I was thinking FAbby may have been injured in the same accident as her parents and needed surgery? It's a weird story already. I am intrigued by it though.

You are correct. Wayne would bring a gravitas that Josh Taylor can't. It would be a smart move for the show but I don't have much hope it will happen.

Yup. And the thing is Mo openly admits he and Steve treated Tamara badly in his own book lol. No wonder she wanted to get far away from that pairing or work with someone else.

It was a really unhinged subset of Carson fans and from the No Ordinary Love board circa the early, early 2000's. I think they actually turned on Tamara before the whole thing was shut down.

I don't think it's a bad idea if the show got Wayne back. A Josh Taylor Roman pairing would be useless. Yes, it's been years, but circumstances change. I don't exactly mind the idea of Marlena being single for the rest of her time on the show, but it's also a bit ridiculous to put Julie, Maggie, and Marlena out to pasture to be single forever because their on screen partner passed away. Marlena is the only one of the 3 that has another true love still living so she would be the one I focused on. I highly doubt that Wayne would ever get re-hired so it's all moot. It just what I would do if I ran the show.

Yup. The only other fanbase war I saw that was more ugly were those NOLer Carly/Sonny fans from the early 2000's who actually wished harm to NLG, VM, and Ted King so Sonny/Carly could stay together lol, but it was a very small group of nuts. Liason/JaSam seem to have a larger, "intense" group of fans.

The Liason and JaSam fan wars were some of the ugliest fan based battles I have ever seen back in the day. It turned me off to both pairings and, honestly, neither pairing was bad. I don't actually think a Lucky/Liz/Jason triangle redux is a bad idea. It's certainly better than Anna/Jason, but I can't deal with the crazy lol.

Yeah, I have a really hard time believing all these Liz/Ric fans are just popping up now. I know this board isn't the barometer of the entire internet, but I remember saying I really liked early Liz/Ric and hardly anyone on here agreed lol. Liz/Ric doesn't have the long term, endgame potential that LL2 have, so I would suspect some Liason cross agenda. I think it's too soon for me to tell if I want Liz back with Lucky, but I certainly don't think Jason/Liz are ever getting back together lol.

Well that's unfortunate lol. At the time I am sure I did not find CR funny, but clips of her now give me more entertainment than MM ever did in all her years playing Belle. I definitely think it's fair to ask who made statements in a thread like this as there have been so many that it's hard to keep track. I just know it got pretty ugly on social media with people directly asking Deidre for a statement and wondering why it was taking her so long. Which is gross. It feels like some people (not on this board) are demanding statements from everyone that ever worked with Drake and it's no ones obligation to make a public statement.

Wayne's mostly been very gracious about speaking about the firing, but if you look up articles he totally was. JER's vision was John/Marlena and he actually got push back on that because they wanted Drake with someone younger. Roman seemed like such a critical character at the time he was fired, but it is what it is. I have no actual proof, but I always felt like they recast Roman with JT once Wayne was suddenly unavailable.

The GREATEST Belle. I actually think CR owns a successful yoga studio or something so she's doing well, but wisely decided to stop acting to protect all of us.😂

For some levity I kind of wish Charity Rahmer posted something. She used to act so weirdly flirty with her own father in her 3 week run or however long it was.

I actually don't think it's weird Kristen is on Marlena's radar constantly considering everything that has happened since 1995 lol. The show just doesn't hit the right beats with the rivalry. They were practically cordial a few years ago. I just don't think it's strange a woman that tried to kill her, kidnap her, steal her husband, manipulate her stepson, raped her son, and is now the mother of her granddaughter through trickery is on her mind. Days for some reason decides not to use that as motivation even though it would be super easy to do so.

Honestly, knowing ABC Daytime's creative decisions the Port Charles mob spinoff would still be airing and GH would have been canned instead.

I don't get how Sonny just being a straight up killer is better than Sonny being off his meds and having a semi-plausible excuse. But then again I haven't really understood Mo's decisions or motivation since like 1997 so there's that.

It is very strange the show didn't take the easy way out with Sonny being off his meds as the reason he killed Jagger. Maybe it's leading to something? Knowing GH though, probably not lol.

Kirsten has always spoken highly of Drake as far as I can tell and I would assume she's quite sad as well. She may be taking time to post or may just not be great with words in a situation like this. She also hasn't been on Days for years and years and probably isn't as close to the cast anymore. No harm in asking the question, but again, I don't think every person that has ever worked with Drake has to make a public statement for us to know that they will miss him.

I liked KL as Brady too. EM is fine as well. I think KL had more chemistry with Nadia and is more age appropriate, but EM is the better actor. I believe since Kyle's Brady got such awful writing in the beginning (the insane hatred for Marlena) that it taints people's view of his Brady. I never thought he was bad.

I LOVE the character of Kristen. I always have, but SH isn't really right for the role and it's especially apparent when they used to switch her out with ED at times. Kristen is ED's role and that's not going to change no matter what. I'd rather they bring back Peter with Brooks or a recast, but I guess with Stefan/EJ/Chad it's a little redundant to have another Dimera son. I'd probably cut Stefan to make room for Peter though.

That was all DZ. He's basically a chemistry magnet. He had chemistry with JMB and that didn't happen with any of her other million love interests.

It does feel like a missed oppurtunity, but at the end of the day I am not going to complain. I was thinking that too. It's nice to get a "name", but the most important thing is that the actress has chemistry with DZ. I am sure AH does, but they did hire Rylan and she had very little chem with him. Never change lol! Marci probably would have had fire chem with DZ though.

That seems most likely. I still think the show is missing some very interesting conflict with Lulu/Dante/Sam, which seems silly and very GH.

It should be a lead up into sweeps. It should be an event that rocks the entire canvas, but it might not be depending on how much FV dislikes KeMo/Sam.

Nope. Honestly Sonny should get an award if he's even partially responsible for He'll definitely get an air high five from me.

Overall, I don't even understand why Kristen is on the show. She doesn't need to be at all. I am sure SH is a lovely woman, but Kristen seems to get interjected into plots she doesn't belong in and doesn't bring much to the table character wise. Her and Brady are beyond tired at this point and if Kristen disappeared for months or years I wouldn't even notice.
