I don't think she's a villian at all. After today, she has shown compassion and selflessness as she brought back three ungrateful women. 

Who? You know what? I'm ready for a storyline to develop here. Maybe Dr. Rolf used a crockpot, salad tongs, waffle iron, mixer, and a potpourri pot on Stacey. You see ... I know that's Stacey Dimera. No one can fool me. I know she's been brainwashed with all those items I've just mentioned. But, why Dr. Rolf would want to brainwash Stacey to be Kristen is something that we don't know yet as viewers.

SMH, You Need some glasses I guess LOL.  A good physique on Lowder, but Martsolf's better,  a lot better looking, a much better actor.  Not Trump orange either LOL.  Kyle Lowder should be doing something other than acting, maybe working at Home Depot.  DAYS get an actor resembling Eric Winter (OG Rex), and forget this terrible Lowder.

can we keep him as recast for Brady? Tired of looking at Eric Martsolf's bloated face, tbh. No shade. 

How on Earth is Eric Martsolfs face bloated?!?!?   He sure looks a helluva a lot better than Kyle Lowder, an better actor too.  Sure you're not talking about Kyle Lowder(Rex)?

It's a shame Leslie Charleson(Monica) is still too ill, I'm feeling she may never be on the show again.  GH should've had especially Michael E. Knight(Martin), Alley Mills(Heather), Bonnie Burroughs(Gladys), Jeff Kober(Cyrus), Réal Andrews(Taggert), Joyce Guy(Phyllis), Hudson West(Jake) & Easton Rocket Sweda(Leo). Since it is a big anniversary, maybe Dioni Collins(Deanna), Risa Dorken(Amy), Dan Buran(Linc), Enzo DeAngelis(Aiden), Finn Francis Carr(Rocco), Denise Crosby(Carolyn),Christina Ferraro(Dr. Navarro),  Jennifer Field(ADA, Arden),  Lily Fisher(Georgie), Nathanyael Grey(Mason), Cyrus Hobbi(Yuri), Arlondriah Lenyea(N'neka), Jaccqueline Grace Lopez(Blaze),  Chauntal Lewis(Nurse Chanel), Frank Lyon(Frank), Heather Mazur(Eileen), Amelie McLain(Charlotte), Trish Ramish(Trish), Zak Risinger(Danny), Ava & Grace Scarola(Avery), & Scarlett Brielle Spears(Donna) could've been in it too. LMFAO at this huge cast, and I've actually left off some of the dayplayers,

Ugh...why did they have to break up Liz & Nicolas so abruptly today?  I wanted more entanglements and story between them, but now she's going to end up back in that dead-end relationship with the world's worst vampire sucking the life out of her again.

The only good story right now is Laura & the Cassadines.  They need to expand that family into a darker version the Quartermaines.  Everything else is just dull or dreadful right now.

Britt being on a wall of GH's deceased staff was a nice touch, but I didn't see Audrey up there.  Is she not dead?  Where is she?  Weird that Edward & Lily (as donors?) are so prominently at the top compared to the leading characters that played doctors and nurses at GH.  I think I saw Alan and Tony, but I don't think I saw Amy.  I guess we'll see the wall in greater detail for the 60th anniversary or whenever they do Epiphany's death episode.

 In the past, they did show Amy Vining(Shell Kepler) on the memorial wall.  Audrey is still alive, she has never been killed off, and Rachel Ames who played Audrey, is still alive.  She is 93 years old.

Thanks @David_Vickers. I'm in the process of December/January Additions to the GH List. I missed that!   

You're welcome., just noticed by leaving the "n" out of Chauntal lol. Been a hobby of mine to keep up with current cast lists of soaps.

I think every former DAYS actor who's still alive is basically on recurring... except Maree Cheatham, who should've been recurring for the last 2 decades. 

LOL, true and agree on Maree!

Naming that baby Caroline Carly is total bullshit!! Willow IF she survives, needs to drop Michael and confess her love for Carly IMHO.   SMFH. This Carly worship is sickening, as is Carly and Willow making Nina the devil, when Carly brought it on fing self. 

On GH, dayplayer Chautal Lewis as Nurse Chanel, was refered to by TJ, as "Nurse Williams" on the 1/18 episode. 

Sick of and wish DAYS would axe..........Leo, Gwen, Xander, Rolf, Orpheus, Sloan(re-cast, I think the character would work with a good actress), Kristen, the Devil/Susan. 

Put on Contract  & Leave ON Contract---- Cady McClain(Jennifer), a good recast for Allie (since heard Lindsay Arnold is leaving soon), Tanner Stine(Joey), Lucas Adams(Tripp) and Bryan Dattilo(Lucas). Bring on a permanent recast for Rex Brady, although, maybe even give Kyle Lowder a contract, since he's improved. Bring on Cassie, maybe Mike, Parker, Chloe's sister, maybe Alex's other brothers.

