for them ever done! Meanwhile Billie will be beginning to find a rival in Megan. Steve will face off with Britta/Gina once and for all but beware because in Winter someone will throw a wrench in Steve and Kayla's marriage! Meanwhile, Nicole continues to rival Greta.

    Tony/Anna: "As revealed last week to kick off Sweeps, Tony has an alternate personality! This is the huge person who threw a wrench through Tony and Anna's plans...and also readers know TONY, not Andre, was the one who shot himself in Aremid! This story will slowly be explored."

    Alexis/Lucas/Sami/EJ: "The quadrangle continues and heats up. EJ and Sami will grow closer, and Lucas tries to get over Kate's death with help of sister Billie as Alexis remains in the shadows. But tragedy strikes one of these four at Sweeps end, caused by EJ's hunger for power."

    Helena/Stefano: "They are going to be front and center, of course The War continues. It has taken full course and will continue to as all of Salem is involved. Their relationship will be explored off/on and closure will be given. At the end of Sweeps however the finale of The War you will NOT want to miss...it will change LIS FOREVER!

    Heather Olsen returns to Days but not as Jan Spears! She returns as Jan's twin sister that had been away at boarding school for years Lilly Spears!

    "In Days Lilly Spears never appeared and as you can see Lindell loks alot like Olson so we decided to bring Olsen back as Jan's twin sister." And it looks as if Olsen will be staying for a veyr long time because we have some juicy storlyines. More will be explained about Lilly as time goes on." "We are very happy to have Olsen back and as I said earlier she is not leaving anytime soon and this is indeed a contract role." comments the writer

    OLTL Star Joins LIS!

    By daysfan,

    Bree Williamson is coming to Salem! No, not as Jessica Buchanon, but as someone new that will get involved with Lucas. This new person's name is Alexis Kafer. Alexis is not a perfect saint and resembles Williamson's character's alternate personality, Tess.

    "I am thrilled to have Bree here." the headwriter commented "She's a great addition to the cast and Alexis will not be too big, but she will be heavily involved with the Lucas/Sami/EJ triangle. Whenever I planned this all out, I immedaitely knew Bree was the one I wanted. I think she will be fantastic and already has so far."

    Bree will start airing on the next summary, and she is on recurring.

    OUT AND OUT!

    By daysfan,

    TWO LONG-TIME VETS OUT ON LIS!

    Coming as a shock, Peggy Mccay(Caroline Brady) and Bill Hayes(Doug Williams) have been fired from the LIS cast. Both still have many episodes that they are still in, but both characters due to the chandelier accident on Chez Rouge have gone into comas.

    "Likely, Peggy's exit is only temporary, but don't expect Caroline to wake up for quite a bit." the EP/Writer commented "We still have much story to tell with her, but with The War beginning there is currently no place for her. So we have to write her out for a little while, and it also helps to de-bloat the cast. Though I hate cutting all these vets, new people shall also be cut, and Caroline won't be gone forever. I have not decided how long Doug will be gone, but it could be for a very long long time. It will help kick off Julie's upcoming story, and also though he was only a guest/recurring character he has no place, where as later on Julie will."

    Both actors' last airdates have not been verified.

    In other news:

    Heather Olson(ex-Lilly Spears) last aired on Episode#136. Don't expect her to appear again.

    Annie Burgstede's(Willow Stark) last airdate is coming up very soon, expect it to only be a breif appearance.

    Jensen Ackles last aired as Eric Brady on Episode#139. The exit was very open ended, so a return is possible!

Episodes have been submitted for Drake Hogestyn, Louise Sorel, Suzanne Rogers, Heather Lindell, Farah Fath, John Aniston, James Reynolds, Andrea-Hall Gengler, Erika Slezak, and Mickey's Death.

    Jensen Ackles, recently returned Actor, O-U-T!

    It comes as a shock to many fans, that Jensen Ackles who recently returned to LIS, has been fired!!!!!!! But LIS says it is true.

    "I spoke to Jensen in August," the headwriter says "We sat down and I asked him if he could come back to the show. He said it depends because he recently got a gig on the TV show "The CW" and also he would not want to sign a contract for too long. I told him that I had an eight-month contract in mind, however I was un-sure if his story would be shorter than that and how long it would take me to get him back on LIS. He told me he would agree to those conditions and signed. That would mean since he signed in Mid-August, his contract would end in Mid-March. His story has been extremely sluggish and I have apologise for that, and I know also Eric has not really dealed with the fact John is Roman, his father. But that will be addressed in the coming weeks and was purposeful. Eric was never when I brought him back meant to be a character that lasted for over a year. If it were August 2006 right now I might not even asked him back because I regret trying the Greta/Eric/Nicole triangle again especially since it has been so backburned. But he was needed and crucial to the story I have planned out for Greta. It might have been able to have been set up without Eric but it made more sense with him here and readers will see what I mean when her new story happens."

