How did Drew exit the show? Tammy Blanchard was excellent in her Emmy-winning role of the younger version of Judy Garland in that miniseries from a few years back (as was Judy Davis, who also won an Emmy for playing the adult Judy Garland). Was TB the only actress to play Drew, or did GL recast after she left?

Danny and Jesse were on the show together for about a year or two. There was a lot of material about how Michelle was falling in love with bad boy Danny even as she knew she was supposed to still love Jesse, who was a good guy. Meanwhile, Jesse was slowly falling in love with Drew, even though she was bad or semi-bad.

They eventually all became friends, other than the strain when Michelle went on trial for Ben Warren's murder (Ben was Drew's father).

In 2000 GL fired Patti as Selena. New HW, Claire Labine wanted the character to stay but wanted to recast Selena with Ilene Kristen. However Rauch & P&G wanted Seleba role done and over

I just came across the Quint and Nola Homepage. Does anyone know who played Professor Thompson[ pictured in the site]' Quint's friend, Davie Lance [pictured in the site], and Henrietta Morrison[not pictured]? Could Henrietta Morrison[an older lover from Quint's past] could be the character Henrietta Muir credited to Gloria Hoye[veteran of many soaps]?

One of the soap mags printed a blind item that an actress was fired for weight gain.

Patti had out on quite a bit of weight since starting as Selena and was heavily costumed to cover it up.

Patti was then fired.

How Kim Zimmer kept her job was a miracle after this.

Selena's character was ruined anyway. She spent years searching for Drew, her long-lost daughter, and never mentioned her OTHER abandoned child, Miguel Santos, Jr., AKA Gus Aitoro, before GL rewrote that into a heap'o'mess. Alan Spaulding and Sister Lucia/Regina whatever, my ass.
