[Taoboi]

Go, Sharon, go!!!!!!!!!!!

[Cruising Soaps]

Way too much Hayley.  UGh.  

[Paul Raven]

Ridiculous retcon to give Victoria another child. Kill off Matt Miller and have his daughter come to live with the Newmans as a surrogate daughter if they wanted younger members of the family.

[soapfan770]

Well way too much Billy for me LOL. Did the character do anything productive in 2024? Screaming Chancellor Park in the dark doesn’t count. 
 

@YRfan23 I just noticed Rikaart didn’t appear at all 2024. Obviously I feel very bad for Days fans but if Rikaart doesn’t appear in 2025 that works too lol, especially since Chloe has also finally stopped popping up as well. 

[YRfan23]

Ha, you know I didn't remember if we saw Rikaart appear at all this year?

  I hate to say this but ever since he initially "left" I still feel like we tend to see him pretty often, yet that's why I'm surprised he didn't at least appear once this year. 

[soapfan770]

LOL. I don’t think he’s been on contract since 2017, but he has always had comings and goings that lasted for weeks and/or months. I think I recall he did double duty in 2020-21 when Chloe was pregnant with their son. Ever since then he’s been more at Days. I know he appeared at TEB’s 40th episode but missed the 50th anniversary altogether.

Chapman didn’t appear in 2024 either, although she also returned to Days.

Also is Lisa Williams the same Lisa Williams who was ED’s double during the original Susan/Mary Moira/Thomas story on Days as well as the recurring Brady Pub waitress/bartender Lisa from the 90’s and 00’s?

[YRfan23]

Chapman last aired I believe Thanksgiving 2023, which I think was probably the last we saw of GR? 

[soapfan770]

I checked and you’re correct it was Thanksgiving 2023.  Also had to double check IMDB to make sure there were no 2024 credits listed lol.

[YRfan23]

LOL thanks!

 I just remember the whole thing being stupid, although I wouldn't mind seeing Gloria pop in from time to time.

[soapfan770]

Oh yeah it was lol. I actually just noticed they one appeared one more time in the 12/28/2023 episode where Michael & Lauren renewed their vows, which I had totally forgotten about that as well except for Lauren mentioning that Fen was spending close time with Trey AND his sponsor for Christmas in a cabin.

[janea4old]

Yes. Lisa Williams also appeared in Beyond Salem 2 for Eileen's multiple roles.

And also at Days as Stacy Haiduk's double for Kristen/Susan scenes.

(and briefly as Deidre's double for Marlena/Hattie scenes)

Eileen said in an interview that she pitched to JG that they hire Lisa as Ashley's alter.

[YRfan23]

Haha, I don't remember that, but sigh...what a waste that Fen and Trey's love story isn't being told onscreen....yet that's probably for the better anyways...

[Antoyne]

If he wasn’t poisoning DAYS as Leo this would be exciting but I guess small fortunes I didn’t have to watch both his characters I hate pollute 2/3 of the remaining shows I watch. 

[soapfan770]

Thanks @janea4old appreciate it!! I’m glad Lisa was able to do that for ED I had no idea. 
 

Yeah Lauren also later told Nikki like a week later about how closer Fen was with the male sponsor lol. But yeah Fen & Trey would probably be marginalized to probably be running a cafe or something.

 

I know right. It’s also exacerbated but terrible writing for the character.
