Jason47's Press Release on the "New" Days

The "transition" episodes written by the new writing team of Marlene McPherson and Darrell Ray Thomas (episodes # 11679 and # 11680) were taped on Tuesday, July 12 and Wednesday, July 13 and will air on Friday, September 23 and Monday, September 26. Along with the returns of fan favorites Matthew Ashford (Jack), Christie Clark (Carrie), Deidre Hall (Marlena), Drake Hogestyn (John) and Patrick Muldoon (Austin), as well as appearances by Bill Hayes (Doug) and Susan Seaforth Hayes (Julie), these special episodes will also feature a brand new set: Horton Town Square. Reports from the set seem to indicate that the new set will be dedicated to the memory of Dr. Tom Horton and Alice Horton (original cast members Macdonald Carey and Frances Reid), and that there will be many mentions of Tom and Alice in the episodes. Also, for the first time since the new budget took effect at the beginning of 2009, the studio is taping past 6PM. Up until 2009, it was common for "Days" to tape well into the late night hours, but due to budget constraints, the show has not taped past 6PM in the past two-and-a-half years. More information will be posted as soon as it is available.

Thanks for posting. I am certainly looking forward to the new set! It should be fun!
I wonder if they are going to use the old Salem Place one. Where ballistix and stuff was.

[karebr13]

It looks like this big event that is being taped over the next three days maybe some kind of dedication to the Horton Town Square.

[ghoulgirl]

I can't wait to see it! It will be refreshing to have a new set!

[MrsM]

Yeah for familiar faces and new places!!

[mae00]

YAY!!!! So glad that the new writers are doing something to honor Tom & Alice Horton!!!

[DancingDays]

New budget? Does that mean they got more money? Is that some show of faith from NBC?

[karebr13]

Actually Corday is investing some of his own money in the show so he is seriously trying to repair the damage that DH and GT did these past few years.

[DancingDays]

Wow! That's incredible! Too bad it took so long for Dorkay, I mean Corday, to wake up.

[ghoulgirl]

I've been hoping for some other older and/or new sets too. Like Alice's kitchen, a place for Marlena and John, What happened to the set of Stephanie's apartment I wonder...

[fluffysmom]

John and Marlena will need somewhere to live unless they are taking Carly's room at the Salem Inn!

I am looking forward to these scenes and the end of DH's stories!

[jaysdelina]

I have to say I'm impressed with Corday.He seems to really be trying to make things up to the fans.I LOVE that they're going to dedicate this new "place"to Tom and Alice!I'm so thrilled that "Gram"is still mentioned now and again.Definitely looking forward to these episodes.
