Members Winchester91 Posted January 21, 2014 Members Share Posted January 21, 2014 With all the well-publicised exits lately, we are basically reduced to Nick, Abby, Will, and Sonny. Who needs to be brought back or aged from the younger generations to beef up this sector of the cast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted January 21, 2014 Members Share Posted January 21, 2014 That one? It's fine. They need the late 20/early 30 range of characters. Belle. Stephanie. Philip. Shawn. Chelsea. Even Nathan or Jeremy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members beebs Posted January 21, 2014 Members Share Posted January 21, 2014 I'd only bring back Jeremy if either or both of his parents came back. You need to anchor him to his family to make a character like that work. I think where I've felt Theresa has been lacking has been the connection with her parents. When Kim & Shane returned in September, I felt like they needed to be on the show more permanently. The family dynamic with them was great, and I would like it explored more. Other than that, I say bring in Sonny's brothers, and Andrew. I do wish there were more people of colour on the canvas. It's too bad they botched Cameron so badly. He was really needed as a change from The Land of Bleach that Salem's become. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted January 21, 2014 Members Share Posted January 21, 2014 IA with this. Any combination of them will work for me and I will throw in Chloe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted January 21, 2014 Members Share Posted January 21, 2014 Shawn really should have been brought in when go left for hope. Her issues with Ciara are good, but Shawn could give her a real purpose. ESP if he had returned without belle and then belle came a year later and they didn't get back together and were at odds. Creating an issue for marlena and hope as a minor story. I would be so down for Justin and Adrinnes kids to come on. Stephanie too. Them all along with jen JJ and Abby sonny would form a great central family made up of vets and legacy characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted January 21, 2014 Members Share Posted January 21, 2014 Where are Belle and Shawn? I always thought they would be the next generation leads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted January 21, 2014 Members Share Posted January 21, 2014 Nobody wanted to write them anymore. Honestly. That's what happened and they were written out and never brought back and very rarely mentioned. I think higley wrote them out at the start of her run and nobody's bothered to even try and bring them back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members chicklitsandfantasies Posted January 21, 2014 Members Share Posted January 21, 2014 Become? Hasn't it pretty much always been like that? The entire time I've watched DAYS other than Lexi's cheating stories canvas was pretty much white with a few tokens sprinkled in who were mostly in their own story bubble. And I really don't consider the latino characters latino when they can't even hire latinos for the role and culture is barely mentioned(and when it is it feels forced).

Members Nate4 Posted January 21, 2014 Members Share Posted January 21, 2014 I would include Theresa and JJ in that age group too. I also think they need to focus on the late 20s / early 30s. Bring back Belle and Shawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members beebs Posted January 21, 2014 Members Share Posted January 21, 2014 Well, relatively speaking, anyway. At least they used to TRY...kind of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jo.frank88 Posted January 21, 2014 Members Share Posted January 21, 2014 Belle and Shawn NEED to be on this show! I would also be contacting JK Johnson again about reprising Phillip and I would be finding a Jeremy Horton recast STAT! It's a shame Jeremy is such an underused character in this show's history.. the son of Mike Horton needs to be front burner! Maybe Jeremy and Shawn could both be cops and be cop partners who have each others' back.. I mean, with Jeremy Horton - they could pretty much write the character into anything they want too!! He could be a nice/good guy, a jerk, a criminal, whatever! He is so vaguely established.. I know his short stint in 07 he was a jerk.. but that was 7 years ago and was for such a short stint that the audience would really accept anything. IMO that would be a writer's dream - a legacy character who we all vaguely know but who you have TOTAL FREEDOM to write pretty much however you want (much like the character of JJ prior to Casey starting). At least if I were a writer, that would be my dream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gray Bunny Posted January 22, 2014 Members Share Posted January 22, 2014 I would stick to Hortons and Bradys and pepper in peripheral characters from there. But for God's sakes, don't introduce them as a physical therapist who dresses as a librarian. How many months has Chrishell been on and I still could give two f.cks about her. The sons of Justin & Adrienne are a total blank slate, but I wouldn't be interested in beefing up the Kiriakis family any moreso right now. (I still don't even know how Justin is related to Victor.)

Members ~bl~ Posted January 22, 2014 Members Share Posted January 22, 2014 Justin is Victor's nephew and was his protege many years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Winchester91 Posted January 22, 2014 Author Members Share Posted January 22, 2014 I'd like to see Sonny have more family in the show! He has always been isolated, considering JJ and Abby probably see themselves more as part of the Horton family as well as Adrienne/Justin aren't around a significant amount.

Members slick jones Posted January 22, 2014 Members Share Posted January 22, 2014 Justin is the son of Alexander and Catherine Kiriakis. He named his first son, Alexander by Anjelica Devereaux after his father. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
