Alan wasn't there for the pam long nor Nancy Curlee years so naturally he doesn't know where to reach them..so he ends up with this bunch from the declining years of the show
Nancy Curlee is on Facebook and I'm sure Alan knows someone who knows someone who can put him in touch with Pam Long. But I'm not surprised by the selection. And at least it seems the majority want to see Courtney Simon and Millee Taggert.

Kevin & Chloe Y&R
I didn't mind when they were off the canvas for that year or so when they were gone. They bring nothing to the show and that is sad since Chloe is Esther's daughter and Katherine' Chancellor's goddaughter. Elizabeth and Greg our good actors but the characters and the damage they have suffered over the years make me care about them anymore.
Olivia - GH
At a time she had a purpose as Dante's mother and a character, but I was hoping during Ryan's Murders 2.0 she was going to be a casualty. It just seems like she is now only there to fuss at Lulu for moving on without Dante and being the new modern matriarch of the Q's and remind us she and Ned our married.

Don't waste your time on PP. As for The Good Fight, how's AM's airtime?
Also, you guys know she's a very successful opera singer, right?
Oops, sorry to spoil you but in many ways, I did you a huge favor.
No I knew about the spoiler. Audra is a successful BROADWAY star who has won several Tony's in her career.

Is Private Practice worth watching? Now I'm intrigued!
BTW Audra MacDonald, who according to Wikipedia played Naomi in Private Practice, is also in an absolutely great show I am binge-watching at the moment -- The Good Fight.
Well if you're interested sample a few episodes of the first season to see if you like it or not. It's a partial rewatch/new binge for me since I didn't watch too much of the last three seasons. It's on the IMDb TV section of their site.

That makes more sense.
But then .... what about this....
Transcript for
Mon Oct 16, 2006 US, or Friday Oct 13, 2006 Canadian.Devon to Carmen Mesta:
This is about Drucilla. I'm sure you know that. Am I-- I'm sorry. I, uh, I talk too loud sometimes. I'm still getting used to this. All right, um... Carmen, the thing is... Drucilla can be pretty intense. And sometimes it's a good thing, sometimes it's not so good. Um, she just feels really strongly about certain things. And that's part of what makes her such a great parent. Now I don't know if you knew this about me, but a few years back I was in a group home, all right? I had no one. And at that time, I was, you know, mad at the world and everybody in it. But when Mr. and Mrs. Winters took me in as their foster son, they saved me. They gave me a future. And for the first time in my entire life, I knew what it meant to be a part of a real family. Now... bottom line? I don't wanna see Dru lose all the things that she's worked so hard to give me. And if she loses her job, you know, goes to jail, loses her freedom and gets ripped away from her family---- if this is the right episode, then maybe the week's theme is about parents and children, who have had a difficult time?
Theory #75845623 about the weekly theme....
(I really don't know, I just keep guessing!)
Monday
Victor was left in an orphanage, now reconciles with his birth mother.
Tuesday
Grace and Tony see Cassie walking into Millie's.(Cassie was adopted by Alice who abandoned her -- and Millie tried to care for her.)
Wednesday
Devon talks about how there was nobody to care for him, and he was in a group home, and had nobody until Dru and Neil took him in.
Thursday
Jill wants to find out if Dina was really sick for two years in a sanitarium, or if Dina is lying and had simply ignored the family for two years.
[But this doesn't really fit, because Jack, Ashley, and Traci were already adults the last time Dina disappeared. I don't know]
Friday
The judge rules Nick and Sharon have custody of Cassie.Parent and Child reunion?

Haha I wasn’t sure how to take that. If it’s a BLM issue I so could the character being some random cousin of Carter or haul in another distant Avant or distant Barber relative.
The other way I took it was Steffy gets COVID, has some PSA story like when Taylor had TB and falls in love with her doctor who treats her much to Liam’s dismay or something.
I wouldn't hate the Steffy COVID story you suggested. But we know the doctor love interest would be gone within six months so she can fight for Liam's dong again.

An interracial relationship?
He already did that with Steffy and Marcus over ten years ago.
Illegal Immigrant?
Is Steffy going to hook up with someone from over the border?
Transgender?
We know that's not going to happen again

@soapfan770 Are you thinking of Carrie Genzel? She was rumored to be a Victoria recast in 1999 in case contract negotiations with Heather Tom fell through.
Wasn't she a rumored recast as Victoria in 2005?

