Greg, Jenny, Jesse, Angie, Tad and Liza in the early 80s?

Ellen Winters. The b*tch is back.

Miami 4 has been the best housewives show in ages. Old-school, harmless fun. I wish Atlanta and NY would go back to that.

How many times has Josh Griffith changed his mind about Ashland?

That story sure made her look pathetic in my eyes for no reason. I found TJ so sleazy and not worth a mother-daughter triangle.

Is this supposed to be a "daytime first" sort of thing, or something that will turn B&B around "forever" again? BTW the Thomas actor doesn't look like a Forrester at all.

Where is Little Eric? Why haven't they brought him yet? Who was raising him? CJ or Amber?

Melanie Smith as Macy Alexander on B&B

I thought that ED's Blake would turn out to be Beth. I also think that Arianne Munker was hired to play Hope Bauer in the 80s, but she ended up being Christine Valere for some reason.

Perhaps Bill Bell would continue working with Ridge, Thorne, Brooke and Caroline as a unit. I could see Thorne and Brooke becoming a couple after his divorce from Caroline. KKL was pregnant in 1990, so "Rick" might turn out to be B&B's version of Brooks Prentiss. A baby with four parents.

GH's Brad was the Leo prototype.

Something similar to DOOL's Mickey in the 70s. I love the idea.

Thank you for answering my question. I find Courtney fascinating and she deserved another long-lasting soap role.

I could him with Macy, minus the singing. He also had a lot of chemistry with KKL. There was no reason for his animosity towards Ridge to be dropped. Jeff Trachta was a brand new character. CN was handsome enough for the Winsor Harmon era stories.

@vetsoapfan do you think that Jacqueline Courtney could take over as Alexandra Spaulding after Beverlee's exit?

He will end up being Rebecca Kendall.

Why did they get rid of Clayton Norcross (for Jeff Trachta of all people)? Thorne went from preppy and fragile to 80s Lauren Fenmore hair and singing duets with Macy. Thorne#1 and Caroline looked like old Hollywood stars. I can't believe how good the show looked in its first season. And yes, I am one of the very few people who liked B&B much better before the Spectra gang showed up.

What is the point of turning Days into a joke where nobody is laughing? There is nothing soapy about the show. Has RC given up on trying to deliver a real storyline. I used to love his early OLTL and GH, the problem is that he never did any "early Days". The Sarah stupidity is tackier than the character names on Ambitions.

The Nikolai "Kolya" Rostov would have been a much better Prince Michael. (You probably don't get this from this gif)

Unless Phoebe turns out to be Finn I can't see anything that shocking about a dead person showing up alive on a soap. Another weird thing is that B&B has been promoting this twist/event for quite some time. They never did that before with things like Maya's revelation or Sheila's return.

I always wanted Dave Reed to show up for a special "What If" episode. How things would have been for both families if Brooke never met the Forresters.

Crystal Chappell as GL's Blake. I am not a big fan of her personality, but Liz Keifer had turned the character into a bore. The show should be focused on Roger and Holly's daughter who was raised as a Bauer, is the mother to Ross Marler's kids and has so much history with the Spauldings.

B&B would be crazy enough to make Bill Spencer Eric's son for no real reason. We might get Stephanie's ghost visiting Broooke. (Please don't make Brooke pregnant) But I think it will have something to do with Steffy's maternity leave. I've read a crazy rumor about Phoebe being alive, but it makes no sense. So it could be it.

Loving's Roya Megnot (Ava) was considered for the part before KW was cast

The network wanted two hours of Dynasty every week. It was not a spin-off, it was a clone. They were crazy to think that it could work with a Fallon recast. They had a great cast and their two seasons were much better than Dynasty during that time, but the show had no identity of its own. The same opening, same business, a different Blake, Alexis, Krystle and the list goes on. If the spin-off was more like Knots Landing or Melrose Place, it might have worked. There was no reason for Monica and Bliss to be related to the Colbys. Jason was not needed at all and neither was Frankie.
