Apparently, Heather Lindell (Jan Spears) was written out on Episode#93 when Jan left Salem in pain over the an she has loved for years, Shawn Douglas Brady, died. However, Lindell's exit is only temporary. "We're going to try to turn the focus of this story to Belle and Philip," the headwriter said "We've put quite a bit of focus on it on Jan, so we want to take a break and focus on the others. She will be back, but will be gone for a bit. Some fans of LIS might know that Philip and Jan will be getting involved in a romantic story....that is planned out but won't be touched for a bit."
Lindell is expected to be back by mid/late Feburary Sweeps. And, also, in other casting news, Judi Evans (Bonnie Lockhart) last aired on Episode#93, meaning all the Lockharts are gone. But rumours say she could be back, and gossip has also spread that Connor Lockhart could come on soon.

Meanwhile, EJ tries to manipulate Lucas and Sami apart but it does not work and he says drastic measures will be taken. Helena and Sami happen to meet and Helena does not tell Sami who she is, but she threatens Sami to stay away from EJ or she, Lucas, and her son will all pay dearly. Sami is frightened and confused by Helena’s threats. Helena vows to make sure Sami and EJ never get together.
Helena and EJ continue to plot, but they do not come up with any plans good enough to take out Stefano. Helena leaves without telling EJ and she decides to confront Stefano. Stefano meanwhile hears about Colleen’s death, and is convinced Helena murdered her.
Jeremy takes Chelsea to Chicago, and gives her money to take a train, plane, or something and get as far away as Salem as she can.

You were so angry at me for spending time with Max. It would make so much sense for you to try to make me feel like I’m being stalked.” However, the person that was at Erin’s window the other day watches them from a window in the back……

Max asks why and Lilly tells Max that he and Erin constantly spend time together. She says it would be ok if it was a friend thing…but she says when she sees them it looks like more of a love relationship. Max tries to deny his feelings for Erin, but on the inside he can’t. Max tells Lilly they just have to try, and she says they have tried! She says they have been dating for several months now but recently it all has changed. Max thinks for a moment and tells Lilly he really likes her, Lilly says she really likes him too. Max finally confesses to Lilly he does have feelings for Erin. He says they are small and him and Lilly could still work out though…..Lilly says both of them know that is not true. Max tells them he guesses that means they are through then. Lilly tearfully acknowledges it. Max kisses her on the cheek and a tear pours down his eye, he says “Goodbye Lilly.” and leaves the flowers on the coffee table. He then walks out the door and after it is shut, Lilly breaks down and whispers “Goodbye Max.”
The next day comes to Salem. Erin visits Max at the Pub. Max is just about to leave and Erin asks him how he and Lilly are. He says with some sadness they broke up yesterday. Erin comforts Max and tells her she is sorry.
Max eventually asks her what she needs. She says she has been getting notes lately, like the one she got yesterday at the Spears Mansion. She tells Max she might actually have someone stalking her! She tells him she needs his help to get rid of this person! Max tells her he is busy and she can go to the police. Erin says she doesn’t want to go to the police just yet and begs Max for his help. He finally agrees and she thanks him.
Lucas is walking through Salem Place and bumps into a woman(Bree Williamson). She tells him to watch where he’s going and he tells her not to be so rude. She then tells him “It’s a hard world for gals like me. Don’t make it harder.” Lucas asks her what she means. The woman says to just buzz off. Lucas decides to just drop it and he leaves.
Sami is out and she visit’s the place where her apartment use to be before Alan burnt it down. She notices that they are still re-constructing and learns from one of the workers that it should be finished by late-summer. She hopes she can pay her stay at the Salem Inn for that long. As she is leaving she bumps into EJ. EJ tells her not to worry about that, and that if she gets in a tight spot he will cover it. Sami begins to thank EJ but she sees Helena afar off glaring at her. Sami tells EJ she has to go and runs off. Helena smiles and says to herself “It is all working…..”
Lexie talks with Stefano. She tells him originally she wanted to stay away from him, but now she needs his help. He asks what that would be, and Lexie tells him that would be destroying all her enemies. Stefano smiles and says “You and I have something in common, Alexandra. Do not worry darling, soon we will all get what we want.”
