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

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?

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?

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.”

Just watching now. Siiigh. I'm so excited.

 

Steve Burton returning as Harris ... uh, ok I guess ... lol

 

John being the hit of Paul's PRIDE party was great. So good seeing Christopher Sean.

 

Kristian Alfonso looks fantastic and I loved the tension between Ciara and Hope

 

Steve and Kayla popping in on Stephanie (I like the actress), Joey and hottie Tripp is great. About time the former two were recast.

 

BO! I cried. Sigh. 

 

I'm so excited for her. I hate I spoiled myself and knew she'd be in it. 

 

Jesus

 

I don't mind the "you look different" but yeah DAYS overdoes it.

 

Andrew showed up now in Episode 1. FINALLY ANDREW DONOVAN! And with Paul too ... yay

 

Yesss .... WELCOME BACK FROM THE DEAD MEGAN HATHAWAY! I got chills. The actress has wanted to come back for like forever.

Yasss. Queen Kristen and Eileen Davidson! And LOL with her Real Life Man, right?

    • I’m hoping to start getting to know Vernon better this month. He’s really only been a bunch of noble and good tropes so far. I don’t want him to be taken down the way Ted has been, but it seems he was a long-running Senator and no matter what party you are, lasting longer than twenty years means you’re looking out for you (and not who you’re supposed to be looking out for) most of all. I want to get to know both Vernon and Anita beyond their Dupree posturing. Clifton Davis can sleepwalk handling the kind of material Christopher Bernau and David Lewis handled and I’d like to see more than just a saint.
    • I thought Emily/Hal was a really interesting pairing. And I think KMH played that version of Emily very well! It might not have been what people wanted from Emily, and the writing got pretty gross at the end, but I thought she embodied that character effectively.
    • Don't know if this exactly fits here, but it is connected: Does this abandoned building look familiar? It is one of those explorer videos - and the outside may look VERY familiar if one watched GH in the '70s and '80s!

    • So, I have been in the hospital all week. I am close to being up to date on my soaps. Now I have to go to the Infusion Ctr daily to get IV antibiotics, for 6 weeks. I am frankly exhausted. A hospital is no place to be when you're sick. Hooked up to machines that go beep beep beep all day & night long. Someone wakes you up every hour on the hour for something, either to stick you with needles or to take your gosh-awful blood pressure for the umpteenth time. So, you don't get any sleep. Now I have a central line, upper right chest. After they "installed" it, I said, I am now Borg. They just stared at me. Apparently scifi is not general knowledge. What happened? I have an infection inside my big toe right foot & it burned the skin on my foot. The burned skin is already better. It was like a bad sunburn. The infection inside the toe is the issue. Oral antibiotics won't even get its attention. So, IV antibiotics plus time.

        As Salem bids farewell to John Black on Monday, the "Days" family and fans say a final goodbye to Drake Hogestyn.   From his time as a young man playing baseball in the minor leagues for the New York Yankees to his almost four-decade run as John Black, Drake always did his best. And, while becoming a soap opera icon, he spent almost 40 years at "Days" telling the best stories and taking the younger cast under his wing to make sure they would do their best as well. Thank you, Drake, for the legacy you have left for everyone at "Days." The impact you made on the cast, crew and fans will never be forgotten...and that's a fact.
    • I found an interview with Joseph Breen (Will Jeffries) where he mentions that Reva was put in a coma so Zimmer could go to Hollywood to do a pilot (OMG, if ONLY it had been picked up, LOL) and that Sonni and Josh and Will became a popular with the audience while she was out of commission.  If you want to read the whole thing: https://www.authorsden.com/visit/viewarticle.asp?id=47394 Breen was known for being very candid in interviews, I wish I could find more of them. I seem to recall he made a couple of snarky comments about Zimmer, implying she was not above acting like a diva. Sounded to me like he had a lot of respect for Forbes (who went on to have a very strong and varied career after GL). 
    • I was so confused why Devon was prying into Nicks love life and then it clicked and I remembered they’re brother-in-laws. Shows how little I pay attention to this show anymore. I was like uh? Do these two even know each other this well?     
    • The Bell soaps, B&B and Y&R: cannot watch. If I went by the last time I did I would have to give them both D- but I really don't think it counts when you're not a daily watcher.  DAYS: B+ (Now this is with the knowledge that for years I have given this show a D- because I've been a fan for too long to give it the F it deserved.) GH: A+ (With Korte driving this bus to me the show is so much better! IMO we just had the best NB in so many years I cannot count!) BTG: A solid (Things I love, a few I do not, nothing I hate, still find it in general remarkable.) As always, thanks for doing this thread. I count it. I always look for it & I always post. 
    • Okay, I continue to maintain that what is so good about this particular reveal followed by umbrella storyline is that you can see & understand many different points of view where there is not one bad guy or one 100% right person.  About your stated opinion, that Lois & Gloria did the right thing, you know that this was technically an illegal adoption? For it to have been legal the father, if known, would have to have been informed & have signed off on terminating his own paternal rights. And, of course, it is clear how many people they lied to.  Personally I feel like Lois is going to take the biggest "public" blame with Lulu a close second in the blame category. I am looking forward to a tongue lashing I hope Brook Lynn gives to Gloria. I continue to be more than annoyed with Dante. First his attitude toward Gio with regards to Rocco & a drinking game & its results. Second his attitude toward Lulu. Meanwhile enjoying the show every day!
    • Lois and Gloria did the right thing I feel knowing it was Camila that raised Gio has BL feeling some jealousy No one is saying that Camila was a bad mother to Gio I believe it will be Gio saying that Camila was great to him, thanking Lois and Gloria to get BL to see truth
