A blast from the past. Loving it

Thanks Kat, JS, Poirot and Jason. A nice walk down memory lane.

I'm wondering if it has been Drew all along, and not Shane, and he sent them all on a wild goose chase?

 

[Just Samantha]

According to that one spoiler article, no. It appears (unless the article info is incorrect) Drew is involved with the Orwell/microchip thing. He and Jennifer cross paths.

 

[Poirot]

And also read that Drew and Shane do not cross paths at all. Charles Shaughnessy (Shane/Drew) says this is the first time he has ever interacted (had lines with) Melissa Reeves (Jennifer). And he will be involved with Jen in destroying Orwell.

 

[Just Samantha]

It is funny to think they've both been connected to the show since the 80's, but the two characters never really interacted. (except for weddings and other parties)

It's a shame Drew and Shane won't be interacting with each other. It was funny how exasperated Shane would get with Drew.

I'm wondering if it has been Drew all along, and not Shane, and he sent them all on a wild goose chase?

I was thinking the same thing, especially after Shane's smile today when he showed up on-screen. Just a little too cat-ate-the-canary for me.

I remember when Drew was originally on as well, and while it sometimes was confusing (for my then-young mind) it was fantastic to watch!

 

[Just Samantha]

Unless the spoiler article is wrong, Shane is in Prague. But Drew somehow ends up in Salem and works with Jennifer.

According to the article:

This time around, he has a completely different look from Shane and doesn’t even share a story with him. Actor Charles Shaughnessy (Shane/Drew) told Soap Opera Digest he knew he’d be pulling double duty on DAYS since last spring, and Drew finally airs next Wednesday.

Here's a picture they used. If this is Drew (on the right), then it was definitely Shane in Prague.

A double role would be intriguing.

SOD has been wrong several times in the very recent past. They could also only be spoiling part of the story.

 

[ErasofDiMeras]

Maybe this Drew will lead to Andrew Donovan to be cast and on canvas already. I'm still shocked the writers can't think of anything yet

Very interesting that Drew's story eventually ties back to the Prague group.

I don't remember Drew at all but I was in high school then so I missed a lot (we didn't have DVR's back then and VCR's were hard to use).
