Hey, I can’t get the perverse yet poetic justice of MR replaced with a WOC (when the other way around has been so commonplace), BC/GA would be awesome.

Amid the reflection on America’s racist history sparked by the police murders of black citizens, a few country music artists have been taking controversial Southern cultural references out of their names. Lady Antebellum became “Lady A” and now this:

I was also trying to think of frontburner Black villains on soaps who lasted more than a few months and didn’t merely exist just to make a white/Latino character look good before being disposed of (à la Taylor on AMC or Keri on OLTL). Would Liz on Passions and Virginia on SuBe count? (Edit: forgot Lexie’s turn to the dark side on DAYS.) It’s crazy that, in all their years on the show, neither Dru nor Olivia on Y&R ever really had a Sheila/Phyllis/Isabella-type character to go up against. (I know Dru tangled with Phyllis but that was long after Ms. Summers had become a heroine.) Carmen was the closest Dru ever had, and that character was not particularly well-crafted, to say the least.

Mo’Nique would be a fascinating addition. A total loose cannon.

Sending good thoughts to your family, @Soapsuds.

I can’t believe, all these years later, that name is still censored. The drama we used to have on these forums. 😂 Can we have some real fückery and just cast Florencia Lozano as Jennifer Horton? We already had KdP miscast as Kentucky Fried Eve, and you just know RC wants his Tea/Blair redux...

He’s absolutely stunningly gorgeous. Used to see him tanning with his bf on the Piers on the West Side back around when he was playing Cyrus.

Has Bravo ever sent a HW to a new city in the franchise? They’ve had guest appearances, I know. (Bethenny did BH to hang out with Kyle?) It’s interesting it hasn’t happened yet, or that they haven’t exploited the genuine friendships between women on different HW series with some kind of “all-stars“ limited series or something.

Soaps feel like a last bastion for conservatives in the culture wars, so I wonder how much impact these callouts will have.

Novak should muzzle his father.

I don’t think she’d fit in at all on NYC, even with Leah, but when you put it that way, I’d kind of like to see her humbled a bit mixing it up with Dorinda, Luann, et al, even if she’s one and done. One of the reasons I stopped watching OC is she kept getting away with murder season after season. The NYC ladies would see right through her, and that would be awesome. But keep her away from BH: they have enough sh!t stirrers.

Mishael Morgan co-produced this Juneteenth video of her and fellow soap actors like Bryton, Sean Dominic, Christel Khalil, Angell Conwell, Tamara Braun, and Ryan Carnes speaking the words of MLK.

Miss Jill Scott knows how to serve intensity. Powerful story.
