WHY???????????? Even though I loved Alexis on Y&R, I really don't see how
she could fit in here. We've already got this Belle / Phillip / Cynthia /
Chloe / Mimi / Jan / Shawn-D mess, why do we need another teen??? Yeesh,
this is where they got into trouble last year and after swaring up and down
to the fans that they were going to bring the show back on track (which so
far they've done a good job of doing) they do and bring us in another teen.
WHY??????? I could see her as a recast of Jan, but why do we need another
Bitchy Teen?!?!
Phillip's exit has not been confirmed. The actor saying he's not expected
to resign is a far cry from not resigning. And is most likely an attempt to
get more money on his next contract. But, if the Days people were smart
they'd check the net, realize how hated Jay Kenneth Johnson is and cut him
lose, maybe bring the REAL Phillip back - Brandon Tyler.
In the summer they try to attract younger viewers to the show, so maybe that's
why they hired another teen.

Kim has one daughter, named Jeannie after Shane's mother. She also
has a son, named Andrew after Shane's twin brother.
they wouldn't do that because then they couldn't have her go after Shawn.

I like the actress who plays Abbey, but I had a sneaking suspicion that when
she returned from Blue Bird camp she would be 12 years old. But she wasn't. I
would have no problem with a 12/13 year old Abbey, Jen and Jack are old enough
for that. Kind of like when they had the 12 year old Shawn D on for a while
(was that a different actor than the current one? I think so. It was when
Billie and Bo lived on the boat).

Stupid question. How do "we" know for sure?
Second, you mention nothing of Shawn D. or Brady or Belle..... what of them?
>We know for sure that by next fall, Jan, Cynthia, Phillip will be gone from
>the show.
And they'll probably turn up in alt.tv.days-of-our-lives to join the
other teenagers in posting stupidity.
you mean Collin O'Donnell. I really liked him and wish they haddn't
recasted him with Jason Cook and just let him play his own age (he was the
age Jason was hired to play)
Shawn (they're an irish family, and Shawn is the correct irish and show
spelling of the name) will most likely be the one she's after. Since
Phillip's leaving and they have Cynthia already causing probs for him, and
Jan's on her way out.
As I said, I'd love it if Alexis played a recast of Jan.
Heck on those days with all teen storylines, I can skip an entire day of
viewing.
That's why I'm not sure how I'd react if they rapid-aged Abbey; I like her too,
but also it might make Jack & Jen's life more interesting with an older
daughter.

But her nose wasn't always running like this one's is.
what if she's after brady?
I agree. However you cannot have the teens running the show like they did
last summer. Teens with connections with the important characters on the
show are good, if the writers know how to use them.
Definitely agreed with you here. Meanie girl, macho-dumbass, nerd boy, shy,
Fat-ima, Sinythia etc, etc are definietly a "BLAH" here and need have their
parents to hauling their ass outta of Salem and need to put them in boot camp
or sumthin'.
>As a babyboomer, I'm tired of the teens. Sean, Belle, Chloe, and Philip I
Well, when you think about it, Brady isn't a teen anymore. In fact, isn't he
almost 21 on the show? I think I read that somewhere.

In the case of Sean Connery, it's apparently the Scottish version.

SEAN m Irish
Irish form of JOHN
SHAWN m,f English
Anglicized form of SEAN, also used as a feminine form.
Soooo, if his name is Shawn, the rather Irish Bradys have a wild-eyed
Englishman runnin' around someplace <g>

As far as the older Days couples, some of them are boring. Hope & Bo are
boring. Even John & Marlena is a snooze fest. When they guys are on, I
switch to Bold & the Beautiful.
Only couple I really like is Craig & Nancy. The worst is Jack &
Jennifer. He has been nothing more than a bumbling idiot and she is a
straight up bitch.
First of all, can you honestly blamed Jennifer for her straight up bitch when
Jack actin' like a bumbling idiot? I mean, really, what would you do if that a
bumbling idiot harassing you the way Jack does to Jennifer?
