Ashley already has it...and being treated for it. She can come back over-the-top crazy and play Kristen on Y&R. Honestly, I wouldn't mind. It'd be something to watch.

Since DAYS has been on Peacock, I have only had the streaming service for a couple of months early this year. (I wanted a NFL game and knew Traitors2 was coming up. Cancelled after Traitors2). Even then, I never bothered to watch more than a couple of episodes here-and-there. Nothing made me want to watch. It wasn't DAYS to me anymore. With that said... I wish this change would shut down production for a few months to let the new writing team completely restructure the show. Take the time to really outline the next year, storyline project into the future, etc.. Do it right and not this fly by the pants whims that seem to have been done in recent years. Work BTS to see what actors, if any, would be wiling to come aboard again. The less time between "taking over" and the new vision the better. If I were still watching, I personally wouldn't care if characters (like the aforementioned Leo) disappeared and we were told about what happened to them offscreen. With a fresh patch of new characters appearing/old characters returning at once. Why waste the time transitioning? lol

I love Laura Leighton! My fave. I wish KA could have been on longer. She could have been interesting for Michael since he picked up a hooker (Megan) later on.

I'm personally not a fan of TSJ. Never liked him on OLTL, but I know he has fans. Such a waste of a character. The least they could have done was do the big "Who Killed Tucker" story that so many people would have gotten behind. Instead, Tucker will probably just slip out of town with his tail between his legs.

Josie Bissett also appeared as a very, bitter Jane.

They should have a teenager outside The Gates filming herself for Tik Tok. She tells her "followers" that her momma gave her up as a child to live with a poor family while her momma proceeded to live the high life. Given up because her father was the butler and her momma didn't want a scandal. Then she tells her "followers" the scandal is about to be broughten! lol You'll have the upper class family, the poor adoptive family, and the servants to give storyline to.

Harsh, but I have to say that Texas was very boring at times. I was only 7 when the show started. I remember being devastated when it was taken off the air though. I grew to love it. Brette, Rikki, Ruby, Mark were a great quad. The show definitely had some talent, just not the writing.

I could see CBS being the one to push Linda Gray out. Considering how prominent she was in the follow-up movies, as well as the reboot, she must have still enjoyed portraying the character. It's hard to say, though. Maybe she just wanted a break after a long-run.

Thank you for the pics and listing who they are. I saw the full group photo somewhere and I didn't know who half the people are. Most of that is from aging, as we all do, and not having seen these people for years.

Just finishing S9, the "dream season". I am curious if anyone knows when the producers/writers knew that Patrick Duffy would be back for S10. Was it a last minute addition for the finale? Did they know a few months before the season ended? Curious if his return impacted the last few episodes or if at the time of the writing they had fully intended to pick up where they were leaving off. I wonder what the writers thought if they were moving forward with their own vision and then told to scrap it all because Duffy was coming back. Sorry, I love backstage stuff. haha. I started watching Dallas as a teen when Duffy returned for S10. I just, for the first time, watched through from Episode One thru S9.

I've been trying to get back into GH because I enjoy a lot of the actors. The show needs to rein in the number of stories and characters in the mix. Make it a tighter show. There are many characters around that aren't essential to anything. Cody, Sasha, Drew, Michael, Willow, Marshall, Gregory, for examples. I would bring back Lulu for a Jason/Sam/Dante/Lulu mix and she could be support for Maxie.

I forget that all spoilers are basically in one thread now. Apologies. I was thinking that KA's return should have it's own thread. It's that important and a "hot topic". 😀

I honestly wasn't expecting you to change it. AW is my show. I've gotta stick up for it. 😀

I'm glad to see him. The headline should also mention his AW, GH roles.

It's funny how everyone has been in such an uproar to condemn DAYS for KA not being a part of the show without it airing yet, but now that it is confirmed she's appearing there isn't a peep. Busy eating crow?

The gorilla storyline would never have happened if it weren't for the cancellation. It was a lame way to do a "throw back" to the show's history on a short time frame. I still miss this show everyday. This was my show and I was devastated at its cancellation. Whenever I'm not feeling well or just feeling the blues, I often pull up clips/episodes on youtube and watch my friends. Yes, I know...that's kind of sad, but it makes me feel better. Cass. Felicia. Cecile. Vicky. Jake. Paulina. The Corys. Such a great ensemble of actors!

As far as people in their 60's living at MP, I would love to see Amanda end up owning the building again somehow. She could be the landlord again for a new generation of younger people. Maybe the son or daughter of other characters move in (how about Michael and Taylor's son so we can get some Taylor/Amanda scenes again). The "OGs" could pop in and out but not necessarily be the focus. Maybe Sydney could be suing Amanda for the building or something so that the two square off again. Sydney always trying to get on top and always failing. 😂

I almost peed myself last night (on my birthday no less) when I saw this last night. My fave show of all-time. I am here for anything that brings back my Sydney (deaths be damned) and Amanda. I have some hope that with Leighton and Zuniga as producers that this show would stay more true to the original. Unlike the CW reboot where the showrunners admitted that they never watched one episode of the original. This reboot would do well to completely ignore CW's. I wonder which original character will have died for the first episode. Didn't Thomas Calabro distance himself from all things Melrose after the reboot (understandably so)? If he won't be a part of it, maybe it's Michael's death at the beginning. I could see Josie Bissett and Lisa Rinna coming aboard for eps. Hopefully, Grant Show makes appearances. I do hope the show features some sons and daughters of the originals to help phase in a new generation. As much as I love the original cast, it won't pull in new viewers if it's just the older generation. GOD I wish Ella could show! I loved Katie Cassidy in the reboot. The best part.

Daniel Colson on OLTL turning out to be a killer because he wanted to hide the fact he was gay. I hated that Jenn Rappaport was killed.

Style wise, I hope this new show brings back longer scenes instead of these 10-15 second whiplash shifts between 20 characters a day. Longer scenes, if written well, can bring much more impact and help people to invest in what's going on. I also don't want to see the Peapack model of shooting since P&G is involved. I hope they don't have any ideas on using this to keep the budget "cheap". It'll look it.

Thank you!

Sorry if this has been brought up already. I'm watching from the beginning as I never started as a teenager until Bobby returned in the shower. At the beginning of S7 now and Barbara Bel Geddes hasn't been in the first several episodes. Was there a particular reason for this? She left for a season shortly after correct? Was she just trying to cut back on the number of episodes? watching from the beginning the most shocking thing for me to discover was that Christopher was Kristen's child. I never knew that!! I just always knew that he had been adopted.

You're right! Tony! (Nancy was clearly not a fave of mine. LOL!)

I loved that storyline because it added such mystery! I was 14 in '87 and couldn't wait to watch every day too. The fact that they purposely led the audience to believe the stalker was someone different at different time helped. Chris Chapin. Chad Rollo. I distinctly remember them making it look like Peter was the stalker then suddenly went a different direction. Poor Philece Sampler (whom I loved) got attacked how many times? I do wish though that they hadn't killed off Quinn. I felt it left a big hole after.

I thought Anna Stuart had said in interviews she had no intention of staying beyond her contract and then the cancellation came down so she stayed until the last day. I think she believed Donna no longer had any story of her own and was just on as Vicky's support system/talk to.
