I am actually surprised they never gave J&M a retcon 1986 kid or a late in life kid like they gave Steve and Kayla

They got rid of Marlena’s late in life kid because it was Roman’s.

Rumor has it John Aniston will be filming Days scenes from his retirement home. I hope that’s true and I look forward to seeing how they do it. 

Since when has he been in a retirement home?

One relatively inconsequential one that nevertheless bothered me was smart, sophisticated socialite and career woman Gwen Parrish Frame returning to AW for a week as a homicidal country bumpkin. 

She basically made a cameo as Naomi Harper

PC really wasted Debbi Morgan.  She should have been a true lead character.

She should have just been Angela Baxter. 

Bill Hayes (Doug, Days)

Renee Jones (Nikki Wade; Lexie Carver, Days) two roles, one soap.

We should have had Mike instead of Daniel.

And instead of creating Daniel as Victor’s Godson, they could have brought back his actual Godson, Charlie Jannings.

(for example, Greg Vaughan, though he cited the writing, I also believe he doesn't want to travel from North Carolina).

He finished filming prior to the corona. 

What is Christian Maddox doing back?

I guess that explains why they SORASED Allie so much by saying she's already out of college.

Allie is around there age anyway giving she and Ciara are close in age.

It would have been more logical for her age to have the father turn out to be the long lost Pocket Johnson/Tyler Kiriakis since both were born the same year. 

Tyler Kiriakis is her Cousin...

So basically she is finish up her stint because she was still taping before production shutdown.

Dr. Neil Curtis, I've never read or heard much about what led to Stephanie Williams leaving the show.  At the time it was happening, I thought it was a pretty bad mistake to let her go.   My guess is that Bill Bell temporarily ran out of storyline ideas for her and released her from her contract.   She had a haphazard "going-away" storyline of some sort --- such as Amy's dad had a heart attack in San Diego (or something), and she had to go spend time with him.  (I'm a little bit vague on it at the moment.)  Then as someone said above, Amy began reappearing several months later in a recurring capacity (no contract).  Seems like Nathan Hastings found her working out in the gym and said, "Gosh, Amy, I didn't realize you were back in town," and she said, "Yes, I just got back", or something.   It seemed that Bell was about to start working Amy back into the storyline.  Then suddenly General Hospital gave Stephanie Williams a long-term contract to play the role of Simone Hardy, so any recurring work planned for her on Y&R quickly went out the window.  Soon after, Drucilla was introduced.  

Oh ok. I just always loved her as Amy and Simone Hardy. Never got into her Sheila Price character on OLTL.

I don't remember Amy Lewis ever being a "random teen girl".  Seems like Amy was always Traci's best friend from the time that Amy appeared, a dance and aerobics instructor (Stephanie was a dancer in real life), and the daughter of Commander Frank Lewis of the police force.   She was a contract character from the get-go.   Lauren didn't like Amy, because Amy knew Lauren was a heifer.  Later on, Amy went to work for Paul and Andy, but at first she was a college girl teaching aerobics and helping Traci deal with the snotty Lauren.      

I wonder why they never kept Amy around for a triangle with Olivia and Nathan or even Dru and Neil.

People speculated, especially with Sunset Beach there and JER recently leaving DAYS for his own projects. Fans definitely knew of the agenda to force out older actors - this was even given by Michael Malone as reason why they would not recast Iris. 

They were thinking of recasting Iris again?

Days - 

Kate Roberts (Deborah Adair) and Jack Deveraux (Matthew Ashford): those two had a chemistry and it seem they were heading there but stopped. 
 

Nicole & Roman: they flirted a bit and she apparently went to bed with him before leaving town a few years ago. 
 

Kayla & Stefan (Tyler Christopher) - just for the hell of it

Kayla & Marcus - they would have been much better than that Kayla/Shane story. 
 

Hope & Eric - it seem they were testing it during that Prison escape storyline. 
 

Abe & Maggie

Roman (Drake) & The original Lexie

That is correct. But since Drake has the on-screen history with Orpheus, and no one wants to see JoshTaylorasRoman, then it's just better this way.

I wouldn’t say it is better this way...

Correct me if I am wrong but isn’t Orpheus beef with Roman Brady, and not John?

AW- Robin Strasser’s run as Rachel, Jackee’s and Howard Rollins’ debuts. 

OLTL - Gillian Spencer’s run as Viki, Dixie Carter as Dorian

Days- Any of the 60s & 70s stuff, Catherine  Mary Stuart as Kayla and the first Brady/Horton pairing (Kayla/David), Neil & Maggie’s affair. 

Generations - The entire run. 

With Abe tied into this story, Dr. Raynor should have been Dr. Karen CARVER-Raynor.
