Members JONNYSBRO Posted September 24, 2016 Members Share Posted September 24, 2016 It had to be Mal Young who fought for them to return. Maybe the Bell family got in his ear they literslly were locked out of YR during JFP reign. Jills reign actually they were not involved at all with YR. Maria screwed it for them she kept badmouthing Steve and Angelica in the press. It was like she was a whining child after she got fired. I did hear JFP was shocked about her firing from YR. Her ratings were very good and she won back to back emmys best show. Anyone hear any backstage gossip on why she was dismissed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BetterForgotten Posted September 24, 2016 Members Share Posted September 24, 2016 What's hilarious is the JFP and everyone else has used Lauralee Bell much more than Maria ever did. Lauralee didn't even seem to care when she was asked about her sister-in-law being fired a few years back in favour of JFP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted September 25, 2016 Members Share Posted September 25, 2016 I would love for Meg return as either a writer or Julia Newman or both. Julia is a character from the past that Y&R has swept under the rug that could have storyline potential. Jaime Lyn Bauer as Lorie and Marla Adams as Dina would also be a great characters to return.

Members Soapsuds Posted September 25, 2016 Members Share Posted September 25, 2016 I am hoping Y&R can get her away from Days...LOL and would love to see Susan Seaforth Hayes back too as Lauren's mother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted September 25, 2016 Members Share Posted September 25, 2016 I would love to see Susan return as Joanna. I wish William Gray Espy could be convinced to return as the original Snapper. He can be used to introduce Jennifer Elizabeth Foster to the canvas. Maybe Jennifer would be a vixen like Raven was on Edge Of Night. Eileen Davidson said she loved working with Rod Arrants who played her first husband Dr. Steven Lassiter. Maybe Rod could come back as Steve's twin. The twin could be interesting and mysterious like Rod's character of Travis on Search For Tomorrow. They could go off on adventures together and give Eileen some meaty material to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BetterForgotten Posted September 25, 2016 Members Share Posted September 25, 2016 Eileen and Sally are close friends in real life, and Sally's always mentioned that she enjoyed writing for Ashley. It will be interesting to see if Ashley finally gets a story with any substance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted September 25, 2016 Members Share Posted September 25, 2016 Its all just wait and see. I'm not expecting an influx of past characters.Some viable new characters are just as important. As boring as I found him,I could see a Cole Howard return as having some impact for Ashley and Victoria.Also JT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RavenWhitney Posted September 25, 2016 Members Share Posted September 25, 2016 Thomson will go or be demoted to scripts or breakdowns. I could see Meg Bennett possibly coming back to write breakdowns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted September 25, 2016 Members Share Posted September 25, 2016 I want to see all the writers fired with the exception of Janice Ferri Esser and Natalie Minardi Slater, who are both Bell era survivors (it still boggles my mind how they were able to survive every subsequent regime change). SSM and KA need to start fresh with a team who will execute their vision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted September 25, 2016 Members Share Posted September 25, 2016 Weren't there rumors at one point that LLB was involved in pushing her out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted September 25, 2016 Members Share Posted September 25, 2016 They actually almost didn't. Esser was fired Latham but rehired by MAB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Manny Posted September 25, 2016 Members Share Posted September 25, 2016 Thanks! Good to be back! I am thinking of watching last week's of Y&R today and see how I feel about it.. I have been reading through this thread and it's interesting to see everything that I missed during the years.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted September 25, 2016 Members Share Posted September 25, 2016 To be fair, the plan was to hire them prior to Pratt joining, but JFP pulled strings and went above Angelica's head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted September 25, 2016 Members Share Posted September 25, 2016 I could handle return of one legacy character - Dina makes most sense - but, as I mentioned on Y&R thread, the show desperately needs male characters under 40. There plenty of male children in existing families who could fit that bill. We really don't need more older divas: both MTS & JW should get as much screentime as possible.