    Also: The storylines that have been tweaked have been the Steve/Kayla story and the Forrest/Kate/Vivian story. Originally, Michael Sabatino was set to reprise his role as Lawerence Alamain and get involved in both of these stories but the headwriter thought it over and due to the budget and how the cast is so bloated it would be unnecssary so he has been cut before airing.

    Here is an updated list on what the Casting Bloodbath in LIS has hit:

    Brandon Beemer(Shawn Brady)
    Christopher Gerse(Will Roberts; character recast)
    Rachel Melvin(Chelsea Benson)
    Brandon Tyler(Jeremy Horton; character recast)
    Heather Lindell(Jan Spears; exit temporary but considered a cut because gone for over a month)
    Amanda Tepe(Colleen McHenry; never announced but was cut)
    Annie Burgstede(Willow Stark; planned for the role to be temporary and announced in November but LIS considered to ask her to stay but decided against it)
    Jensen Ackles(Eric Brady)
    Michael Sabatino(Lawerence Alamain; character never aired but was set to return but plans changed at the last minute)

    Stay tuned to see who the next person will be that gets cut on Life in Salem!

    Returns and Leaves

    By daysfan,

    There are two returns for Days and it might please the fans to see who is coming back....

    Andrea Hall Gengler returns to Days as her old character that was believed to be killed off... Samantha Evans! Samantha Evans was Marlena's evil twin that caused havoc for Marlena and her marraige to Don Craig until she and Marlena reconciled and started to rebuild their relationship but then she was killed off when the Salem Strangler belived her to be Marlena. However she is alive and will be returning to Salem and she is not gonna be as close to Marlena as she was when she left and she will also cause trouble for John and Marlena. This is a contract role and is long term.

    Arianne Zuker will be returning after her six month long absence as Nicole Walker! Nicole will be back and will cause trouble for some of our Salemites. This is a contract role and is long term.

    ALSO:

    Due to the cast becoming bigger and bigger by the second there had to be some leaves on Days, luckily there is only two for now but there are rumors more will be let go because of other returns and comings Days have planned but for now these are the only certain leaves...

    Rhasson Orange will be leaving the show very very soon as it was reported rcently that he was bumped down to recurring but there was a change f plans so he had to be let go.

    "Now that Abe knows about Lexie and Tek there is othing to do with Tek in the show so I decided that it was time that he be cut from Days." comments the writer

    VALERIE WILDMAN, MATT CEDENO, JULIANNE MORRIS, AND AMBYR CHILDERS HEAD TO AOTH...AND ML COOKS RETURNS TO LIS AS CO-EP/CO-HW!

    Some BIG announcements are here for AOTH and LIS! Matt Cedeno(Brandon Walker), Valerie Wildman(Faye Walker), and Julianne Morris(Greta Von Amberg) have all reprised their former "Days" roles on AOTH! LIS fans might remember Morris from the 2006-2007 era, when Greta returned and the Nicole/Eric/Greta triangle was re-ignited for a short time, but later left when Nicole and Jan forced her out of town. However Greta's returned and is out for blood, and has a nasty raccoon bite! "I won't reveal too much but...lets just say ML has some whacko plans for Greta." Tara Smith says. Cedeno and Wildman are Nicole's true family, and are playing a big role in the reveal that Nicole lied about being Tony and Marlena's child. "We've planned to bring them back for a very long time, ML finally got to it on LIS. I can't say they will have huge storylines on AOTH or anything but we've got stuff in store once they return to LIS."

    Also, AOTH has a newcomer! Ambyr Childers(ex-Colby, AMC) has joined the cast as teenage friend of Will: Destiny Stoke! "Destiny is a character ML himself created, all on his own, and I only helped a little with her creation. Its time for the new generation to be built up, because while LIS has had a twenties scene before we never had a teen scene." Childers, unlike the other three, is on contract.

    Also, ML Cooks, the sole EP and HW of AOTH, and former full Co-HW/Co-EP of LIS...will be returning to LIS after AOTH ends!!!!!! "I am so happy when he told me he wanted to return full time, it was such a joy because he brings so much to LIS and he really is a strong writer who knows what he's doing. And he really made me realize how much we gotta move forward. He and I don't want to be stuck in the past forever...we have to start moving forward and building up the younger characters, or just getting fresh blood in, no matter what age." Now, its not like we can't tell stories for the older characters because we'd NEVER do what people like Hogan Sheffer or Tom Langan did on Days during their tenures. Our vets will always have a story in place for them, and its also not like we are forbidding ourselves from ever bringing back another character from Days' past or ever re-telling a classic story. Believe me, we care about the vets and they WILL have story, but slowly we are building up future generations for the years to come on LIS." Tara Smith commented

    By daysfan,

    The new headwriter has recently told us that he will be recasting Shawn Douglas Brady but for the first time since he became the headwriter he will let the fans choose who will play Shawn.

