BIG CAST CHANGES!

- This Just In! Charles Shaughnessy is joining the long list of familiar faces of the 80's to return. The blog has now dislosed that Charles is set to return to the very popular role of Shane Donovan for an action-packed November Sweeps! Unfortunately, he will only be reprising the role for five to ten episodes, but the blog is very happy to have him. "He is going to have a huge impact on one of the show's main stories. One of the show's biggest supercouples will not be the same after his visit."

- In other news, readers may not have noticed, but the blog has done a major re-write! "We promised a big murder mystery kick-off at the end of August. I was all ready to kill off this one character. It was set to be a big murder mystery, but the character and the story have caught on like wild fire. As a result, I re-evaluated the story and found a way to keep the character on. A contract might even be headed the person's way!"

- Expect a few players to be gone during November Sweeps. "Contracts are up. The time has come. Some characters have run their course. Sometimes, the bad guys have to pay!"

- Michael Sabatino will be leaving during November Sweeps, as well.

- Expect a young starlet to bite the dust next Friday during episode #200. "The poor character won't know what the hell hit her!" Ashley Benson (Abby), Martha Madison (Belle), Heather Lindell (Jan), and the recurring Lauren Ambrose (Stephanie) are all rumored to be the one to go. There's only one way to find out for sure.
