Members DRW50 Posted November 17, 2015 Members Share Posted November 17, 2015 I mostly remember her because when she was on Y&R soap magazines kept having photos of her at public events showing off her abs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted November 17, 2015 Members Share Posted November 17, 2015 She's just supposed to cross paths w/Ben according to several sites. In and out in a day or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soapfan770 Posted November 17, 2015 Members Share Posted November 17, 2015 The Mac origins story with Amanda and Ralph had tons of potential but quickly floundered and I think Trent Jones took the blame for that one. Unfortunately the Smith regime didn't learn the mistake when it came to repeating the story with Gloria and Tom... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeeeDee Posted November 17, 2015 Members Share Posted November 17, 2015 The writing wasn't the problem. It was the casting that caused the story to tank. Kelly Kruger, Daniel Quinn & Denice Duff were terrible casting choices for Mackenzie, Ralph & Amanda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted November 17, 2015 Members Share Posted November 17, 2015 Not to mention that it was such a disappointment to never see Bashioum complete that whole arc and confront all the issues that brought Mac on the show to begin with. It felt like it was a cheat and left unresolved, although, of course, it wasn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted November 17, 2015 Members Share Posted November 17, 2015 I wonder who would have been capable actors in that story besides Bashioum?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeeeDee Posted November 17, 2015 Members Share Posted November 17, 2015 +1 Billy & Mackenzie's entire arc was ruined once AshBash & David Tom left but Y&R insisted on finishing their initial story. The ONLY classic moment that came from the entire rushed debacle was Jess Walton sprinting barefoot through the Chancellor grounds to stop Faux Billy & Mac's wedding, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JAS0N47 Posted November 18, 2015 Members Share Posted November 18, 2015 Yes, she's the midwife that Ben finds to help deliver Abigail's baby. Just a quick guest role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted November 18, 2015 Members Share Posted November 18, 2015 It was typical of Y&R to want to finish/complete what they started but since those two were gone, they should have put the last part of it on hold until either really great recasts came along or Bashioum returned (which she did, which makes it all the more sadder that we never saw it with her). Jill doing that was beyond hilarious. It makes me hope that, were Tom and Bashioum still on, the show would have never destroyed them for the Jill/Kay story although by that point, who knows.

Members Gray Bunny Posted November 19, 2015 Members Share Posted November 19, 2015 She looks like a cross between Kim Rhodes (ex-Cindy, AW) and Nancy Sloane (ex-Katie, B&B). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
