Well, we are learning that some of our beloved characters are getting pink slipped or leaving due to salary disputes.

***********Spoiler talk************

So far, John, Marlena, and Phillip are out the door. Even though Phillip will be recast, according to Chrissi, I still can't believe that we will not be seeing Dee, Drake, and Jay on screen anymore. There are so many other characters that deserved to be written out so I know we have discussed our favs and least favs but who do you want to see gone and who has to be saved? Let's do top 5 of each.

Mine are:

Have to be saved:
1. Sami
2. Lucas
3. Nicole
4. Bo
5. Hope

They can go (not in order)
1. Ej--his character has killed LUMI and turned Nicole into a wuss
2. Nick
3. Kate
4. Abe
5. Lexie

let me know your thoughts

Save:
EJ/Sami (the main reason I watch)
Bo/Hope (and give them a good storyline while you're at it)
Caroline (We already lost Grandpa Shawn, we need Grandma!)
Maggie/Mickey (what can I say, I like them).
Tony/Anna (my favorite of the vets).


Get rid of:
Kate (Can I count the ways I feel NO sympathy for her?)
Melanie (uggh!)
Nick (Mr. Brainiac Nice Guy Is Now A Loony Toon)
Lexie/Abe (when's the last time they had a good s/l?)
Chelsea (I used to like her but now she's getting on my nerves).


I haven't mentioned any of the other characters because it honestly doesn't matter to me if they remain on DAYS or not, I don't really tune in to see them.

You all should keep in mind that the reason those actors were let go is because they were paid a lot and the show has to cut back in order to stay afloat. There is nothing the show can do about this. Getting rid of some of the other cast won't make up for the inflated $$ of some of the actors.

I'm upset about it too but just want everyone to understand they were not fired for being crappy or anything!!

Hang in there!!

Only five????

Save:

1. Sami
2. EJ
3. Marlena
4. John
5. Philip
6. Old Nicole

Get Rid of:

1. New Nicole
2. Melanie (can I vote for her more than once?)
3. New Bo/Hope 'super' (bad) cops
4. Kate
5. Dr Danless Chelsea
6. Psyco Nick

Since I used Nicole twice I figured I earned an extra person. :P

Thanks Chrissi, I understand that however, I think if the writers were doing a good job then the ratings would be up and Days would have more advertising dollars and more opprotunity to earn money for the show. I think if they were doing a good job then the show would not have to sacrifice key players in order to pay the bills. I may be wrong on how this works, but I think if the story was good then they could afford to pay the good actors.

It's interesting too how they've added two new actors and put them in front-burner s/ls while leaving the majority of the vets on the shelf. They have these marvellous older actors that they rarely use, are letting two of the most beloved vets go because of budget cuts but they have no problem hiring new actors for recurring and pivotal roles on the show?

Hmmm. I don't pretend to know what's going on behind the scenes but it does make you wonder where the common sense is going.

Wow, so it's true, John & Marlena and Philip are going for sure. Well, What kind of show can they have when they let go of the main characters? Wow, this show is really terrible. All I can say is I bet they know a sinking ship when they see it. Goodbye to John & Marlena and Philip we wish you our best and good luck!

The rest of the cast that is not on this list are fillers and I could care less either way.

Greed is what got this country into trouble in the first place and i know my answer isnt going to be popular but this is how i feel. We all have to sacrifice right now and the actors on soaps might have to as well. If they cant deal with that its their right to go. So dont let the door hit you in the arse.

Keepers:

Bo
Hope
Chelsea
Nicole
Sami

much to hard to pick only 5

Gonners:
John
Marlena
Melanie
Chloe
Anna

also hard to pick only 5

Mine are:
John..the old John.
Bo
Hope
Sami
Marlena, so so on this one.
Lucas
Philip
Nicole
EJ, yes EJ

Could care less:
Lexie
Abe
Kate
Melanie
Stephanie
Max
Nick, shall I go on?

My choices are the characters, not the actors.
I feel bad but some of these GREAT actors have been reduced to crappy s/l's.
