As the three villains: Orpheus (George DelHoyo), Xander (Paul Telfer) and Clyde (James Read) rip through the town of Salem and cause havoc for all of their enemies, it is young Theo (Kyler Pettis), who is about to take them on!

It all goes down after a disraught Theo is reeling from his father Abe Carver (James Reynolds) being shot, and his best friend, Joey (James Lastovic) being kidnapped.  So Theo armed with a gun is put in harm’s way as he is tries to avenge his loved one’s peril, but he may just find himself in life-threatening peril instead!

Meanwhile, it’s the showdown between decade old rivals, Orpheus and John (Drake Hogestyn)! What will happen when these two face-off in the park?

Watch this week’s promo from Days of our Lives after the jump. Then let us know, who you think will get shot? And what you think of the story twist that has Theo in hero-mode! Comment below.

this PAST YEAR on days:
NO ONE CARES!!!!!!!!!!
YES… I hope theo gets shot and killed along with all the rest of the shitty younger set,
the return of eric cant come fast enough along with the unfortunatley only brief return of carrie and austin which i hope turns long term
days need s the former headd writer of days already… the past year on days has been the worst and i have little faith dena hegley will be any better than the last two times she headwrote… hopefully three strikes and she ll be out

Please don’t speak for me, damien. I care. We all have opinions. So, do you wish Theo to be shot and killed because he’s black or because he’s autistic?

My opinion is the actor is doing a fine job as Theo. That’s not bad acting, it’s a realistic portrayal of an autistic teen on the higher end of the spectrum.

While watching Kyler, I was thinking how hard it must be to play someone with autism. I think he is doing a good job too.

I don’t necessarily love the teen stories and certainly don’t care for Vivian who plays Ciara. They have needed to recast that role for quite a while.

why would you assume i m referring to his condition or his skin colour?!…
did i allude to any of that in my post or before you got all pissy and paranoid did you read the rest of my post about the younger set as a whole?!
i dont judge anyone about the way they were born but it sounds like you re doing a fine job doing the judging… im simply airing my frustrations about the direction a show i truly love going down the drain …and if im speaking on any ones behalf its the almost million viewers who have tuned out, mr forever days

I hope it’s Ciara.

Hey Mo…ME, TOO!!!!! As far as I’m concerned, Ciara’s time IS UP!!!!! BYE BYE BYE!!!!!

Have a good one, Mo.

🙂

please…let ciara show up and a startled theo shoots her…

The poor actress, she is in way over her head. TPTB should send the entire teen scene off-air. None of them seem to have the experience to carry such emotional storylines. They really should be seen and not heard, and not on every day. They are more filler-IMO. None of the storylines are interesting. Blind leading the blind-in writing, it seems.

She is fine in short scenes telling her mom things like “I am worried about Theo” but her acting range isn’t strong enough to hold her own storyline together. For the time being, they should relegate the character to a small supporting role around her mom and relatives. I do not wish to be unkind, so I will say that the young actress who currently portrays Ciarra just simply needs more seasoning.

This story is embarrassingly bad even for Days which has been scraping the bottom of the creative barrel for 18 months now. Dena is partial to Theo character because of her personal circumstances, but the actor, along with those playing Joey, Claire and Ciara are so poor that it makes a bad story so much worse. And I feel for these young folks who are so miscast and in over their heads, and yes, even the actress who plays Claire is super green and only stands out as acceptable because she’s placed with non-actors in the other teen roles. But overall, the story is beyond laughable. They went from Griffith’s dark, suicidal depression stories to Higley’s scooby doo cartoons. Aye. And how are these executives still collecting salaries: Meng and Alaar are completely incompetent. But we know the Trump of soaps at the top of the ticket is ultimately responsible: Corday. As Betty and Ted spin…

Agreed, Tony, albeit I love Theo. He stands out as the flower amongst the weeds. He is an exceptional young actor with an unfortunate role. I can’t even follow these storylines, any longer. Sad!!!!
I wish TPTB would make up their minds about Aiden. On one hand, he was killed and buried. Then, it turns out it was actually a look-alike imposter who was the dead bad guy, thanks to Andre??
The real Aiden had been held prisoner…..so, he comes back with good intentions, or so it seemed. But, lo and behold, as soon as Hope ( who belongs in jail for murder, with Rafe, as an accomplice after the fact) rejects him, Aiden turns evil; subtly blackmailing her to either submit, or else.
The look on Hope’s face; the wide-eyed stupefied stare, was just that; stupid. Yeah, she looked really scared……
I ask, why turn a completely nice guy to Dr. Jekyll with a Mr. Hyde complex? So to throw Hope and Rafe in each other’s arms?
Maybe Theo will shoot Hope just because. LOL.

