Members DynamiteKiddo Posted April 18, 2020 Members Share Posted April 18, 2020 I am deadset against KL as Rex (I preferred when it seemed he & Cassie were retconned out of history), but this is a great use of "extended" canvas... I remember this working great with Faye, Anna, and Calliope during Sami/Nicole's babyswitch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted April 18, 2020 Members Share Posted April 18, 2020 (edited) Agreed, I like the 'extended' canvas idea where folks pop in or visit for a while. Meh to him as Rex but I still like the idea. Edited April 18, 2020 by KMan101 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members koos Posted April 19, 2020 Members Share Posted April 19, 2020 Lowder should have been a brand new character if not Brady. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Antoyne Posted April 20, 2020 Members Share Posted April 20, 2020 I like Lowder but I don’t see Rex at all with him in the role. I agree he should’ve just been a new character. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted April 21, 2020 Members Share Posted April 21, 2020 (edited) Yeah. In the DAYS fanfic in my head, he would have been Jeremy Horton and Linsey Godfrey would be Dr. Stephanie Johnson. He could have also been Andrew Donovan or Alex Kiriakis (and either could have been paired with Linsey's Sarah, but in my head Melissa Archer is Sarah). Both have never been on the show other than as kids. Ron made him Rex because he likes the wink wink nudge nudge [!@#$%^&*].

Members Antoyne Posted April 21, 2020 Members Share Posted April 21, 2020 You're right, any other legacy character would've worked. He could still interact with everyone, but him as Rex is just...no. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted April 21, 2020 Members Share Posted April 21, 2020 Yeah it doesn't work. I also never felt Roman and Kate needed kids together. It was Higley pushing her couple. So I really have no use for Rex or Cassie. They should be DiMera's. They could have been Tandre's wards, like how Stefano came back in 1993 with Kristen and Tony. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Antoyne Posted April 21, 2020 Members Share Posted April 21, 2020 I much preferred Cassie and Rex as DiMera's. There wasn't really much time with them left on the show to even establish the family bond with Kate and Roman, and then they were barely mentioned once they left. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted April 21, 2020 Members Share Posted April 21, 2020 (edited) Yep. There was no time to care. Reilly also came in and Cassie was "dead" and Rex was often reduced to dancing in his underwear and becoming the next Austin Reed (dumb and unaware). I don't recall Reilly ever playing them together much as a family at all. I'd also rather see Kate with her dozens of other kids that aren't on the show, like, Philip.

Members KMan101 Posted April 28, 2020 Members Share Posted April 28, 2020 It just feels more 'natural' to me than someone not being on canvas for like 10 years, lol. I do get disappointed when they bring someone back I want around regularly and then they leave but it's still a good idea. Too bad the show has no budget because it could be a lot better but I'll take what I can get at this point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Taoboi Posted April 28, 2020 Members Share Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) I definitely like how people are weaved in and out of plot (like Sami coming soon), but I do wish too that some stayed around and were used right (Chloe, Shawn D).

Members KMan101 Posted April 28, 2020 Members Share Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) Same Chloe is back this fall though, or was supposed to be. Not sure the length and I think Shawn, Belle and Claire as well. They've had and will have a lot of exits so it makes sense to fill those slots, unless they were budgetarily cut and we're stuck with a lopsided canvas. I'd like to know Billy Flynn's status. Mansi is recurring. Heard both are exiting but then it also seems Chad may stick around? Are they going to pair him with Belle again? Chloe? lol Edited April 28, 2020 by KMan101 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
