TobinAlbers November 30, 2015 Share November 30, 2015 (edited) I'm still on the Nicole finds out she's pregnant with Daniel's baby and leaves town to start over train. She may not want to tell Maggie about her pregnancy until she successfully delivers so as not to get the woman's hopes up considering Nicole's issues in the past. Or she may flee to avoid a custody battle with a grieving Maggie and mean ole Victor. Nicole gets her bittersweet happily ever after in finally getting a baby but not the man and she can return at a later date to show Maggie her grandkid.

BlackMamba November 30, 2015 Share November 30, 2015 Like I been preaching, the current writers dont know how to write for the Brady clan, hence, why the Hernandez family will be front and center soon. Josh Griffith is from the Santa Barbara writing team!!! It was no shock when A Martinez joined the cast as the sperm-a- Raider. Plus they have casted for Dario and a the Hernandez momma. It's only a matter of time before the Brady are all gone and the Hernandez is gets a shit load of airtime. It's just a shame because the Bradys have been part of this show since 1981 starting with the real Roman played by Wayne Northrup. Now we're down to Kayla, Joey, Theresa and widowed Ma Brady. I cant really count Shawn, Ciara and Clair because they are blood bond Kiriakis' but they are legal Bradys. Plus this is also a flush out of all the TomSell favs. 1 Link to comment
Sandman November 30, 2015 Share November 30, 2015 I would never have imagined that Ashford COULD return; for one, I thought (or assumed) the relationship between him and the showrunners had soured too much. And, b) isn't Jack a little too -- what's the word? -- squished? What happened to the pronouncement from Corday the Great and Terrible about the dead staying dead? Or was that only the dead of Autumn 2015? I guess Jack was only mostly dead. 2 Link to comment
howmanywords November 30, 2015 Share November 30, 2015 (edited) Roger was also a lot younger than Peter so I think the circumstances are a bit different. At 60 years old I can see why Peter made the choice he made and its to be expected he's focusing on his daughter. Yep i guess with the news about GV leaving official the drunk driving crash rumor is true. Sigh. Since MA is only on for 5 episodes I figure Jack will be a ghost.

Petunia13 November 30, 2015 Share November 30, 2015 Maybe or maybe not but I can't begrudge his decision. His daughter is top priority right now. From what I have read she is deaf and wants to give all his attention to her. And with that good for him. Hes put in 30+yrs (which is more than Howarth who has only been in soaps for like under 25yrs) to soap industry not just on Days but ATWTs. Hes won countless awards. And has made a lot of money. I think Peter will be happy in his retirement. If not, there is a primetime soap called "Nashville" if the producers ever wanted him on as a recurring he might take a chance, isn't filmed in Nashville where Peter currently lives? I did not know his daughter was deaf. I do know he mentioned many x that he wanted the time off to focus on family and the simple things. Also his wife's career is doing well so he was fine with letting her take lead now while he was the homemaker. 1 Link to comment

Although I did hear a rumor that Fynn is gay and will be hooking up with Paul ... My two cents? This is never going to happen. Never ever. I'm more and more convinced that when Corday talked about "not recognizing" the show, the same-sex love stories are what he meant, and they are gone from the show. (But then again, I think even Sparkle would have better taste than to get close to someone named "Fynn." ... I'm sorry; I just can't with that name.)

The writers didnt write for him and Judi. Im sure the GH fans will be happy to see him comeback as full time though. That show has killed off every Quartermaine and needs Ned.Heck Im kind of surprised Judi and Wally been contract for so long. Plus I thought Judi would had been given a chance to play off of Vincent Irizarry since they did GL together. Oh well. Now that Days is rebooting post-anniversary and trying to go into next negotiations for renewal without heavy contract actors, I wouldn't be surprised if the Hernandez family and those teens(which tends to be my least fav of any soap except YR) be rammed down our throats.

