So the show can bring back Kate Mansi? 🙃

I assume fake out, just like something like Ciara's death or Abby's last death lol.

The chatter on the street is Abby on Days indeed appears to die right before the Olympic cliffhanger.

Noah being hung up on Tessa 4-5 years later is utterly ridiculous. He should be hooking up with Fen instead.

If there’s something I’ve learned from B&B’s “a character dies!” spoilers that the term legacy heroine dies could literally mean anyone (hello Emma!) and with the dying part it could mean a temporary presumed death (Thomas in the vat of acid) or are pretending to die (Sally). Definitely can rule out B&B and Days for that matter lol.

And the woman in the green dress who works at Grand Phoenix turns out to be behind it all! 🤣🤣🤣

February sleeps for sure lol. A few months ago there was a pretty tawdry and racy spoiler “Phyllis opens her legs up to Jack!” to make they show sound sexy/exciting but I see they’ve given up on that. LMAO. Offscreen on the back burner except for Winters Wednesday when they pop up for a cameo to tell Devon how successful things are going.

AW: Mac, Rachel, Felicia, Cass ATWT: Bob, Lisa, Lily, Carly B&B: Stephanie, Brooke, Taylor, Sally #1 Days: Tom, Alice, John & Marlena, Sami, Bo & Hope GL: Josh and Reva, Roger Sunset Beach: Annie Y&R: Victor & Nikki, Jill & Katherine, Dru, Malcolm(as @Khan said not sandwich making Eddie Winslow!)

Agreed but the whole kiss thing is something Thudley likes to use to destroy entire relationships. See Ridge’s single kiss to Quinn.

LMAO!!!!!! I’m dead. 🤣🤣🤣 Yeah I don’t see anyone too pleased with Y&R at the moment. There is no story.

Lol that’s a good question, I was just repeating from the general consensus I have read through the rec.arts.tv.soaps Google archive from late 1992. Those finicky folks also really hated Victor at the time. It would also not surprise me if one those online pioneer posters in the Prodigy was also the one who submitted the nasty letter to SOD about how Jill grabbing a paralyzed David’s private parts in an attempt to prove he was faking was very very obscene and ruined their lunchtime appetite.

Sorry I didn’t see this but the main thing about Phyllis during that time period was not only her paranoia and also spinning her great web of lies and deception as foundation. Phyllis pulled her own intriguing supporting cast with her lover Peter Garrett to make Danny jealous while Dr. Tim Reid and Sasha participated in her nefarious schemes to make everything look good. There came a point where Phyllis realized Christine’s heart was really with Paul’s but knew Danny wanted to steal Christine back…maybe Phyllis should have included Mary Williams in on her schemes?

They quite possibly would have had it been brought to fruition. There was actually some considerable backlash the show got for showing Victor and Jill sleeping with each other because people thought it was gross and very un Jill like I wonder if that’s why they squashed it. A long term Victor and Jill pairing would have been pretty tumultuous especially if Billy had turned out to be Victor’s seed instead and would have required a complete equal playing field…the only possible comparisons I can think of for a potential Victor & Jill power marriage would have been either Lucinda & John on ATWT or Stefano & Kate on Days. My guess is the marriage would have ended with either Victor & Nikki and/or Ashley having an affair while Jill got it on with either Ryan, Cole, or yes Nick lol.

You know I thought about B&B recasting Thorne again, this time going with a familiar yet lesser known actor like they did with KA as Taylor instead some name star with baggage like Ingo. I don’t know where Thorne would fit in but since the show feels like it is phasing out the Spencers minus Liam at the moment I see a pathway for Thorne to return. As for Y&R I also thought about possible cast cuts but the show feels so bare bones it doesn’t solve any of Y&R’s real issues at all. I am not sure how TIIC dropped the ball in negotiations with Mealor and King last summer while in the middle of a story and had to do very quick sloppy rewrites for a sudden exit for the pair but Morina & Griffith are long overdue to be fired for gross incompetence. Of course if the “one star who has previously received walking papers” turns out to be Michelle Stafford I think that would be perfectly acceptable. Phyllis has become a dead end character ever since she came back and is completely irrelevant. Same goes with MCE as Chelsea.

Thanks. I initially didn’t have an opinion of Edson as Stacey until the writing turned Stacey into a sanctimonious blackmailing hypocrite and Edson’s low energy made it even worse especially when she was paired with Kale Browne. Michael and Stacey were unlikeable and unwatchable. As for GL she was thrown into the black hole that was the Mindy/Nick/Eve triangle with low energy Edson again playing an unlikeable unwatchable character. Things improved somewhat when she was later paired with Ed but by that point the writing was on the wall.

LOL! Here are some other Bell soap classics lol

MTS’s notorious wig:

Thanks I forgot she was on GH. How was she in the role? I know Stacey and Eve weren’t the best characters on AW and GL.

LOL. A few years earlier she had something similar going on in the movie One Crazy Summer although it looked more bob-ish that what she had on Dallas.

Thanks lo I can see a tiny resemblance but after I also came upon this particular Ms. Foster’s LinkedIn page & biography I don’t believe this is the same Ms. Foster we’re thinking of. But it could be her, might have to do some more digging lol.

Very interesting discussion topic! One performer I do wonder what happened to was Kimberly Foster on Dallas as I did think Michelle’s revenge was about the best thing of Dallas’ final season. Last credits I could find for her was AMC in 1995 and from the clips I saw she looked great. I wonder what happened after that. Whatever happened to Hilary Edson of AW and GL?

#1-I could it see being Days’ Hope as others have stated but I also wonder if it is B&B. “Major character” could mean anything lol with the Buckingham mother now in town I wonder if Zoe would be recast and come back. #2-I agree that may be about Lamon Archey #3-Probably Days, unless Y&R is about to clean house. The star is probably a previously dismissed but returned which could be a number of folks. #4-I think this EB and MTS, joking about how bad the show is 😁

Lol I am trying to think who this is from SOD January 1999: Meow Mix Folks at a recent Hollywood bash were overheard badmouthing a former East Coast daytime diva. Digs about her age and recent career slump were fast and furious. One person even questioned if the actress was still alive! My, how times have changed. Not too long ago, no one would have taken the chance of being on this Queen of Mean’s bad side. Kathleen Turner? Judith Light?

Noah’s story is terrible. Pining away for Tessa is ridiculous so much for the supposed heartbreak he had in Europe. Then again, everything about Y&R is terrible right now.

It's so strange Shirley as it turned out was married to wealthy industrialist Gene Desmond (played by the late Christopher Allport) who hired Michael to be the Desmond Industries lawyer, which Michael even trying to get Christine to join him at Desmond to Paul's chagrin and we where promised an introduction to the extended Desmond family along with a possible Patty reintroduction but by the summer of 2000 the entire story was completely dropped altogether.
