Sydney Penny & Cody Longo Cast by DAYS for Carly’s Rehab Story and Exit! Photo Credit: Steven Bergman Big news out today from TV Guide on how Crystal Chappell’s character of Dr. Carly Manning will get through her drug dependency, and possibly usher out Chappell from the series, now that a few weeks ago Days of our Lives dropped Chappell when her contract expires in August. First comes the news that daytime favorite from All My Children and Santa Barbara, Sydney Penny has been cast to play Dr. Norman, who will work with Carly to overcome her drug addiction at the rehab center. And then DAYS had added Cody Longo (the former star of Make It or Break It) to the cast as Nicholas Alamain, Carly’s son! Acording to TVG, “After mother and son are reunited and Carly seems to be on the mend, look for Chappell — who has been fired along with several other Days stars — to be ushered off the series.” Look for Penny, to start airing on Days August 30. So it would seem from this that Chappell will be seen on DAYS at least into September. michaelfairmansoaps.com/news/sydney-penny-cody-longo-cast-by-days-for-carlys-rehab-story-and-exit/2011/06/23/

Hmm... I wonder if this means the drug addict SL is going to go on until the end of August? That seems like a long time for Jennifer to figure out Carly wasn't crushing up aspirin.
I am having a hard time remembering when Nicholas Alamain was on the show before. According to twitter he and Kate had an affair? Anything else I need to know? I will just go with the flow on this one.

He was played by Victor Webster and was smoking hot! He and Kate had an affair but that's all I can remember. He would be around Chloe's age, I think if not older, based on his last appearance but depending on this actor's age they may be making him younger.

@sos - As a child, Nicholas was raised by Vivian. I think he accidentally killed someone and Vivian covered it up. He was friends with Shawn Douglas Brady when they were children.
I'm looking forward to some interaction between Carly and Nicholas and it will be fun to see Melanie meet her brother for the first time. Today, Peter Reckell tweeted Molly Burnett about the great job she did with some emotionally charged scenes and I'm thinking this is what he was talking about.
I am not familiar with Sydney Penny (sounds like a character in a children's book or in a Beatles song). I wonder if she will play a psychiatrist and whether she will stay when Carly is gone. Oh wait, another therapist is returning to Salem, or so I've heard.

I IMDB'd this kid. I could get used to seeing him on the show. Wasn't he majorly soras'd to be played by Victor Webster and to have the affair with Kate? Now they are deSORASing him,?

Yes, I think Nicholas and Kate had an affair in the 1990s. I'm not even sure Philip was born yet. So Nicholas should be about 40 by now if he was in his 20s then. Oh, I hope there are scenes with Nicholas and Kate!

DESORASing just like Will. Who is finally graduatung High school after 6, 7, 8 years there. I lost track.
Sydney Penny was on Santa Barbara the last couple years before it ended. She was in a popular pairing on AMC for a few years too.
