James Scott, interview with Michael Fairman, June 18, 2010

  • James Scott: Alison is just wonderful. I can’t think of a better way to spend your time than kissing Alison Sweeney. It’s just a perfect way to spend an afternoon. And if things do go south, then that will be the one thing I will miss most.

Is DOOL's Ian McAllister a Dimera?

I'd be laughing too!
There was a rumor a few weeks back that Ian McAllister's cane would show a symbol of the Phoenix. As we all know, the Phoenix is the symbol Stefano Dimera uses as his way of saying he always rises from the ashes. When Bo and Hope discovered the paperweight in Alice's things, they knew it came from Stefano because of the Phoenix on it.  I never did see the Phoenix on Ian's cane. That isn't really saying much because I tend to fast forward all of Ian's scenes since I find them incredibly boring and find Ian Buchanan to be a dreadful addition to the Days cast.  However, I don't think I missed the Phoenix on Ian's cane. It just wasn't there.

So, we're left with speculation.  Who is Ian McAllister? Is he working for Stefano? Does Ian know something that perhaps Stefano doesn't know in regards to the Dimera family tree? Perhaps Ian is Stefano's brother and EJ's father.  Wouldn't that be a hoot?  If the writers for Days of Our Lives made Ian Mcallister a Dimera and also EJ's father, I suppose I could handle the insufferable EJ-Is-Not-Stefano's-Son storyline. 

What do you think? Should Ian McAllister be a Dimera? Or should Days of Our Lives just send this actor packing with no ties to anyone in Salem? Do you like the idea of EJ being Ian's son?

  1. I hope Ian is a Dimera. I have heard Stefano is retiring and with Lexie dying and Chad refusing to be a Dimera we won't have anyone left with the Dimera name in town. Days needs the Dimera's. Ian should ditch the walking stick. (And that robe! LOL)

  2. I am not a fan of Ian...he looks like a lizard and acts like an old queen. Just the thought of the beautiful and hauty Kate in bed with him....ugh. and him a Dimera??? I don't think so. I'd rather Victor find out he was a Dimera. I'd rather John be EJ's father....

  3. I really hate that the writers did this to EJ and Stefano. It isn't right. I'm glad Joe Mascolo went on record saying he and James Scott hated it too. I hope it's some twisted game Stefano's playing with EJ and that Stefano is really still EJ's father