Celia, my dear…on today’s DOOL episode, the moment that Rafe and Hope (together) appeared on my TV screen, I IMMEDIATELY pressed the Mute button on my remote control. Yep. Hey…I am all for May/December romances, but, Rafe/Hope (for me) are a TOTAL SNOOZE-FEST!!!!! And don’t get me started on Aiden #1/Aiden #2…LOL!!!!! Make. It. Stop.

Have a good night, my friend.

i do eat my scooby snacks while i watch…and it helps-‘Scooby Dooby Do!’-lol

I do agree but i still feel the escapees picked up a bit…instead of aging the children which meant more story.which is wasted on these poorly acting teen set..Days should had concentrated more on the adults and young set it already had like JJ, Paige, Bev and Rory who were ten times more interesting and can act…and had Theo been 13 or 14 avenging his father’s shooting would had been controversial but more riveting and interesting!!!

I love the storyline and Theo is a teen standout as is Claire. Joey has made great strides too. Ciara should be recast.

Claire is growing on me. Ciara should just not open her mouth, period. Joey isn’t doing it for me either, 4ever, my friend of friends. LOL.
But, we agree on Theo. He is the only sorased teen I really, really love…have since day one. He’s good looking, and such a talent.

I thought of a new name for VJ (Ciara), Celia…Abercrombie Zombie, LOL!

I have to agree with you 4everDays about two of the actors. The young man playing Theo and the young woman playing Claire are doing good work. Both of them are alert and present in their scenes and playing their characters. I really enjoy both of them. The rest of the teens can go at anytime.

It would be so nice if They got rid of that whole younger set.. This “young” storyline sucks. The girl who plays Ciara is the worst actress on the show. Unbearable to watch.

Oh no. Bad plot twist in a frustrating storyline. Also if days allows hope to get back with Aidan to stay out of jail, this show will be yoadt

Wow, I can’t believe the nasty comments. I just hope the actors aren’t reading this. I know Damien, Mo, Jimh, and Tony that all of you are so perfect. It must be so hard to be all of you….

We are here to comment, Mark. Good or bad….
Perfection has nothing to do with it. Have you even taken an English Lit class? The point is ……constructive criticism. I do not ignore the elephant in the room.
I remember you….I remember the personal remarks to me. So, do not call the kettle black. Not fair.

I think you have the wrong Mark. I very rarely comment on this site and I have never commented on anything you have said. On that note I just feel there is always so much negativity. The younger actors are trying. Remember Sami was green in the beginning too. BTW, yes I have taken an English Literature class. LOL

@Mark.
Hi, Mark,
If I have mistaken you for another Mark, I do, wholeheartedly apologize. Perhaps it was the Mark who spells his name with a diminuative “m”. This was back in April, where his comments had been very scathing. So, please accept my sincere regrets. A very inane April Fool’s kind of joke? Yet, very insulting.
As far as the English class bit, I was trying to be facetious. But, sadly, my stupid jokes/sarcasm never take root. LOL. Forgive me? I forgot to insert the usual ‘ LOL’. Double LOL.
Nevertheless, I still think, we have the right to express our opinions; likes and dislikes, about actors, plots and substance of a show.
It is because I love the show that I, and others, vehemently object to the ‘deflated’ storylines DOOL is offering, for a loooong while now.
I was a tot when Alison Sweeney joined the cast, Mark…LOL. But, one cannot compare the stories of back then, to the stories now. I remember the show, as in a dream, watching with my Gran.
Yes, Alison was young, but the stories built her character, as everyone else’s. There is no MEAT on any of the stories. Everything is soooo convoluted…I cannot make heads or tails about any of them….unravel any of the plots or get invested in any of these kids. Only Theo deserves any kind of ‘clamor’, or accolades.
I do not want ANY of the remaining shows to fail. These soaps are part od our lives. It would be the tragic end of an era.
Later.

i’m not disappointed

for the first time duo out the gate …. Ryan Quan and Dena Higley

come on… it’s got to start somewhere… and end

I do not think this is dark… I LIKE ALL 3 of the guys acting skill

I like the dynamic difference these three bring

at the very least… we are getting the whole cast involved

September 6th was the start of the Quan / Higley START GATE

like GH… as with DAYS… i’m watching to keep up

with both show… I won’t turn them off

I want these shows to TURN…..

