Members Liberty City Posted December 12, 2023 Members Share Posted December 12, 2023 Per report: A DAYS rep confirms to Digest that Peter Porte has wrapped his run as Dimitri Von Leuschner, a role he originated on DAYS OF OUR LIVES: BEYOND SALEM in 2021 and reprised on DAYS beginning in May of this year. (In the storyline, as viewers learned on the December 12th episode, Dimitri was shuttled off to a supermax prison.) When he first returned, he told Digest that he never expected a second chapter to his Salem life. When asked back, “I thought they were throwing me in for another episode and then they offered the contract and I was shocked. I was shocked, and so excited.” He added, “I always wanted to come back because I think [doing DAYS] is the closest to live theater that we have on this coast, and that’s where I got my start. I also am very fortunate to be working with a writing team that is very talented and cares about these characters. And the people that I’ve been paired with on this show are everything. The cast that I’ve had the privilege of working with has perhaps been my favorite experience so far.” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmaster Errol Posted December 12, 2023 Webmaster Share Posted December 12, 2023 As Nikki Finke would say, "TOLDJA!" When it was first announced by another site he was on contract shortly after he began airing, I had already been told he was recurring at that point in real life. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wingwalker Posted December 12, 2023 Members Share Posted December 12, 2023 I like Peter Porte a lot, but Dimitri was a terrible character. Won't miss him. Leo needs to be the next to go. Leo and Dimitri are a huge downgrade from Sonny, Will, Paul and Andrew. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Contessa Donatella Posted December 12, 2023 Members Share Posted December 12, 2023 They'll probably catch the little part soon, too. Exists for exits is a good one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Lye-C Posted December 12, 2023 Members Share Posted December 12, 2023 Disappointing because I like Peter Porte. I wanted Dimitri to turn out to be John and Marlena’s 1986 baby who Stefano gave to Megan to raise. That being said, if his run wrapped six months ago, why was he at Day of Days in November? Leo at least has a personality. Sonny and Will in particular are bland, boring, and dry. Same is true for Andrew so far but I love him with sweet Paul. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted December 12, 2023 Members Share Posted December 12, 2023 (edited) I hate this but it’s for the best. Peter Porte was completely wasted. Wasted even worse than Zach Tinker, which I didn’t think was possible. All because Ron Carlivati is too hard for Leo and too small minded to have a gay actor play anything but a gay character. SMH I wouldn’t even be surprised if he was angry when Peter Porte was first cast in Beyond Salem. This storyline and this pairing were total garbage. How do you get this talented, charismatic, and absolutely gorgeous actor, who can be a villain, can do comedy and can have good romantic chemistry with both men and women and then approve such an awful, mean spirited and nonsensical storyline for him? And pair him with the worst character on the show? They didn’t just drop the ball with this storyline and character. They dropped it, ran it over with a friggin 18-wheeler and then set what was left on fire. I’m sure we’ll see him again. I just hope that Leo is dead or gone when we do. There’s still an obvious storyline there with Megan. And also with the ISA connection #Dandrew In the meantime, I’m sure Peter Porte will land roles that are actually good enough for him. I may not miss his character all that much but I’ll definitely miss him Please register in order to view this content EDIT: My apologies, for the rant lol Edited December 12, 2023 by AbcNbc247 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Lye-C Posted December 12, 2023 Members Share Posted December 12, 2023 Dimitri wasn’t paired with Maggie. I prefer gay actors playing gay roles. I hate seeing straight guys playing gay characters. Imagine my disappointment when Chandler Massey turned out to be straight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Contessa Donatella Posted December 12, 2023 Members Share Posted December 12, 2023 Today is just a good day for typos! Meanwhile a Canadian attorney who hasn't been watching but watched today because she knew Steve was going to have a scene with Jada about Marcus has pulled out what the flashback the show needed, could have been! If she could find it, why couldn't the show? https://twitter.com/i/status/1734606866989326469 An intentional non sequitur? Look at the movie CAROL & tell me those straight women do not show their characters being in love? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
