    "Passions" Star Joins "DAYS!"








    In an exciting turn of events, Kim Johnston Ulrich will be bringing her "Passions" character, Ivy Winthrop, to King Reilly's Days Of Our Lives this spring! The former Mrs. Crane will be sweeping through Salem and will be shaking up some storylines. The headwriter says..."I've been watching 'Passions' since day one and am a huge fan of Ivy and her portrayer. All of this really started when I began to conceive an idea of having a character come on who is tied to a few of our characters' shady pasts....since many of our characters right now have big secrets. The type of character I wanted was someone like Ivy...sophisticated, likable, but deliciously bad, and actress who can bring depth to the role and make even a short stint sweet. And there have been talks of doing an NBC soap crossover for a while now, and it all finally came together perfectly. [DAYS and PSNS] just thought 'Why not! Let's give it a shot!' This instance will work because you won't have to be a Passions viewer to understand her role on DAYS. It's really just going to be a nice treat for those who watch both shows."

    Winthrop is currently slated to do a six week stint beginning Friday, April 14 (which is also pegged to be the day Tony's murderess is revealed.) "She's going to be in Salem from mid-April through May Sweeps. Ivy is a complex character because she is a very rootable character but can also be a cold-hearted bitch, as well. We have seen her be a villainess in the past ,and recently, in order to protect her son, Fox. Unfortunately for Salemites, she is going to be that bitchy villainess during her time there. She's going to be interacting with alot of the cast. She's going to be a sounding board to some and just a nice, loving stranger to some. But she will most heavily be interacting with Kate, Max, and Celeste. Each of them have really big secrets. Ivy is going to shed some light on all three of them. It's going to be neat to show how Ivy knows each of these three. We've stayed true to their pasts and her pasts yet we've showed how she has intertwined with each of them. She's going to have a huge bone to pick with one of them. She's going to have a soft spot for one. But all three will regret the day Ivy came to town."

    It's Curtains For Someone in Salem!

    DON'T MISS FRIDAY, MARCH 31st:

    It's the end of the line for someone in Salem as a core family member currently in a front-burner storyline will be written off in a shocking way.

    "Somewhere along the way, the writing for this character went terribly south. So, it really is a win-win situation. The twist is going to propel the storyline in an entirely new direction, and the fans will be getting what they want since this character isn't exactly a fan favorite right now. But there is nothing but respect and admiration for the actor or actress who plays the character."...says a source in the writing department. "It's definitely going to be a big shock to the audience. I don't think they'll predict this. When it's done, viewers might say they saw it coming, but they way it plays out...well, it should be a big shock when it happens."


    WHODUNIT!?!?!

    DON'T MISS FRIDAY, APRIL 14th:

    Tony's Murderess is finally revealed to the audience!

    "It's going to be very exciting. Abe, Jack, and Roman are going to set a trap for the killer to draw her out. We've been saying it all along, but the killer is one of the suspects that we've laid out for viewers from the beginning."...says the source. "YES, Tony really is dead! YES, it is either Abby, Bonnie, or Kate! And YES, the killer will pay for her crimes come May Sweeps when all is revealed. I don't think the fans will positively know who it is until the last five seconds of the episode that Friday. Up until that point, things really could go any way. Each suspect will genuinely have a 1/3 chance of being the killer. DAYS is really not taking the easy way out of this. All three characters are in the middle of hot front-burner storylines. We're going to lose a fascinating and a great character, and an even more phenomenal actress in May when all of this goes down!"

    PREGNANT PAUSE!

    DON'T MISS FRIDAY, MARCH 17:

    Baby for one Salem Lady!

    "Now, this story is really going to be interesting because it involves characters that have a deep and rich history. And this will only compound it. Not to mention, there is something else very big going on in their lives. And it's going to put the momma-to-be in close proximity with the father. She will try and keep this pregnancy a secret, and it's going to grow more and more difficult. It's going to be a normal pregnancy storyline. No paternity issues, no miscarriages, no delicate pregnancy, no scheming to get pregnant to land a man. And this is a couple that fans really want to see have a child. So, it's an old-fashioned pregnancy storyline. We haven't told one of those in years. Now, there will be a twist at the end of the story, but that is months off."

