We have had new families come and go throughout the years and no one replaces the Horton’s.  They have even replaced Mrs. H with Maggie who is a Horton by marriage.  So I don’t think the writers ignore them.  In fact they brought Nathan on the show and he is a Horton. 

I feel sometimes the writers cannot win.  When Stephanie was always dating her "cousins" people had issues and said more people outside the core Bady/Hortons needed to be introduced to allow easier pairings.  So now the writers bring in more families to allow easier pairing and people feel that a family is getting erased.

I would love to see more Hortons, but the cast can only be so big.  Plus you have to allow for people to pair together without pairing up with a family member.  I think days has done a good job reminding us the Horton’s are there with Maggie being a central figure right now, but balancing that with bringing in new families who can pair up with the Horton’s and Brady’s. 

I personally like Rafe and I think he has brought a lot to the canvass.  I also like Ari, and the jury is still out on Gabby because she is too new to decide anything about her.