Apprentice79 December 1, 2015 Share December 1, 2015 (edited) Can't say I'm sad to see Wally's latest version of Justin go -- he's been a dick lately. Nevertheless, it is pretty obvious that Griffith is creating his own version of Days of our lives....It is obvious that Higley has been neutralized.To me, this is proof Dena had very little control and now has next to none and may be on the way out. She has always been a big supporter of these two and there is no way they are gone if she has enough input. She loves the Kiriakis family and has always seems to push Justin and Adrienne since 2009. She brought both characters back after they were basically MIA for two decades (aside from Adrienne's brief return in 2007). The whole thing was weird. I also think that Sonny leaving made Justin and Adrienne vulnerable. Look at what happened to Will and Wilson..The show never brought back one of their other sons to town...I guess the Hernandez family will be the new core family in Salem.. I am so glad that I am no longer watching the show..I only read the recaps and I cannot wait to see Jack back on screen. I wanted the Johnson family to be alive and reunited on the show. I was hoping that the show would give us the story that was promised years ago..The Steven/Jack relationship fraught with so much regret, love, and complexity has never been fully realized...It is a shame that I will never see Justin, Adrienne, Sonny, Alex, Joseph and Victor Jr. interact as a family on screen......Adrienne being the matriarch of the new Kiriakis dynasty was always interesting to me given that she was so against Justin embracing his kiriakis roots, when they got married years ago...

If they were let go yesterday then she may have screen time with VI over the next 6 months. 3 Link to comment

Im ok with it being open ended. I couldn't take it if another Brady is killed off. It would be too much. I think if the fans rage enough about the character being gone then the producers and writers will have to do a recast and find someone whos not as costly as Greg Vaughn to play Eric. 1 Link to comment
NumberCruncher December 1, 2015 Share December 1, 2015 It definitely sounds like Eric isn't going to die and could very well be back in the future. I agree with Apprentice79 that he's probably going to jail for driving drunk and killing someone. Sounds like a pretty incredible acting opportunity which is why GV sounds so upbeat and positive about the storyline. It sucks for his fans, of course, but he seems quite satisfied. 3 Link to comment

jlrd2000 December 1, 2015 Share December 1, 2015 The biggest missed opportunity with the character of Eric was the aftermath of his rape. It would have been interesting to see how a man adjusts to life after rape. Seeing him seek counseling, trying to feel comfortable around a woman again, or even flying into a rage and seeking revenge. Something! Instead, we ended up with Brady's drugging and drinking, Shredgate, and Dr Dan the hero. 6 Link to comment

I don't get these show runners...at all. They get rid of the characters that have (the most) interesting history and introduce all these new characters they have to create some kind of backstory for so that we'll give a sh*t about them. Why not write for what you have...for the characters people have watched & invested in for years- one way or another...hate to love or love to hate. Higley is shredding this show...Corday is letting her.....WHY?! Are they that stupid. (Yeah, dumb question.) Not many characters I give a sh*t about are going to be left.

I don't think the likes of A Martinez and Vincent Irizarry come cheap though. Seems to me that trying to cut costs isn't a sign of a producer knowing the end is near--it's usually done when the network mandates it as a term of renewal. What does make sense to me is that they're trimming characters they aren't currently using very much and bringing in others that they feel may have more story potential. If anything this looks like Corday and the writers trying a new tack to build on the higher ratings while cutting the added cost of contract actors whom they don't want to write for.

Peanut6711 December 1, 2015 Share December 1, 2015 If Corday is supposedly writing for "The End" then why are they bringing on new characters? I don't get that logic. Most of the new characters or new casting (like the teen scene) are more disposable -- i.e more easily written out, not that they aren't doing a good job of writing out the vets w/history too. They have to write something if they are on through the fall of '16 and what they are filming now would only be through about Spring so it's possible those storylines and actors are only about 6 month arcs. Maybe that's not what they are doing but it's really strange that a show that just celebrated 50 years would be trimming away at it's core families so much. Heck, the Horton's didn't even have enough people to host their own Thanksgiving, they just tagged along at the Brady Pub. 3 Link to comment