    "Jason Cook played a great teenage Shawn but we need a more adult actor to play Shawn but I do not know who should portray the role so I am lettign the fans decide who should play him." the writer tells us

    Comments would be appreciated and in your comments tell me who you think should play Shawn.

    By daysfan,

    Reported a few months ago, the role of Shawn Douglas Brady would be recast. It has remained undecided for a while, so Jason Cook continued the role

    But now, the decision has been made! Brandon Beemer has been cast as Shawn.

    "We needed someone who had chemistry with Martha Madison, Farah Fath, and Heather Lindell. Also who was adult like and had an acting skill. Beemer is this someone, we all look forward to having him on the set." the headwriter told us

    Beemer will start airing immediately, as Cook has already exited.

    Shocking Announcement!

    By daysfan,

    After a month of quietness and no episodes of "Life in Salem" or "Affairs of the Hearts", a shocking announcement has been made as the backstage upheavel continues! However, Creator/EP/HW of AOTH and Co-EP/Co-HW of LIS, ML Cooks, wishes to tell the fans himself:

    "When I joined LIS last November , the series was in a state of panic, coming off the heels of another previous co Head writing stint by Jay Vanderburg. LIS seemed to have lost it’s identity some what. With the help of Series creator Tara Smith, we turned LIS around.From Hope Brady smoking crack, to Will, being 15 and h aving a child of his own to the romances of Abe and Maggie and Victor and Celeste to the introduction of Vivian’s sister, Valentine Heart.As LIS continues, Tara and I have had some varying ideals for the future of LIS. So in essence, it was mutually agreed, I would step down from my positions of Co head writer and Co executive Producer. Tara and I remain very dear friends as she has recently was announced the new Co EP and CO HW of my own series, S.T.E.A.M.I must say it has been a fun ride writing stories for the characters I loved for over 16 years and to have wrote them with a great friend was the icing on the cake.As AOTH comes to an end and the shows join back into one, LIS enters a new era of drama. LIS is on fire right now and no other Days blog out there right now can come close to what’s been written and what’s coming up. I leave AOTH and LIS in a great position to entertain and it does saddened me that I am leaving on such a creative high that LIS is at right now. But Tara is a gifted writer and she has everything under control.Thank you Tara for letting me tell some of the crazy stories I pitched to you and thank you for helping me learn and grow as a writer.And to the fans of LIS, I thank you for sticking by us and if like my writings, check out my own series, S.T.E.A.M.And this is my swan song. I leave here on good terms and who knows maybe I’ll be back one day."

    Yes, it is true, ML and Tara Smith have parted ways! ML's last episodes of LIS have already aired, and the last few episodes of the short term spinoff AOTH, penned by him, shall air soon enough! "It was such a joy working with ML for almost a year on LIS," Tara Smith said "But unfortunately a time comes for every beloved team to part ways. ML's work on LIS was so fantastic and will never be forgotten, and the mark he left on it will not fade for some time if ever. And, I hope the fans will continue to read, and also, ML and I will still be working together on his own soap "STEAM"."

    SHOCKING RETURN!!!!!!

    Shocking casting news has broke from Life in Salem!!!!!!!!! Apparently, someone who was thought not to return, has come back after all!!!!

    Who is this you say? Well it turns out that...........

    EILEEN DAVIDSON will be returning!!!!!!!!!!! Rumours have been going around, but everytime Life in Salem denied her return, hwoever days later she was fired from Young and the Restless, so Life in Salem jumped at the chance to get her back.

    She agreed, and signed a contract that would keep her around AT LEAST until summer of 2007.

    It has not been told which role she will be reprising, but the rumours are it willl be either Kristen or Susan.

    But, fur to the fact Kristen has been mentioned lately, chances are the scheming vixen will be returning to Salem.

    Viewers of the actual show Days of Our Lives last saw Kristen locked in a dungeon fter being given to the Sultan. She has never been heard from since.

    And Susan was last seen with her son Elvis Jr. and husband Edmund Crumb after they rode off into the sunset, also right before that they tricked Stefano into thinking Susan was Kristen so he would be at ease knowing his "daughter" is safe with the baby she has always wanted.

    Other characters played by Davidson were minor, and one of them was even killed which sparked the whole Killing Pool storyline and everyone in town thinks it was Kristen who died, when it was really another Banks family member Peneople Kent. The other two were Sister Mary Moira Banks and Thomas Banks, who left Salem after Susan. Rumours are none of those roles will be reprised.

    Davidson is expected to pop up at the end of December.

