Yep, that's prob what happened.

Which, in turn, means they wanted him out without even taking a look at him (based solely on the fact he was a new character) and then they saw what they were missing out and changed their minds. Or there was positive fan reaction to the character. Doesn't that seem a little stupid? Shouldn't you look at the canvas before making decisions like these? lol

Oh, I stinks of a barely thought-out short term character that they just got lucky with. It's just sad that he has to be yet another criminal. Stefano/EJ/Victor are enough I think for one show.

You mean being a pimp/drug dealer was a deliberate starting point for someone they wanted to keep around? I hope not! :lol:

One of the main reasons I said that.

Yeah thinking about that, at this point they can just axe the character because there is no more use for her now with all the changes. And hasn't TB already been let go anyway? I forgot about that.

Taylor is a horridly written character so she needs to disappear.

There's space on the canvas for Nicole's sister, if she's written differently and has rich and layered dynamics with Nicole. But it ain't gonna happen.

lol +1

Name some DAYS villains who weren't crminals.

The prolem with that is that none of them are really a villain. Victor is a love sick puppy these days, sometimes we see him barking orders to someone over the phone, but that's it. Stefano is just on to give EJ advice. EJ is just all over the place.

I agree and obviously would LOVE that, but I don't think she'd accept their offer even if they made one. She seems resigned to moving back to New York and following up on her writing. She's in her 70s now and I don't think can take the tug & pull of "We want you" "We don't want you" "We want you back" "Oh wait, just on recurring" that DAYS is likely to pull. She's already said she has enough money that she doesn't need the gig and I just don't think she'd stay at this point. Too much has happened.

Nadia is leaving of her own accord. Frankly, she kind of deserves the insult. She's beautiful but she's not much of an actress and this wishy-washy creature she's been playing ever since the show paired her with Brady (in '01? '02?) is NOT Chloe.

As for Chappell & Sorel, I'm sure Bren Foster comes A LOT cheaper than them. Frankly, I think the show is done with Chappell anyway and I don't see Sorel staying, even though it would beehove them to ask. Think about it- they could keep Quinn, NuNicholas, and Vivian and they have a whole new villainous little family on the canvas. It would be smart and I've said from the beginning that these PASSIONS writers could have done wonders with Vivian, which is why I was SHOCKED that Sorel was one of the first to be let go.

I just don't think she'll stay unless offerred a solid contract, and I think the show would want to go the recurring route with her. As much as I'd LOVE for it to happen, it's not going to.

Prove me wrong DAYS! I'll gladly eat crow on this one.....

    • the famous babyswitch. the best babyswitch imo
    • Yes, it has. It was seen in the episodes when Dani broke into the house while Hayley and Bill were on their honeymoon. Dani and a Fairmont Crest security guard were also shown outside the house's entrance. Bill and Hayley were seen in the foyer when they returned. I imagine the set will resurface when there's a need for it.
    • There is some kind of arrangement going on between Justin and Evie, who seems to be caring for Sam. I'm not sure, but she may even be living there with Justin and Phillip. Phillip inviting Evie at least makes a little more sense (if the guest list was limited to women Vanessa liked, it would've only consisted of Trish and Helena. lol)  Maybe it was more common to hang on to performers, back in the day? Instead of immediately kicking them to the curb? Evie hadn't had much to do after Chet was revealed to be her stalker. With Rita, Jackie and Ben gone, there weren't many on the canvas she'd really worked with, other than Ross. They could've pivoted her back to Ross, instead of letting him languish love-less for nearly a year other than goo-goo eyeing Amanda. Nowadays, there might've been a moment written Jordan and Janet, an eye-wink to the audience about them having previously worked together.
    • I 100% agree that Bill and Haley's set would work better as a bedroom. I also think it might have made more sense to give them a penthouse instead of a mansion. Realistically they aren't going to have the room for multiple mansions, even with the larger studios. A more open concept penthouse would've been fine. I also wish more people lived together. The age confusion kinda messes that up but I would at least have Chelsea living with Dani. If Martin were Anita and Vernon's child (as he should be), I'd have these families living together as well. By doing that, the space used for Martin and Smitty's house could be used to build a dining room for the Dupree home and I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to throw a couple bedrooms in as needed.
    • CBS primetime was such a mess in the 1990s. 1990/91 fourth consecutive third place finish. 1991/92 to 1993/94 some signs of life but it didn't last.  1994/95 to 1999/2000 another primetime mess era. 1995 the sale to Westinghouse and Les Moonves arrived. The only bright spots were Touched by an Angel becoming a Top 10 show and Everybody Loves Raymond starting to show growth. CBS primetime would have a comeback in 2000 with the premieres of Survivor and CSI and Everybody Loves Raymond becoming a Top 10 show, and the rest is history.
    •  Thanks! For some reason I had misremembered ER and Chicago Hope going directly head to head but that may have been because of the hype about both shows.    Poor Connie Chung. She seem poised for success and possibly the next Barbara Walters. I don’t recall her co-anchor gig on the CBS Evening News was well received though. She kind of tanked her career moving into more a tabloid journalist role once at ABC and especially once she moved off network TV to CNN and later more infamously on MSNBC.

    • Strangely, it was Phillip who invited Evie to go to the ball with him. She had been taking care of Samantha, so I guess it was a way to thank her for helping Justin after Jackie's death? So she was not invited by Vanessa. Phillip brought her as his plus one. That Evie stayed on the canvas so long is extremely odd, especially since Ben was gone way before her. My theory is Marland was going to bring Rita back, so they wanted Evie to remain in place as her sounding board. When he left and Potter was still EP, that might have still been the plan. Once Kobe came in, that would have been thrown in the dumpster along with a lot of other story plans and characters.
    • Nina and Portia are generally presented as entirely too savvy to not think this ketamine (don't even GET me started on that) nonsense wouldn't immediately blow up in their face. Drew, the ex-navy seal and congressman, wouldn't get a drug test immediately after acting wildly out of character? Portia allowed this to so easily be traced back to her by roping in Brad, a man who can't stand her? Nina didn't think Willow would Stand By Her Man? Girl, PAY ATTENTION! I also find it disturbing how BOTH of them are gaslighting Willow. It feels gross. They should have presented Gio as anything other than a responsible, genial and affable guy if they wanted us to buy any of Dante's ranting about him. You've known this kid since he was a baby and suddenly you're yelling at him like he's the devil incarnate? It was so forced. Every one of them, including Dante, know that they all would have done the same thing in Gio's shoes. Teen gets drunk, friends cover for them. Gio's only 5 years older than him, barely allowed to legally drink himself. How was he to know the kid had alcohol poisoning? Alexa Havins crying every day over keeping a baby secret. Ahh memories. Molly and Kristina are just the worst to their mom and Alexis allows it. Kristina does need to be committed, she's a danger to herself and others. I wish Alexis would just tell her that she knows. I can't wait until Molly finds out about her almost getting Ric and Liz killed. I need her to body slam Kristina. Sasha thinks she knows EVERYTHING. She's always giving advice and painted as right no matter what. And so holier than thou while carrying a married man's baby.
    • Correction, Chicago Hope 1994/95 was initially Thursday 9 pm, a CBS dead zone and head-to-head w/ Seinfeld. 1994/95 CBS Thursday 10 pm initially was Eye to Eye with Connie Chung. Later in the season CBS did a scheduling shift with Chicago Hope moving to Monday 10 pm, Eye to Eye with Connie Chung moving to Thursday 9 pm, and 48 Hours moving from Wednesday 10 pm to Thursday 10 pm.
