You know, I vaguely remember that thread? Your idea, in particular, was very David Lynch-esque. Yep, it's been that long, lol. I think a lot of us were tossing out all kinds of ideas for how we'd each wrap up the network run. It'd be fun to dig that up and see if we still like any of those ideas, lol.

Yep! And Rachel Ward and Hart Bochner portrayed the two who, IIRC, murdered him and Hall (after they "rescued" them out in the ocean) and took their boat for the money...or something like that, lol. In a way, I feel like I've seen her more AWAY from DAYS than I have ON DAYS, lol.

Ah, yes, "And the Sea Will Tell," the infamous true-crime miniseries that gave us, among other horrors, a shot of Deidre Hall's severed head.

Who would we cast for THAT role, though? I, myself, am missing a lot of shows I grew up with in the '80's and early '90's, so I wouldn't mind someone like Mel Harris ("thirtysomething"), Patricia Kalember "("thirtysomething" and "Sisters"), or Ellen Bry or Cynthia Sikes (both from "St. Elsewhere").

Even "Jaws 3-D," lol?

Neither. I'm reversing my original opinion and holding out for a lesbian relationship.

Thank you for the clarification, @soapfan770 . It seemed odd to me that only part 1 was in the Top 15, but I didn't know it continued into the following week.

I'm actually surprised he HASN'T had her on GH. Maybe he could get some of her old "Miami Vice" co-stars to join her? It'd be a treat to see Edward James Olmos, John Diehl or Olivia Brown again, lol.

Exactly, lol! I realize bringing back Bobby/Rob after all those years without so much as a mention would've been a tough hurdle to clear, but I think I would've explained it all by saying Joe sent him to live with his late wife, Helen's, relatives in California when life in Pine Valley without his mom became too hard for him. However, Rob had trouble adjusting there, too. Eventually, he dropped out of school and cut off all contact with his loved ones as he criss-crossed the country, working a bunch of menial jobs until he landed in CO, which is where La Kane would've run into him while attending a Sundance-esque film festival.

Apparently, people watched part 1 of "Sidney Sheldon's Master of the Game" and said, "Hell nah," lol.

I don't care what the story is, so long as it involves a bath and a shave.

I won't stone you, @Vee , but I'm still holding onto my idea of Bess Armstrong (aka "Patty Chase"/the First Mrs. Sheffield) as nuCarolyn.

NGL, whenever I see the name "Justine," I think first of Theo Huxtable's ex-girlfriend. And IA: I wouldn't waste FL on that character, or vice-versa. You could introduce her (Tea?) as someone Justine attended law school with, but to cast her AS nuJustine? Sorry, @Rocket Man , but that's one more fuse you'll have to burn out there alone.

Honestly, aside from an inevitable reunion with Brenda, I think Sonny (and MB) has transitioned into what I'd call the curmudgeonly phase of his life. Just pair him with an orphan named Punky and call it a day.

Ah, jeez, lol. (I mean, she IS terrible, but....)

At this point, I'll just assume Rolf has resurrected everyone who has ever lived in Salem and is now (presumed) dead. Yes, Dickie Martin, your time has finally come!

Please say it doesn't involve revealing she's really a robot.

With our luck, though, if they were to bring back Greg Foster, we'd get someone like Barry Bostwick or Perry King, lol.

Not for much longer, I'm afraid, lol! The effect HBO had on my early years - when I grew up with my older brother in an apartment complex that offered the channel for free to all residents - is immeasurable. So, to see where it is now, potentially in the hands of people who wouldn't have DARED airing most of the shows and movies that defined the network in the '80's and '90's and helped to put it on the proverbial map, is both shocking and sad.

When I heard that James Talarico had won the primary, I was disappointed, but not surprised. Even if we manage to rid ourselves of the current administration and get out from under the GOP's death grip, we're too shell-shocked, for lack of a better word, to keep moving toward a government that reflects our country's unique ethnic and racial makeup. For the next generation or more, it's gonna be back to pitting nondescript white male vs. nondescript white male in most elections; and those of us who wanted real change will just have to hold our noses and vote. IOW, Talarico's victory is just a sign of things to come - for the left AND for the right.

It WAS an awful story - and from what I understand, too, it didn't play at all like it was intended. Meanwhile, I stand by my old AMC fanfic idea of bringing in Philip Brown as the "legendary" Bobby (now Rob) Martin, now a ski instructor from Colorado.

IA. As we all know, you don't go into the entertainment industry for the money OR for the job security; and as much as we begrudge many film and (primetime) TV actors for making millions per picture or per episode/season, the truth is, it's really a form of financial security in an extremely volatile profession. (Besides, by the time those same actors give their agents, managers, lawyers, etc., their cuts, they're lucky to walk away with a fraction of that big payday).

Yes. However, Philip Brown reportedly had some sort of breakdown BTS (over having too many lines to memorize in too short a time frame?), so TPTB were forced to recast at the last minute with Hunt Block.

NGL, the first time I heard the name "Sidwell," I thought of frozen vegetables.

"Gregory Harrison, come on down," lol! (But seriously, I'd love to see some Brookses and Fosters resurface on Y&R.)
