If Serena were coerced into this plot she certainly doesn’t seem scared to stand up to Xander. I can understand her wanting to protect Eric, but just why would he be in danger? I can’t believe he knows anything about this but we really don’t know the whole story. If she’s due to get 200K those diamonds must be worth a lot! Anyone think she might actually be working on the inside to nail the thieves?
if we knew she was staying on …. sadly, she’s not. I think her feelings for Eric have been rekindled since she came to Salem, and perhaps that’s why she does not want him involved becuse evidently this Xander guy has already threatened to cause Eric to be physically harmed (or worse) if Serena doesn’t turn over the diamonds. I was very disappointed to learn that she was part of the smuggling ring and not being forced into something she had no control over. To bad, so to that I say "buh-bye" Serena.
Originally short term OR is this a Dena H. chop?!?
I read there are rumors that they are dropping the unpopular characters. Could Paige/Eve be next? PLEASE!!! (Sorry Patti – we disagree on True. She is awful.)
Xander just entered the scene and already he’s unpopular to me. Yick, horrible acting and, I am not supposed to comment on his physical looks.
would Xander still harm Eric if Serena turns over the gems? Especially if Eric knows nothing. Why would Xander even care? I would still like to know how she became involved.
I liked her character initially so if Days now decided she is leaving and is turning her into a criminal it speaks well for the actress that I changed my mind.
I wish the upcoming cuts would include Eve and Theresa and Ann!but her entire original s/l was dropped completely. This tells me that it was not a writers’ decision, but more the higher-ups. I remember when it was first announced that MA would be joining DOOL, Ken Corday commented in an article that Serena wa a "good" girl, but either Ken lied to appease fans, or she was just a plot once they decided that fans could not accept her with Eric Brady, so I’m guessing this is the beginning of the rise and fall and rise again of Erc and Nicole. I also read there will be more cast cuts that we will be seeing in the following weeks, supposedly, and I think "Serena" is the first of those. I’m just surprised that MA was cut so quickly and her and Eric’s Africa story was never fully explored. I like the actress, but many did not.
As for True, I’ll admit the actress is dull, but I think she’s sweet and I loved her with JJ until momma mia got her sick claws into her daughter’s boyfriend. Surprised Jennifer even wants JJ and Paige to get back together knowing and having caught JJ and Eve in bed. This will probably come back to bite Jen harder than it does JJ, and now Daniel suspects the truth, so it’s the beginning of the perfect set-up to reuniting Nicole with Eric, while Daniel rescues Jennifer when all of this hits the fan. I know you see how this works, right TFlo1018? I’ve already predicted the same thing will happen to Brady and Melanie once Kristen returns and the stolen fetus s/l gets started in a few weeks. If it’s true that unpopular characters are being dogged for elimination, one by one, then I would say Molly Burnette will be on her way out soon as well.
I don’t know if Paul Telfer (Xander) is on contract or not, but if so I’m pretty sure he won’t be here for very long; probably one of those 13 weeks and out things they do with contracts. Don’t forget, though, the ridiculous time frame for DOOL airings is still 5 to 5 1/2 months, so we won’t be seeing any of the new writers’ work until mid-late August; maybe some "tweaks" here and there, but noting substantial until then.
The 5.5 month thing is horrible – Y&R just casted for a role that is airing in April. GET IT TOGETHER DOOL – you cannot course correct when you’re a half a year out. Terrible!!!
I like MA as an actress and I’m sure DOOL brass hoped her OLTL following would spill over – sadly it did not. But Serena as a charcter – total snore. And yes – I totally see Dan/Jen and Eric/Nicole in the future. Zzz….
If I had a wish list for "buh bye" it would be as follows (and in order):
– Eve – Paige – Serena – Rafe – Will – Ben – Clyde – Melanie –
I can live with Teresa staying knowing what’s coming – and as far as Melanie, she isn’t the same this go round. I don’t like her with Brady one bit (too Sami/Lucas for me – friends as lovers doesn’t do it for me.)
I just hope that when Ali comes back for this 50th (since her, Peter & Stephen are the hot topics now) that they all agree to stay. Tho I’ll be honest in saying Patch n Kayla (and Kim n Shane) were a major bore for me. But perhaps I was too young to appreciate them. I do remember Kayla regaining her hearing though – that was EPIC.
