I cant remember a time when another network has dropped the name of another soap (even though cancelled) when promoting a new star.

I see Tomlin trying to replace Sami with her. I think MA is very overated. She has serious eye roll when she acts and never been very impressed. She was popular on OLTL.

How does one get a Sami vibe from that?

What's with Eric's jacket? Every time I see that I swear they must have pulled it out of Chris Koshiteck or Neil Curtis' old wardrobe or something.

I could swear there's a promo out there where Judi mentions GL, but if not this may be closest:

She's no Kelly Sullivan.

She's a hell of a better.actress than your "diva" Kelly Sullivan

Is/was Melissa Archer really popular enough to warrant a promo like this?! They make it sound like she's a huge megastar. Now, if it was Robin Strasser or Erika Slezak who was joining DAYS I could understand it, but Melissa Archer....?

It's not like they have much else to promo.

Promo: " Dead Woman Walkin'...Chrishell Stause continues for five more months...This week on Days of Our Lives...."

Interesting. I've never seen those before. It's almost like one network taunting the other.

That's actually low-key compared to some of the ones they did for Santa Barbara that had things like Robin Mattson saying, "I like hospitals in general, but..."

MA is nowhere near the league of Robin Strasser or Erika Slezak but she was on a show for ten years....and she has loads of fans. I can see why Days is trying to appeal to them. Days needs all the eyeballs it can get.

Besides...didn't Days do a promo for Kassie DePaiva joining? Why shouldn't MA get one too?

Can you really call it a return to daytime when the only reason she left was cause her show got cancelled?

Most of her acting has been on the web shows, so I guess she is.

I think we'd use that language for most stars from those cancelled soaps.
