INTERVIEW: DAYS OF OUR LIVES star Alison Sweeney (Sami)
"It is so sad for me that Bryan is leaving DAYS. I'm sad for the show and the characters. They haven't had a great story for Lucas for a while now, and Bryan is a really talented actor. I'm sorry Days couldn't make the most of that. I don't know how they'll address it with Sami; I'll just remind myself that it's a 'business' and that we're all professionals. 17 years is a long time to work with someone. He will always be my friend."
I think the economy and the ever more competitive marketplace have lent to Daytime, as well as every aspect of entertainment struggling. If anything prime-time soaps only reminds executives how viable the medium is. That audiences still want drama and good love stories."
