Members Khan Posted January 31, 2022 Members Share Posted January 31, 2022 See, THAT is why I HATE soaps reusing actors for different, unrelated roles. It's hard enough to get jaded viewers to suspend disbelief and immerse themselves emotionally in the stories you tell. Recycling actors like that makes the task twenty times more difficult. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members koos Posted January 31, 2022 Members Share Posted January 31, 2022 (edited) Well, it worked for Joe Mascolo. Edited January 31, 2022 by koos 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted January 31, 2022 Members Share Posted January 31, 2022 And it worked for John Aniston, too. Yes, I know. I still think it's a bad practice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members koos Posted January 31, 2022 Members Share Posted January 31, 2022 I just looked it up, and I couldn't find any info about Mascolo being on Days before he was Stefano. Was it just Aniston and I mixed them up? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted January 31, 2022 Members Share Posted January 31, 2022 Maybe. I thought I had read somewhere that Joe Mascolo had appeared on DAYS back in the '70's, long before he was Stefano DiMera. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members koos Posted January 31, 2022 Members Share Posted January 31, 2022 I thought I even saw a picture. But, it may have been Aniston. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members janea4old Posted January 31, 2022 Members Share Posted January 31, 2022 (edited) William Christian appeared as a U/5 in that clip on 1/30/2018. And continued in same role, now credited roles as a "minion" for four episodes in February 2018. He even appeared in the credits as "Bill Christian" instead of his professional "William Christian" name. The Days casting department may have assumed that the viewers wouldn't remember his 5-episode run four years ago. But some remember him because of recognizing him back then as AMC's Derek Frye. And of course the casting department didn't think about the "on this day" twitter accounts remembering everything, LOL.

Members Antoyne Posted February 4, 2022 Members Share Posted February 4, 2022 I certainly didn't remember him appearing 4 years ago. I doubt most people do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
