Members sungrey Posted April 10, 2012 Members Share Posted April 10, 2012 Oh, crap. I have a feeling my association with Days is about to come to an end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members darraholic Posted April 10, 2012 Members Share Posted April 10, 2012 We all know DAYS will fire all the wrong people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted April 10, 2012 Members Share Posted April 10, 2012 I bet the cliffhanger leading up to the Olympics will be weak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted April 10, 2012 Administrator Share Posted April 10, 2012 Drake Hogestyn, Deidre Hall, Peter Reckell, Kristian Alfonso, Christie Clark, Patrick Muldoon to start. Bank on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted April 10, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 10, 2012 Don't forget Matthew Ashford they ALWAYS fire him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 10, 2012 Members Share Posted April 10, 2012 Honestly, is it a bad thing if they fired most of these people, especially the returnees? I don't think they've much of anything for the show, let alone for the ratings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted April 10, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 10, 2012 Who has? That's always a weak argument people pull out. Not much has helped ratings for soaps these days. They should fire the pointless newbies, and even EJ, I wouldn't doubt James Scott is making some serious coin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sungrey Posted April 10, 2012 Members Share Posted April 10, 2012 The point I made on the TV Guide website is that instead of rushing to whack the cast members, they should keep everyone and instead write compelling stories. Right now, you're pretty much guaranteed more viewers walking depending on who gets let go. This is the last thing Days needs. The show's signing a death wish.

Administrator Toups Posted April 10, 2012 Administrator Share Posted April 10, 2012 Yes because then you limit the family connections, you lose that depth. Unless you want to use them as recurring but DAYS didn't do that the last time. Like when Grace died, they couldn't ask Deidre to come back for some back for some episodes? Okay fine, you don't want them in major storylines anymore but to not use them if they're available and willing to come back? I think that's wrong.

Members dragonflies Posted April 10, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 10, 2012 What Toups said. I think the show is better off having these characters on the show. Cut some of them to recurring, I can live with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sungrey Posted April 10, 2012 Members Share Posted April 10, 2012 And recurring isn't necessarily a bad thing. Hell, some of the Guiding Light actors probably made more money on recurring in the final couple years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted April 10, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 10, 2012 No it's not, I'd rather see them sporadically than not at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AMCHistory Posted April 10, 2012 Members Share Posted April 10, 2012 Is the note about cast members being dumped coming a surprise to anyone? First, the cast is huge. Second, the cast has to be expensive. Dee, Drake, and Missy could not have come back for pennies. Likewise, I do not see Sarah Brown and Ian coming in at union wage rate either.

Webmaster Errol Posted April 10, 2012 Webmaster Share Posted April 10, 2012 I agree. Why immediately look to fire actors instead of learning how to write with what you've got and gradually insert or remove people. Just to do it in order to immediately increase ratings and attention won't help the show get renewed. It'll generate short-term interest, but not long-term viability.