There does need to be a time jump because no one wants to see them still mention it's March but they're six feet apart.

@DramatistDreamer suggested there should be some troubles with business due to COVID on The Young and The Restless. And I think we should be seeing some trouble affecting Forrester Creations due to COVID as well. However, I doubt business will be any focus because we got to make sure Brooke & Bill sleep together for the hundredth time or have Hope and Steffy fight over blow up doll version of Liam instead.
I hope they do a time jump and not go back to Sally Jr. and Dr. Peloton at the beach house after nearly four months later.

She appears to be happily married with a sculptor daughter in Arizona. I'd kill to have seen Lorraine again on AMC 2.0, preferably reunited with Charles. (side note: Do not ask me about the teen scene Halloween trip to the ghost town of Corinth I'd write if I had an ABC soap revival to myself.)
Rush also apparently had a recurring role as a doctor on PC in '98 - I do not remember that at all and would love to see it.
Thanks!!! She is also married to soap writer Royal Miller too.

Geoffrey Ewing is absolutely wonderful in the later episodes of the Loving Murders playlist with Maggie Rush as Lorraine. (I Googled her BTW, she's still beautiful) I know they brought Lorraine onto The City and gave her a cool pairing with Roscoe Born and said she and Charles broke up bc he was on the rebound, but I like to think they're back together.
I wonder what is Maggie up to now?

NYPD Blue
It's so many I had to copy and paste them.
The show had some infamous departures, including David Caruso, who reportedly left due to pay disputes and because he wanted to make movies. Jimmy Smits, whose Bobby Simone came in as a replacement for Caruso’s John Kelly, left because of the on-set antics of writer/co-creator David Milch (more on that below). Andrea Thompson also left because of Milch. Sharon Lawrence left more than once because she wasn’t satisfied with her character’s development/screen time. Amy Brenneman says she was fired. Kim Delaney left to star in a new show. Charlotte Ross left because she had a baby. Dennis Franz as Sipowicz was the only cast member to appear in every episode.
DAVID MILCH HAD SOMETHING IN COMMON WITH SIPOWICZ.
Milch was considered a genius by his fellow co-creator Steven Bochco, but he had his demons. His procrastination and last-minute, on-set script and direction changes left many cast members frustrated. He revealed later that he was struggling with alcoholism and drug addiction during the production. Milch eventually cleaned up his act and went on to create the critically acclaimed HBO series Deadwood.
The series included more nudity and raw language than was common on broadcast television, which resulted in at least 30 of the network's affiliates—mostly in smaller markets—to not run the series when it debuted.[8]
In 2005, L. Brent Bozell III told TIME that the nudity on the series influenced him to establish the Parents Television Council, for which he served as president from 1995 to 2006.[9] The PTC has directly criticized several episodes of the show for perceived vulgarity[10][11][12] and filed complaint with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) over the use of obscene language in several episodes aired in early 2003, at the last half of the 10th season of the show,[13] associating the series with a perceived increase in profanity[14] and violence[15] on prime-time television from the late 1990s to early 2000s. The FCC ruled that the language in the episodes was indecent but decided not to fine ABC, because the episodes aired before a 2004 ruling that obscenities would lead to an automatic fine.[16] However, on January 25, 2008, the FCC fined ABC $1.4 million for the episode "Nude Awakening" (airdate February 25, 2003), due to scenes of "adult sexual nudity".[17] The fine was ultimately rejected by the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit on January 6, 2011.[18]
According to NYPD Blue: A Final Tribute, a retrospective broadcast aired the same night as the last episode, the controversy was not limited to what was on the screen.[19] David Milch, the show's co-creator and head writer, was a controversial figure on the set during the seven years he was with the show.[20] His working style and tendency to procrastinate or make last-minute, on-set changes contributed to a frustrating working environment for some of the cast and crew.[20] Smits left the show when his contract ended because of it,[20] as did Andrea Thompson.[21] Milch cites his own alcoholism and other addictions as factors contributing to the difficult environment.[22][23] In spite of the controversy, Milch is usually credited as a major creative force during the years he worked on the show;[20] he won two Emmy Awards for his writing,[24] shared another as executive producer, and shared in a further 10 nominations for his writing and production.[25]
