Administrator Toups Posted July 9, 2011 Administrator Share Posted July 9, 2011 You can bring back anybody you want, or create new characters if you like - it only matters what you do with them. If the storyline and writing doesn't work, it doesn't matter if the character is old or new. So, I don't believe bringing back, a character like Tony/Andre or Lucas or Austin and Carrie or John and Marlena, is "moving back." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted July 9, 2011 Members Share Posted July 9, 2011 lucas, carrie, austin, john, mar i agree. bringing tony back from the dead, again, when he died in a very real and final way is moving back. back to the nobodys death matters, it has no real impact, they are not dead days.

Administrator Toups Posted July 9, 2011 Administrator Share Posted July 9, 2011 For me, unless it's cancer or someone gets decapitated (Soapdish!) or something that we're sure 100% it's not possible to come back. Tony's death: "But, Philip confronted Tony at the pier. They struggled and as Tony was leaving, he tripped an fell over the railing, onto a sharp plank. Nicole was also on the pier and saw the whole thing. Tony was taken to this hospital where he got a chance to leave EJ a clue (he wrote the letter "B") before he died from a heart attack, which resulted from complications from his fall." Andre's death: "While he lay helplessly in his hospital bed, Andre was visited by Shawn Brady, Sr. who had the notion of turning off his life support thus ending Andre's reign of terror once and for all. Shawn went as far as to barricade himself in the room with Andre, but, when it came down to it, he couldn't do it. Shawn didn't want to turn into a killer himself and he abandoned his plans. Seeing one last attempt to get revenge on his enemies, Andre feebly turned off his own life support, killing himself, in hopes that Shawn would be blamed." Those are easy deaths to come back from! Before they "died," they were given something to make them look like they were dead. Stefano's behind it. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Money Posted July 9, 2011 Members Share Posted July 9, 2011 Whether returning back from the dead or alive is moving back... and I like Tony. A few returning characters in limited capacity is fine but last thing this show needs is to be inundated with 90's folks especially if they're just going to recycle the same old storylines from the past.

Members JackPeyton Posted July 9, 2011 Members Share Posted July 9, 2011 pretty much. if they are going to make it 1995.2 id rather just go back and watch 1995 all over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 9, 2011 Members Share Posted July 9, 2011 The only way I could see Tony returning is if the show is around a few more years and Joe Mascolo takes a smaller role. I can't see EJ taking Stefano's place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted July 10, 2011 Administrator Share Posted July 10, 2011 If the writing (structure, pacing, build up, climax, good vs evil) will be like it was in 1995, then the show will be glorious to watch again! *fingers crossed* Come on, Reilly protegés!

Members Michael Posted July 10, 2011 Members Share Posted July 10, 2011 I like Tony being dead, because it actually adds some gravity to Stefano's character. It's something legitimate for him to be bitter about and to hate these people for. (Not that they really play it much now, but when they do mention it, it works... and I sort of read that subtext as the reason why he cares about bringing Chad into the fold.) Plus, I hated that undoing of so many years of history, how the Tony we'd seen onscreen was NEVER Tony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted July 10, 2011 Members Share Posted July 10, 2011 God, I forgot all about Shawn Sr. trying to kill Andre. Was that Hogan? Some of his stuff wasn't bad but he needed a better co-head-writer to balance him out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted July 10, 2011 Members Share Posted July 10, 2011 Tony has got to be one of the most convoluted character ever on Days thanks to the numerous and unnecesary rewrites and resurrections. He shouldnt return at all. Keep him in the past Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted July 10, 2011 Members Share Posted July 10, 2011 Which is too bad because they had Tony and Anna back and they wasted them. They fixed the Tony/Andre mess in an OK way (though convoluted) and it was fine. Then he gets offed in a really stupid way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted July 10, 2011 Author Members Share Posted July 10, 2011 I do think Lucas should be returning but not for Carrie/Austin/Sami/Lucas 3.0, just bring him in for the Will story and move him on out. I don't like the idea of Rafe being Will's "father" through all of the upcoming stuff. I doubt he will ever return anyway. He was pretty pissed when he was let go in 09.

Members Antoyne Posted July 10, 2011 Members Share Posted July 10, 2011 I like Tony and would welcome him back so the DiMera's actually seem like this big powerful family and not just EJ and Stefano. EJ needs a big brother, and the dynamic between Tony and EJ was quite interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members aMLCproduction Posted July 10, 2011 Members Share Posted July 10, 2011 I don't want Days to be like 1995 . Come on its 2011. Let' move forward. Surely there is a way to write good stories without resorting to a redux of 95. It's unimaginative Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