    - Kate and Bonnie run into each other at the police station where Abe has gathered them to interrogate each of them on Tony's murder. They discuss how they teamed up to keep Shawn and Belle from finding out about Claire's paternity. They each say their child hates them now and isn't talking to them.
    - Shawn and Phillip both rush to Belle's side after she faints. They speculate as to why she fainted as Jan stands with the baby in her arms.
    - Tek and Lexie run into each other at Salem Place. She tells him to stay away from her. She says that she'll never forgive him for sleeping with her mother. Tek says it was a mistake and that he was just drunk and it was a mistake. Lexie doesn't care. She says that she thought his feelings for her were real. Tek declares that they were. He grabs Lexie, pulls her into an alleyway of Salem Place, and kisses her.
    - Carrie continues to try and get Austin to listen to her. She says if he doesn't give her one chance, then she's through trying. He tells her to get out of his life. Sami is still shocked that Nicole vouched for her and said Carrie was responsible for blackmailing her into leaving town.
    - Mickey tells Maggie how disappointed he is in her.
    - Unfortunately for Lexie, someone is watching her and Tek kiss in the alley.
    - Abe interrogates Kate, and her mysteriousness and ambiguity in answering questions makes him even more suspicous of her. Kate finally reveals that she has no alibi.
    - Belle awakens and is shocked when they ask her why she fainted. She tells them that she fainted because Jan claims to have Shawn's baby! Phillip and Shawn are shocked since neither one of them really added up what was going on.
    - Austin tells Sami that Nicole is petrified of Salem and Carrie. He says he tried in vain to get her to return with him, but she wouldn't. Austin tells Sami that Nicole will most likely never return to Salem and that Nicole wouldn't tell him what Carrie had on her. They're interupted by a call from Will's favorite teacher. The teacher tells Sami that she needs to come in for a conference.
    - Maggie cannot believe what she's done. She concludes that she must have started drinking and then blacked it all out. She blames the incident at the Penthouse Grill when she accidentally took a sip of vodka, thinking it was her water. She begs Mickey for his forgiveness and his support, saying she can beat this addiction once again.
    - Bonnie uses humor to evade Abe's questions. But once Abe counters her dodginess, she also confesses that she has no alibi.
    - Shawn says this can't be. He says that he and Jan were safe every time. Jan reveals that the baby is indeed his. She looks to the doctor again to provide DNA tests that compare the baby's DNA to Shawn's. Shawn is floored. Jan hands him the baby and introduces him as Trey...otherwise known as Shawn Brady III.
    - Someone takes a picture of Lexie and Tek kissing on his/her camera phone. The person turns....it's CASSIE!
    - Sami and Lucas meet with Will's teacher who tells them both that she is concerned about Will because he has recently fallen into a very bad crowd. She says the crowd is heavily involved in drinking and marijuana and there are even rumors around the school and among the faculty about sexual activity among the students he is socializing with. Sami and Lucas are shocked!
    - Mickey tells Maggie that he feels betrayed. He compares her relationship with alcohol to her being unfaithful, since their love wasn't enough to keep her from straying.
    - Abe is sure that either Kate or Bonnie has murdered Tony and begins to remove Abby as a suspect in his mind. He wonders if Kate's only motive to kill Tony was the fact that he killed Georgia/Chelsea in the blast. Meanwhile, Kate recalls standing over Tony's bed and making a reference to the infamous kippers that Stefano left her in his will four years ago when he "died."
    - Mickey is devastated, but he tells Maggie that he must ask her for a separation.
    - Sami and Lucas find Will outside of the school, smoking cigarettes. Sami embarrasses Will in front of his friends by putting the cigarette out, screaming at him, grabbing him, and pulling him away from them and into Lucas' car. Once they get home, they search Will's room and are even further shocked to find alcohol and marijuana.
    - Jan explains that she was pregnant at the time Mimi put her in her coma and that she gave birth while she was in a coma, so her waking up and being a mother was just as much a shock to her when the doctors told her the news, as it is to him right now. Jan tells Shawn that she truly is a good person and that he saw that in her all of those years ago. She blames all of evilness on the brain tumor and asks Shawn to give her another chance to prove herself as a good person. The doctor vouches for all of this. He says that he used to be good friends with Dr. Tom Horton, and he'd never lie to Shawn about this. A tear rolls down Shawn's cheek as he bonds with his son, Trey.

