I don't see the point of giving Sami any sort of long term love interest if Alison is just going to swoop in and out with these short stints. Even with the deal she just signed, it sounds like she will only air for 2021 and then she leaves again. That's not worthwhile or really long term for anyone currently on canvas, especially on a soap. Writers need to be able to build stories, relationships and connections that last and endure past a year to keep the plot going. 

 

Her doing these Eileen Davidson based runs does favors for no one. The best this could do is set up a SORAS introduction with her kids Allie, Johnny and Sydney and use that as a jump off point to reintroduce them into greater stories. The only concern I have with that is that these kids will have virtually no anchor to the show, unless this new recasted EJ is supposed to be that for them in Salem?

Yeah...better three months ahead than 3 years. Good enough time to see what is working and not working writing-wise.

That said...I'm curious to know who it is as well. But after I talked to my co-worker who is a BIIIIIG EJami fan, I can see why they are keeping it under wraps.

since Sarah's leaving, they're probabbly gonna have "Xander" exit and the actor play the recast of EJ. lmao I've been saying for years they should have just done that, especially when Sami came back. 

 

or, maybe, times being so touch... they might be able to pull Nathan Parsons... lol

Yeah they definitely should have done that in 2014. Like Serena should have been Sarah. Xander should have been EJ. I'd also argue Aidan should have been a recast Mike Horton but I live in a different world  lol

    • There has been some confusion about Michael & facial burns. Please see this post: https://bsky.app/profile/shallotpeel.bsky.social/post/3lqkrryu54226 I've chosen to put this here instead of the Classic Thread because it is now with the appearance of recast Michael that this has come up. Different places online, including at least one podcast, remarks have been made about how remarkable it is that he is without facial scarring. Other fans say it was clear from the first that he did not have facial burns. What is included in this post is 2 screengrabs where you can see his face at the hospital & a very quick edit of that day in the hospital. 
    • Put me in the LOVE KMH camp. As a poster alluded to above, her detractors seem to come from people who first experienced the 80s Emily actress. And that's often the case with soaps, myself included. I enjoy the original actor so much that I just never take to the recast. However, KMH played Emily far longer than the original - for almost 20 years - and when she had great material, she was great. I get the sense she didn't like playing the whiny oh-woe-is-me Emily which was all the material she got from about 1996 until she took over the Intruder in late '99/early '00 and got to play a stronger kiss-ass woman who didn't care what anyone thought of her. (Some would call that a bitch but, if a man was in that role, he'd just be called a smart and savvy businessman.) Her relationship with Hal was great. The transformation was done realistically and I thoroughly enjoyed those years the best out of all. Once the writers decided to break up those two, they went back to writing Emily half the time as whiny and pathetic. I preferred when the writers made her stronger.
    • Hahaha - I do. I've always been the type, though, that can't miss anything. I get FOMO, so I'll not skip episodes or fast forward anything. There are only a few TV shows I've dropped because they got so bad vs. sticking it out to the end.  The promise that GL 1997 is better is what keeps me going. I especially want to see the fallout of Blake's lie about her twins and then Annie's descent which I believe won Watros's Emmy.
    • Rita's rape is an episode i constantly search on YouTube hoping one day that it will show up. I always feel like I may have seen it, but I was only 6 at the time and can never figure any of the things I have vague recollection of

    • The rape was in 1979 after they were married. Blake was the result of Holly cheating with him while she was married to Ed. I believe she was born in 1975.
