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 don't expect Lois to be the same person she was 25 years ago, but she's definitely lost a lot of what made Lois unique.  It's clear the show doesn't know how to write for her, and the sole purpose of Lois is to hide this Gio secret.  It's a shame she doesn't interact with more of the canvas.  It's a waste of Rena's talents. I like Brook Kerr most of the time.  She can be hit or miss.  I totally get what you are saying about her line readings too.  I honestly think the character really suffers being stuck in the Curtis pairing.  She's much better than Tanisha Harper's Jordan lol.

      Friday and yesterday's episode is what daytime television should be. The other shows airing could take a page from yesterday's show.  I loved the rage, hurt and anger Nicole unleashed on Ted.  Daphnee should be up for an Emmy nom for these scenes.  It broke my heart to see how Dana had locked Eva out.  I do feel sorry for Eva.    I am still bumfuzzled as to why Leslie/Dana went to the DuPree's and asked them to accept Kat UNLESS Eva is really Kat's twin (and really Nicole and Ted's daughter that maybe they though they lost or an embryo Dana/Leslie stole??) I loved how Anita and Vernon both shot her down.    Ohhh and let me just say Friday and yesterday was the MOST fire I have seen Martin have since the show started.  Maybe Brandon Clayborn is coming into his own with the role finally.

      Where to for Dana? She's pissed off the Duprees (most of the cast), alienated her daughter and will she be welcomed by the Have Nots at the diner? Maybe she can befriend Ashley and Derek and liven up their story.

      I think of Evan as a smarmy bast*rd. Maybe you'll like that description. You certainly have him pegged correctly since he is just a soldier following "Admiral" Iris's marching orders.

      So far the only interest I've seen from Evan to Amanda has been listening to Iris's orders to go and seduce her.  So far he hasn't been successful... but who knows. Amanda is unbearable at times. Entitled, spoiled... idiotic. Iris... so blatantly manipulating her and Amanda takes the bait. But I guess... when she gets in trouble... she'll have a chance to learn. That's what makes these shows so interesting.    Oh, no, don't worry. You haven't ruined a thing. Evan has not been on my radar that much... he was not one of the characters I was caring particularly... so nothing much has been changed for me. I don't think he has the stuff to ruin Rachel's life. He's just a pretty guy that can follow orders. Iris on the other hand... is dangerous.

        P.S Maybe Evan will surprise me. Who knows.

      The show has gone back to 10/10 entertainment! I'm glad that I was right in feeling that what were experiencing were growing pains. I'm sure they are not over yet, but I'll know that we always comeback to quality drama. I think it's going to be a hell of ride (in a good way) from this moment on. BTG has that magic that not a lot of shows have. I'll update more... when I'm done catching up.

      So very glad to hear this. Yesterday I suddenly thought; OMG, what about spoilers, have I just  ruined things for Maxim in getting carried away with interest in Evan, who was so well-written & well-acted. BTW, your fan review of this episode was a sight for eyes that had not seen one of these for a little bit too long, LOL!!!  Mitch is also fascinating to me but in his case it's because he was all in with Janice & her nefarious plan & then he did this turnabout we've mentioned & he basically got off scot-free.