    RUMOR MILL:

    - Rumor has it that the show has taken an enormously risky move and given many vets and fan favorites simultaneous time off in order to feature some other stories more prominently. It looks as if Peter Reckell (Bo), Julie Pinson (Billie), Kristian Alfonso (Hope), Wayne Northrop (Stefano), Diedre Hall (Marlena), Drake Hogestyn (John), Farah Fath (Mimi), and Eric Winter (Rex) have joined Billy Warlock (Frankie) in being given some storyline-dictated vacations. Newcomers, Grant Aleksander (Liam) and Peyton List (Paige), are also rumored to be in the same boat. The show has no comment, but sources say that this has no indication on any of the portrayers' futures with the show, and they will be back and in full effect in a few weeks. "If you'll notice, all of the characters are ones who are positioned somewhere outside of Salem - be it New Orleans, Maine, D.C., or in Europe. The show is choosing to focus on the characters who are in Salem right now."...the source says. "They are all on journies or quests or imprisoned right now so it doesn't make sense to see them everyday. But have no fear, fan favorites will be back on-screen with new twists in their stories in April."

    - There are big rumors floating around that Paige is the long-lost daughter of a very familiar Salemite.

    - There will be more cast cutting. The cast still rests at over 35 contracts which is not what the show wants right now.

    - Don't be surprised if six more characters exit by July - one in early April, four in May, and a supercouple in July.

    - Rumor has it the show has let-go one of its younger lead actors but wants to keep it hush-hush until the dramatic exit airs in late March or early April.

    - The show is committed to keeping Ashford (Jack), Rogers (Maggie), Ingle (Mickey), Aniston (Victor), McCay (Caroline) in frontburner storylines.

    - The show is pulling out all of the stops for May Sweeps.

    - A supercouple might be exiting come summertime. May Sweeps is going to be a huge month for them. And July might be their last. It is sure to upset some fans.

    - Tony's killer will be leaving the show in May. It looks as if the time has come for Koslow (Kate), Evans (Bonnie), or Benson (Abby) to leave Days of Our Lives.

    - A vet has been fired from the show, but it won't be a suprise to the portrayer or the fans. Look for a big exit in May.

    - Another rumor is swirling that a young stud has been fired from the show, and his character will the show in a dramatic way in May.

    - Rumor has it that NBC is pushing to get a character from "Passions" to move from Harmony to Salem...permanently!

Bo and Billie will be on their own quest for the real Georgia. They will reconnect in a way that neither could have imagined. Bo and Billie did have a real love once upon a time, and they will rediscover it. Bo is hurt that Hope kept the secret of Liam to herself for two months before telling him. Hope is angry that he got drunk and kissed Billie. They are both at opposite ends of the Earth viewing each other in very negative lights. Things do not look good for Bo and Hope for this Spring!

    Tony's Murderess: Abe and Jack will narrow the murderer down to four women in March - Kate, Bonnie, Caroline, and Abby. And they'll narrow that list down to three women by mid-March, and the heat will be ON. Fans will know in April who did the deed. And the Salemites will know in May. Even though the victim was Tony and it was much-deserved, the murderess will pay for her deed.

But then, she realizes he's keeping a big secret and puts her life in danger to find out what it is.

    Titan vs. Basic Black: This story will come to an end when the companies go head to head like never before, and one company is put of business. But the surviving company will have plenty of drama. The boardroom drama will not be going anywhere.

    Celeste/Tek/Lexie/Abe: Stefano will be heavily involved as it is revealed that Celeste has a huge secret from her past and he knows it! Stefano and Tek will both be manipulating the Carvers. Abe finally finds the proof that he needs to prove that Lexie has slept with Tek.

    Shawn/Caroline/Victor/Kate: Caroline's feelings for Victor intensify as Kate and Victor steam up the Titan board rooms. Kate/Victor hit a huge snag when it looks more and more that Kate could be the one who killed Tony.

    Bonnie/Mickey/Maggie: Now that Mimi has left town and Patrick is dead, Bonnie will find herself yearning for meaning and will look for it in the only man whom she feels has ever truly loved her - Mickey!
