Beyond Salem Chapter 2 Discussion Thread

[John]

I do wonder if they could get CS and even CM to do a one year contract. Id love to see Paul and Andrew and Will and Sonny on Days

However If using these characters on just spinoffs on Peacock means they get good story, Ill take them just on Beyond Salem

[te.]

Plus, Ron would be way too tempted to bring in young Tom and Alice onto the main show as a part of DiMera time travel or something. Do we really want Tom and Alice screwed up by him?

He so would.

Ron would have Intern Tom Horton giving bjs for grades, and Alice would be gatekeeper at a dogfighting barn with two abortions under her belt.  It would be very unwatchable. (to everyone but himself...)

Back to the Future on a budget of loose change and lint.

My Main Fear is that it will be a Part 3 To this, i would rather they reverted the budget on the soap for more believable sets and things Like That, Except the at least we get to See Eileen Davidson at work with her 5 characters, what kind crazy thing can they create for the next one?

[Michael]

They get a completely separate licensing fee from Peacock for Beyond Salem. If they aren't doing a separate miniseries, there's no money to redirect to the main show.

No thanks

Oh thanks, still they should reevaluate it

[Joseph]

Thinking better Since The Beyond Salem installments are about tying loose ends from the show's history, maybe the next one could be about the 4 Marlenas

Actor Colton Little chatted about starring in the “Days of Our Lives” limited series “Beyond Salem: Chapter 2” on Peacock.

“Doing ‘Beyond Salem: Chapter 2’ was a ride and it still is a ride,” he said with a chuckle. “It’s the biggest project that I’ve done so far and the most responsibility. It is such a treat to see the fan reaction and how everybody is really enjoying it.”

Little played the role of Andrew Donovan opposite Christopher Sean, who reprised his role as Paul Narita. “Andrew allowed me to explore a more adventurous side of myself,” he said. “I like being adventurous but I’m pretty cautious in my real life, and he is more ready to go at any point. I’m a little bit more measured in my personal life.”

“Christopher Sean was a dream to work with,” he admitted. “Christopher truly is a gift to the entertainment industry and to the ‘Days of Our Lives’ family. He was extremely kind and patient with me. He really took me under his wing and he was a complete gentleman and somebody I am proud to call a friend now.”

The synopsis of “Beyond Salem: Chapter 2” is as follows: In an epic, action-packed tale that spans the entire globe, from Monte Carlo to Hong Kong, beloved characters from “Days of our Lives” once again go “Beyond Salem” as they trade the comforts of home for an adventure of a lifetime!

The digital age

On being an actor in the digital age, Little said, “It’s a double-edged sword. Although there are more opportunities and jobs, it is sometimes difficult because the quality of jobs is not always there. We have so many shows coming and going all of the time. I hope that there is more quality content being presented.”

For young and aspiring actors, he said, “Be yourself. It sounds so simple but there is magic in that. If you try to be something that you are not, people are going to see through the fake version of yourself and you would have to come to terms with that eventually.”

Regarding the title of the current chapter of his life, he said, “Temperance.” “It is time for me to reflect and enjoy the opportunity that I got with ‘Beyond Salem’,” he said. “I also want to stay present in my personal life and remember that every day is a new day, and a new page in a book. You just need to turn the page and keep working.”

Zoom fan event

On Saturday, September 17, 2022, he will be a part of Spectrum Celebrity Events’ virtual fan event. For more information on this Zoom event, click here. “I am so excited, this is my first fan event so I am so pumped,” he said. “It is also great to know that a part of the proceeds helps True Colors United.”

He had great words about being a part of Brad Everett Young’s Dream Loud campaign, which works to preserve art and music programs in school. “Brad is so great, he is so much fun,” he exclaimed. “I was proud that he asked me to do it and it is really important for me to support the arts.”

Little defined success as “being able to wake up every day excited about what you get to do.”

For his fans, he concluded, “Thank you, the best is yet to come, and thank you for opening your arms to Andrew and for making it such a welcoming experience.”