Kyler Pettis as Theo

Lexie’ son…. dang it

of the 4 SORAS teens… Kyler is the more comfortable one… in front of the camera and in all his relationships… even if he is at times shy…. which Kyler pulls off

endearingly… gawd… he’s Abe and Lexie son

it’s a sweet thing he’s got going with Claire

when the lights went out in Salem… and Theo was with Arianna and Thomas

Theo got caught up in the “excitement” and his REEL surprised me… “no no, Theo” Keep it together

which was a surprising turn for me… I so wanted Lexie spirit to show up

Kyler Pettis gets to REEL

Abe and Chad will be right by his side

DAYS tries to be exciting but it’s not. It’s campy, wimpy in it’s story telling and featuring the worst part of the cast. The teen actors are AWFUL. How much do people have to say it before the powers that be listen. The new head writing team is no different than the last. The stories are mired in mediocrity. Three criminals holding a whole town hostage with each of them pretending to be in disguise. They aren’t in disguise. The kindergarten class at Salem Academy could identify them. Here is what needs to happen: Marlena is possessed once again and throws each of the 3 villains into the fiery pit of hell. For good measure she throws in Patch because he looks like a cheap porn actor stuck on an 80’s film set. Deimos discovers that he isn’t a Kiriakis but rather he is John’s long lost father. Brain damage caused Deimos to think he was younger than he actually is. Hope gets a little angry again and knocks off Aidan and Phillip – because he is just annoying. Nicole is lying in bed and cries out “Oh Daniel I wish you were here” and the camera flashes to Daniel in the shower, and he says, “I am here Nicole, you must have been having some crazy nightmare.” Sonny is sitting in Paul’s bed after a crazy night together. The doorbell rings and it’s Will. Will tells Paul that he isn’t John’s son after all but rather Sonny’s brother and that they have just been incestuous together. Sonny has a nervous breakdown but after a few months of therapy realizes that he still loves Will. Rafe leaves town to become a cowboy in Montana. Gaby becomes a model and appears on Project Runway. Kayla decides she isn’t a doctor any more and becomes an escort and her first client is Abe. Caroline finally kicks the bucket making her last bucket of the chowder and leaves her recipe to Maggie, in her will, as an apology for all the ways she made her feel inferior with Victor. Andre decides to give up being a bad guy and finally admits that he really wants to audition for RuPaul’s Drag Race. RuPaul makes a guest appearance. Roman and Kate get back together but not before Kate has a summer fling with John Travolta. When DAYS finally gets their act together and follows my story line suggestions I may start watching again. But right now it’s painful to watch even for ten minutes during it’s air time.

Hey Mateo…to me, your ideas make W-A-Y MORE SENSE than the current (G-A-G!!!!!!!!!!) DOOL writing!!!!! Dude…oh, how I WISH you were one of the DOOL writers!!!!! TOTALLY!!!!!

Have a good one, dude.

HEY if they would follow these suggestions I would gladly not complain anymore. But I cannot take Ciarra’s incessant whining nor Claire groaning about her singing career even though her voice sounds like air escaping from a party balloon.
I think they need a Transgender character on the show and her name could be Kate Lynn Jenkins but she used to be a famous athlete. It turns out that she (when he was a he) was involved with Paul (the once famous pro ball player) and when Sonny finds out about this, he goes crazy and tries to commit suicide – but he is stopped by a mysterious stranger who turns out to be the reincarnation of Will!
But instead…..we have….(yawn) Nicole telling Deimos that she knows he is disappointed in not being the father of Chloe’s baby…..(yawn)….ZZZZZ……

Mateo…where Caroline is concerned, I’ll put it like this: If Caroline were to be killed off, oh, say, ‘tomorrow’ (or whenever), it wouldn’t exactly sadden me. Sorry, but, to me, NOTHING about Caroline makes sense ANYMORE!!!!! NONE!!!!! Bottom Line Here: Caroline’s time IS UP!!!!!

Just saying……….

