    Do you really think that there will be a Gabi recast? Especially, given as to how this show has a cast as big as Heston’s Ten Commandments, do you really think that they have the money to hire some one to play Gabi, especially, given that it will raise questions given that it’s still the same character that CB had played, the viewers would question who was the Gabi that left once they get a recast to play the same character?

    I can see them re-casting Gabi. They re-cast Sonny. Not only that, a re-cast would probably be cheaper. I’m hoping Talia and Colin are gone soon and that will free up some money for the show too.

    Yes, they recasted Sonny, but remember this, ZT had teased a comeback & that Sonny maybe returning, I know that Freddie Smith did play Sonny before Tinker took over the role, but what I’m getting at is that when the character had left, no one questioned at all as to who he was when he left & the one that appeared in Beyond Salem, when the ambiguosly gay duo resided in Phoenix, in which now, people would question who was the one that left that ushered Banus out & the one that comes back as a new actress. What I mean is that, is that when they had the Halloween episode, the child playing Ari had the latin roots that Gabi has, negating as to what Sonny had said, meaning, that when he looks at Ari, he sees Will, what happens when they get an actress that doesn’t have that ethnicity, people are going to question as to how the character has a new ethnic background, see where I’m going with this?

    Well considering her name is Gabriella Hernandez, why would TPTB cast a non-Latina actress in the role. I’m sure they are a tad smarter than that and whoever they would re-cast would have the background. You’re assuming they wouldn’t.

    Well they had gotten a Latina actress to play the role of Ari Horton, when her mommy & Li took her to a Halloween party in the square, when Sonny had once looked at her face, he put it out that he saw Will in her. This may have nothing to with ethnicity, but ED’s Kristen had put it out there in Beyond Salem 2 the antics of Kristen DiMera back in Salem where she was played by Stacy Haiduk. You tell me how they would get a non-latina actress for the role Gabi?