Nicole and Willow run into each other at Chez Rouge. And, as they work, they begin to clash!

She says it will be big so she wants everyone at their best tonight!

Caroline has tears of joy in her eyes and says it is a truly great day.
Willow arrives while on her break. She and Cassie meet after Rex introduces them to each other. John watches and is suspicious of Willow…..
EJ meets the woman that Lucas ran into, Alexis Kefer, at the Salem Inn. He asks her “Where are your bags, Miss Kefer?” Alexis replies to him “Oh cut it EJ. I don’t have any bags. I am taking this job because it will get me money ‘cause I’m broke.” EJ says they should just move on to business, and he says that she will try to distract Lucas Roberts away from his girlfreind, Samantha Brady. She asks why, and he says to not ask why just do it. She then says “Ok, if it’ll get me the money, fine. But show me a picture of the guy first.” EJ takes out a picture and Alexis is shocked! She shakes her head and says “No, not a chance. I am not gonna “ do it” or anything else with that guy.” Then Alexis turns around but EJ grabs her arm and pulls her back around, he says to her “If you want the money you will do it!” Alexis tells him to get his paws off her and after he lets go she says fine, and then she heads to her room. EJ then vows that Sami will soon be his.
Sam and Kristen continue to plot and scheme on how to get rid of Marlena. They finally decide on something and go to her penthouse. Kristen is still unsure about it but she thinks to herself she will do it for revenge. She goes to her position on Marlena’s balcony, while Sam barges in the front door of the penthouse.
Marlena is shocked to see Sam and gasps, she asks “What are you doing here?! I had no idea-” and then she stops, she backs away and says “I know what you are gonna do. Stay back Sam!” Then Sam responds “I’m not here to kill you Marlena. I wanna talk.” Marlena asks about what, and Sam says “Your husband.”
Marlena asks “What about John?” and Sam says “About what happened to Roman when he was being held captive by Stefano after falling off the cliff.” Marlena asks what she means and how she knows Stefano’s name, then Sam says “I’ll tell you that later. And, while he was gone, you didn’t know what happened to him did you? If he fell for another woman, or-” but Marlena cuts her off, she says “John would never fall for another woman, and he was being held captive after all. What are you getting at?”
Sam then replies “What I am getting at is that you think you’re the only one who’s shared a bed with your husband?”
Marlena gasps and she yells “You slept with my husband! You little-” she yells but this time Sam cuts her off, Sam says “Oh don’t start with the insults sis. We already had a child!” and after that, Marlena attacks Sam and begins to strangle her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Steve faces off with the thugs and nearly gets killed several times. He finds a gun and uses it on several of the thugs. After taking care of several he makes a run for the plane as shots are fired at him. However, once he gets out on the strip after dodging many shots, he sees the plane is about to take off and it is already running down the strip. Kayla cannot convince the pilot to stop so she runs to the stairs that are about to close and tells Steve to jump in. Steve catches up to the plane and jumps in, barely avoiding another gun shot! Kayla in tears kisses Steve, and the plane takes off towards Salem, leaving Llanview in shambles.
Marlena and John arrive at the police station and Marlena informs Faux Roman and Abe that Sam escaped from her Sanitarium recently and could be a suspect in Shawn’s murder! Abe asks Marlena what motive Sam would have, and Marlena says to hurt Belle or Roman, because they are Marlena’s family.
Abe and Faux Roman add Sam to the possible suspect list. John asks if he can help them investigate Shawn’s murder, and Abe tells him he will accept whatever help he can get. Faux Roman agrees, and Marlena tells John she has to go, but before she does she begs him to be safe. He says he will and she leaves. Then an officer comes in saying after investigating they have a new break in the Shawn Douglas murder case!
All three ask what it is, and the officer informs them that the car that exploded on New Years Eve, was not his car! Max suddenly comes in and says it’s true. He tells Abe, Faux Roman, and John that Shawn had turned his car into the garage a few days before he died to be fixed. John and Faux Roman asks Max if he knows what kind of car Shawn had after, and Max says he doesn’t know. Faux Roman, Abe, and John wonder if Shawn was not the intended murder victim.
