Members DRW50 Posted April 17, 2017 Members Share Posted April 17, 2017 Will this be all about Ejami again? I doubt it will be about her dead son. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rlj Posted April 17, 2017 Members Share Posted April 17, 2017 There are YT videos of actors screentesting for EJ, so I ain't surprised she is returning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RavenWhitney Posted April 17, 2017 Members Share Posted April 17, 2017 I don't think they are screen testing US actors to play a British EJ; word is that the guy they tested is for Chad replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted April 17, 2017 Members Share Posted April 17, 2017 I'm glad she'll be back. But she's shooting in May and June? God, she won't be on until 2039! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members rlj Posted April 17, 2017 Members Share Posted April 17, 2017 On the voids I saw, the actors had an accent. Abed really accents, race, hair color and so on are not canon re a recast (ie NuRidge on B&B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted April 17, 2017 Members Share Posted April 17, 2017 LMAO!! I'm not at all surprised. When Ron was announced she was the first person that came to mind. I don't know why she hasn't directed any episodes at DAYS. She's done GH. If she's taping in May that means she'll be on for November sweeps. I better see her wake up from a dream and Will be alive. And Bo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted April 17, 2017 Members Share Posted April 17, 2017 I'm not at all surprised that Sweeney has come back. The show needs Sami, I'm sure the character was at the top of Ron's list and whatever money Corday had to pay her is worth it. However, despite Sweeney wanting to play Sami has a heroine with EJ, it ruined the character. I'm all for character evolution and we saw a great deal of evolution with Sami (particularly her dynamic with Kate/Lauren Koslow who has always been one of the best screen partners for Sweeney) but taking away Sami's claws and leaving her to being EJ's cheerleader was just pathetic.

Members edgeofnik Posted April 17, 2017 Members Share Posted April 17, 2017 Completely agree taking away Sami's strength and being a catalyst was a terrible decision. She may make me come back for the 20th Annual "Plan to Save DAYS!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted April 17, 2017 Members Share Posted April 17, 2017 Remember the spoiler I posted a while back with Smith and Massey having lunch at the studio? And Smith posting a July episode with location and those appearing on that episode scratched out? It could be tied to Sweeney's return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted April 17, 2017 Members Share Posted April 17, 2017 Interesting ... forgot about that. This show tapes so far in advance ... ugh LOL Sami as a heroine was awful. It's just as bad as Nicole the poor me heroine we have now. Awful awful awful. Sami had her claws back a bit towards the end after the EJ/Abby affair but it got cut short and then her brief return for the 50th was all about chasing EJ and Will's death was a blip on the radar. Sweeney needs to understand that Sami as a bitch (but with understandable, albeit slightly crazy motivations) is what is best for the character. She can get her boring heroine on with her Hallmark movies. She's never been the strongest actress and so heroine just doesn't work for her; bitch works better.

Members DaytimeFan Posted April 17, 2017 Members Share Posted April 17, 2017 Exactly. This is so, so right. Sweeney is not a strong enough actress to make heroine work. Sami as the bitch (with motivations that the audience has always understood) is the only way the character should be written. To do otherwise is to betray the character's origins.
