No it's really not John. I get people like who they like but no, not every situation is a Sabine Singh thing. Why are people speaking for Stacy? Do any of us have any idea her feelings on this? I mean be outraged. They're both Kristen to me. It is what it is. It's a business.

Yeah, I'm not writing off Stacy as Kristen on the main show.

I'm not gonna do the 'poor Stacy' routine. LOL. It's a business. ED is a bigger name. Period. It is what it is. I'm sure she gets it. Not every situation is a Sabine Singh thing. People (mostly social media) need to calm down. If we can have two Abby's we can have two Kristen's. I'm good with either.

I don't mind Ainsworth but she seems to be why the character remains so limited and 'forgotten' at times. Kristina should be a bitch to be reckoned with. The mob princess version of Brook Lynn.

Yeah. I wasn't that into her as Kristina and the whole thing at the time, but looking back she was a good recast and I didn't appreciate the bitchy writing enough. Such a missed opportunity with this character. Yes they do.

Lindsey Morgan's Kristina I could buy in the mob world. Too bad Lexi Ainsworth is so limited because Kristina should be a far bigger and more important character than she currently is. What a waste.

Yeah. Sigh. As do I. I have some minor issues, and several characters could go tomorrow and I wouldn't blink an eye, but I'm liking what they're trying to do. I wish Frank would let them write. Meanwhile, Austin's interest in Leo was borderline creepy. Howarth is so lazy.

She's never bothered me. I definitely wouldn't go that far LOL but to each their own.

Exactly. They aren't even trying. He's just ... there.

I agree.

They probably get a 30-second one episode cameo

Said it all. I agree. I'd rather have Cady in the role but I'm not at all surprised Melissa is still hanging onto the role. It's going to be her call ultimately. I assume she tested the waters in this return.

FINALLY. I find it interesting he's back when Shaughnessy is coming onboard. I assume it's Holly related. Better be. That obvious punishment was ridiculous. Frank Valentini needs to hit the road.

I'd prefer him involved in this (but who knows?) and we actually get to see Robert Scorpio again soon. I guess Tristan is still being punished. How is Emma Samms doing?

I like Lucas Adams too. It's not his fault Tripp is raging bore. He didn't have to be Austin Jr.

Even if we're meh on the sets, it doesn't and shouldn't diminish the excitement over the spin-off. It's still GREAT news we got this. And thank you for clarifying on the sets Jason!

I mean, in reality, they'd all probably be hooking up with each other ... lol. You know Ron would love to have all four in bed together! (And yes, that's icky because Johnny and Allie are twins, but Ron will Ron)

Yep. And DAYS was starting to get that way under him too. Even though I liked his production values.

I know but still ...

I hate to see it too. She is beautiful and clearly had something done that wasn't great. I'm glad Jackie Zeman (who looks the best she has in *years*) and Leslie Charleson seem to have stopped. The JFP years did a number on them.

I forgot all about the lawsuit. Sony seems to have always been "the problem" (not that NBC hasn't interfered too) to me.

Yep. Those scenes randomly came up for me on YouTube and I watched. He died. But I guess it wouldn't matter. Do they know he already had a role? I mean, it doesn't really matter but still ...

I had long heard she was out so it's good to finally have confirmation. She grew on me in the role but I still miss Keegan. I'm OK with this exit for that reason but at the same time, it's pretty insulting to have Claire and Theo be nothing but props or plot devices to Ron's precious "Cin". Cin should be the ones exiting while Claire and Theo stay.

Yeah, that's my guess as well. "Nothing to see here" until someone high up gets involved, if they even do. So true. It's really depressing how far Y&R has fallen. It's become an empty shell. Doesn't help that Griffith lacks all substance and depth to any of his "stories" It's insane to see how well produced these shows once used to be. Literally primetime ready. Now? Yikes.
