Days Of Our Lives
Another hunk coming to DAYS, but who will it be?
Days of our Lives looks to be adding to the “hottie” quotient as it turns 45 years old this November. The NBC sudser just recently put out a casting call looking to fill the new contract role of Paul — a 35 to 45-year-old male, who is described as having “gorgeous good looks, effortless charm and a sense of humor. Guys want to be him and women want to love him. He has integrity, a rugged masculinity and an artistic side.” The soap is seeking well-established actors only for this new series regular.
So any ideas from well-known soap stars from the past? Or, sexy male stars anywhere? Let us know and we can compile a wish list at On-Air On-Soaps.
Days Of Our Lives
DAYS Camila Banus Delivers The ‘Power Performance of the Week’
The angst, drama, tears, and revenge continued this week on NBC’s Days of our Lives with the stirring portrayal of grief-stricken young woman; who is hell-bent on making everyone around her suffer for the loss of her husband in a fatal gunshot that left him brain-dead. Of course, we are talking about Camila Banus (Gabi), who turned in bravura performances this week, and there are four moments that really stood out to us that showed the range and depth of Banus’ work.
In the hospital chapel, Gabi talks to God and prayed to him that he will make Stefan (Brandon Barash) whole again. There has been one through-line for Gabi throughout her life – she seems to have everything and everyone she loves taken away from her, even if some of the decisions she makes along the way have a cause/effect that leaves her feeling completely alone, and ready to lash out at the world for what has transpired. In the chapel, she asks God through her tears, “Why do you hate me so much?” Gabi tells God she went to Sunday school as a little girl and still she has lost God and her husband. Gabi cannot even get herself to look at Stefan’s things when Sonny (Freddie Smith) and Will (Chandler Massey) try to share them with her as she slaps the envelope out of their hands.
In another heartbreaking scene, Gabi is in the bed she shared with Stefan. She flashes to kissing the love of her life. Next, Gabi breaks down in tears, and throws things around in the bedroom before slumping to the floor. She sobs and says, “Why did you give me your heart, Stefan, if you weren’t going to be around to love me with it?”

Later, Gabi talks to Stefan in her sleep as she hugs his pillow. When she wakes up she cries as Kate (Lauren Koslow) arrives to check on her. Gabi lets Kate have it, and at first blames Kate for the whole mess with Stefan. Gabi lashes out that if it wasn’t for Stefan getting in between Kate’s feud with Vivian (Robin Strasser), he’d still be alive. Kate knows Gabi is in despair and hugs her. Then, Gabi channels her angst towards Lani (Sal Stowers) promising to make her suffer.
And on Friday’s episode, Gabi is ramping us some sort of revenge plan promising Stefan his legacy will live on. Earlier, Gabi was present with Lani and Eli (Lamon Archey) when Kayla (Mary Beth Evans) informed them that Julie (Susan Seaforth Hayes) will need a special pacemaker, even after receiving Stefan’s heart. Somehow, Gabi found a file on Visionary Bionics, the company that makes this unique medical device, and recalls Kayla saying she’ll do the procedure on Julie tomorrow. Gabi makes a mysterious call. What is she about to do?
Through all of the emotional drama, Banus sustained a level of performance that is no easy feat. That is why Michael Fairman TV names Camila’s work The Power Performance of the Week.
Let us know if you agree with our pick, and what you thought of Camila’s performances, and what you think Gabi might do next, via the comment section below.

TODAY: Ron Carlivati’s Dad Appears on DAYS
Be on the lookout on Friday’s October 18th episode of Days of our Lives for one of the shows “superfans” who pops in Salem. That is when the father of DAYS head writer, Ron Carlivati appears as an extra on the NBC soap opera.
Carlivati Sr., who is very proud of his son, looks to be donning a medical lab coat as a physician in a photo shared on social media along with Kayla (Mary Beth Evans), one of Salem’s most busy and most respected doctors.
Ron told SOD about his dad appearing on the show that he writes: “It’s funny because I’ve been in soaps for over 20 years and my dad would watch to see my name on the credits but rarely get into the show. Somehow, I don’t know what clicked in for him, he’s obsessed with Days of our Lives. He does not miss it.”
As to how his dad became an extra for the day: “We were at the studio and Albert Alarr, our co-executive producer, comes up and meets my parents and turns to my dad and says, ‘We’re gonna be shooting some scenes in the hospital next. How would you like to be in them?’ I honestly had no idea this was coming. I also fainted.”
Make sure to check out today’s episode of Days of our Lives for this fun moment with Ron’s dad! Comment below.

