Members Brady_fan Posted November 2, 2011 Members Share Posted November 2, 2011 http://www.tvguide.com/News/Ian-Buchanan-Days-1039238.aspx Exclusive: Ian Buchanan Joins Days of Our Lives Nov 2, 2011 10:10 AM ET by Michael Logan One of our all-time favorite soap hoppers is making his way to Salem! Daytime Emmy Award winner Ian Buchanan — a veteran of All My Children, The Bold and the Beautiful, Port Charles and General Hospital — is joining the cast of NBC's Days of Our Lives. A Days rep tells TV Guide Magazine that the popular Scotsman will play a character named Ian McAllister, a mega-rich businessman with a powerful and dangerous hold over cosmetics mogul Madison James (Sarah Brown). This isn't Buchanan's first time at Days, by the way. In 2001, he was among several hotshot daytime players who were recruited to play European royals at the coronation of Princess Greta. But, basically, he was a glorified extra. In addition to his vast suds experience, Buchanan was also a cult fave on Twin Peaks, It's Garry Shandling's Show and the Cartoon Network series Justice League, where he voiced the role of Superman's arch foe Ultra-Humanite. Buchanan starts shooting Days on November 14 and is expected to hit the air February 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted November 2, 2011 Members Share Posted November 2, 2011 Wasn't he on Days a few years vack as the father of Victor's gardener that kidnapped Stephanie and shoved her in a morgue drawer? The gardener was working for the DiMeras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cat Posted November 2, 2011 Members Share Posted November 2, 2011 IAN!!!! Hope this is a good one. I can picture Sarah Brown and Buchanan being all intense with each other. LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darn Posted November 2, 2011 Members Share Posted November 2, 2011 I am so sick of soap hoppers. But good for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted November 3, 2011 Members Share Posted November 3, 2011 I guess this is another short-term role? It sounds like he's going to be a generic bad guy type. I hope Sarah Brown isn't going to have to play out another story about molestation - this sounds like her story on GH with Stephen Macht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted November 3, 2011 Members Share Posted November 3, 2011 I love Ian Buchanan, so I have a small amount of hope, clearly someone needs to join the canvas that will allow the pathetic writers to inject some life into this show.

Members Sindacco Posted November 3, 2011 Members Share Posted November 3, 2011 I was thinking just the other day how much I wanted to see Stephen Macht as a villain on DAYS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted November 3, 2011 Members Share Posted November 3, 2011 so does this mean you would be open to his character falling head over heels for Marlena? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted November 3, 2011 Members Share Posted November 3, 2011 I think it would be fantastic if he did. Or Maggie. Or both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AmandainNC28655 Posted November 3, 2011 Members Share Posted November 3, 2011 HMMMM Buchanan and Hall...I'd be up for the show to test the waters and see what kind of chemistry these two have with one another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted November 4, 2011 Members Share Posted November 4, 2011 Yes, I'd be all for it because it would be something NEW, not the re-tread that I'm absolutely hating currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted November 5, 2011 Members Share Posted November 5, 2011 Remember how great the set up was for Marlena and Morgan's dad, Paul Hollingsworth? As John was brainwashed and gone and takin with Ava, i think. I loved it because there was a chance of something different. Of course not forever, but at least for a little bit.