Take care, dude.

They should have him acidently shoot Adain he,s one of the most wothless person to ever been on the show I cant stand him

Ciara Alice Brady.

Who’s played Ciara Alice Brady over the years?
Vivian Jovanni (October 30, 2015 – present)
Lauren Boles (2008 – September 30, 2015)
Dakoda and Danica Hobbs (2007 – 2008)

It’s pretty clear and obvious…. the recast SORAS Teen… played by Vivian Jovanni has to go. unfortunately

she’s been given a year to parlay something …. ANY thing

Ryan Quan and Dena Higley… should right the wrong.. and simply bring back Lauren Boles

this would bring Kristian Alfonso ; ALIVE

RETURN the SORAS Chase… for his father Aiden

Wallah two families that belong together

forget the rape…. I truly think by bringing back Lauren Boles… this will right ALOT

Do you mean to tell me the poor, unfortunate young woman who is trying, unsuccessfully, to play Ciara has been doing so for year????????????? Clearly, TPTB at Days are just as asleep as she is when she’s doing her scenes. We know they have no respect for their audience. They also have no respect for their show.

“…TPTB at Days are just as asleep as she is ”

I lay all the blame on Betty and Ted Corday’ – son – Ken Corday

Who’s niece IS this actress anyway? The producer’s? I think they just need to cut her scenes way down, just have her telling Hope that she wants to go up to her room and study for a while, or scenes like that. Give her very little screen time. She is fine in quick supportive scenes but really she can’t be the center of attention, the show is bad enough as it is.

Llanviewer717…AGREED!!!!! Oh…as far as I’m concerned, TIIC at DOOL have NO RESPECT for ANYONE ELSE…PERIOD!!!!!

Have a good one.

I know I have expressed my opinion before, but this ‘villain’ storyline bringing down the town is just not what I want to watch on Days. The actors are all trying and doing the best they can with the material, so no criticism of them just not the type of storyline I want to see on Days. Just expressing my opinion and vote for the record. It seems I am not a lone in this, but if others like it, and ratings are up, I can respect that. I suppose even though it is actually sad, it could be viewed as humorous how it is done (so bad that it is good), so may be it could be funny to watch even though for me I put it on for a few minutes and have had enough. With that said, I always wish Days the best, love the cast, and give the writers credit for their hard work I am just more interested in storylines around relationships, and contemporary human drama, not revenge, mean, ugly, dark storylines. Look for soaps for light romantic escape, etc. Enough dark, ugly, meaness on the news.

Just want to add to my last comment. I like Theo, and glad that he will be a hero, but just not into this type of storyline or any shooting, violence, etc. on soaps or TV for that matter. Would be glad and love to have seen Theo as a hero in another capacity.

4 ever Days, MO, Celia , and everyone who thinks Theo’s character is doing a wonderful job, I totally agree. He is the best of the teens on the show. I love this young man; perhaps, the show can find some other teens to support Theo’s great work.

I’ll admit it. I don’t watch Days. However I note that it has it’s loyal viewers commenting on MF. So I have been trying to see the appeal. But when I see a header to this page about guns and killing, or suicides in the past, it’s not my idea of another soap I would add for my “escape” in the afternoon. Already too much crime and killing on GH, and the real world news.

I agree!

Days of our Lives Star, Greg Vaughan, Gives Health Update and Thanks Everyone for Their Support

Greg Vaughan (Eric, Days of our Lives, ex-Lucky, GH, and ex-Diego, Y&R) provided an update on his health on Sunday, March 17th. Vaughan had previously shared that he had become ill during a trip with his sons to Colorado, and had developed altitude sickness when he was having trouble breathing accompanied by terrible headaches and landed in the urgent care.

Now on St. Patrick’s Day, Greg took to his Instagram and shared how he is feeling now, and to thank everyone for their love and support.  As it turned out, Vaughan was diagnosed with high altitude pulmonary edema, commonly known as HAPE. However, he is on the mend slowly and surely.

In his new video post, the DAYS favorite started by expressing, “I just felt such an appreciation and gratitude for everything. . reaching out. Your prayers have been felt. It’s been a struggle, but I’m over the top. And, taking this moment just to say I didn’t realize the things that I was going through. My (original) post was simply just to educate, put some information out there and some things that I was feeling, just share that information and the struggle that I was going through, which I didn’t quite understand. And it wasn’t because I’m stubborn or just because I’m a father, a man, and didn’t want to go to a doctor. It is just something I thought was so minor that I could overcome it, just by taking care of myself.”

