Actor Greg Vaughan is once again returning to “Days of our Lives” as Eric Brady, and this time he’s back for a more permanent stay beginning Friday, April 15 when Eric has an encounter with his ex-wife, Nicole (Arianne Zucker).

In a conversation with Vaughan, posted on the show’s official YouTube channel, Zucker sat down with the actor to discuss his return and why this time it’s for good. Citing the desire to work as one reason, Vaughan said, “Making a few brief moments over the course of the last couple of years since I really left, just that window of opportunity was just like, ‘Man, what are you doing?’ ‘Hey, you want to come back for six months?’ And then I think there is a lot of unresolved issues between Eric and family, and Nicole, obviously.”

As for how it feels to be back, Vaughan notes it’s like he never left. “I think it’s always so comfortable to be here and to be amongst people – because we’ve always had the ability to come and go, or explore opportunities or make changes in our life, and just being back here it feels good.”

In the latest issue of TV Guide, on newsstands now, the magazine teases Eric and Nicole’s encounter, revealing that Nicole has a nightmare that she and her boyfriend Rafe (Galen Gering) are shot by Rafe’s vengeful ex, Ava (Tamara Braun) which only makes her seeing Eric that more interesting.

Vaughan last appeared on the soap during the Christmas episodes when his character was on hand to help exorcize Marlena (Deidre Hall) who had been possessed by the Devil.

Watch Vaughan’s chat with Zucker below.

    • I tried following the news in Los Angeles at https://laist.com (independent public radio and news) They had up-to-the minute accurate info during the wildfires in January. There's no video, no impact to my mind as to what's happening. Trying other outlets, to get the truth, but it's hard.  
    • That's a bit murky since that happened during a writers' strike. Assuming Kristen Marie had a 2-year contract she left about when her contract would have expired and Sharlene and Josie showed up right before that. Lemay was officially credited as HW from September 1988 but it seems very probable that his anticipated tenure influenced events that happened during the strike which started in April. 
    • I've seen so many posters over the years who are bright, creative, well-versed in soap history, and who care deeply about the integrity of the genre. I'd put the shows' chances in their hands a lot faster than I would allow any of the "usual suspects" to take control of the dramas they've already helped decimate. When I returned to university in the 1980s, I created a bible for a new soap and presented it in my screenwriting class. It was in reaction to how badly I saw the network shows being butchered at the time. The creative process was thrilling; a total joy, and I still smile when I remember the positive feedback I received from the professor and my fellow students. I was used to seeing written commentary from professors on my work. This one wrote me a long, complimentary note on the final page of the bible, but also graded it 97%, A+. I was beaming ear to ear for days!

    • Thanks. I do wonder if Rose was meant to be more given the caliber of actress they hired. I remembered Sara and Peggy staying longer as they were still on when Soapnet started their repeats. I wonder if that was part of the reason they brought Jake's brother in. 
    • Speculation about Missy Reeves' potential evolution on basic civil rights doesn’t change my opinion of her. My view is shaped entirely by her public social media presence—which I find unpalatable—and I have no interest in learning more beyond that. I simply liked Jennifer’s hair and dress. That’s as far as my admiration goes.

    • Cheryl was gone before Lemay came back but I agree with your thinking that he would rather a character from a family he introduced to the show than a family he did not originate.  I remember reading somewhere in the early 90's probably after DS left as writer, their was an either a writer or a producer who made a comment that their intent was bring the McKinnon family back to AW.  Would have made sense for the newer viewers from the 80's.  Much like Lemay's attempt to bring the Frames back from his writing in the 70's in his 1988 return
    • DePriest left in January 1988. According to the AWHP, Rose last appeared nearly a year before in February 1987 while both Sara and Peggy appeared as late as October 1987.
    • Annie was not brought in as an antagonist for Reva. Reva wasn’t even on the canvas when Annie first appeared in late 1994. 
    • The speculation……….very entertaining. 
    • I had forgotten that several Days stars came out strong against Melissa. Good for them!
