[DaytimeFan]

A banner month for Suzanne Rogers, 7 episodes, for her, is incredible. Hasn't she been wonderful?!

[Andrew]

What on earth did Maggie do in 7 Episodes?

Who is this Mary who appeared in 4 Episodes?

So many underused characters:

Kayla

Steve

Lucas

Stefano

Kate

Lexie

Why on earth did they put the ever so boring character Rafe on contract?

and where has Anna gone on the show?

Thanks for this list!.

[Toups]

Having them as your female leads?......yeah.....that shouldn't happen! One just started in the summer and the other just return in the spring. There's no way they should be the leads during Sweeps!

[Andrew]

I Dont mind seeing Nicole a lot, AZ has become a good actress after being a model. Plus Nicole is one of the more interesting characters right know, after the writers more or less ruined the character of Sami.

Melanie, terrible character, but i suppose the actress is ok.

Jason one thing, on your list is says Hope & John has appeared in the same amount of episodes.

But for Hope the number says 127 and for John 140. Just happened to see!.

[MikeGoldy]

I couldn't agree with you more! I am so happy for Suzanne and I hope it continues. She is beautiful, talented, and really could really become the important character she always should have been.

[LoyaltoAMC]

I think Suzanne logged so many episodes only because of the climax of the Nick stuff. No doubt it will be back to 1 or 2 eps in December. I love her and I hope she escapes the budget cuts hitting DAYS, if only so she can keep her health benefits.

[JAS0N47]

Andrew: Thanks for catching the error. I cut/paste when I update the rankings each month, so I just forgot to change Kristian's total to 140 when I was doing the update. It's been fixed now. As for your question, Mary Garripoli plays Mary, the DiMera maid.

[David_Vickers]

Why on Earth does DAYS have Molly Burnett(Melanie) on so damned much?!! She's an ok actress, but NO newby should be front and center.

[LoyaltoAMC]

Maybe I'm wrong, but didn't Frances Reid appear in their 4th of July episode? If not, was her last appearance in last year's Christmas episode?

[JAS0N47]

You're thinking of the 7/4/07 episode. Frances has appeared in three episodes since October 2006: the Christmas 2006, July 4th 2007, and Christmas 2007 episodes. She's had lines written for her in at least five episodes in 2008, but she's yet to be up to making the trip to the studio.
