DAYS: February 2024 Discussion Thread

Maybe she's waiting [now] to see the result of Arianne Zucker's lawsuit? Or maybe she'll tag onto hers and co-file? Or she may just ignore and move along.

She might be Abby. Her character’s supposed name is Marin. Ashley Benson, the best Abby, played a character named Hannah Marin on Pretty Little Liars.

Maybe.  I am actually surprised no one co-filed with AZ to be honest.  Nadia and Camilla both seem to have big issues as well.  

[Liberty City]

Maybe because they're hoping to be re-hired?

Gabi has been recast and Nadia moved to the East Coast.

[Contessa Donatella]

Yes, both of them, Martha, Judi and some of us thought Lindsay fit the Blind Item. 

[Lye-C]

I hope Martha sues because it will guarantee she never returns. It’s been 20 years and I still can’t stand Granny Belle.

Oh I believe Days has recast Nicole unless Corday is real Petty and kills her off

[carolineg]

Well, I mean Nadia is fired and re-hired every few years lol so that's fair. 

[Liberty City]

Yup. She is an easy "cut her. She'll come back" kind of actor in the eyes of TPTB. She is the ever-revolving door.

[carolineg]

I actually wonder why the show struggles so much with Chloe.  It seems like a fairly easy character to write and Nadia is a pretty solid performer overall.  She's not winning emmys or anything, but I've never had an issue with Chloe or Nadia.

[Liberty City]

I think it's because no one takes the character or actor seriously, and knows that even if they're cut they will come back when asked.

[carolineg]

I suppose.  It's just a crappy way to treat an obviously loyal employee, but she's not the only one who got this treatment.  I can't stand MM's Belle, but she's another one that is clearly loyal and never used properly.  Gabi/CM is someone I can take or leave because I don't actually think she leaves a hole in the show, but Belle and Shawn not being around is noticeable.  

[Liberty City]

I agree: all she asked for was some kind of contractually guarantee and they couldn't provide it. And now a noticeable hole is there. When Brady mentioned Belle & Carrie... whew. Their lack of presence was felt in that moment in time.

[carolineg]

Absolutely.  Obviously CC has all but retired, but not having Belle there to even represent Tate felt odd.  Honestly, even all this Xander/Sarah and Brady/Theresa/Alex stuff feels weird without Chloe.  She could have easily been part of both stories-instead she just abruptly left with Phillip mid-story lol.