Sam and Kristen arrive back in Salem. Kristen says she wants to see her father, but Sam refuses to take her to him saying they don’t need his help! Kristen asks Sam why she is so stubborn about it and Sam refuses to answer. She tells Kristen it is time to take care of Marlena once and for all! Kristen agrees but at the same time wonders if she should ruin her life all over again just for Marlena.
Rex and Willow go out at Chez Rouge. Willow had just gotten off duty and Rex asks if she likes her new job, Willow says it’s ok but nothing special. She and Rex spend a nice, romantic evening together. Once done, as Rex heads out to his car to get it ready Willow is about to follow but runs into Nicholas. Nicholas asks Willow what she would be doing at a fancy restaruant like Chez Rouge, but she tells him it’s none of his business and quickly runs out. Nicholas is convinced Willow is hiding something.
Helena barges into the DiMera mansion. The guards try to stop her but she just walks right past, not afraid. She walks into Stefano’s office and he is shocked to see her! He tells her to get out but she says not until they discuss a very important matter. Stefano asks Helena what that might be, and she says why he is trying to kill her. Stefano tells Helena she knows exactly why, and that is because he will not let her interfere with his plans! Helena tells Stefano she is in Salem to stay, and that whether he likes it or not soon his throne will not be his anymore. Stefano asks Helena what she means but she says in all due time he will find out. Helena threatens Stefano telling him that if she interfere’s with her plans his death will only come sooner than originally planned. Stefano tells Helena he is not afraid to fight her, and she says she is not afraid to battle with him. Stefano says it seems that a war has begun then.
A new day comes in Salem. Margaret sneaks into Belle’s loft and finds her purse, then she plants several explosives inside. She quickly leaves after hearing Belle awakening. Rex comes over and tells Belle he thought he saw someone in here. Belle panics because she thinks it could have been Philip or one of Victor’s men trying to take Claire. Rex says he might have been wrong, but he thought he saw someone climbing through the window on the fire escape and it looked like a woman. Belle begins to worry for Claire’s safety. She asks Rex what the woman looked like, and he said he didn’t see much but it looked like she had long, curly hair and that is all he saw besides regular everyday clothes. Then he remembers she did also have a purple coat on. Belle remembers at last Thanksgiving Margaret, Victor’s assistant at Titan, had a purple coat and that type of hair. She thanks Rex and he leaves. She wonders if Victor sent Margaret!
Forrest tells Vivian at the Alamain Mansion to meet him at Alamain later this morning. He says there is a new business partner he acquired that she might want to meet. Vivian is confused, and asks him why he would even let her have anything to do with Alamain. Forrest just smiles and leaves. Vivian says that Forrest is up this morning.

After a year of silence inside LIS studios, news has finally broken that 'Life in Salem' will be making it's return to mySON TV at long last; Co-EP/Co-HW ML Cooks broke the news last week. Now, it's time to get an indepth look at what is going on at LIS. Where has it been? What's been going on, what will go on? When is it coming back? Any changes? A lot of questions must be on reader's minds; they probably thought it for dead, like many other past SON blogs. Well, 'Life' doesn't die that quickly; readers will have a lot more LIS coming their way. It is back and ready to roll.
However, before LIS can return, explanation is needed. On the past, present, and future.
"Readers of LIS may remember that in Fall of 09, ML Cooks made a return to Life in Salem and took the main pen, while I took the main control of his own, original soap "S.T.E.A.M". That fall was a big time for those shows, but suddenly, both began to stop posting episodes. Why? Well, a variety of reasons," explains LIS creator, EP, and HW, Tara Smith. "I fell ill that fall; I had a lot of health problems with a rupptured appendix that had to be taken care of. So I fell off the map first; ML tried to keep the ships afloat, but his own real life began to get in the way. Our lives prevented us from penning these soaps, and S.T.E.A.M's last episode aired in November of 09; LIS' last aired on New Years Eve of 09. Another problem was that the blogs on SON were shut down for months. The most recent episode of LIS had to be posted in the mySON TV board, and that was in Febuary of last year. So things have been quiet because all of this just crashed together and the blogs fell to the wayside."
