Members RionPassions Posted April 13, 2007 Members Share Posted April 13, 2007 If this "Jett Carver" were Ben Reardon, then they'd call him "Ben Reardon", I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DrewH Posted April 13, 2007 Members Share Posted April 13, 2007 My thoughts exactly. I'm guessing Jett is Karen Carver's son. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Angie79 Posted April 13, 2007 Author Members Share Posted April 13, 2007 From Dustin's Rumor page: April 13 - From An Anonymous Actor Two casting calls went out today for new roles on Days. Note: The roles haven't been cast yet so consider them spoilerish rumors for now! Also some soaps have a habit of putting casting calls out for one character with the intention of casting the role of another. The first role is for Jett Carver, described as an African American male in his mid twenties. He is in the Air Force with Jeremy Horton. This character is set to become involved with Chelsea. He and Jeremy are up to something involving high rollers. (Jett is obviously somehow related to Abe, a nephew?) The second role is Jeremy Horton, who is the son of Dr. Mike Horton and Robin Jacobs (last heard they were all in Israel). Jeremy is in his mid twenties as well, is described as handsome, dangerous and edgy. He is nothing but trouble. Jeremy is set to get involved with Stephanie Johnson. He also flew planes in Iraq. http://www.soapoperafan.com/days/rmill.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members PhoenixRising05 Posted April 13, 2007 Members Share Posted April 13, 2007 Now these are newcomers I like. They add to existing families and, in the case of Jett, add diversity. Stephanie/Jeremy sounds good and I have a feeling you will see a triangle made out of Jett/Chelsea/Nick. I do wonder what this means for Max though. It's is good news considering the loss of Ashley but I still think they should recast and bring her back later on like they did Stephanie. I just hope we get balance and that we don't have these two shoved down our throats. Hogan did say more Horton's and he did seem to like the Carvers so here you go. I have a feeling Jett is Abe's nephew like Drew said. This is good news for me and I am glad others here agree since other boards are cursing this citing that they don't want to see any newbies, regardless of connections to the canvas. If it were Benjamin, I don't think the last name would be Carver on the casting call but it could be a cover. I never did like Thyme Lewis or any of the actresses that played Wendy except Yvonna Kopacz but the character was still a waste. Both Jonah and Wendy were dropped despite major hints of a story with Benjamin so I don't think Days would look to that well. This also does not mean Lexie isn't coming back. If anything, the current casting decisions suggest that the Dimera's and now, if this news if true, the Carvers are going to become very prominent so there is room for Lexie. I still think we will she here at one point and it won't surprise me to see Mike return too as a love interest for Billie and because there seems to be a major shift towards the Horton's coming up.

Members Shawn Posted April 13, 2007 Members Share Posted April 13, 2007 These actually sound good, especially Jeremy. I hope Mike returns too. I loved Roark Critchlow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Days4Life Posted April 13, 2007 Members Share Posted April 13, 2007 This sounds interesting. I would love for Jeremy to come to town, especially if it helps pave the way for Mike Horton's return. And he would be a possible love interest for Billie, who really needs a decent, unattached man (Mike, that is, not Jeremy). As for Jett, his character description sounds like Chelsea's type so that could certainly slow down the progression of her romance with Nick, which was moving too fast anyway. Like others have said, balance is going to be key here. Introduce the new guys gradually and don't shove them in our faces four or five days a week! I'd forgotten about Wendy/Jonah/Benjamin, but now I remember how annoying it was because they were dropping all kinds of hints about a story concerning the baby and then it was abruptly dropped and they left town, never to be mentioned again.

Members Ponz Posted April 13, 2007 Members Share Posted April 13, 2007 Ehh, I have mixed feelings about this. It's good that they are bringing in two characters with connections to established families as opposed to random people like Willow & Gabby. Rebuilding the Horton family is critical and I remember posting a few weeks ago that Jeremy Horton would be a great addition. That being said, these are two more unfamiliar faces for viewers to have to digest (three counting NuStephanie). When Corday commented on returning to the core of DAYS, I hoped that meant a temporary embargo on newbies. I'll reserve judgement for the moment but if these two get more than one/two episodes a week, this will be a bad move. I tend to think the Jett casting counts against Lexie returning. Abe is at a loose end with only Celeste to interact with so they are presumably bringing this guy in to beef up JR's airtime. Booo to Chelsea & Nick having an interloper.

Members KevC1980 Posted April 13, 2007 Members Share Posted April 13, 2007 So our cast for the summer is looking to be... 1. John 2. Marlena 3. Bo 4. Hope 5. Steve 6. Kayla 7. Billie 8. Kate 9. Roman 10. Lucas 11. Sami 12. EJ 12. Tony 14. Stefano 15. Victor 16. Shawn 17. Belle 18. Phillip 19. Gabby???????? (i'm thinking she'll kidnap claire) 20. Nick 21. Chelsea 22. Jeremy Horton 23. Stephanie 24. Jett 25. Abe 26. Celeste 27. Doug 28. Julie 29. Maggie 30. Caroline 31. Shawn Sr. 32. Bart 33. Colin Murphy???????? 33. Max??????????? Abby and Willow will be gone....Duck will be gone...Gabby i don't see being longterm...Max is a big question mark, which sucks since i like Max...and Colin will probably just be on to play out the brady/dimera fued storyline, if its true he's returning..

Members Ponz Posted April 13, 2007 Members Share Posted April 13, 2007 I highly doubt the Colin rumor is true. It was posted by some random person on the NBC board, with no source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KevC1980 Posted April 13, 2007 Members Share Posted April 13, 2007 thanks ponz..because i'm sure this story can be told just fine without the likes of Colin... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Days4Life Posted April 13, 2007 Members Share Posted April 13, 2007 It appears Salem is going to be quite crowded in the months coming up, if all these returns/new characters actually happen. I have a feeling we're going to be saying goodbye to Willow, Gabby, Duck, and probably even Max, since Abby is leaving. Stephanie is probably being brought back because of Abby's departure, because that would only leave Chelsea and Nick for the younger crowd. And although I love the vets, we do need the young adults, too, so that's why I'm okay with Jett and Jeremy IF it's done properly, with the right balance of vets and newbies. And at least these are characters with connections to Salem, instead of random prostitutes and flirty island girls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
