Members dragonflies Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 Vivian exits September 23rd. Ivan returns to town, he's a rolling in dough film producer, shows up in full Bollywood drag and sweeps his "Madame" off to India to make her a star! LS is not happy about this exit to put it midly. She thinks it turns her character into a cartoon or an idiot. She says it's embarassing and pathetic for a woman Vivian's age to suddenly announce she's going to be in Bollywood movies. She expressed her opinion to one of the producer's much more crassly than she intended because she was so full of sadness & rage. It didn't help that she was fired in a graceless manner. She says there was never a thank you, never a goodbye. It's not just Days, that's the way it's done everywhere now.. There is a lack of respect from those up above for the people who are doing all the work, it's like you don't exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 I feel sad for her. I like Vivian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 Bye Vivian. I feel bad for Louise Sorel, but I can't stand the character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Carolyn1980 Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 You know, I really like Louise Sorel. I think my favorite role for her was Judith Sanders on OLTL, who was never really developed to her full potential. But really....is it worth getting that worked up about how your character is written out? Sure, it's a ridiculous way for her to go, but sheesh....suck it up, and just do it, without complaining. Between her, Robin Strasser, Kim Zimmer, etc, I'm reminded of Sarah Silverman's quote about "Divas": Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shawn Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 Her return has been botched from the beginning of her latest stay. Good riddance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Antoyne Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 It sucks because lately they've actually started writing Vivian more like Vivian...And she and Bren have fantastic chemistry, and that story just shouldn't be ending already especially going back to campy garbage..I get that DAYS is trying to change or whatever, but she was also around with all of those characters being brought back.

Members DaysnPassionsFan Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 Oo, so is Ivan G'Vera going to be back? While they ruined the character this go-around, I think their exit is sort of reminiscent of the moment they got in the limo to spend their lotto winnings around the world. Ivan, whisking away his madame from the craziness of Salem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 I can see why Louise Sorel is upset about this exit - she has always fought for her character and she never seemed thrilled about how ridiculous Vivian became in the late 90's. But really, her exit could be much, much, much, much, much worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 Vivian has been a cartoon and idiot for the better part of the last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members remos Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 LMAO - Brilliant! And I agree. Sometimes I find these actors forget they are actors. Yes it's a skill and yes it's to be respected, but it's not ending world hunger or something equally significant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 Louise isn't wrong, it's a ridiculous way for a character of her age/style/position to exit the canvas. Honestly, it's like Corday hates her and sticks it to her whenever he can. Louise is a very serious actress and she fights for her character and the writing that goes with it. She's been burned so badly by DAYS over the years, she's not a diva, she's a professional and the way she's been treated must really kill her.

Members DRW50 Posted August 9, 2011 Members Share Posted August 9, 2011 It's ridiculous but compared to what she could have had (being killed off in a f*** you fashion a la JFP or Guza; just vanishing without a trace; slinking out of town with everyone jeering her), I think it's OK.

Members Cheap21 Posted August 10, 2011 Members Share Posted August 10, 2011 they could have had her found facedown in a lake after an episode of Carly, Melanie, Daniel, Jennifer, Kate, Nicole, Victor, Chloe, Quinn, Gus and Stefano were running around talking about how much they hated her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted August 10, 2011 Members Share Posted August 10, 2011 I think Louise would prefer being killed off, vanishing or slinking out of town with everyone jeering at her because at least it would fit Vivian's narrative. Face down in a lake? Sounds about right. The Bollywood thing is just over the top lunacy that's reduced Vivian to a complete joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted August 10, 2011 Members Share Posted August 10, 2011 Vivian definitely should have been murdered. The character doesn't deserve a happy ending. And in a perfect world Daniel would have done the deed, be sent to prison for life, and never mentioned again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