    Christie Clark, who left the show back in November with Austin Peck(ex-Austin), could be returning to LIS this Summer! Sources have said she is in talks with the show to return!

    "There is still plenty of story to tell with the character of Carrie," the headwriter says "I only cut Carrie and Austin the first time because I had no plans for them. Carrie fled town after it was revealed John was her father. Sometime, Carrie's going to have to face the truth sometime. And she definately needs to be here for "The War". She is a prominent Brady. We couldn't do this story without her."

    "I was suprised when I got the call," Christie laughed "I really expected that to be my last time in Salem. But I truly would love to return to the set. But I am unsure. I trust the headwriter, but I wouldn't want my return to go the way it did last time around."

    So, will she return? You'll just have to keep reading, because LIS might pull something out of the blue that's unexpected! But a question is also here: What about Austin?

    "I have yet to contact Austin Peck, but soon I will. He will probably be back for this story.....but he might not! However, if he doesn't, it won't mean Carrie and Austin are seperated! This time if/when Carrie and possibly Austin return, they will be together!" the headwriter says

    MICHELLE PATTERSON AKA SISTER PAT CROSSESOVER TO SALEM!

    Only weeks after the axing of longtime vet John Aniston(Victor Kiriakis), some happier news comes to LIS for once! Michelle "Sister" Patterson will guest star on Life in Salem for two episodes this week...Patterson is best known for her role on reality show "I Love New York", where she she pops in as the crazy mother to New York. However, Patterson also plays one of the main heroines on former Co-HW/Co-EP ML Cooks' SONOP soap S.T.E.A.M. Sister Pat is a very crazy nut on that show as well, constantly having crazy antics as she pressures people to praise the Lord and attacks nearly everyone she sees in the town, though she's also been at the center of some very serious storylines as well. Pat comes to Salem this week to help Celeste Perrault(Tanya Boyd) after the death of Victor...and a very surprising connection to Celeste will be revealed! And the scenes shall be written by Cooks himself.

    "I am very happy to have Sister Pat appearing on LIS...she's such a big character on S.T.E.A.M that I love, I've always wanted her to appear on Salem...and I love it even more that ML wrote these great scenes...Celeste needs help right now, and besides some friends and her daughter Lexie, she doesn't have much!" Tara Smith commented

    Pat isn't the first "STEAM" character to come from Pasadena to Salem, though. Suga, played by Missy Elliot, had a stint on the show in 2008, and she returned on recurring status in March 2009...she's been here ever since, and was the one to actually kill Victor! Pasadena's central transexual, Rufus(played by Alexis Arquette), also guest starred in April 2008, when she showed up to bring Suga back to Pasadena, and ended up bringing Hope along as well. Lisa Ray has also had a stint as lawyer Lisa Raye back in June, another star character from STEAM

    AND, in other breaking news, soon-to-be GL alumni Gina Tognoni is joining LIS...also expected to appear this week! Tognoni is going to be playing a recasted April Ramirez, a role formerly played by Lisa Howard from 1988 to 1991. April was a bgi character at the time, but isn't the most famous character in Days....however, she will play a significant role in the Robin/Laura/Mike/Alexis/Jeremy/Cassie story. "I have always seen some potential in April...mainly now because of her and Mike's mess of a relationship...if fans remember right, Robin was the indirect reason they broke up a couple times...that will definitely come in to play here!"

    Tognoni joins with a short-term contract...but that could be changed!

    Pasedena resident hits Salem!!!!

    In the most recent episode of "Life in Salem", a mysterious character "Suga" has showed up as the "Secret Storm" storyline begins and she befriends Hope, and she also seems to be in the possession of drugs! However this is no simple new character: Suga has been on another soap, that being Co-Executive Producer/Head Writer of LIS ML Cook's original soap opera: S.T.E.A.M. The character, played my Missy Elliot, is a drug-dealer and is a criminal. Back in Pasadena, she did some work for evil vixen Natalia by stabbing fellow character Dahila, and ever since has been on the run.

    "Suga plays a big role in Hope's storyline. She gave her crack, which is a huge turning point for Hope Williams Brady...in a bad way. However Suga plays more of a role than just giving Hope drugs, but I can't go into detail." teases Co-EP/HW Tara Smith

    LIS is known for its crossovers, but has never attempted one like THIS! Previously it has crossed over with other soaps "One Life to Live" and "General Hospital", when evil Port Charles villian Helena Cassadine and Llanview matriarch Victoria Lord showed up in Salem.

    ALSO, in other news:

    Shockingly, Philece Sampler is back in her role of Renee DiMera, a role she has not played since 1983!!! And Brent Weber joins the cast as Elvis Banks DiMera. "I know there are probably alot of questions, like how is Renee alive and how she and Elvis teamed up to kidnap Stefano and such, but these will be revealed in due time." Tara says
