LOL! What can I say? I need to give the fans what they want to see! And new characters like Lance, Erika, and Liam are not it. hehehe.

I know. But maybe it's the way JER wrote them during this run. He did everything else so shittily, so he more than likely did that shittily. Haha. Also, I really can't tell this story without them.

More Fan Favs RETURN! Fan Favorites, Bill and Susan Seaforth-Hayes, will be returning to the roles of Doug and Julie Williams this November. They join Eileen Davidson, Thaao Penghlis, and Ari Zuker on the list of big returns for November Sweeps. "There are going to be quite a few climactic events in the lives of the Horton's that necessitate their returns. The stint isn't contract, but it's not temporary either. They are on recurring, and they'll be seen more and more."...says the headwriter. "With the recent return of Jeremy and the upcoming returns of Doug and Julie, the blog is trying to bring the show back to what DAYS should be about - family - the Horton's, in particular. They haven't played a big enough role in the blog as of yet, but that's going to be changing around here."

With Shawn, Georgia, and Cassie making returns in November and Tony, Nicole, and Kristen all coming back onto the canvas, we needed to make some room."

All of the changes that are being made are to increase reader's interest and the number of people who are tuning into the blog." "Readers can expect two of the exits to happen in October. Three to happen in November. And the biggest one of all to happen in mid-December. That's going to be big one! It's a vet, unfortunately, but it's a story begging to be told."
