I read the new SOW at the store today, in which two of the editors discussed
the possibility of Tom Eplin and Jensen Buchanan as Kim and Shane recasts.
IIRC, their consensus was that it would only work if Charles Shaughnessy and
Patsy Pease weren't available. That's the only way I think it would work, too.
I loved Jake and Vicky, but I used to watch DOOL back when Kim and Shane were
on, and would like them to reprise the roles if possible.

OTOH, if Charles and Patsy *don't* want to come back, it'd be nice to see Tom
and Jensen together again (though it would sure take me a long time not to
think of them as Jake and Vicky).

not gonna happen. Tom Eplin's out of the soap busness for now. He said so
when he left As The World Turns.

And you know what? After watching ATWT cater to AW's few remaining fans I'm
not up for another round of it on Days.

Yeah. Talk about pathetic.

In my opinion, if the original Shane and Kimberly can't return, they should not
recast the roles. Recasting would definitely be a no-no to me.

those brief stints, which to me indicates a loyalty to the show.

As for Tom Eplin and Jensen Buchanan, perhaps they could move to Salem
as Jake and Vicky.

Would there be any logical reason? I'd love it.

on a show that was owned by the same company that owned Another World. Days
would have to pay royalties to use Jake and Vicky. And besides ... THEY'RE
BOTH DEAD! 100% Dead. Jake was shot and died in Oakdale Memorial under the
watch of Bob Hughes and John Dixon. Vicky died and her ghost told Molly
where to find her and Jake's twins.

I wouldnt mind if Tom and Jensen came on as different characters. They are
both
wonderful actors.

I can't see that happening. Jensen Buchanan is too young to play Bo's
older sister. Isn't she?

so, who is raising the twins? I only watched ATWT for a few episodes after
AW was cancelled. I just couldn't get into it.

well ATWT started a story about Molly fighting for custody since those
bitches Donna and Marley came back the day after he died laying claim to
Bridget & Michelle. After a couple weeks and some heated fan reaction (most
were POed at them) they came up with this "Trial run" thing. Supposidly
Molly would get to raise the girls for some time and so would D&M and they'd
see how it would go. A joint custody thing. Only now Molly's turning into
an alcoholic ... the show's way of making the twins stay with D&M. And god,
Jake's ghost has been hanging around that woman for the last 2 months and
it's getting soooooooo tiresome. Especially when Molly took Jake's ashes
down to the Lakeview Lounge and had drinks with him. Thankfully July 8th
brings an end to his awful ghostly visits to Molly (like um HELLO Jake,
you're kinda driving the woman to drink!!)

In real time or Salem time?

Technically, you're correct. Plus, Peter Reckell *looks* older than Jensen
Buchanan.

OTOH, since Vicky Hudson and Sam Fowler were age cohorts, and since Robert
Kelker-Kelly both Sam and Bo, I suppose a case could be made for it.

Gayest. Idea. Ever.

I lost all respect for Buchanan after her appalling performance on GH as
Melissa. She totally sucked.

Gay means bad to you?

I liked her and think she did a good job.

The writers didn't know what to do with her though and ruined the
opportunity.

The same way they've ruined having A Martinez these years.

At least now he seems to be getting an interesting story line.

I don't think I would like that very much. I can't see "Jake and Vicky" as
Shane and Kim.
