DAYS: Peter Porte joins the show

To be fair, @Soapsuds, you don't need to know how to act to act in a Hallmark movie or TV series.  You just need to know how throw snowballs and bake gingerbread convincingly.

CM, as in Chandler Massey?

Chandler deserves way better than eternally constipated Peter Porte.  And I'm not a fan of Chandler's.

First, they cast him; then, they give him a character I still don't know beans about; then, they bring him back, just to pair him with the girl who bumped off Laura Horton!?

Ron's got balls.

A "get" in terms of hiring for TV and film is a person who is well known with a following of sorts (like a social media influencer -- gag) or an award-winning talent highly sought after by various TV/film productions for their services. Quality has nothing to do with it, per se.

The best example is Corn Kid on B&B earlier this week. While several months too late, the original TikTok video of him garnered nearly 11 million views which means people who don't watch B&B could potentially tune in to see the Corn Kid because his appearance was promoted. Quality had nothing to do with it.

Quality never has anything to do with B&B.  In fact, whenever B&B sees quality approaching, it runs for its' life, like the lone survivor in a "Friday the 13th" movie.

It should also be noted that since Peacock got that Hallmark deal, getting Peter Porte on the show aligns well with that and allows for further synergy between those movies and DAYS. I'm not surprised they brought him back based on that alone; it's good marketing.

If DAYS could ever hope for a real "get", it would be Jennifer Aniston doing a one-day role during the same time they honor Victor Kiriakis / John Aniston.  I don't suppose Julia Roberts would want to drag her ass to Horton Town Square to stand next to that pitiful "Julia's Flowers" stand that's collecting dust.

It would make more sense for him to be back in Salem if Carly Manning or Frankie Brady were still around since they are Von Leuschners or even the Alamain's.   Unless they are planning on bringing Crystal Chappell or Billy Warlock back, I just cannot get too thrilled about this person coming on with no ties to the canvas and why Kate???  It would make more sense if he had Vivian kidnapped and called Stefan for ransom!!

    • Terrific ideas -- but would Mike and Nancy's great-grandson bear the last name Dallas?  Yuck.  Any way we could make him a Karr?    And in a similar vein, how could Bill and Martha's granddaughter bear the name Marceau?   I love the idea of continuing the Karr, Marceau, Hillyer, and Drake legacies, but if the new characters do not use the familiar last names, the effort to connect them to the past is rather fruitless.  Just my personal observation.   
    • And they gave him a whole commercial and everything! Happy to see that star keeps growing.
    • But the REAL question...   ...May Sweeps...OR SLEEPS...???

    • It's doubly a shame because one thing Long excelled at was using backstory to enhance the present story. I think that's one reason why Josh and Reva took off the way they did--the early stuff is really good. (Unfortunately, they ruined it by overusing the characters). Imagine if Roger returned to get involved with Alex, and her brother and ex, who used to be dire enemies, came together to oppose him. Instead, Mike was nowhere to be seen and Alan was written out for years. Yes, casting would have been an issue, but when you think about what they wound up with for 15 years...  
    • I've never been so annoyed to be running late. lol   EVERYONE looks so pretty.   Happy to see Andre and Eva interacting, Mona being there, and happy to see Nicole play matchmaker for Dani. Fingers crossed that FOINE doctor from Nicole's last event pops up.   @kalbir Andre looking like a snack in that tux.

      Lmao!!!! 
    • Also gotta feel sorry for Mona, realizing today that she’s only known Leslie for a few months; she’s going to blame herself for all of this.
    • The way this show handled Nikolas' shooting Hayden, Austin's murder, the long slow delay to getting rid of Cyrus, etc. we're likely to have it revealed in a year when Nina is 3 weeks away from leaving and has had minimal airtime.
    • Interesting. I love my Roku.  No, I don't know. Who? I mean Disney def does. I would think a number of parties have stocks.
    • Is he still spamming demands that they hire the campy chick from The Haves and Have Nots? Or whichever show it was. I don't think it's an either/or. I happen to think Dana, Dani, Eva, Nicole, Kat, etc. are all great. Certain folks aren't going to be some posters' favorites and that's fair enough. But I would argue most of those characters above (and several others) have caught on with a lot of the online audience. I've even warmed up to Martin!
