Days:

Belle - get rid of the character and DO NOT recast. She adds nothing to the show, there's nothing there.

Jeremy - I'm starting to get a little ok with the character, but he needs to be recast.

Kate - I hate to say it because I use to love her but if tptb aren't going to use her properly get rid of her.

DAYS:

Kate - Love Lauren Koslow but she's been stuck in the same storyline for years; just end it!

Lucas - Never a fan of his and the character hasn't grown and matured at all

Billie - Again, love the actress but they are never going to give her a story of her own

Jeremy - Just - YUCK!

Lexie - They brought her back with no story! She's boring anyway, unless she's evil.

On the fence about the following because their characters have been so destroyed:

Stephanie

Nick

GH: Sam McCall. At least the Sam McCall with no backbone. I like that she is starting to grow one.

Jerry Jax Craig

Jax

Natalia Livingstons character. Please recast Emily with someone like Elizabeth Hendrickson or Peyton List

Georgie

and I may get shot for this, byt Mac if it brings back Robert

Eli Love

Laura Wright...but only because I was spoiled with Sara Brown. Sarah Brown will obviously never come back, so LW is just as good

Not a huge Belle fan here. But I must admit, she's got to stay for a lot of reasons.

I agree in theory. Belle is a legacy character and she should be a lot more developed than she is....she should be a major part of the show. But the fact remains that they've had close to 10 years, and Belle is still not strong enough as a character to carry a story. She needs to disappear for several years and have a life out side of Salem that we don't know about, and maybe later return.

OLTL -- Marty Saybrooke/Christina Chambers

No criticism of the actress intended. I didn't like the character of Marty before, I was actually pretty neutral. But the new actress or the writing for her is completely contradictory to the character and her history on the show. If they wanted to have "this" character on the show they should have just given her a new name and had her be an entirely new character. I still wouldn't like her, but then her behavior may have made sense. As it stands, she just looks stupid and weak.

I think GL has a pretty stable cast.

I would send Jeffrey and Ava packing.

Put Tina Sloan on contract with a decent story.

I would get rid of Natlia or whatever her name is or at least put her on recurring. Keep Rafe, I see good potential there.

Remy to recurring.

Get rid of Leah, or change actors and give her a story.

I think that is it for now.

A disagree 100%. Marty is being written pretty close to her old style. Christina Chambers is doing a great job as Marty. And this coming from a big Marty and Susan Haskell fan. Marty does NOT look stupid or weak imho.

This is mostly about Days Of Our lives, who i think sucks right know, many people would like to have favorites like Vivian Alamain, Jan Spears, Kristen Blake and others back, but if more newcomers or ore oldtimers who has appeared on the show before can come, some characters needs to be written out, and these are the ones i think should be written out from the show!

Jeremy Horton- BORING...but so sexxy he can stay

Stephanie Johnson- Not Needed.....agreed

Jett Carver- BORING.....sexxy and he can stay too

Billie Reed- Will never get a story again probaly......agree

Kate Roberts- The show needs a bitch who is on, Kate is never on!!!!!!!...agree

Marlena Evans Black- The most overrated character ever, a boring lovesick so called nice woman, Marlena should leave Salem, or go recurring,!!!!!!!I DOUBLE AGREE, lol

John Black- Not needed anymore either, go recurring maybe.I Triple this agree

Lexie Carver- She has just returned, but she is never on, she has no storyline, and if she is just going to be nice Lexie, she should leave also, or go recurring maybe!We need all the black folk we can get. I am tired of the white out in Salem for that matter the majority of the soaps

Phillip Kiriakis- Not Needed at all....i am so so on this

Kayla she can go She does nothing for me.

Roman can go to I wish WN would return

Who agrees????????!!!!!!!...........

Being "sexy" shouldn't be a requirement to keep anyone on any soap or any show for that matter. Trevor Donavan is nice eye candy as Jeremy Horton, but (1) he's not that good of an actor, (2) he's horribly miscast IMHO & (3) This version of Jeremy is horrible. I kinda like Marcus Patrick(Jett), but I might axe him and Danielle as well.

DAYS without John & Marlena would be horrible. Deidre Hall is a very good actress and an ICON to DAYS and most definitley needed. Drake Hogestyn's John is also definitley needed on the show. John's long coma was proof of that.

Renee Jones(Lexie) is also very needed as is IMHO Julie Pinson(Billie). Billie can still have mucho storyline if a good love interest would be brought on for her. My pick is most definitely Dr. Mike Horton in the form of (preferably) Michael T. Weiss (if he doesn't want to return to DAYS then re-cast with someone around his age and look, maybe J. Eddie Peck).

Phillip is most definitley needed as Bo's younger half brother, and the best love interest for Belle IMHO. Martha Madison has much more chemistry IMHO with Jay Kenneth Johnson(Phil) then she does with Brandon Beemer(Shawn), he had better chemistry with Farah Fath(ex-Mimi). A new love interest needs to be brought on for Shawn IMHO, maybe Jan Spears or a new character altogether.

I do wish DAYS could get Wayne Northrop back as Roman.

Agreed.

No way. I love Natalia and for a newcomer, Jessica Leccia convinced me right away that she could act. The guy who plays Rafe was kinda "dead" at first but he's starting to show some potential. I wouldn't mind if both stayed.