The Daytime Emmy winner then revealed his actual diagnosis, “So, basically my situation was high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE). With some good friends, doctors that had reached out to me, it kind of gave me some understanding on the aftermath, which was very, very beneficial.”

“But I’ve been resting, taking care of myself even though I live in a hamster wheel,” said the dad of three teenaged boys. “I gotta get up and, you know, do my normal domesticated stuff, eventually. I’m tired of laying down in this bed, but, I am feeling much better.”

Talking on his confusion of trying to understand what could have been ailing him, Vaughan expressed, “I couldn’t quite figure it out, even though I was emphasizing and professing to my children going on our spring break getaway about hydration. I professed it. But, even though I was acting on it, it had a greater effect on me, and for which I did not even think, because my head was such in pain, and I was in a very bad state of mind – not being able to be out there with my kids on the mountain, enjoying their time, as well. I thought I was doing the right thing. Unfortunately, my lungs were full of fluids and my head was in severe pain and even migraine pills didn’t even help. So, I just want anybody that goes into the Colorado Mountains to know, it is no joke. It is this very serious thing which I guess is why they call it the Mile High City.”

Greg had a mountain of ‘thank you’s’ to give for the outreach he received from his original post, “For everybody internationally, wherever you are, I love you and I appreciate you and just the time and the thoughts that you’ve shared with me,” said Vaughan. “I didn’t realize that it would make such an impression on so many people around the world. I feel tremendously loved and I can’t say it enough. I’m good. And I appreciate you.”

The actor concluded his video with, “To all the family and friends that have reached out to me, man, it means the world. So take care of yourself, enjoy your spring break with your families. It’s Saint Patty’s Day, obviously. I wish I could be out there.” Vaughan added, “I feel loved and touched and I can’t emphasize that enough. I’ll take better care of myself, promise you will do the same.” Before he signed off, Greg shared, “Just know, that I’m alive and well and breathing, and I’m sore. So, be well, take care. I mean it. Thank you, tremendously.”

Glad to know that Greg has been on the mend, and shared his appreciation for everyone that reached out to him during this trying time? Comment below.

Days of our Lives Star Greg Vaughan Shares Sudden Health Scare: “I Truly Feel Like I Work & Live in a Soap Opera!”

What started out as an adventure with his sons, quickly turned into a nightmare for Days of our Lives Daytime Emmy winner, Greg Vaughan (Eric Brady).

In a series of Instagram posts, Vaughan shared the sudden health crisis he found himself in.  The images show Greg with an oxygen tank to help him breathe.

The actor began to fill people, sharing, “I’ve said more than a few times, I truly feel like I work & live in a Soap Opera! 🤪 this trip was nothing short of another great Vaughan adventure!”

He went on to say that on a father and son Colorado spring break trip, he began to feel shortness of breath, feeling tired and with a headache and after two days of hoping he would feel better, Vaughan finally went to an Urgent Care to get checked out.

Photo: GVaughanIG

“I finally surrendered & went to urgent care and to my shock I learned that I was experiencing severe altitude sickness.” Vaughan admitted. “My Blood Oxygen was at 54% & my lungs were full of fluids! Blood oxygen, also known as oxygen saturation, represents the percentage of hemoglobin in your red blood cells that is carrying oxygen. Most people have an oxygen level of 95-100%….”

Providing more detail to his health scare, Greg shared, “Well, 4hrs later, a couple of bags of IV & oxygen tank strapped to my face, I was told that I needed to immediately get off the mountain! However I couldn’t, we still had another day to go & wanting the boys to enjoy their last day on the hill tops! I opted to go home with an oxygen tank, a good laugh for everyone, and I know will follow, but my boys looked after their old man & fortunately they had friends on this trip!”

Photo: JPI

The experience of altitude sickness in the Colorado Rockies gave Vaughan a bit of a new perspective, “In all seriousness, no matter your age, and all the times I’ve ⛷️ & 🏂 in my lifetime, Colorado Rockies is no joke! As they say, ‘ take a breathe and smell the roses!’ That is truly something we need to remember & appreciate! #recover”

Share your well-wishes to Greg as he continues to be on the mend via the comment section below.
