Members Wendy Posted April 18, 2019 Members Share Posted April 18, 2019 Vanessa Williams (Valerie) is returning to the show in May. No idea if it is long or short term. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gray Bunny Posted April 18, 2019 Members Share Posted April 18, 2019 (edited) Good! My guess: She'll waltz into Horton Town Square right as Abe and Sheila kiss. That, or she'll waltz into the park bench area right as Abe and Sheila kiss.

Members KMan101 Posted April 18, 2019 Members Share Posted April 18, 2019 (edited) Please register in order to view this content at the edit "this show is so cheap" WORD I think it's a visit, but maybe she'll recur? Feels like a wrap up but I have no spoilers on her return so IDK Bryan Dattilo is also back in May I assume it's just a visit for the Will drama and then the next month for Caroline's passing but IDK. I'm fairly sure he's not still actively taping, but I haven't followed that aspect much lately as my interest in DAYS is waning thin Edited April 18, 2019 by KMan101 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AlexElizabeth Posted April 19, 2019 Members Share Posted April 19, 2019 Probably just back to break it off with Abe for good (are they still sort of together? Abe's hardly ever on so I can't keep track). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted April 19, 2019 Members Share Posted April 19, 2019 Too bad it won't be for something really good...like Valerie waltzing in and announcing she's pregnant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members pdm1974 Posted April 19, 2019 Members Share Posted April 19, 2019 Man...I felt they really missed the boat on Valerie. Vanessa Williams had great chemistry, could actually act, and felt so natural as a fit on the show. I never understood why they never really gave her a chance. I always wanted to see more of her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Chris B Posted April 19, 2019 Members Share Posted April 19, 2019 Such a good actress with soap cred via Soul Food and they waste her! I will tune in for her return but I doubt it’ll be what she deserves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted April 22, 2019 Members Share Posted April 22, 2019 (edited) This is typical Ron, though. He falls for a flashy side character (T-Boz) and dumps another. It was easy to see coming. Sometimes it works, other times, eh. Edited April 22, 2019 by Vee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted April 22, 2019 Members Share Posted April 22, 2019 But if you look at her airtime he hasn't fallen for her either. Even with Elani you can't call it anything other than outright racism IMO. That couple has a fanbase and they get NO screentime or development. Both actors are likely cheap, as are Sheila and Valerie I'm sure, but they don't want to use the black characters as anything more the D tier recurring characters. IMO the writing is so glaring on DAYS for black characters that its obvious they're racist. Even the way they're writing the Asian characters now. They just don't understand how to use minorities and don't care to learn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted April 22, 2019 Members Share Posted April 22, 2019 It very much is. And in this case ... it's not working. At least pairing Sheila and Abe isn't working. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AlexElizabeth Posted April 23, 2019 Members Share Posted April 23, 2019 Yeah, Sheila doesn't really get a ton of air time, but I agree that whatever this is with her and Abe isn't working. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted April 23, 2019 Members Share Posted April 23, 2019 (edited) It isn't. I don't mind them as friends (she should have been his sister). I don't even really care about the age difference. They just have no spark. Vanessa and James complimented each other well. James looks slightly checked out with TBoz, personally ... it gives me vibes of Bonnie and Mickey (but that was FAR worse and a lot more trashy) Edited April 23, 2019 by KMan101 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaysFanatic777 Posted May 4, 2019 Members Share Posted May 4, 2019 You. Nailed. It. Of course it is racism, and it is disgusting. Williams is a fine actress capable of delivering complex and intricate performances. This show is afraid of going that deep with a person of color. I've accepted the fact that it deserves to be cancelled next year, and it will be. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
