I am going to add Drake Hogestyn to your Dool list, he was really good in Marlena’s DNR storyline, and was even prenommed, but no nomination sadly.

I agree this whole thing with Laura doesn’t make sense to begin with, lets start with that Gwen is supposed to be older than Abigail. Laura was still locked up in the sanitarium until her and Vivian broke out during the fire when Abigail was like 2 or 3 years old ( never know how old she was actually supposed to be with soras ) and Laura still trying to get her life back together, somehow found out that Jack slept with another woman, while him and Jennifer weren’t even together, had a child with her, and paid her off. It just seems a little too much for Laura to be able to do especially since I imagine it would have taken her a few years of working again to make some money back just to be able to pay off Gwen’s mom, with what i assume, was a large substantial amount of money. That part makes no sense to me. I also agree killing off Laura is a stupid idea, mind you, she only makes cameo appearances now once every decade as well so…if it was Maggie being killed off ( again ) it’d be a little more maddening to me i suppose.

I’m not sure how much interest. On December 11, 2019 I started a thread for fun called “Best performers of the decade from your favorite soaps” I did my favorites from days. While there were tons of views, there wasn’t a single reply to it at all. It’s on page 6 near the bottom if anyone wants to bump it back, but people were either preoccupied back then, or not interested….not sure.

Oops. I had a busy weekend and didn’t get around to voting. Curious how much of a difference my votes would have made. I will try harder next year. 🙁

At Louise’s age, it may not be safe for her to travel to act right now. I think you are one of very few who actually enjoyed Robin Strasser as Vivian. Robin Strasser is a capable actress, but she’s no Louise Sorel, and she was not Vivian. lol

I completely disagree with you. I think Isabel Durant is awful as Claire, she almost comes across as a completely new character altogether. I wish Olivia Rose Keegan would return to the role asap, nobody played crazy claire and recovering crazy Claire as good as her. This portrayal of Claire is talked about as recovering crazy, but she shows no signs whatsoever of a character who is was recovering from psychiatric help. Maybe they just need to give her some kind of storyline where she can show what she can do, but so far, she’s done nothing.

I agree. Drake Hogestyn has been great in these scenes. I meant to cite him in the other thread, but i forgot. He’s not perfect, but he can deliver in emotional scenes, i still wish he had gotten nominated for the DNR storyline, his scenes with belle arguing over marlena’s DNR request, were really well acted.

It was said somewhere that with the return to taping in September, that the show had a big upcoming storyline for jack and Jennifer, so i guess they needed a recast right away, and just letting reeves be off canvas for a few weeks, wasn’t an option.

I don’t care what anybody says, this is a huge loss. Reeves made the character of Jennifer what she is. She may only have 2 emmy nominations, but she should have way more, and at least one on her mantle, i hope this is just temporary and she comes back.

I didn’t realize that Jan was coming back to the show, but it doesn’t surprise me, given that Philip, Chloe, Belle and Shawn are all currently in Salem. This should be fun. I also didn’t know that Tripp was returning to Salem. I heard rumors before he might be Allie’s baby-dad. But I really can’t see that being true. Glad he’s back, and Is Casey Moss returning too? Pretty sure they showed him in that preview video as well. About time Days kept some returns a secret. I try to avoid spoilers, because I hate knowing ahead of time what’s going to happen, I miss 25 years ago when you just had to wait and see, instead of reading what’s going to happen leaked out online. call me old fashioned, but that’s how i liked it.

This sucks, just when Olivia Keegan’s acting was getting good, and now she’s being recasted. lol