However, not any more; S.T.E.A.M is already hitting the SONOP airwaves once again, and LIS' return is fast approaching. But is anything going to be different about LIS?
"LIS will be very different," answers Smith. "When LIS went on its long hiatus, it was already in a transition, if readers remember. However, it's about to get real different; it's almost going to be a new show. It will be great, though; ML has cooked(no pun intended) up some big plots. They are the likes of which Salem has never seen before. Changes can be scary for any show, and sometimes, they aren't for the best. LIS needed them, though; I was losing control of it when I was on my own, and ML came in and made some big decisions. He's majorly overhauled the show; there weren't that many changes when he came on the first time. Now, it's going to be insane. A lot of the cast has been trimmed. Current stories are in the process of ending, and new ones will begin."
Smith was not hesitant to give the details of the changes 'Life in Salem' was making, either.
"It's not just a change in story. The format is changing up, as well, as readers may have seen during the Fall of 09; LIS used to be a daily soap. Well, those days are long gone. It's now going to be airing only twice a week," Tara explained. Does that mean less LIS? Maybe not. "It may not air as many times, but the episodes are different, too; most of my episodes for LIS used to be written in a more prose style. They were very simple and to the point; long-time LIS readers also know how ML writes, in a more script form. Well, once again, I have adopted that form. That will be the way this show will be presented from here on out, but it's a good thing; the prose was always good for LIS, but in these scripts, you know exactly what the characters are saying. This gives you a chance to dig deep into these scenes and see the emotional aspect of it, while keeping the action that you already had in the prose. Basically, these episodes will pack much more of a punch than previous ones did; if you read ML's older script eps of LIS or S.T.E.A.M, or even the ones that I would write in script, you'll have an idea as to what I mean."
Overall, this is a lot of info for readers to take in; changes are running every where on LIS.
"Right now, we have about ten episodes or so already written; that's well over a month of story, and we keep going. We really want to stay ahead, because in the past, LIS has found itself a little chaotic because episodes were written so shortly before they should've been posted to the public. We are going to keep writing and try to keep ourselves in check; right now, most of the episodes are being written by me, with some scenes from ML thrown in. In due time, we will see episodes from ML return, but he is also heading up S.T.E.A.M. However, ML has written most of the outlines; right now, we are very far ahead in that area. We have outlines written almost all the way up to 500; that's a lot. I can honestly tell you that Life in Salem has never been that ahead before; it is a good feeling to know so clearly where we are going with story," the exec continued. "So LIS has not just changed on a story and cast level; the production of the blog is different, too. Far different, but it's for the better."
However, while this sounds great for the blog, readers are more likely concerned with story; the inner workings of "Life in Salem" can be left to those in charge. However, what will the readers see?
"ML has been working extremely hard over the past few months on the storylines that will soon be heading the readers' way; like I said, LIS was in a transition period when it stopped, and so when it returns, it obviously still will be. The next few months of LIS will really be filled with ending current stories, and starting new ones. We have a lot of exits coming; LIS will have a smaller cast than ever before. As certain stories end, characters will be phased out, but the door is always open for returns down the road. Right now, though, it's not happening; however, there will be a few returns. A few new characters. These people will be slowly eased in and merged with our current cast. They will interact with a lot of people currently on LIS, and will slowly build up to their own stories, which will be massive. Life in Salem is headed for more character-driven territory; a lot of LIS has been filled with camp and action. That is changing, somewhat; we will be digging deep into the characters' hearts and emotions. Their feelings. There will be a lot of romance, a lot of emotional material. As time goes on, mystery will start to play in to the equation. But what else could LIS be about? Maybe it will have some different stories, maybe a few different characters, but at it's core, it remains the same: Love, mystery, and adventure. Diversity is being increased; the Hortons are going to take the front stage. Long-time couples, heroes, and villians will find themselves in a tail spin. These changes may seem scary, but LIS is going to be hitting the big 500 episode mark within fifty episodes. In a few months, it will have it's five year anniversery; I think it needs some fresh air."
