Well, I hope Carson is more successful in his role than Nicholas Chavez has been as Spencer Cassadine on GH. The audience needs to give newbies, especially recasts, time to feel comfortable, etc. But nuSpencer just doesn’t even match visually with other cast members. His voice is flat and colorless, just the opposite of what Spencer is. And his antics aren’t helping matters. I imagine he’s on a contract and I hate to see anyone unemployed but I just haven’t seen any improvement yet. I hope I’m proven wrong. Good luck to Carson Boatman.
Wow. In total disagreement with you there and while I was wary of a Spencer recast (and yes, Nicholas Bechtel is a hard act to follow), I totally buy Nicholas Chavez in the role. I actually think he made the role his own in record timing. He has chemistry with everyone and he’s easy on the eyes. I actually find his voice charming. And there’s something very natural about his non verbal acting skills (I.e. when he sees Britt and motions for her to give him a hug, or when he rubs Nikolas’ shoulder when they embrace). Overall I think he’s an amazing recast for a grown up Spencer.
Yes, I like Nicholas Chavez as Spencer too, in GH. He is very cute, and has made the character his own. I’m also looking forward to seeing Johnny all grown up in Days. We should give newcomers a chance. But I really preferred Precious as Channel in Days.
While I still don’t like the new Spencer, I tend to agree about the new Paris on Days. I sure wish Paris would forget about “Horton” and find herself a nice guy. Maybe she will get back together with Theo when Ciara gets her memory back and she goes back to Ben.Hes got to be in la-la land if he thinks she wants to marry him for love.
I wish Mr. Boatman well in his new role.
As for the new Spencer…I think he’s doing fine and will continue to improve as he settles into the role. I loved the last actor who played the role, but they had to SOARs him to fit with the other teen trio pf actors. Let’s give him a chance, right?
Soaphound
Iam with you friend.As I said in another post, maybe he’s a better actor than we’re giving him credit for, because he’s really got me where as I can’t stand anything about him. He’s turned into a spoiled rich boy who thinks his family and friends are just there for his amusement to taunt, insult, or even destroy as he’s been doing with his dad and Ava’s lives with all his machinations and deceit. God, what a piece of work!
Thanks, Violet. I fear we’re in a minority but that doesn’t mean we’re wrong. Yes, nuSpencer looks cute from certain angles and has nice hair, if they ever find a right style for it. They’re trying all different hair partings! But that disembodied voice just irks me and throws me out of the scenes. Oh well, you can’t have everything.
OMG, he reminds of Scott Reeves when he was that age, what a cutie!

Serena Scott Thomas to Days of our Lives, But What Role Will She Play?
Look who’s coming to Salem next? In a tease on their official Instagram account, Days of our Lives has revealed that Serena Scott Thomas has been on set and will debut in an upcoming role, leaving many fans guessing just who might she play.
The English actress and documentary producer has previously starred in Diana, Her Story as Diane Prince of Wales, Dr. Molly Warmflash in the James Bond film The World Is Not Enough, and played the villainess ‘Watcher” in Buffy, the Vampire Slayer, and Bruce Willis’ wife in the film, Hostages among others.
Serena is the younger sister of Kristen Scott Thomas, best known for her Oscar-nominated role in The English Patient. Several DAYS fans are already weighing in that Serena will play Konstantine’s (John Kaeplos) wife.

However, NannyKat 63 may have it all figured out the best, when she posted, that not only will “Serena play Kostantine’s wife,” but the character “had an affair with Victor Kiriakis and got pregnant.” Thus, making Xander (Paul Telfer) her son. She went on to theorize, “Perhaps, And John and Steve will find her in the nick of time… and she’ll enter in time to stop the wedding of Maggie to him. Xander will find out his true identity then. The baby was given to Victor’s brother to be raised in Scotland.”

Sounds plausible to us! Another guess came from donnamoore_23 who said, “Ya’ll think he could be Bobberette ‘s mom or sister or .. SOMETHING to do with his story .. someone who can back up what trauma he went through to be so sick? 🤷🏼♀️ but I think y’all are right could be Katerina.”

Two DAYS stars, Tamara Braun (Ava) and Linsey Godfrey (Sarah) also shared comments on Serena Scott Thomas’ upcoming appearance on DAYS. Godfrey simply said, “YES!!!! while Braun add her guess, expressing, “Ava’s mum. Oh wait, her mom was killed by her dad. Or was she? 🤔”
So, what do you think? What role will Serena Scott Thomas play on Days of our Lives? Share your theories in the comment section below.
