SOD: Dattilo Back to Days to Alice Horton/Frances Reid tribute

SOD: Dattilo Back to Days

"Life is good," smiles Bryan Dattilo, who returns to Days of Our Lives on June 18th as Lucas Horton to help pay tribute to Alice Horton/Frances Reid.

In December, Bryan was let go from the show and he indicated that he didn't plan to ever come back. "I felt really close to Frances during the time I was there. I would always give her a really big, wet kiss on the cheek when she was in the makeup chair. I even did a striptease for her once. I loved her. When they asked me back for the funeral, I thought it was just fitting. I couldn't say no."

Dattilo says his return to the show has been surreal. "I saw a lot of the people I used to watch and work with on the show. I used to watch when Lisa Trusel was on; she came up and introduced herself to me. She was so sweet and I was like, 'I had the biggest crush on you when I was 13.' Bill and Susan were there. And Suzanne? Come on. How hot is that lady? Christie Clark had a bun in the oven and looked great. It was great to see her. But it feels like a different show. We were in the makeup room and you look around and it's a hybrid of Days and Passions. I was singing, 'Breathe in, breathe out' alot. It's not the Days I grew up on, but if it's working, that's all that matters."

As for whether or not he would ever consider returning to Days again, Dattilo reveals: "I love the show and I love my character. It would hard to just come in for birthdays and holidays because I feel like I have more to offer than that, but if I ever got a legit crack at it again, I would totally embrace it."

In the meantime, he's working construction. "I am building sound studios," reveals Dattilo. "It's weird because I'm going into places that I used to be employed at, like Sony. You're in the Sony commissary and someone does a double take at you. But it's cool. I'm not afraid of a hard day's work."

Oh, this so needs to be a permanent visit with an actual interesting storyline unlike the ones they are pedaling now.

He is on the cover and I understand that he has been constantly mentioned in the show so what is going on. Great that he is doing something while he worksat getting something else on tv. You go Bry!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tweets from a certain fanbase were saying he was bashing the Passions actors and they were saying something about coming back on his hands and knees. Funny how things look so different without spin.

Nice interview by Bryan

^^They just can't stop hating on the guy can they? Oh and Bry..it's not working...we ALL know it...but that's all good when Days ends up in last place I guess they'll figure it out. Oh, I love it how SOD has a totally misleading cover....of ALL those vets returning they have him on the cover and an article...AWESOME....maybe it's because even a mention of the guy being back for 6 epis will get viewers watching again and might actually sell more mags than a certain non couple featured on the cover? Yep.

Your soulmate understands and connects with you in every way and on every level, which brings a sense of peace, calmness and happiness when you are around them. And when you are not around them, you are all that much more aware of the harshness of life, and how bonding with another person in this way is the most significant and satisfying thing you will experience in your lifetime.

Good article. Typical misleading cover from Ms. Sloane's crew though.

I noticed a bit of spin on that too and he is actually saying the exact opposite about whether he would return to Days. He gave a very gracious answer that leaves the door open for the possibility but as he has said all along only if they give Lucas decent writing. And, I don't take the comment about Passions as a crack on the actors but rather the producer (who also came from Passions) and the way he has changed Days into a show that none of us can recognize anymore.

I love how some will spin anything...notice how he said he was in the
make-up room...maybe during the time he was getting ready there were 3 vets who had returned for the Alice epis and 3 former Passions actors.....and he commented on how weird that looked....it's his personal opinion which he's entitled to and frankly I'm glad he's honest....someone needs to be.

Comparing Days to Passions right now is very legitimate. Gary Tomlin was bound and determined to preserve that nightmare of a show, and he's succeeded, right down to the crappy ratings.

Bryan knows what he's talking about Days has turned into Passions with it's poor rating and everything they need to kick off Rafe and his sister and bring back the good old Days with Charactor we love.

Someone at another board commented that even Eric (Brady) has made a reference to , "Days of our Passions" at a fan event...so what's the big deal? it's because BD said it right? lol.

Gotta love Bryan.

Heck, I'm not even offended by his crack about Days & Passions, and I'm a huge Passions fan. He's able to have his own POV - we are all allowed to have them. Totally looking forward to his return!

I think a lot of people have been comparing Days to Passions for quite a while now and for good reason.

Oh by the way, thanks so much for posting this since I certainly wasn't willing to ever buy another issue of SOD no matter who is on the cover.

To borrow from Ellen D. last night, I couldn't be more proud of Bry if I birthed him myself. :D
Not that that is a great thought, actuallly, but my point (lol) is that I am always so proud of Bry. He is a class act, speaks the truth, doesn't LIE in interviews and kiss butt, and commands respect because he has earned it.

Love that he gave FR a striptease :D

and "if its working ..." ? ... umm, yeah, let's all refer to the ratings now, shall we? Yeah, notsomuch. But I don't really blame that entirely on the Passions crew ... I love EM, LH is pretty good, and she was lovely to meet in person (but her character SUCKS) ... no comment on the Rafester, but GG seems like fun ;P
Seriously though .. its a combination of bad choices happening on the show, not the smallest of which being the rapemance redeux ... and that isn't a personally biased opinion .. look at any board and read the comments from those who have stopped watching, 90% or more will be because of the rapist and his victim.

love it!!! It also makes me sooo happy that out of all the returning actors, they choose Bryan to lure in the sales. ;)

Great interview, it speaks for itself. No spins necessary.

No, it isn't just a biased opinion and I'm not even talking about the GA fans who post online, but the quiet vote from nearly 900,000 viewers who left the show since the rapemi stuff started. That's a lot bigger number than the total of all Days online posters combined. Also, it is a fact, not opinion, that ratings falter everytime the show airs scenes with EJ/Sami that even hint at possible "feelings"/flirting. While we all agree that no one couple or storyline makes or breaks the ratings, there is a definite, consistent and long time pattern of rapemi scenes equating to lower ratings and at this point, there is no denying that rapemi is the common denominator in that trend.

I know me too....thanks Rose for the scan and the article....gives us the 'full feel' of what we would be getting.....It's also great that they picked him and his pic out of ALL the Days returning vets.....let's see they could have picked Missy...or Christie....or Marybeth....I'm happy it's him.

You know when they put him on the cover its because they know he brings in the ratings. Loved the interview, loved the honesty and makes me love Bry even more. Can't wait to see him on screen but for now Days of our Passions I will continue to boycott.

LOL at the strip tease!

he's been very gracious in his interviews toward a show that his done him wrong...yay for him!

Even after all of these years that fanbase hasn't improved on their abilibty to spin. They need to learn to spin things that aren't in print. just reinforces their desperation to make people look bad.
