Days: Another Major Contract Actress Let Go!


Recommended Posts

I would be (semi)OK with all these firings if the budget issues really called for it and it was part of an overall plan to get the show back on track,money and story wise,but it all seems so random.

Why is Corday going against what Hogan had planned? If the strike ends next week and Hogan is back on the job,how is he supposed to deal with the changes?

Why are Tony and Anna coming back? Will it be a story or just filler?

Hoping one of these actors will come out and talk about what is really going on behind the scenes.

You said it. Koslow was fabulous as Margo Lynley and the character is obviously still on Brad Bell's mind with Koslow's cameo in 2002 and then the arrival of Margo's brother a few months ago.

She was Stephanie's real threat. Brooke only went after Eric after Koslow left in 1992 to take care of her kids...she is what B&B needs. Snap her up Brad!!!

Days should have at least not fired people right and left because it has the fans wondering what is really going on. I do wonder what is really going on behind the scenes and who is doing these firings and why. I'm also now wondering why I should continue to invest in a show that is going to abruptly fire one or more people that I like to watch and thus end any hopes of following their stories in the long term.

I always liked Lauren Koslow, but Days has made me hate her. Or, at least, made me hate Kate. She entered into a Groundhog Day-ish cycle of the same thing over and over about ten years ago. Where she was once devious and despicable, she's now pathetic and lousy. It sucks that she's been fired so soon after agreeing to take a pay cut, and that she's been fired at all, but I think the character of Kate needs to take a break.

OMG Brad Bell writing for Lauren Koslow?! I *know* that he would appreciate her talents, which DAYS really hasn't the past few years. Then again, Lesley-Anne Down is kind of comparable to Lauren Koslow, and she has been absolutely defanged recently (and given an awful hair dye job.)

Still, I think that B&B is the best bet for Koslow fans. She would fit in there SO WELL.

I know what you mean about LAD...but really...as much as I love her...I'd dump her in a second to get Koslow! When Lauren did her cameo was Margo in 2002 the few scenes Brad wrote for her were better than the years of crap she's been given at DAYS.

She's a perfect fit for B&B. I hope her manager, Michael Bruno who also manages Lesli Kay, can get his ass in motion and get Lauren a contract!

If they were prepared to bring back Mark and Clarke in beefy roles, Margo would be a perfect fit back into B&B. Along with Jake there would be a whole Garrison/McClain clan in place and plenty of scope for Bill Spencer to return.

I agree that LAD would have to go but I don't think Brad Bell knows what to do with Jackie anyway. The taking over Spectra had promise but it's fizzled out. Have Jake seduce Jackie to get Spectra for Margo. Something like that.

What a huge loss for DAYS, Koslow was a source of untapped talent for the show, which they never truly exploited. If Bill Bell were alive, you bet your ass he'd want her back on B&B. Hell, he was so impressed by her on Y&R, he created the character of Margo on B&B specifically for Koslow and she's an original cast-member of B&B. She'll find work again, I'm sure.

DAYS' future keeps on looking more nonexistent as the days go by....

    • I thought today was still good. Leo is always awful, but the characters treating him like he's a plague feeds my soul. Rafe in particular had been very passive about him, but today was wonderful seeing him put Leo on notice. I really think it's being written that Javi is going to have to eventually take the blinders off and see Leo for who he really is. Them having sex on Gabi's desk made me want to explode. Roman taking in stray Doug was nice to see. And the mention of Frankie and Max was unexpected, but good to know they're at least being thought of. Tate being petty and a bit vindictive by going back to Sophia's as soon as he saw Doug with Holly was entertaining for me. I think I actually like Tate the most out of all of them because he's so damn messy.  Is Holly about to be kidnapped? Her first time? Also, Gabi finally revealing what happened with her the night EJ was shot and the clearing of all the other main suspects, but Johnny made this still feel like an important episode. I think Johnny will be cleared soon enough leaving everybody at a loss for the hell shot EJ. How the real shooter will be revealed is going to be interesting.  Speculation: When Kristen finally puts together that her daughter Rachel shot him, she'll agree to frame her mother for the crime, while keeping her hidden away from Salem.
    • That would have saved the Anita singing segment -- having her by herself, singing quietly and reflectively. Belting it out like she was in church did not work. The black screens fade at the end was a mistake. BTG insists on being different with these fades for the sake of being different, and it's not working.   I thought all of that was just fine. Worked for me.   I'm going to disagree with this. Martin hasn't had many scenes with his parents, but he's been around family A LOT -- and that's what matters. We also know Martin is someone with a hair trigger response. He can be very emotional when discussing an issue before getting to the logic and reason of it all.  
    • My view of Evan is that he's smart but not as smart as he thinks he is, not a good guy but not an entirely bad guy - he's a lot of things, the show never quite knowing what to do with them. I never saw him as Iris' follower because Iris always seemed a bit in over her head from the start. 
    • She was the Town Historian, who knew a bit too much about Brandon and the infamous cottage.  SF was still a pretty normal place at that time, with Nola and Reva being the most outrageous citizens....seems that Carrie Pipper would have stood out a bit more for people.

    • Yes, I need to dot hat. Also on my list talking to the person I got these files from since they clearly have a mess, in terms of dates being wrong. And, unfortunately finding one date wrong, automatically means more are wrong, too. 
    • I'm hoping that it doesn't happen. If the show keeps putting out good performance and story it will be hard to shut it out. Daphnee, Trisha, Ambyr and Colby are earning nominations without question.
    • Speaking of correcting dates, since you mentioned it above, why don't you go back to your Saturday post and edit it and replace your wording of "DAYS Ruth Buzzi 11-2-83"  with "DAYS Ruth Buzzi 11-1-83" and add a note that the video has the wrong date of 11/2/83 on it, and that the video is actually 11/1/83.
