I would get too excited about Stefano as yet.

Wasn't it in last week's SOD that he said he wouldn't be interested in going back short term?

GL has been mentioning Lujack lately. I wouldn't be surprised if VI ended up there.

Stefano. Well, they just cut major cuts probably in the hopes in getting him back. I bet he will return. It's just a matter of when.

Corday needs to get over it and let Mascolo come back full-time. I know he wants to get away from the wackiness and idiocy (FINALLY) but with Hogan writing, it won't be like that.

PLEASE let Mascolo return full-time. Sigh.

If it's the Stefano of the early and mid 1980s, bring it on! The DiMeras were a tortured crime family back then and watching them in action was great. It was when Stefano interacted with everybody.

if they were smart, Vincent would cross over to GH. Evil doctor ... perfect for that show.

The only reason we knew about Carrie & Austin's wedding was because when it was announced they were fired/let go, TV Guide or whatever stated that they would leave the show married. They did the same for Jack & Jen's farewell: the spoilers came out like a month before the airdate.

Well, that's not just it. We heard about EJ/Kate and Chelsea/Kate like months ago too. Patrick/EJ. EJ a Dimera? And Shawn's hooker friend. And Chelsea's teen friend. I guess most have to do with casting, but JESUS!

I think the reason why we got spoilers so far in advance KR is because Hogan had to give the fans enough to come back. The fans were unhappy and wanted to know where the show was going so he told them. It won't always be like that-he just had to show what was coming in hopes that people would come back and watch and see they are getting what they want.

Plus, we got Fall previews and several Hogan in-depth interviews right after so it was alot. We won't have that ell the time. Ordinarily, you just get seasonal previews or something but because it's a new writing regime naturally they will want to give alot out.

I loved it because it gave us alot to look forward to but I am hoping it will calm down because I don't want to know everything too far ahead. Casting did play a role but it sounds like things have calmed a bit. I chalk it up to just promotion and trying to show the fans that gave up that the show is serious.
