Corday could just use Alison Sweeney to jumpstart his future hit, "Net Soaps."

I don't know if you meant this as sarcasm but it would actually be a good idea. Sweeney is one of the few remaining soap stars with a crossover following. It would be smart to leverage that.

I meant it as sarcasm, but as I was writing it I had the same thought.

There is no need to do that. Reserve Sami for AS inevitable return. No "real GreenLee" [!@#$%^&*] pls. What they need is a character to replace the same type and position on the canvas.

Have you seen her lately? I don't agree.

And it's hard to spin off a show that seems so unstable.

I agree Martha looks the same age as Alison Sweeney who is only ten months older than Martha in real life

Grandma Belle Martha Madison does not skew younger. Her Belle looked like she was Phillip's mother!

Wonder if Serena is a code name as well?

Serena... Samantha...

Ive never read anyone call her that

ok.

AS has already stated that she's coming back for visits, etc. I believe Serena is Sarah - no way she's not Maggie's daughter. I'm surprised they kept this a secret for more than two months. If she debuts Dec. 5 and started filming in June - it fits the five month delay. I do wonder if it would help DAYS to take two- to three-months off and resume the same production schedule so that they have a little more flex to adjust storylines. I'm truly looking forward to MA joining the cast.

That's a Pokémon!!! Spinda or パッチール (Patcheel)

I've read recently online that Diana Colville's mother was named Serena. Could she be a long lost daughter with John?

But seriously, I hope she's Sarah.

Well, Maggie did just bring up Sarah. If we get more mentions, I'm betting it's her for sure.

Perish the thought that we get anymore John kin. Seeing DH in a coma has been the closest he'll ever get to an Emmy nomination. Let's keep it that way. It's a win-win - Drake gets paycheck and we don't have to endure his performances.

It would be great for MA to be Sarah. A valuable Horton connection with a reason to hate Eve. A win-win situation.

Days recently shut down production for one month, June 20 - July 21.

If they have any sense she will be Sarah Horton. She was always one of my choices for that role. But this is DAYS, so she's probably Rob Wilson's long-lost sister.

I remember both JackPeyton and I said many months ago that the only adequate way to replace a force like Sami is to split her role into multiple other characters - some more of a spunky ingenue, some more scheming, whatever. Melissa could do one of those very well. She has the same energy as Alison Sweeney in some ways, which is why both of them carried their shows for years (but only Ali Sweeney got the credit for hers).

As for Belle, I think Bree Williamson is just the right age - Martha Madison always looked way too old. But I don't want or need Bree Williamson on DAYS.

Bree Williamson was a hot sex symbol at oltl
