Hogan Sheffer, the new Head Writer for Days gave a lengthy interview with Daniel Coleridge of TV Guide Online. In it he revealed that EJ Wells is a DiMera, but not which DiMera. That is a big twist I think. He also has said EJ is behind the Black Glove and...tada...EJ and Kate will start a hot affair!
James will soon be busy at Days!!! I am so excited and revved up.

I've heard from several sources that EJ= Elvis Dimera, Stefano and Susan Banks son. Although the age is really wrong.

Yeah, Will was born in 95 and Elvis was born in 97. But with SORASing, that little bit of history goes right out the window. If EJ=Elvis is true, then this would be the most extreme case of SORASing I've ever seen.

But Phillip was also born in 95. Belle in 93 and Shawn in 86 and now all three are the same age, so Days has done weird SORASing before

I know, but this would top that IMO. I mean if it's true that he's Elvis, then he would be Sami's age when he should be 2 years YOUNGER than Will. That's soaps for ya.

Last week, this TVGuide.com soap pundit had the great pleasure of lunching with Hogan Sheffer, the new head writer of NBC's Days of our Lives. We spent two fascinating hours at Art's Delicatessen in Studio City, Calif., where we dished the current state of Salem and how he'll fix it. It's a big job, but if anyone can do it, Sheffer - who scored four Emmys while penning As the World Turns - is the guy. During our chat, I found Sheffer to be candid, funny, down to earth and whipsmart. (I swear I'm not just saying that 'cause he promised he would order my new soap-opera book online - although a first-time author appreciates all the support he can get!) FYI, I got way too much great soap dish to blow it all in one blog posting. So I'll serve you my deli scoopage in delicious, digestible portions. Let's start with Sheffer's take on the DiMera clan, that dynasty of deviants who've been stirring up terror in Salem since the '80s. "When I first got this job," Sheffer says, "everybody told me, 'You need to bring back the DiMeras.' This is the perfect time for that. I want to reward longtime Days fans by tapping the show's history of romance and old-school villains." Need I say it? OK, I suppose I must... SPOILER ALERT! Will Stefano DiMera return to Salem?I outright told Sheffer that Days just shouldn't do any more DiMera stories sans Stefano DiMera, the cagey "Phoenix" himself. Daytime vet Joseph Mascolo recently left The Bold and the Beautiful and I've heard word he's returning to Days to reprise his signature Stefano role. True? "Our problem, at the moment," Sheffer says, "is I don't know if [Mascolo] is willing to come back for a short span. We have to think about what to do about that. The first thing we'll do is make sure there's another generation of the DiMera family on the canvas. We need to start passing down those attributes that have been so successful to the next generation. The [younger] generation on this show is sitting around doing nothing." Who is EJ Wells?British actor James Scott (ex-Ethan, All My Children) has charmed Days fans as Sami Brady's mysterious friend, EJ Wells. It will be revealed this fall that EJ is a member of the DiMera clan and he's also the Gloved One who's been skulking around Salem. "He's not going anywhere," Sheffer says. "To me, he is the next generation of the DiMera family. I think it will be a huge surprise as to who he is, how he's connected and what he's been doing. I won't tell you exactly who he is. Kudos to [former Days head writer] Jim Reilly for bringing on this character and for setting up what I think will be a great mystery. That's all his stuff, not mine. The way it's going to play out is mine." Wasn't Jan Spears supposed to be the Gloved One at one point? "Yeah, Jan Spears," Sheffer acknowledges. "One of the other versions of that story had Tek as the gloved hand. But there are only two people involved in that gloved hand business, EJ and Patrick. John and Bo will figure out their connection." EJ Wells is not Benjy!
I recently offered up a wacky theory that EJ is Elvis, the son of Stefano and Susan Banks. (Read that theory here.) Several TVGuide.com readers countered by speculating that EJ is Stefano's long-lost Native American son, Benjy Hawk. "You can say this," Sheffer winks. "Benjy is a DiMera and Benjy will be back. EJ Wells is not Benjy, though. We will see Benjy for the first time around the end of October. Benjy will be pivotal in what's happening in the months to come." EJ is Getting a Wicked New Lover!
As Days fans know, Kate Roberts used to be Stefano's mistress. Let's keep it in the family, shall we?
"Kate and EJ are gonna start f---ing," Sheffer teases. "EJ is everybody's type. And why wouldn't he want her? She's a sexy woman! This also gives Kate her chops back. No more Roman and Victor - none of that. When Lauren Koslow (Kate) walks into a room, she just bowls me over. She's sexy, she's a great actress and she will be very, very busy." community.tvguide.com/forum.jspa?forumID=700000047

I think Joe Mascola & James Scott will have some great scenes together. I wish they would keep JM on the show longer but I have no say in it
