I voted for Vivian to return--of course!! Louise is an AMAZING actress, and the character of Vivian is one of the most delicious characters to ever grace the Days canvas. LOVE her!!

I'd take a strong, classy, brassy, scheming character like Vivian over most of the female characters on Days any day. She would be a breath of fresh air, and there is still all kinds of story to tell for her--unlike some of the characters who are played out.

Ugh, defiently no. Viv sucked.

Ditto!

I voted yes too and it is very random. It must mean something because it came out of nowhere and I sure hope it means Vivian is returning. LOVE HER!!!

OF COURSE I voted yes. Louise Sorel is a dramatic and comedic genius and she NEEDS to come back to DAYS.

Vivian Alamain was just SUCH an awesome character...I would LOVE for DAYS to bring her back and bring out her villainess side again and tone down the comedic side.

Of course Ivan G'Vera as Ivan NEEDS to come back with her..the chemistry between Sorel and G'Vera rivaled the best on the show IMO!

I agree. I like her better when she's got a darker edge to her. Not flat-out evil like Stefano or EJ, but crafty like Sami or Nicole. I wonder how Louise Sorel is holding up these days (she's 66). Not that it really matters how she looks, as long as she can knock Kate down a peg or two!

Come home, Viv!

Word...to me the Vivian/Kate rivalry is more satisfying than the Sami/Kate rivalry!!

Sorel and Koslow just OOZED [!@#$%^&*]yness together it isn't even funny!! Come to think of it...Koslow is really good at forming GREAT [!@#$%^&*]Y rivalries between her character and SO many of the other females on DAYS.

I mean Kate has had a DAMN good rivalry with Laura, Vivian, Sami, Nicole...anymore?

Yeah Vivian needs to be more darker should she return. There were times when she got too campy and over the top but I loved her and of course Ivan has to return. I never understood why Days fired her in the first place. They kept her around for awhile even with no story after all.

You are so right Mitch-Kate has stirred alot of rivalaries. I am still waiting for a Hope/Kate fight because they should be rivals too after all Kate did to break up Bope. Hell, maybe a Kate/Marlena rivalrly would be in the offering. I mean Kate has messed with Belle's life and Sami's life quite a bit so why not. Marlena could use a rival since she hasn't had one since Kristen. I will never get enough of Sami/Kate but those other ones you mentioned were good too. The Vivian/Kate one is my all time favorite though.

She was on Passions last summer as Dort. She was playing a ragged cannery worker, it was hilaious seeing the uber glam Sorel playing that kind of role. And even though she wasn't glam, she still looked great for her age.

I would love for Vivian to return! I miss her rivalry with Kate and would like to see Sami/Vivain team up against Kate and tak eher down a peg or 2. Louise Sorel is just awesome and would be a big coup for DAYS if they can get her back on the show.

maybe she's EJ's MOTHER???!!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

I quit watching Days due to Vivian. I hated her and her lacky. They were disgusting to me. Sure hope that this poll carries no weight as I'd hate to quit watching again.

Since I feel equally strongly about her NOT returning, I'm putting in equal time here and hope that my view wins.

the character was written badly in the last 6 months of her on the show....Louise Sorel isnt bad taste...and if we had to loose someone like you becasue you dont like her because of the way she was written then thats fine your loss....BRING BACK VIVIAN!!!

I liked the creepy version of Vivian around 93/94. After 95, the character started to suck because they used her purely for comic relief.

I never understood why Days fired her in the first place. They kept her around for awhile even with no story after all.

I remember Sorel saying in Digest that they can pay 5 teenagers with her salary... and this was right after they had just hired a newly aged Belle, Shawn, and Phillip, with Chloe coming in soon after.

Okay, how stupid am I? My first thought (beyond "I loved Vivian! I hope they bring her back!") was "Isn't she tied up on General Hospital these days? And then I realized that Louise Sorel and Jane Elliot are not the same person. Why did I have them confused?

Although I guess there is a resemblance:
