DAYS: Actress leaving

LOL!

I like both Molly Burnett and Melanie, but there has been a lot of mishandling of the character. IMO, they softened her and turned her into a romantic heroine too soon. They turned her and Philip into some big love story that it was never supposed to be, and there was zero payoff to her feelings for Nathan. I loved the hardness of the start of the Mel/Dario relationship, and then nothing happened with it. Her bond with Maggie was wonderful, but there was no need to force a blood relation between them (especially since we've hardly seen them together since). I actually liked the little family unit that she, Carly, and Daniel formed, too.

I wish MB all the best in her career.

Yay! This is happening about 3 and 1/2 years too late, but I'm happy the time has finally arrived.

I'm just glad we got to see her reach a point in her "training" that she finally got used to all the bright studio lights... or she invested in Visine. It used to bug me when she'd do that acting thing where you'd think she was suffering from really dry eyes all the time.

Well, her last show is also mine. I'm stepping away as a longtime viewer when she's done. In between favorites of mine leaving (Hi, Molly and Renee!) and others being forced out (hi, Matthew, Sarah, Louise and Crystal!) I just don't think this show has life left in it past next year.

Sad. Like others have said, though, I do believe she has a good career ahead of her in prime time and other things so I'll look forward to seeing her on other shows. Maybe she can guest on CSI: NY once again as a love interest for Eddie Cahill's character.

Hey Carl: Oh, I certainly will. And I sure don't want people to think I'm going to stop watching Days just because Molly's leaving. This has been building (my frustration) with the show for quite some time... just the firings and the all-around mismanagement of the soap. I know I'm not the only longtime viewer fed up with the show. To me, people like Renee and Molly are getting out at the right time.

All the people wondering if they have enough money now to sign Eileen Davidson, forget it. It's like trying to shock a dead person for the 100th time. After a while, the treatment just doesn't work. Sad.

    • Right. Literally for decades, soaps mesmerized their audiences with tales of romance, family conflict, class struggles, and recognizable interpersonal-relationship sagas. We didn't need relentless, heavy violence. We didn't need clones, mad scientists, extra-terrestrials and demon possessions. We didn't need gaggles of plastic himbos and bimbos pushing beloved vets off-screen. We only needed to see people whom we cared about, and the intelligent, moving progression of their lives. Flashy sets, gaudy gimmicks, and high-falutin' hairdos be damned. The characters and the words were important.
    • Absolutely! Brad should've simply moved on from Lunacy. There's no point of freeing her, if you're not going to at least make an attempt at redemption or incorporating her into the fold. It happened with Quinn, who committed quite a few felonies before become the Forrester Matriarch.  Heck, keep Lunacy in prison and have Poppy/Finn discover that she gave birth to twins - 'Sunny' could've come on with a clean slate and still had Sheila/Finn and all the other drama. It certainly couldn't have been worse than what we've witnessed with the destruction of $B.

    • I had totally forgotten that Courtney story. I see Burton was already phoning it in by that point.
    • omg I completely missed that, but now when I see it typed here in your post, it's obvious icky cringe. So now I just checked and Tomas said that -- on May 27 that he likes the author Carl Ivati.  He said it with sort of an accent, so I didn't catch the stupid joke or think about the spelling.   I remember when that aired, that I actually said to myself at the time, "I wonder if that's a Latin American author, and I will have to google him later." And now I see your post, and I see. Well that's cringe, and I feel stupid to have fallen for it.

    • There's a lot you don't need if you have the writing.  You don't even need large casts!  You could make do with a cast of 12-18 actors if the writing is there.
    • Thank you. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with sleeping around if your spouse actually knows about it. She’s just a cheating slut.
    • OMG...Robert Mandan! And Donna Mills is a child. I keep hoping for more of early Ross/Vanessa.
