No.

All of the Hernandez siblings have just been made up. Rafe was an only child when he first started, then came Arianna out of nowhere, then all of a sudden they had a teenage little sister in Gabi, and now this guy. It is ridiculous.

I hope he is paired with Stephanie though, I don't want to see her continue to fight a losing battle with Melanie over Nathan.

I don't recall him ever being mentioned before. The mom has been talked about several times, though. But a brother? No

Ugh..can't believe we are getting another character that has no ties to the cast. Where was Dario during Arianna's memorial? rolleyes.gif She didn't even mention him in her videotaped will. Unless he is a brother they never knew about (which would be even more stupid. WHY are they extending this family even more?!), then it would make no sense.

Wonder if he'll be in the Chad/Gabi/Will age range, or Nathan/Stephanie/Melanie. I hope he's closer to Steph's age cause she's going to need a man when Melanie and Nathan inevitably reunite. Or, this guy could be for Abby...

They didn't really make up Arianna or Gabi. When Rafe first came on, he said nothing about his family or background so the show was fine there. I think they were fine with Gabi too because Rafe and Ari mentioned a little sister. This guy was never mentioned though. I'm thinking he will be a sibling or half sibling that no one in the family knew about. My issue with that is you need the mother to tell that story right and they've never brought her on, which is shocking since they've talked about her for so long.

When I got back into "Days" in November 2008, Rafe had already popped up. He was watching Sami during the Witness Protection/Sweeney maternity leave plotline. I remember Rafe saying he had been a hellion when he was younger and his mother left him with the nuns so they would straighten him out. This was why Sami ended up at the church during the WP storyline. Rafe's mother figure, Sister Agnes, had been there. Initially, Rafe only referred to Sister Agnes, but in March 2009 Pat Crawford Brown played her for a couple episodes. I don't remember any reference to Rafe being an only child, but I remember there were allusion to Emily Hudson before we saw her gravestone in July 2009. Sister Agnes said Rafe had been hurt in the past.

When Felisha Terrell was first cast, I was certain Arianna was going to be revealed to be Rafe's ex-girlfriend. I thought the sister angle was bizarre given the backstory with the nuns. Then Gabi showed up at Thanksgiving without any prior mention. I don't have a problem with it anymore. In one of the soap magazines, one of the writers said they are told not to mention how many children/siblings new characters have in case a writer wants to write one in. I don't mind the addition of Dario Herandez. Mark Hapka was introduced under similar circumstances. He played adult Johnny in a flashback before he played Nathan.

I don't know how anyone can say Dario has no ties to the canvas. There may not be ties that one likes, but he has a brother and a sister on the canvas, who are linked to prominent Salem residents. His brother's wife is one of the show's most featured players. It's not like he is Mr. Nobody from Nowhere. Personally, I rather have seen Nicholas Alamain return, but I'm more excited for Dario's arrival than I am Taylor's.

      Holly's final big story was the Sebastian mess in late 2004.   Vanessa and Matt were promoted to regulars near the end and were heavily recurring prior to that starting around 2007/2008.

      Keith has a softer presence, but it would have helped to see him be more aggressive or proactive in protecting them instead of standing around like a mannequin. A man the audience should be hoping and wishing gets back together. Nicole needs a new husband!

      She needs to learn to be honest with her husband about her lusty interests because being sex positive only works if you're not cheating on your spouse.

      Very disappointed in the writers in the way they are screwing with Nicole, Ted,  and Kat to make Leslie remain viable. So many holes everywhere.

      Somebody brought this up elsewhere which emphasizes why this NuTed appears as such a weakling. Why is Kat doing what HE should be doing? And that's everything he can to rid him and his family of this crazy woman. Kat is doing all kinds of things she shouldn't do but now I understand her more. She can't count on her father to eliminate this woman because he's a wimp. He's been too busy inviting her into his home and serving her drinks and offering her invitations to birthday parties. WIMP!!!!

      This is (maybe) overly simplistic and nonsoapy, but Doug needs to go to Gamblers Anonymous, to deal with the addictive neurological excitement hits that gambling gives him - and which control his life. Vanessa needs to go to therapy to find ways to remain healthfully lusty and sex-positive, but to stay away from anyone who would demean her.

      YT keeps commending GL clips to me. I discovered Kathleen Cullen was on in Christmas 1987. Was there any talk of making it permanent  or was this just a special visit? I wish they had made the visit permanent. I liked her chemistry with Grant Aleksander.

      I'm not sure it's as unpopular as you think.  I just think the show knew they were in a bind, and needed a proven couple for the viewers to invest in. Trying to reunite Vanessa and Ross had just failed in 87. I don't think Ed and Holly's affair was well received, as Simon and Garrett had a brother/sister chemistry. Enter Billy and Vanessa, who give you history and an out not to try and do a Josh/Reva/Billy triangle, which would've really wrecked the relationship between Josh and Billy. I'd have been ok with trying Vanessa/Ross again, and doing a Vanessa/Ross/Holly/Billy quad for a while. I hated Nadine. HATED. She had to be the most insufferable also-ran before ATWT's Julia Lindsay. This is where I wish I knew Roger's history better.
