I have been thinking: Why doesn't Days recast more often?!?!
In the "old days" a voice would come on when a new actor appeared and would say: "The part of so-and-so is now being played by X-Y-Z Actor". We would hear that a couple of times and then the new actor would just be on as an old character.
Now, when an actor decides to leave, the character leaves. I think this leaves a big hole in the plot/families of Salem. Main characters have children that we never see or hear from them again.
Can you imagine that Marlena and John and Bo and Hope have children who are married and we haven't seen them in years. They are barely even talked about. I think this makes for horrible storylines and no continuity.
My vote is to recast instead of letting these characters fall off the face of the earth.