Now, what are these big changes? What in the world is going to happen to this blog? Well, while sources refused to get a play by play of every single story, arrival, and exit coming up on Life in Salem, the list of people exiting, and arriving, has been released. That has only happened once before in LIS history, and this one is a much bigger list. Without any further adieu, the characters/actors departing from the soap are:
Jensen Ackles(Eric Brady)
Kimberlin Brown(Megan Hathaway DiMera)
Daphne Bloomner(Eugenia Willens)
Matt Cedeno(Brandon Walker)
Robin Christopher(Dr. Robin Jacobs)
Christie Clarke(Carrie Brady)
Bryan Dattilo(Lucas Roberts)
Farah Fath(Mimi Lockhart)
Heather Lindell(Jan Spears Roberts)
Julianne Morris(Greta Von Amberg)
Brandy Norwood(Dr. Phyliss Stansville)
Thaao Penghlis(Andre DiMera)
Louise Sorel(Vivian Alamain Kiriakis)
Gina Tognoni(April Ramirez)
Greg Vaughan(Detective Chris Reddins)
Valerie Wildman(Faye Walker)
Bree Williamson(Alexis Kefer)
Eric Winter(Rex Brady)
Also, dropped to recurring is Tanya Boyd(Celeste Perrault), who will remain on the LIS cast, but in a lesser capacity.
"There are some big names on that LIS; big names. Louise Sorel, Christie Clarke...it sounds insane. Some of those exits had already been announced, but hadn't really happened yet, so they were re-stated here. That is a LOT to take in; I'm sure that anyone who reads this is going to wonder how the cast can survive this. Some of these people are keys to so many stories! Well, I can't reveal how they exit; you just have to read to see it all come together. Some won't be gone for a while, and others will be out within a few weeks. With a lot of these exits, the door is always open for a return down the road, so don't count them all out for good," Tara stated.
Now, to counteract the list of massive cuts, "Life in Salem" also released a list of returns/additions to the cast, with some equally shocking names on the list:
Drake Hogestyn(John Black)
Michael B. Jordan(Reggie Carver)
Kristoff St. John(Jonah Carver)
Jerry verDorn(Bill Horton)
Walt Willey(Franklin Stokes)
"Obviously, that list is not nearly as large, but the list has some big names on it," remarked Tara. "John Black is making his way back to LIS, as is another legendary character, Bill Horton, with the face of soap vet Jerry verDorn! Jerry is a fantastic actor, and unfortunately, all of the other actors who played Bill have left this Earth. ML and I both feel confident that Jerry playing Bill is a great choice, and Bill is going to play a huge role on LIS; so many family and friends are already on the cast. This is the perfect time for him to show up and take his place as the Horton patriarch; we've also have Jonah Carver, another character from the past, returning; he is bringing along a son, Reggie. He is going to increase diversity, as well as help the Carver family grow; expect the Carvers to take a center stage on LIS. Jonah is going to have a huge story that pulls a lot of our beloved characters into madness, and Reggie is going to make a great addition to LIS' very small teen scene. Franklin, played by yet another soap vet, AMC's very own Walt Willey, obviously shares last names with Destiny; we'll see what their connection is, but he's also going to mix it up with a lot of our Salemites over time. All of this won't be right off the bat; it will be slow. Every single one of these characters has to be slowly integrated onto the canvas. It will take time, but Life in Salem is coming back, and it's coming back with a bang. Expect to see the first episode of LIS' return, 451, THIS Monday. There's going to be a lot going on, but stay tuned! It's good to be back!"

THREE CRITICAL ACTORS EXIT LIS....BUT FOR HOW LONG?!
A very stunning and shocking announcement has just been released after the airing of "Episode#323: Leaving Salem": Alison Sweeney(Sami Brady), Christie Clarke(Carrie Brady), and Matt Cedeno(Brandon Walker) have been axed...temporarily! Their characters all left Salem on March 18th when they decided to take off to find any evidence that Stan(Dan Wells) really killed Marlena, but vowed to be back!
