Joe Penny Exits Days of our Lives

Joe Penny (tv.msn.com)
It seems like we were just reporting that Joe Penny was joining the cast of Days as Ava’s father, Martino Vitali, and now word comes that his brief stint is already coming to an end.

***If you don’t like spoilers, please don’t read any further as details of his departure will follow.***

Vitali came to Salem to check up on his hospitalized daughter and wasted no time catching up with his former “lady friend” Kate. Believing Martino was behind Ava’s drug induced actions and therefore responsible for his pop’s death, Bo quickly tracked the mobster down, clocked him one and threatened to kill him. Apparently Brady makes good on his threat, as according to set side sources, Martino meets his untimely death on May 15th, by Bo’s hand.

We here at Soaps.com have been enjoying Penny’s turn as the dastardly mob boss and with so much potential for rich stories, namely Martino’s relationship with Kate, Penny’s departure is unfortunate. However, since Bo is the one who takes him out, we can’t wait to see what the future will hold for one of Salem's top cops.

I am glad that they are taking him out! Stephano has been the only one, besides Victor, that has played the role so well! I think his role would have been better in another character form.

I really enjoyed Martino on the show. It brought a great s/l why would they end this so soon? We needed some new interesting characters and he was one of them. They never said what ties him and Kate has together. They could've went a long way with this one.

I think this stinks with him leaving we could use a villian on the show, now that Stephano is not around we need someone.
He is also a great actor and his story could have gone in so many directions, with Kate, the Brady's and the Victor....
Our lose.

I am so happy that Lucas is back. Sammy and Lucas should be together already! I'm glad Mr. Vitali ia already gone. Get on track. Sammy and Lucas, Marlina and John should be together.
