That's a rare color photo of Mike & Margo! I was a kid when this story aired but I remember it well. A little trivia about Suzanne Zenor is that she starred in a unaired pilot episode of "Three's Company". She played the Chrissy part but only under a different name - Samantha. I thought the pilot was funny but I guess the females co-leads didn't have enough vavoom for TPTB. The pilot is included in the Season Two dvd set for Three's Company as a bonus.

Would you happen to have a color photo of Chris & Mary (Taylor/Stanger) ? I have never seen one.

I think that's correct, jam. Which is amazing, when you consider how many women Mike has been involved with over the years. IIRC, he didn't even marry Carrie Brady.

I would love for the character of Mike Horton to come back to Salem and Days, but as Mike Weiss portraying him again. I would love for Mike to come back to town assuming a position at the hospital as Chief of Staff. He could really put Ann in her place. Daniel and Mike don't have to be best friends, however, he could disapprove of Jennifer and Daniel's relationship. Or they could just be good acquaintances. With Mike back in town, Robin could come back and they rekindle their romance. Or even Margo could come back in town for a little while and Margo ends up being Paige's mother. Or what about April Ramirez who could be cousins to Rafe and Gabi. Mike and April were good together too. Once Mike returns, Jeremy could follow. Jeremy could be an intern at the hospital and yes, even have a steamy affair with an older woman which Dr. Mike Horton would definitely disapprove of. There are many possibilities of great storytelling and putting some real life, fire, adventure back into the show. Just a side note, I would love for the character of Linda Patterson to return too. She could be a rival to Maggie. But there are other things Linda could do. She could be a mysterious benefactor to the hospital or to a Kiriakis or Dimera Charity. I'm just brainstorming ideas!

These promos were and still are amazing! I couldn't help but get excited watching them! I wish DAYS OF OUR LIVES still wrote characters and stories like that. The promos back then knew how to lure you in to watch. You wanted to know what was going to happen. The Marlena one with wanting revenge against Stefano for "killing" Roman and kidnapping the twins was pure DAYTIME DRAMA MAGIC!!!!!!! I so miss it. The promo with everyone on Alamania and the the building crumbling and so forth was great drama and a lot came from that storyline. The third one with the party at Lawrence Alamain's and the murder...all the characters and suspects, JUST FANTASTIC! Where is that today on DAYS?

I have mixed feelings about the return of Linda. She was a great character when Margaret Mason played her. Not so much when Elaine Princi played her. Nothing against Elaine but she was totally wrong for the role (and the storyline didn't help). Wondering now who could do the character justice.

    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?