"I don't know if axing would be the right word...its not like Joseph Mascolo, who has been all out cut. Its like a belated maternity leave for Ali and just a vacation for Christie and Matt....believe me, all these characters have places on LIS, but with such a big cast and the fact that it'd be difficult to find any evidence on Stan in Salem, it was decided that they'd be sent off for awhile...I can say they'll be off for a month, more or less. They will be interwoven back into the canvas in a shocking way." Tara Smith told fans
However, yet another actor has returned to LIS: Missy Elliot(Suga) who had a brief time in Salem last year as the drug dealing attempted murderor when she befriended Hope Brady(Kristian Alfonso) has returned...this time on a more permanant basis! Fanfic fans mainly know Elliot/Suga from the SONOP soap "STEAM", where she's been a character who's pulled off some pretty big stunts, such as stabbing core character Dahlia Salem for vixen Natalia, or shooting Natalia's own baby: Mark Jr. "I am not sure if the continunity will be alright between the two shows...she may not be done there, at least not yet," Tara Smith said "However, she will play a big role in some things on LIS...and a few things with Suga may not be like they were when she was with Pasadena!"
Be sure to tune into LIS and STEAM.

Life in Salem is happy to finally break it's silence on a high-profile story and announce that Annette Bening, Andy Garcia, and Chazz Palminteri are joining the cast as younger versions of Helena Cassadine, Stefano DiMera, and Mikkos Cassadine! They will be on recurring but will have a large role in The War.
"Annette plays a younger Helena in the seventies, while Andy plays a younger Stefano in the seventies and Chazz plays a younger Mikkos in the seventies," EP/HW Daysfan/Tara explains "Stefano and Mikkos have a hidden connection, this will be explored. And of course the relationship between Helena and Stefano must be explored, mostly through flashbacks. You could say it's slightly like Santo and Colleen, just none of the couples will be sitting around reading letters[laughs]. And it won't be quite so much of a romance story, but again Helena and Stefano will be similar."
All three are on recurring but will get some airtime. While the airtime may be small they still again have large roles but "won't conquer the whole story. The main focus will be on the now, not the past."

TWO CHARACTERS EXIT LIS AS ONE FAMILY IS PHASED OUT!
Coming in immediately after "Episode#291: A Deadly Fall"....two characters and one actress have been cut from the LIS cast! Constance Towers(Helena Cassadine), who has played the top villianess from 2006-2009, and Stefan Cassadine(played by Stephen Nichols from 2008-2009) have both exited! Nichols shall remain on as his main character Steve Johnson, but his time playing dual roles has ended. The two characters exited when, in a showdown with Steve and Kayla after Steve escaped Helena's prison, they both lost their lives. With these two characters gone, the Cassadine family has been officially phased out of LIS.
"I simply thought it was time....there were more plans for the Stefan impersonating Steve storyline, but I felt it was a failure and wasn't working, so after playing it out a bit I decided to end it. With how LIS is now, the Cassadines don't really have a place here before...they were once a big family on the show, since we've had Helena, EJ, Nikolas, and Stefan all here(and Mikkos in a few old flashbacks), but they're played out and its time for the GH crossover to end. I enjoyed having them here on the show, though, and I wish Constance all the best in the future." Tara Smith told reporters
Both character's last airdate was on Episode#291.

ELEVEN YEAR VETERAN AND GH CROSS-OVER CHARACTER OUT!
As November Sweeps kicks off on "Life in Salem", more cuts are made to the cast. Lauren Koslow(Kate Roberts) and Tyler Christopher(Nikolas Cassadine) have found themselves casualties of "The War", when both characters were killed off this past week. "Kate was becoming useless, as her storylines were slowly decaying. She had an alliance with Helena which was what led up to her death," Co-EP/HW Daysfan stated "And it also revealed Tony had an alternate personality, which gives a whole new twist to "The War". And her death also caused Nikolas's death. I give Jay credit for bringing Nikolas on and he also was the one who pitched the idea of killing Nikolas off and he handled it quite well, so this means the Cassadine side of The War is taking some big casualties. What's next? You have to tune in!"
