SPOILER !! New returns teaser

[sportzgirl916]

I'll go with Frankie Brady/Billy Warlock. They will bring him in for Jennifer. Plus if I remember correctly, the last time in Salem he was a lawyer and Salem needs a new one, now that Belle is gone.

-Sami (although, Alison Sweeney's/Sami latest interview alluded that basically, she is never coming back)

Never say never. I find it curious that multiple Days stars wished her a happy birthday on Twitter last week. Stuff like that is usually not a coincidence.

 

[Just Samantha]

I'm surprised at that (about the interview alluding to her never coming back). Ever since she left, she's always said she wanted to pop in and out from time to time, especially for "milestone" or special episodes or story arcs.

 

[Lil0]

I would love, love, love to see Frankie and Max again. :love:

 

[Just Samantha]

Unless they re-cast Max, he won't be back, though. He's on B&B as a major front burner character.

 

[Heather4CU]

I'm surprised at that (about the interview alluding to her never coming back). Ever since she left, she's always said she wanted to pop in and out from time to time, especially for "milestone" or special episodes or story arcs.

I didn't read the SOD article as saying she would never come back. The interviewer didn't explicitly ask either. She was just reminiscing about storylines she missed: chasing Carrie and Austin for years, Sami/Lucas relationship, etc. I got the impression that she wasn't happy with her character's direction towards the end of her run but again this wasn't explicitly said or asked.

 

[krw627]

Would love, love, love for Sami to come back (as long as it wasn't the Sami that left, but the more mature Sami from before the hate romp).

 

[JasonDíSpeech]

Unless Lexi is a one off ghost appearance/vision, but even that sounded like it was out of the cards when Ms Jones (ex-Lexie) left.

 

[Noel]

We do all miss Lexi though. She was a great characteer played by a good actress.

 

[Muzzaman]

Although Renee Jones (Lexie) said she is retiring, I would say never say never for some sort of return. The right storyline at the right price draws actors and actresses out of "retirement" fairly regularly.

 

[Sweetness-n-Patch4ever]

Looking at the photos, having Brandon Walker return would be nice. It would make the Carver family more prominent and bring Abe on the screen more, you'd hope. Plus with Lani returning, there's an opportunity to show all the siblings, Brandon, Lani, Theo, and Nicole through her brother, Brandon.

I would like to see them bring Nurse Maxine back and pair her with Abe again. They explored this a bit back in 2014 I think and I liked the couple. Brandon coming back would be cool but I'm not excited about the return of Lani :(

 

[Soaphead]

Austin Peck (Austin)? Ugh, disappointed.

 

[Heather4CU]

Interestingly, I have not seen one comment about why Patrick Muldoon (Austin) didn't reprise the role.

 

[soapkitty]

:OT: Ok @Poirot, now THAT is too much beard and scruff for me. This is unkempt!

I so totally agree Muzza.

I could not imagine kissing that and getting a mouth full of it. Ugh.

I do like long hair on a man though!

 

[Poirot]

Interestingly, I have not seen one comment about why Patrick Muldoon (Austin) didn't reprise the role.

Perhaps he was filming a movie, he has a slew of them for 2016, 3 or 4 in post production to come out in 2017. With that many, he probably just could not fit Days into the schedule.

 

[tabbycat46]

My top 3 picks storyline wise would be 1. Philip, 2. Stephanie, and 3. Brandon.

In my opinion, all 3 are needed in Salem at this point. Philip is needed because of Chloe and Deimos situation. Stephanie for Steve/Kayla/Joey and Brandon could be a great comfort to his little brother,Theo.

 

[Heather4CU]

Philip is currently in Salem. So this would just be an actor switch if Jay Kenneth Johnson (ex-Philip) was returning.

Perhaps he was filming a movie, he has a slew of them for 2016, 3 or 4 in post production to come out in 2017. With that many, he probably just could not fit Days into the schedule.

I understand but it's still interesting nobody has made a statement about it since he was the last person to play Austin.

 

[Just Samantha]

To be fair, they also didn't make any mention of why Austin Peck wasn't playing Austin during Carrie and Austin's last trip to Salem. And at that time, he had been the last actor to play the part.

 

[DaysLady]

I'd like it to be Stephanie, but not the Stephanie pictured. I liked the fiery redhead that was a Nascar driver, Stephanie.

That's just my personal opinion. I'll take either Stephanie. I just kind of want it to be Stephanie.

 

[Soaphead]

I liked redhead Stephanie too. That last one was annoying to me.