Greg Vaughan.
How about Terrell Tilford (Greg) OLTL, Grayson McCouch (Dusty) ATWT , Bailey Chase(Chris) ATWT . I vote for Terrell. He can act and is really cute. LOL!!!!
What iis Vincent Izarry up to? Hope needs a new man. As a former Bope fan the past year has disillusioned me completely and I no longer buy the crap that DOOL bigwigs like Ken Corday want to sell us off screen that Bo & Hope are an enduing super couple. They are just aa joke now. They can write whatever stories they want for Bo & Carly or kill them off I no longer care about BO. Bo and Carly are an ugly and truly disgusting couple. Hope can make a new super couple. Vincent has my vote if he’s free.
I wish Josh Logan was available. I’d like a younger man for Hope.
Throwing out the age thing. Days already HAD this ACTOR & CHARACTER in DRAKE HOGESTYN = “Gorgeous good looks, effortless charm and a sense of humor. Guys want to be him and women want to love him. He has integrity, a rugged masculinity and an artistic side.” As the emcee at Days 45th Celebration Panel pointed out DRAKE & JOHN BLACK ARE ICONIC. If Days is seeking a well-established actors only for this new series regular – Well whom better than DRAKE. BRING BACK DRAKE NOW, the time is right! We have been too long withtout DRAKE on our Days Tv Screens.
they can bring Bryan Dattilo back as a new charecter,
why do they keep bring on new people,we want our old favorites back,
NO more triangles,,,,
Days bring back fan favorites,I have been watching ever sence its been on the air,and I dont give a-rats0ass about EJ,so he is bmad,OH BooWoo,the writers need to fine a new obsession ,, EJ Sami and Rafe is so old no one cares.
Sounds like Grayson McCouch to me….he’d be perfect for the role!
— ‘gorgeous good looks, effortless charm and a sense of humor. Guys want to be him and women want to love him. He has integrity, a rugged masculinity and an artistic side.’ — GRAYSON MCCUCH, without a doubt!
I miss him, with ATWT being cancelled… and we need him back on our screen!!!
Grayson has a huge fanbase, in The States and in The Netherlands and because of that, casting him would bring a lot of new viewers to DOOL. That’s what we call a win-win situation!!!
Greg Vaughan
I would add Greg Vaughan and Michael Parks as candidates.
Jason Gerhardt
Greg Vaughn would be awesome… he’s so hot but i have no idea who’d they’d pair him with.
Grayson Mccouch, sexiest man on TV!!!!! …….
Grayson McCouch would be perfect for the role. The character’s description fits him to a T. He’s a fine actor who is definitely easy on the eyes.
STOP LOOKING!!!
If you ask me, there’s just one guy for the part and that’s Grayson McCouch!!!
Grayson McCouch! I even wonder why his name doesn’t pop up in your head once you wrote the description of the new character! lol
Who else but Grayson McCouch!!!
it should be grayson mccouch he is an amazing actor and he should be on dool i miss him on atwt as dusty and julie pinson janet they were a hot couple on atwt dool should bring them on dool together back as a couple
here the link to grayson mccouch website
http://mccouch.webs.com/
here the link to dusty and janet atwt youtube channel to see grayson mccouch and julie pinson as this hot sexy couple
http://www.youtube.com/user/thelookoflove1
I’d love to see Grayson McCouch in the role. The description of it fits him perfectly. He’s been sorely missed since As The World Turns was cancelled. It would be wonderful to have him back in a venue like this where he’s proven himself to be a star.
Grayson McCouch!!!
I haven’t watched Days of Our Lives in years but if Grayson McCouch was a cast member, I would definitely be a Days fan once again. He is perfect for the role. There is no one better.
I think it should be Michael Fairmen ,what an attractive man .
greg vaughn yes please he gorgeous and dreamy.
Grayson Mccouch or Terrell Tillford
Without a doubt, Grayson McCouch.
