DAYS: Behind the Scenes, Articles/Photos

[teplin]

I would argue that Don was A-level in the mid-to-late 70s, both before and during the time he was paired with Marlena -- Jed Allan was somewhat of a fixture in those Daytime TV fan polls. But he was mostly an afterthought once he and Marlena broke up. I thought he had great chemistry with Suzanne Rogers for the brief time they were paired, and also with Ann-Marie Martin's Gwen Davies.

 

But yes, CC was such a great role for him, being fired by DAYS worked out for the best.

I don't think he was actually fired by Days just dropped to recurring and he chose to leave.  What ever happened to Gwen?  She was Marlena's roomate during the Strangler stuff and I don't remember anything that happened after.

I actually think Jed Allan had great chemistry with Suzanne.  It was probably her best pairing.  Which is blasphemous to say, but her and Mickey always bored me to tears.

Well either that or she's about to move to Miami and live out her golden years with Sophia, Rose, Blanche, and Dorthey.  She's a lovely lady, but Julie is portrayed as the grumpy grandma while Jarlena are still portrayed as a hot couple still getting it on lol.

Damn Gregg Marx was handsome lol

 

I know they burnt through a lot of story for David in just a few years, but he never should have been written out. I think there was still more that they could have done with him.

Trish holding that gun is just so lol.   The least threatening thing ever.  

[AbcNbc247]

I don't see it either lol

 

I wonder how Patty Weaver did with the multiple personalities storyline back in 1977. I wonder if she was able to pull it off.

"I'm gonna blow you ... across the room!"

*bad timing for a pause there, Patty*

[carolineg]

Probably not well.   Her holding a gun was just hilarious.  And her line reading...

I would imagine that if Ron Carlivati had written that scene, he would have come up with a pun for Alex to say

It would be great to have David back. Gregg Marx is as handsome as ever. Unlike many of the characters on the canvas. David isn't played out. Would love to see David met his son and grandbabies. Kate would welcome him back to Salem. By sleeping with him. Maybe after more than 40 yrs. David & Valerie can find some happiness.

Looking again at that photo of SSH, I notice that she's doing the old lady hunch forward. You know, if the wardrobe wasn't enough, I guess they really want to sell that this woman is clearly not a Millennial.

[AbcNbc247]

That would actually be a smart thing to do.

 

They could say that David faked his death because he had gotten into trouble or something. It would be nice for David to finally meet his son. They could even bring back Scotty and have him finally meet his brother.

 

I haven't seen any of Gregg Marx's work, but I'm sure he still has a lot of appeal
