Members DRW50 Posted April 4, 2016 Members Share Posted April 4, 2016 I know what you mean. You said it best. I just hope this won't be like bringing on Marilyn McCoo's daughter and doing nothing with it. It's too bad they can't just bring Tina Andrews back.

Members Gray Bunny Posted April 4, 2016 Members Share Posted April 4, 2016 I totally forgot about that. That's just how forgettable Lani is. All this family bonding off-screen is reminiscent of Paul Rauch's Guiding Light in the late 90's when all the action apparently happened off-screen (Buzz/Jenna, David/Vicki, Matt/Vanessa, etc.) for characters they didn't really want to write for.

Members cassadine1991 Posted April 4, 2016 Members Share Posted April 4, 2016 Wonder who they'll cast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted April 4, 2016 Members Share Posted April 4, 2016 Tina Andrews open to returning as Valerie http://www.soapoperadigest.com/content/tina-andrews-open-days-return Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted April 4, 2016 Members Share Posted April 4, 2016 In a perfect world, one where soaps are progressive and DAYS is being handled by people who know what they are doing, this would lead to a re-introduction of David Banning as well. That way, the show could restart the David/Valerie romance, in a story about former lovers, kept apart by small-town bigotry, reuniting at last. It would be a sensitive, mature love story that would help illustrate how far we, and certainly the soaps, have come since the 1970's. I'm just saying.

Members slick jones Posted April 4, 2016 Members Share Posted April 4, 2016 Abe/Maxine decided to just be friends, if I recall. I think they were in the park or Square. I could be wrong. Kinda like all those scenes with Kayla and Abe having all those scenes. I love this idea, @Khan Please register in order to view this content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted April 4, 2016 Members Share Posted April 4, 2016 Maxine/Daniel apologist, thankfully, hasn't been on screen since July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members beebs Posted April 4, 2016 Members Share Posted April 4, 2016 Now, I know for a FACT Dena been stealing my ideas! LOLSince she's only on recurring, and none of the characters she interacted with are on much anymore except Marlena, I'm curious how they'll tie her in or keep her around.But knowing DAYS, she'll just be a doctor in the hospital that Marlena talks to once in awhile while making eyes at Abe. I'd LOVE for them to build a family around her character, but it won't happen, I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kylefish76 Posted April 5, 2016 Members Share Posted April 5, 2016 If not Tina, How bout Debbi Morgan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted April 5, 2016 Members Share Posted April 5, 2016 It would be nice if Tina did return to play the role. David could be brought back in the form of Gregg Marx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted April 5, 2016 Members Share Posted April 5, 2016 Khan is right that it would actually be a fantastic idea and would establish a very different kind of potential 'tentpole couple' for DAYS. Which is why DAYS will never do it. AMC 2.0 knew when to roll the dice and make the Hubbards the tentpoles. That was change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted April 5, 2016 Members Share Posted April 5, 2016 Of course, I wouldn't be opposed to Debbi Morgan being cast as nuValerie. But...I dunno...I'd like to see whether DAYS could land an actress outside of daytime for this role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted April 5, 2016 Members Share Posted April 5, 2016 Maybe someone from the 70's like BerNadette Stanis (Thelma from Good Times) ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted April 5, 2016 Members Share Posted April 5, 2016 That is so random,yet encouraging that someone has some interest into dipping into Day's history. There have been many missed opportunities over the years where past characters could have been brought back,even for minor things. When Abe first came on he was briefly involved with Val (Dianne Sommerfield) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted April 5, 2016 Members Share Posted April 5, 2016 Nah. Outside of GT, she hasn't done much; and even when she was on GT, she wasn't particularly good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
