KMan101

For those curious ... episodes will start on Monday, April 2nd! The first episode will be Monday, June 28th, 1999 I'll try to do an episode daily (I write kind of far in advance when I really get going) but I can't promise it.

Some vague teasers for 1999 ... * Josie and Gary will struggle in their marriage * Joe and Paulina will eventually be driven apart * KC will fall for Chris as he and Toni plan their wedding * Carl experiences a medical setback that forces Rachel to call in an old friend! * Matt uses Anne to further his agenda with Cass and Lila but he finds out something that changes EVERYTHING! * Tito torments Nick and Remy as they too prepare to walk down the aisle ... * Alli develops a crush on Jake * Sean and Charlie could be paired together but they start off hating each other ... * Marley struggles with whether to remain in Bay City or move away with Tyrone * Cindy finds herself entangled in yet another caper that involves Grant but a surprising face from the past will involve HERSELF into their problems ... * Felicia begins to renovate TOPS and it appears as if Sergei is up to no good ... * Sharlene returns to Bay City and it's not long until John Hudson is a factor in her life again ...

I figure I might bring back Kelker-Kelly as Sam Fowler. Eventually. Not right away. I do mention Shane once in one of the episodes I've written, but that's about as far as I will go. And I might recast Tyrone but as of right now he'll just be written off, only because I know Henry Simmons would of left the Real AW to be on what was it, NYPD Blue or Law & Order? I'm trying to be as realistic as possible. I wouldn't mind having Tim Gibbs take over as Gary again (although if this were "Real Life" he would be over on OLTL as Kevin). I've also thought of bringing back Alexandra Wilson back as Josie. The FIRST Josie.

I fixed the list and added Mark Mortimer and Taylor Stanley.

* Anna Kathryn Holbrook returns as SHARLENE FRAME. Stay tuned for a first air date. Could David Forsyth be far behind? * RITA MADISON is being re-cast and an actress will be announced shortly * Henry Simmons is out as TYRONE MONTGOMERY and no last airdate has been established. * John Littlefield is out as GARY SINCLAIR and the role is being recast with an actor yet to be named. No last airdate is available right now. I will be taking suggestions for the roles of GARY and RITA, if interested in helping me cast them. I'm personally leaning towards Dan Gauthier as Gary, although I'm not sure how far I'll go with the Gary character. I do have a story planned but ...

AS OF JULY 1999, THE CURRENT CONTRACT CHARACTERS ARE: * Victoria Wyndham (Rachel Cory Hutchins) * Charles Keating (Carl Hutchins) * Linda Dano (Felicia Gallant) * Stephen Schnetzer (Cass Winthrop) * Tom Eplin (Jake McKinnon) * Jensen Buchanan (Vicky McKinnon) * Judi Evans Luciano (Paulina Cory Carlino) * Joseph Barbara (Joe Carlino) * Lisa Peluso (Lila Winthrop) * Sandra Ferguson (Amanda Cory) * Matthew Crane (Matt Cory) * Alice Barrett Mitchell (Anne O'Donnell) * Ellen Wheeler (Marley Hudson) * Anna Stuart (Donna Love) * Mark Pinter (Grant Harrison) * Kim Rhodes (Cindy Brooke) * Nadine Stenovitch (Josie Watts Sinclair) * John Littlefield (Gary Sinclair) * Eric Morgan Stuart (Chris Madison) * Rhonda Ross Kendrick (Toni Burrell) * Elain R.
