Liberty City

This is BAD. Real BAD. Do people still think he's the one who is going to "safe" this soap? Because, he won't. He did not before and will not now.

Maura West earned her fourth Emmy Award today.

Cady McClain has always stated she's open to playing when they need her to. Daytime has not always been kind to McClain, either, but her experience at Days of Our Lives seems to be a positive one for her. And, she told TV Fanatic she did a lot of research when she first stepped into the role, so she took it seriously. And Melissa Reeves' arc around that time was filmed six-months prior to January 2022. But, at that point, McClain was already released from the role. I don't think Ken Corday thought McClain would be as well-received in the role as she was, and I know Ron Carlivati has continued to joke about "two Jennifers" and swapping out both McClain & Reeves, depending on availability. But Reeves seems content on remaining in Tennessee with her family at this point. Based on scenes I've watched on YouTube, I adore Valley's take on Jack, and would warmly welcome him back to the role! But, at this point, I don't think Carlivati has an investment in Jack & Jennifer, so I'm okay with Matthew Ashford & McClain popping in every now and again. Casting McClain as Jennifer missed the opportunity to return the role of Peter Blake. And, if Jason Brooks is unavailable, I've always suggested William deVry for a Peter recast!

I'd LOVE this, honestly! And I think Mark Valley would have wonderful chemistry with Cady McClain; if they didn't want him back as Jack, he could be a potential Mike Horton recast, too!

Rumour on the web is that, with COVID, Sony cut funding for the overnight set crews, so they put up a few permanent sets on both stages (Crimson Lights, Society as examples) and the writers are told they must write all scenes within those permanent sets, hence why we see a lot of the community lots.

RIP Richard Belzer!

Lloyd Bochner filmed and was even in promotional ad campaigns for the series' premiere. Peter Mark Richman was a decent replacement. Paul Burke was... a choice. Charles Bateman, to me, was an excellent C.C.! I would've been happy had he stayed, because he seemed to enjoy the role and reception seemed positive, too. It's because Burke, per Bateman thought the dialogue was stupid so he quit. It's clear Burke did not want to be there and it showed in his scenes. He didn't even seem interested in building a rapport with his co-stars.

Avery showed up to play that day.

Or simply "DiMera Enterprises," maybe?

Part of me wants to ditch the 900's and start over, too.

Yeah; you can tell, NBC was investing in this soap. Even in its final years, the remodeled Capwell set was still extravagant.

After today, I'm pretty sure she does have amnesia, and if not... then she acts it out real well. Yes, they do. They easily could use Terry more at the hospital, in place of Kelly Thiebaud.

Ouch. Same time slot Tamron's talk show airs here.

What about an Olivia Jerome recast?

As of 4pm ET, Buffy the Vampire Slayer will exit Hulu in 12 days. Spin-off series, Angel, will exit in 13 days.

Veronica Redd? YES!

It's awesome NBC did this; guess with Days of Our Lives not on the network it's allowed.

I believe she did, once??

I would not say that; the passing of the guard is moving to Drew Barrymore, Kelly Clarkson & Jennifer Hudson.

I liked Ryan with her, but we all know he wasn't sticking around once Idol returned. But they've all left. 🤣 Regis only stayed, because let's be real, he was Live.

I think it's hilarious they're still trying to make a co-host work with Kelly Ripa. Hilarious.

The only three photoshopped in were Lisa LoCicero, Kristina Wagner & John J. York. Unfortunately, I don't think Leslie Charleson is well enough to go to the set, because I am sure if she were available she would have been there.

Jane, I already uploaded it on the previous page....
