Members Soapsuds Posted January 24, 2019 Members Share Posted January 24, 2019 I won't miss Olivia. She is a horrific actress. Sad if Lucas leaves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted January 24, 2019 Members Share Posted January 24, 2019 Who’s the sixth? Chloe, Claire, Stefan, Leo, and Tripp aren’t big losses. Rafe can go, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soaplovers Posted January 24, 2019 Members Share Posted January 24, 2019 So they will be there till fall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted January 24, 2019 Members Share Posted January 24, 2019 Yes. They will be there until Fall...of 2029. Pretty soon, DAYS will be reduced to four actors -- but that's okay, since they're down just to one set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members xtr Posted January 24, 2019 Members Share Posted January 24, 2019 I wonder if these possible firings have to do with some characters returning. Someone else on Twitter posted multiple blind items regarding the soaps. (I think they might originally be from SOD): The blind items were that a fan favorite is returning for a limited run, a high profile character is expected to return, a veteran fan fave will get a love interest, and an actor's salary demands are keeping him from getting a job. Some of these sound like they could be about Days. Maybe they are getting rid of some actors to bring some "fan faves" back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted January 24, 2019 Members Share Posted January 24, 2019 Alan tweeted it too, though. Weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members pdm1974 Posted January 24, 2019 Members Share Posted January 24, 2019 Out of all of these, the only one I'm disappointed by is Lucas Addams. I feel he had a tremendous amount of potential in the beginning, but his character got very watered down. So, unfortunately, I can see why they made the cut.

Members Soapsuds Posted January 24, 2019 Members Share Posted January 24, 2019 This! Lucas got the shaft in favor of Robert Scott Wilson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members xtr Posted January 24, 2019 Members Share Posted January 24, 2019 If the news about Nadia being fired, I think that is unfortunate. I really like Chloe. And while I wish the other actors the best if they are fired, I don't think losing their characters would be a big loss. I don't think there is really anything interesting they can do with Tripp/Claire, I don't see much chemistry between them and their characters went downhill in the triangle with Ciara. And while we haven't seen Brandon yet and his version of Stefan, losing Stefan wouldn't be a big loss either. I don't think he's a character that a lot of people care about. And while Leo is entertaining, the show would survive without him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members pdm1974 Posted January 24, 2019 Members Share Posted January 24, 2019 Definitely! I've enjoyed GR's comedic run so far, but I never thought he'd be a very long-term character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted January 24, 2019 Members Share Posted January 24, 2019 And without Stephen Nichols, a lot of his story is gone, but you’d think they’d at least keep him around for a triangle with Ciara and Ben. Still, he’s very expendable If cuts need to be made. Why bother making him John’s son? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members pdm1974 Posted January 24, 2019 Members Share Posted January 24, 2019 I don't think the audience is invested in Stefan at all. The character just never really took off...and did we ever really get his backstory explained? I mean, who the hell was this guy before he came to Salem? Although, with Stefan leaving, I wonder if the show is planning on putting the Dimeras on the backburner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
