The Suzanne Rogers Appreciation Thread

[Shawn]

She's aged with grace, dignity and beauty, and her red shoes will always glimmer.

Suzanne Rogers not only has the honor of being one of only two Emmy winners currently in the Days family (the other being Billy Warlock), she is beloved by many to be one of the backbones of Salem.

She is a joy to watch on screen, albeit briefly when we are graced with watching her, and she makes the most out of whatever material she is given.

I wish JERk, and the other IIC would utilize her gifts more often, because, as proven in the past, she is an actress of unprecedented caliber!

If you love Maggie Simmons Horton, let your voice be heard

I love the folksy genuinity, honesty and sincerity Suzane Rogers brings to the role. As posh as Maggie Horton is, you can tell she is still the same farm girl from Brookville.

Its a shame she's only on about twice a month. Rogers is still very foxy, she can do a whole lot better than this wobbly hobbit version of Mickey. I think DOOL should swap GH Jed Allan for John Ingle, kill off Mickey, and re-ingite Maggie's romance with Don Craig.

[Shawn]

I like the way you think!

[SuperFlyChad]

I Love the original Red Head! Maggie Rocks and Suzanne Rogers has the role locked. Nobody else could play Maggie with the same grace, charm, beauty, and charisma that Suzanne brings to the role!

I heart Maggie and I heart Suzanne.

I do agree that she is waaayyyy talented and TPTB at DAYS are neglecting it.

[Shawn]

I've often wondered what it would be like if Bill Bell snapped up Suzanne for Y&R and actually utilized her to her full potential, but then Days wouldn't be the same.

Suzanne Rogers Fan Here!

She is one of those characters that no matter how little she has to work with, or how bad the writing is, she always gives 100% I would love to see her in a storyline of her own. She once said in an interview that her dream storyline would be to play Maggie with D.I.D (multiple personalities) and I think she could give Slezak a run for her money. She is known to be the shows historian, and the writers have been known to ask her about certain facts regarding DAYS history.

Call me crazy, but I always thought Maggie and Stefano should have been more than aqaintances. Maggie would never have an affair on Mickey, but I always wanted her "friendship" with Stefano to put a strain on her marraige. It was always obvious that Steffy respected and cared for Maggie. He once called her the classiest gal in Salem. And no matter what Stefano did, Maggie was still nice to him. He was always welcome at Tuscany, and he seemed to be a sort of confidant to her. Maybe it was because she was felt in debt to him for saving her life when Tuscany blew up? It's in her nature to be a loving and caring person.

Wether she's fighing with Bonnie, telling Sami and Nicole how it is, guiding Lucas, or being a confidant to her many friends and family, she will always be the heart of Salem.

Btw

Actually there are 4 Emmy winners on Days but only Rogers and Warlock won for their work on DAYS.

The other two are Peggy McCay (Primetime Emmy) & Judi Evans (Supporting Atress for Guiding Light)

I love Suzanne and Maggie..and I agree that it's a shame she's only on once or twice a month.

I have loved both Suzanne and Maggie for eons now. It's funny, though, because for years on this board, I've been singing her praises and how she needed to have a storyline, but more than a few posters were all like "enh. they haven't used her in years. I like her and all, but enh." And *then*.... Days made the choice to viciously "murder" Maggie and played SR *heavily* for the couple of months leading up to it and whaddya know! Suddenly SR fans started climbing out of the woodwork, begging for Maggie to be spared and begging for TPTB to give Maggie and SR her own storyline. It seemed like SR uberfans were born almost over night.

I enjoy saying "I told you so."

SR will always hold a place in my heart for her talent, her beauty, her class, and her bravery in the face of a crippling illness that took her away from our screens for a year.

I wonder what Maggie and Victor would be like.....

[Shawn]

The episodes featuring Maggies "death" were heartbreaking, and honestly I think that when fans that were "eh" about her saw how amazing she was leading up to it, they realized what a gem Days was losing.

Just my opinion.

I could see Maggie with Victor, that would be awesome. Good and Evil. Oh the possibilities

Nice, but you need to add Christie

[razor32always]

Maggie's always been one of the coolest chicks in Salem. Kate and Maggie have always been one and two in my book.

Suzanne Rogers is a true talent, and it's a shame that Days hasn't capitalized on what she has to offer.

I think my favorite Maggie relationship is the one between her and Lucas. Suzanne and Bryan play off of each other so well, and I'm so glad that Lucas was made a Horton for that sole reason.
