    I always thought they should have paired Traci's daughter Colleen with Lauren's son Scotty for a future Traci/Lauren feud. Another idea would have had Lauren go after Steve at some point.

     

     

    I would've loved it if Colleen and Scotty became a couple too, with Lauren and Traci going back and forth. Not to mention, Lauren formed a close bond with Colleen when Traci wasn't around either.

    There were some scenes in early 1993 where Traci was uncharacteristically extremely NASTY to Lauren even making a mockery of Lauren’s situation with her son Scott to the point that Lauren and Brad briefly suspected Traci of being the one who was behind the puzzle blackmail lol. Traci just seemed out of character 1991-1996, and tbh Steve was a dolt, especially after Traci revealed she was divorcing him because he was lost in the head or something?

    Although I am surprised Steve and Traci never had kids themselves, they should’ve had at least two and had teen Colleen being jealous or something. But for whatever reason that just wasn’t the case. 

    As for Ashley it was clear I think Bell loved the character that he kept on writing for her; but I think bad castings really hampered the storylines. Blade/Rick should have been played by a sexier and more dynamic actor. As for recasting Ashley a third time, nepotism should not have directed the casting. The castings for Adam Hunter and Kurt Costner were questionable too. As was casting Keith Dennison for Jill. I don’t know who Y&R’s casting director was at the time but a lot of the casting choices between 1994-98 were atrocious with a few exceptions like Shemar Moore, Sharon Case, Stafford, and Sandra Nelson etc. 

    Steve and Traci should've had a kid together. It would've given the Abbott's another family member. Perhaps Steve didn't want Colleen around his and Traci's kid because he began to see her as a bad influence on Johnny or Samantha. (making up names) 

  2. Wasn't Liz Keifer pregnant IRL when Blake was pregnant with the twins and Clarissa on Guiding Light?

    On Loving when Amelia Heinle was pregnant, they wrote in that Steffi was pregnant by Cooper aka Michael Weatherly her real-life husband at the time. 

    When Mishael Morgan was pregnant the first time on Y&R. They tried to cover her midsection but it did it in a way that someone with impaired vision could see she was with child. And when she was pregnant again, they wrote in Hilary being pregnant. Though we all know what happened there. 

     

     

     

     

  3. Lindsay Hartley's pregnancy was written in on Passions when Theresa was doing the whole surrogacy storyline with Ethan/Gwen. 

    Rebecca Herbst last two pregnancies were written on GH when Liz was having Cameron and Aidan. 

    I believe Heather Tom was pregnant when Katie was too on Bold and Beautiful. I remember when Katie had post-partum depression, she was on maternity leave.

    The story involving Amanda's family has been an afterthought. The trial excerpts were beyond awful. Amanda and Michael in a panelled corner. C'mon. This is THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS, not local city hall coverage. Josh Griffith has done poorly by Amanda and her offscreen family. At least GENERAL HOSPITAL has a courtroom set, a judge, a prosecutor and a bailiff. Shame on CBS and Y&R.

     

    The momentum for good story was there, but the writers dropped the ball. Imani could be a great addition. Naya could be working with Nikki on charity functions. The never cast husband (Paging Rif Hutton <cough>) should be on, resenting Amanda. It doesn't take a genius to make this story work, just some interest.

    All Of This!!! 

  5. Wasn't Marcy Walker pregnant IRL when Eden was pregnant on Santa Barbara? 

    I remember Jennifer Gareis was pregnant, I think for the first time. They had Pam make some type of joke insisting she's been eating something because she is "porking up" there on Bold and Beautiful. 

    Katey Sagal's first pregnancy was written in "Married with Children," also having Peggy pregnant. Though sadly, in real life, it ended in stillbirth, making the previous season "a dream season." out of respect. I was reminded of this while watching her in an old TV movie this morning with Charlotte Ross in which her character was pregnant too. 

     

     

  6. I believe Melissa Reeves's first pregnancy was written for Abby on DAYS in 1992. 

    Julia Barr's pregnancy was written in when Brooke had Laura on All My Children. I believe they were initially going to have Tom and Brooke struggle with infertility. 

    Charlotte Ross' pregnancy was written in on NYPD Blue despite her character, Connie, being told she couldn't have anymore children because of a complication she had with her character's first pregnancy when she was a teen. 

    When Kassie DePaiva was pregnant with her son on One Life To Live, Blair was pregnant with Brendan. I remember reading/hearing that it wasn't an easy pregnancy.

     

     

  7. Kevin Fisher - The Young and The Restless 

    I like Greg Rikkart, but the character should've stayed gone when Mal got rid of him to go to Portland with Chloe and Bella. Maybe he visits here and there, but the character isn't needed anymore and is currently in a supportive role along with Chloe. I'm like, can Kevin start a start-up that takes off that leads to Kevin, Chloe and her children relocate to Silicon Valley, California?

     

  8. Wasn't Kristina Wagner both pregnancies written for Felicia as well on GH

    I believe when Lynn Herring's was pregnant with her youngest son in 93. I believe they wrote it in for the surrogacy storyline with Scott/Dominique. Too bad GH refuses to bring back Serena for some reason I don't know. 

    I do know for sure that Kirsten Storms went on maternity leave when she was pregnant. Maxie went on some retreat where she met Peter Harrell's son. 

    Mary Beth Evans pregnancy was written in I believe when Kayla was pregnant with Stephanie on DAYS

    I'm not sure about Victoria Rowell when she was pregnant with her son by Wynton Marsalis on YR.
