It has to be Ken Corday. On a side note, if not for E.J. Lumi would've remained the central supercouple. The rape mess aside, the chemistry with Sweeney was great with both performers. They could've milked that triangle with those two couples for years if done properly, but I don't know of a single thing DAYS has done completely properly since, what, the early '90s?

 

Since James Scott has apparently gone off to live in a commune or something and renounced show business, they should ice E.J. for good (or recast him later) and put Lucas back with Sami permanently. They were always great. But again, Corday seems to hate Lucas.

I think Corday hates Bryan Dattilo.  Either that, or BD has recurring personal issues that make keeping him on long-term next to impossible.

 

Frankly, I don't think Alison Sweeney has chemistry with anyone.  But, if the fans need and want Lumi, then I think giving them Lumi is the least they can do.

Ron always loves doing that sort of thing with offscreen partners because he feels it gives the audience closure on beloved couples. He used to regularly suggest on GH that Robert and Holly were back together even though neither actor would be onscreen at the same time; others too. I don't mind it at times or with older couples, but with Sami still in play and James Scott clearly not at all interested, they should end it.

I don't like the Lani idea, but I do agree with you about Nicole and Chloe. He never had any chemistry with them. His time with Nicole worked well originally, but that's because it was the making of her character. However, it's probably all a moot point anyway because I feel like he'll only be on contract temporarily for whatever the upcoming story is/however long Ali Sweeney sticks around. Using him as a character in his own right doesn't seem likely to me.

      Another World Discussion Thread

      By Xanthe · Posted

      Charles Grant first appeared as Evan in September 1988. I was surprised to come across this item from December 1985, almost 3 years earlier: "Lots of action behind the scenes at Another World . . . I have bad news for fans of Christopher Holder (Peter Love). He will be leaving the show in the new year. I have heard that the producers are recasting the part and are also seeing actors for new roles. One of the main characters this spring will be Marlee [sic] and Victoria's father. The producers have been talking to Charles Flohe (John "Preacher" Emerson, Edge Of Night) about another new character to be featured. I will fill you in on the results as soon as I know." It seems obviously too early for anyone to have been planning to introduce Evan Frame. Based on the context he's not being considered as a recast of Peter. Maybe they were considering him for the character that turned out to be Neal, who started around the same time as Marcus Smythe as Peter?

      BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      That was my point really. These anniversary party scenes are the first ones, and now they won't be able to use them (meaning these actual scenes, as aired, with OG Ted). They can recreate them but I doubt they will spring for all the extras to come back and film and recreate everything, so it will be more like tight closed in shots of Ted with one or two other actors, or snippets of Leslie's original speech where Ted wasn't visible. It would be hard to recapture the original energy of the scenes are as they were filmed in their full context. I just think that's too bad, but maybe they will prove me wrong. I never really saw what was so off in his portrayal to warrant a recast, anyway, so that colors my perception as well.

      Yeah, and quite honestly, are there really that many scenes that are flashback-worthy at this point in the run?

      I know at one point they were on Hulu & i-Tunes. I just checked it on JustWatch.com & it indicates 1 season on Prime Video & on AppleTV. Have fun!

      That era is so weird...they made a big deal out of all three of those characters and then they just..disappeared! Not that I am complaining. We talk about the bad out of character writing for Alex under JFP..but this was one example that may have led them to write her being so obsessive with Nick.  WHY would Alex accept Flock of Seagulls guy as her brother? They had her in one scene (setting up the Alan return) complain that Alan abandoned her...she blackmailed him into leaving town and she had been angry at him for helping Brandon with Lujack and also using Spaulding for that dumb dreaming death thing. Endless scenes of her with Simon, I can't believe Bev wasn't bored to death! I would also add Pam writing the scene where she lets Ms. Sally die in front of her to protect Alan and  the writing for Alex could be screwy even before JFP.

      Thank you for clearing that up. I wasn't watching GL regularly yet at that point, but seems to me I should have remembered the big wedding after Leslie's death (which I do remember) described in the profile. Is there a web archive of SOD summaries, or are referring to your own personal collection?

      I was bummed that 2.0 ended because Mcpherson (headwriter) had really set up some interesting stories and we never got to find out where the stories would go once they resumed production on 'season 2'. I remembered the EP (Ginger Smith) and a lot of the stars gave a lot of credit to McPherson being able to come in on very short notice and come up with stories/plots (I think it was a very short turnaround time of a few weeks).  It was nice that she got to redeem herself after her year long Days stint was not well reviewed/liked.
