Members AlexElizabeth Posted July 21, 2016 Members Share Posted July 21, 2016 DAYS is seeking a gorgeous African American male in this late 20s to play the role of Levi. Levi is described as “everything a woman could want in a man — he is funny, quick-witted, protective, intelligent and makes an honest living working hard and loving what he does. He can come off as edgy not angry.” The recurring role — with possibility of contract — will begin taping in late August, to air in 2017. http://www.soapoperadigest.com/content/days-casting-new-role-12/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted July 21, 2016 Members Share Posted July 21, 2016 I'm sure the character will somehow be white or written out before he even airs. This show is in Hospice now, and I'd like the suffering to end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gray Bunny Posted July 21, 2016 Members Share Posted July 21, 2016 The next Cameron. Just a suggestion: Make him Abe's never-before-mentioned nephew, the son of Jonah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AlexElizabeth Posted July 21, 2016 Author Members Share Posted July 21, 2016 I completely forgot that this character ever existed. That will be their next plan to save Days... bringing back Jay Leno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted July 21, 2016 Members Share Posted July 21, 2016 so he can get as much airtime as Lani? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gray Bunny Posted July 21, 2016 Members Share Posted July 21, 2016 That totally went over my head at first. I forgot about the original Cameron. I only remembered Devious Maids-Cameron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members NothinButAttitude Posted July 22, 2016 Members Share Posted July 22, 2016 I'd prefer for DAYS to not even try anymore. Just don't. Don't do us any favors by casting us (African Americans that is). This show does nothing but use Black characters as window dressing before tossing them aside. Poor James Reynolds (Abe), who is a longstanding cast member can't even get a story anymore. Hell, when was the last time he had one? They don't do anything with Theo. Lani was a flop and then tossed out the door ... enough! Stick to the WASPy characters if that's all they know how to write. I'm over begging these shows to diversify their casts.

Members Gray Bunny Posted July 22, 2016 Members Share Posted July 22, 2016 No, bring back the original! I'm sure he can't *still* be stripping in WeHo, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted July 22, 2016 Members Share Posted July 22, 2016 They get a few scenes with Abe and are then fired! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted July 22, 2016 Members Share Posted July 22, 2016 Exactly. And it'll be scenes doing nothing but being supporting to all the other characters on the canvas. I know James Reynolds still wishes Generations was on. At least there, he got showcased and was never in the background. That show was so ahead of it's time.

Members Cheap21 Posted July 22, 2016 Members Share Posted July 22, 2016 If B&B can change after never even having blacks in any significant capacity, surely this one can too right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted July 22, 2016 Members Share Posted July 22, 2016 Hell no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gray Bunny Posted July 22, 2016 Members Share Posted July 22, 2016 Well, they can't write for their white characters, they stereotype the latinos, they don't use their single gay... they pretty much can't write. Period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