However, also LIS has had a huge return this past week....
Charles Shaughnessy(Shane Donovan), who played the ISA agent on the real Days for eight years back in the eighties and early nineties and breifly again in 2002, comes to LIS! Shane has taken a role in "The War" as he leads the ISA against Stefano, Helena, and EJ. "I always knew Shane would return someday when I brought Kim back," Co-EP/HW Daysfan said "And the buildup was there when Lexie decided to go for help against Stefano once she turned on him. She went to him and Shane has obviously made his move when he stormed the DiMera Palace."
Shaugnessy is not expected to have a long run, most likely at least all the way through November Sweeps. But will he and Kim meet again? Time will tell.
In other LIS casting news:
Erika Slezak(ex-Victoria Lord Davidson) has been fired from LIS due to a huge cast. "She will most likely turn up again someday, but for now she had to go. And this also is building up to a brand new story for Victor."
Jerry Ver Dorn(ex-Clint Buchanon) has also exited. He was fired along with Slezak.

A few days ago, Life in Salem announced they would be bringing two men in for contract roles, well, fans have helped, and the producers have finally decided who the first man that they mentioned will be.
Dan Gauthier will be joining the cast as a rich tyrant, Forrest Alamain! Yes, fans are probably very confused as to what is going on, because John Black is supposedly Forrest. Well, John may be related to the Alamain's through Daphne, but he is practically two people in the Alamain family, he is Forrest, who is Lawerence's brother, and Daphne is the sister in law of Leopold, there fore John is in a way related to them in two ways. Life in Salem is going o fix this by bringing the REAL Forrest Back, and he has a great storyline ahead of him!!!
Gauthier is on contract.
And, there are some other casting tidbits available:
Comings:
Wayne Northrop (Alex North)- The actor will return on a recurring basis sometime in early November.
Cheryl Ann Wilson (Megan Hathaway)- The actress returned earlier in October. She is on contract, unknownb if it is long term or not.
Thaao Penghlis (Tony DiMera)- He will return sometime in November, technically Penghlis is already back in the form of Andre, but is main character Tony will return very soon.
John Clarke (Mickey Horton)- He will return at an unknown time for a short stint, expect a big shocker when he does!
Patsy Pease (Kimberly Brady)- She has returned earlier this month on recurring for now.
Julianne Morris (Greta Von Amburg)- She returned just days earlier on contract status.
Jensen Ackles (Eric Brady)- Expect the popular actor to return sometime in November, probably early.
Rachel Melvin (Chelsea Benson)- The popular actress is returning in mid November and will have a shocking new storyline!!!!
Shayna Rose (Stephanie Johnson)- This newcomer will pop up around November.
Goings:
Matthew Ashford (Jack Deveraux)- He and his co star Melissa Reevs (Jennifer) exited on Episode 35, they could be back at anytime though.
Melissa Reeves (Jennifer Horton Deveraux)- SHe exited along with co star Matthew Asford(Jack) just a day earlier, expect both of them to be back though!
Billy Warlock (Frankie Brady)- He will exit right at the end of November.
Frank Parker (Shawn Brady)- He exited just a few days ago when his on screen character was killed off.
Farah Fath (Mimi Lockhart)- She will exit sometime in Late December in a way no one suspected!
Judi Evans (Bonnie Lockhart)-She will exit early in 2007, she is never expected to return, but you never know with Life in Salem!

LIS is still wondering who to cast as Will Roberts. They have considered alot of actors but have thrown them all out. Will must be cast very very soon due to storyline plans.
Again, they want a mid-late teen or possible even early twenties actor to play Will. No older or no younger.
So, fans, please help LIS with this! They have hunted and hunted but cannot find an actor suitable for the role!
Other Casting News: Despite rumours, Annie Burgstede is out on LIS. Could she return? Unknown, but probably not true. Also, LIS is bringing Andy and Jeanie Donovan onto the show! They have already decided on actors, but the actors have not been announced yet. Also, expect Heather Lindell to make her return next week.
