They should have made EJ an Alamain.

I agree. No one would have expected it, so it would have been a good reveal. Although I personally love Tony and Stefano (when written properly), they are not the only villians who can terrorize Salem. I always liked the Alamains.

I'm glad that Thaao Penghlis is returning as Tony DiMera. I do hope Joe Mascolo(Stefano DiMera) will return. I could've done without Steve Blackwood(Bart Biederbeck) returning, I grew waaaaaaay tired of him before he was "killed off".

I do wish DAYS would've gotten Eileen Davidson back as Kristen Blake DiMera & Susan Banks. It's a disgrace that they didn't ask her.

I did like Louise Sorel(Vivian Alamain) but also grew tired of her due to how the writers at the time wrote Vivian. Written correctly, I'd like her back as well.

I could do without Arianne Zuker(Nicole Walker). I never was a fan of the "murdering whore" and think Nicole was played out. I wouldn't mind seeing Ari in another role on another show. I kinda wish that AMC had cast her as Greenlee since she looks as if she could be Walt Willey(Jack)'s daughter, due to her height.

And honestly ... Sheffer and Corday should of just brought back Jan instead of giving us Willow AND Gabby. They are morons.

I agree. They could've even tied her into the DiMera clan as Tony's daughter.

Jan as a Dimera would've worked. It seems Jan was who was going to end up being the gloved hand but that was under JER. I would rather have had Jan then Gabby or Willow but that lies in the past.

I think we always get the Dimera's because they are big with recent fans. People know them. I would love to see Lawrence back or even people like Ernesto and Vivian. I do think Vivian is very possible given Corday's recent comments and I still maintain we will see Stefano back very soon. I would love to see some of the 80's bad guys return. That is what I loved about B&C. They dug deep into history and pulled out Larry Welch as a surprise. I am sure the majority was thinking a Dimera kidnapped Hope and then we all got a shock. I kept thinking it was Tony or someone else predictable. I loved that twist and I think we would've seen people like Lawrence and such back under B&C. Steve's return was the perfect way to bring Lawrence back and return him to his early ways and it didn't happen. I don't expect to see him back now with Corday's self-imposed 15 year policy he seems to be hinting at.

I am ok with the Dimera's just as long as they are written the way that made them popular. If they are written like they were in the 80's and even the ealry-mid 90's, I am all for it. If it's SSM era and beyond, then no (of course, B&C had Tony written well until JER got a hold of him so I will exclude them from this).
