DAYS: Actress Quits

[AMCHistory]

Is anyone really surprised with this. I think had she not walked, she would have been dropped.

I just wonder why they didn't ask her before starting what would have been a fairly long or complex story. I'm not sure what goes on with these decisions.

I'm sorry she is leaving. I kind of wish she'd stayed until the end, as that is probably only a year or two away, but then, a lot can happen in a year or two, so I can see why she decided to go. At least she will go out with some great material.

If she was under contract who knows if she voiced her feelings to anyone. She's always been a private person.it could be she was waiting to see if the new regime brought anything fresh or new. From the sounds of it she's just not motivated anymore. Better to leave like this than to stay around a job you really have no enthusiasm for. Too bad more actors on soaps today don't do that.

Very true, but it is hard to give up that steady paycheck.

[Money]

This makes me really sad since I've always held a smidgen of hope DAYS would finally wake up and utilize her talents to the fullest but it was never going to happen. The way they've used her was criminal and I if she thinks they did "everything" there is to do with Lexie when in reality she's always been languishing on the backburner throughout her entire tenure on the show then more power to her. Damn, she really shone as a Dimera. It was the one and only thing DAYS ever did right with her character and that was over ten years ago. Such a shame.

After what, two/three unbelievable firings? I wish her nothing but the best. The cynic in me thinks she knew she was going to be fired again and just wanted to be done with it. DAYS has shown her zero respect.

I'll miss her. I'll defintely watch the babyswitch saga again in memory of her rocking the hell out of that storyline.

Well she Dies in June and Days tapes months ahead so RJ is probably finished filming already

I'm sad now we only have one black actor(James) and one Latino actor( Camila)

[AMCHistory]

I think Galen Gearing is portraying a Latino.

James Reynolds is entirely un-impressive as an actor too; it is hard to make a case for keeping the Carvers around.

[Mr. Vixen]

Damn...Now I have to try and get back into days...AGAIN. I've been catching tidbits of the Will story, and that's good....But I haven't watched the show full time since Alice's memorial.

[AMCHistory]

And what a wonderful week that was... I look back at how well written and cast that week was. I wish John Martin would be invited back as Bill, even if only from time to time to chorale the Hortons together.

[Mr. Vixen]

I agree. I continued watching for a few weeks after the memorial, but then got busy and fell out of the habit. I've made a few attempts to get back into it since then but honestly just couldn't.

[AllMyDaysatGH]

I'll miss RJ/Lexie terribly This could be an ideal time to age Theo a bit and do a little more with his autism story but I'm sure they won't even bother.

[Mr. Vixen]

I wonder how this will go down..I'm actually very excited to watch it, even though I'm very disappointed to see RJ go.

[DaytimeFan]

Mixed emotions over this news. Sad that Lexie is leaving the canvas and that Renee Jones never got to reclaim the glory she had when Lexie went bad to the bone.

At the same time, delighted for Renee Jones that she got to leave on her own terms and that she's looking forward to her new life and that she has the money to do it. Honestly, I so appreciate it when an actor says that they saved their money and can go forward without worry, it takes discipline to do that and I applaud her.

She has given many of us a lot of joy, so I wish Renee only the best because she's a class act and a hell of an actress. I only hope her next act is a great one!
