Feeling blue since the plug was pulled on "Passions"? Well, we have news that just might put a smile on your face. No, the supernatural soap's not coming back ... but this is almost as good: Two of Harmony's hottest leading men have been cast on "Days of our Lives." It's true! Eric Martsolf (Ethan) and Galen Gering (Luis) are coming to Salem.

Eric will be taking over the role of Brady Black, last played by "The Bold and the Beautiful" star Kyle Lowder (Rick Forrester). Rumors of the popular character's return have been floating around ever since Nadia Bjorlin made her comeback as Brady's sexy singer wife, Chloe, last year. And now that Chloe's taken up with Lucas -- the timing seems perfect for Brady to step in and shake things up.

Galen will be taking on a brand new role as an FBI agent. We don't know too much more about his character at this point, but we DO know he'll be making his debut sometime in October. So you can pretty much count on us being glued to the screen every second between now and then ...

We think "Days" made an incredible choice casting BOTH of these actors -- and can't wait to see them steam up the streets of Salem!

What other "Passions" stars would you like to see on "Days of our Lives"?