LOL, same thing Bryan Dattilo(Lucas), Matt Ashford(Jack), Melissa Reeves(ex-Jennifer), Cady McClain(Jennifer), Kyle Lowder(Rex), George DelHoyo(Orpheus), James Read (ex-Clyde), Heather Lindeel (ex-Jan) and on and on etc.

I always expect to read that Chloe is returning, whenever I am opening such a DAYS thread. Happy for Louise Sorel.

But Nadia Bjorlin(Chloe) has been on the show for awhile now, why would she be returning? 

For Nina's sake, really wouldn't want Willow to die, but for my sake yeah kill her off and make Sasha really Nina's daughter.   

UNDERUSED GH --- Monica (Agreed, but I too think it's due to Leslie Charleson's health the last few months, the writing stating "Monica is under the weather" makes me think GH may be preparing us for the possible exit of Monica,  I am afraid, hoping I'm wrong, that Leslie is ill with some besides her falling accident.  I think she hasn't been on social media for all or most of the time she's been off the show as well. 

UNDERUSED GH --- Taggert, why isn't he on more,  Real Andrews has been ill, read somewhere that his cancer might be back, IF that's not the case, then why isn't he on more.

UNDERUSED GH ---- Aidan Spencer, Jake Morgan, Danny Morgan, & Rocco Falconeri. These kids are rarely seen, but we get Violet over and over, and she's annoying IMHO.  She's even in the opening, When at least the actor playing Jake should be  since he's been on the show much longer and is I believe 15 now.

OVERUSED GH ---Olivia 

UNDERUSED Y&R --- many ---- Lauren, Michael, Kevin, Chloe, Gloria, Traci, Esther, Jill, Christine, the missing Christian Newman, Kevin & Chloe's kids should be seen a little, as well as Katie, Billy & Victoria's daughter.   Also Tessa, Mariah & Sharon.  More money needs to be put in "Daytime's #1 Drama", so we could get Lily's condo, Lauren & Michael's place, the regular Chancellor mansion set (Abby could move in with Devon), Tess & Mariah's place (formerly Nick's), plus more house sets for people like Adam, Phyllis, etc.

OVERUSED Y&R --- Jack, Diane, Kyle, the restaurant sets.

DAYS ---- needs an infusion of cast so that their many overused sets can get some rest, bring back the "new" Kiriakis living room set, and a house for Brady, and others, who should NOT be living with others since they are wealthy in their own rights.

OVERUSED DAYS characters --- Leo, Gwen, Xander, Kristen, Li, Nicole, Rafe

UNDERUSED --- Abe, Paulina, Doug, Julie, Will, Jack, Jennifer, Shawn, Belle, Maggie

WOW,  surprised that Vail Bloom is returning as Heather.  I had a feeling Y&R might bring back Heather & Lucy.  I wonder if the rumored killing off of Paul will happen now.  OR will Y&R bring back Doug Davidson(Paul) too?

there really hasn't been one but Kyle for example should be as Jack's son.

The situation regarding his birth and upbringing, his feelings about being an Abbott,his business acumen or lack thereof, relationship with his dad and aunts etc should be clearly defined and explored

But he comes across as a fairly basic nice guy. I like Michael Mealor and feel he could rise to the occasion if he was given more to work with.

We've had Fen,Ana, Imani, Ashland etc who all had tremendous potential but ended up being dropped to focus on the life and times of Phyllis.

Quit blaming Michelle Stafford and Phyllis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   It's Sony for not giving the money for the show.   The continual hea writing of Josh Griffith who should've been ousted long ago, and the overdoing of the same ol same ol, and not writing for certain characters like Lauren, Michael, Esther, Christine, Traci, etc. and the overplayed Adam, Victor, Nikki, JackAss, Diane, SluttyAbby, Devon, etc. And sometimes even Phyllis, whom I like is on too much, I'll agree.

Tinker's Fen and Ana could've been a huge couple IMO.

Ana aside, most of what they've tried to do with Black female leads since Hilary (Imani, etc.) are weak imitations IMO. They deliberately sandbagged MM's return AFAIC; they knew a mediocre twin character would not get the traction Hilary had and decided to wait it out, because they were simply not comfortable with a Black female lead on this show today for the same reason GH is clearly uncomfortable with major Black story now. Daytime has regressed a lot in the 21st century and especially the last decade.

Agree wholeheartedly on Ana, Fen, Imani, Hilary, Amanda and Ashland.   Same goes for Faith, Moses, Lily's twins, all could've been big,if written and not given up on! SM

He is the WORST! And I'm glad that Allie is off contract. Good riddance.

IMHO Chandler Massey(Will) is a pretty good actor, yeah he has the smirking ticks, but that doesn't take away from when his acting is good. Also an actor going off contract, does NOT mean they are leaving, SMH.  I think Lindsay Arnold is pretty good.

Jessica Michel Serfaty(Sloan) is the worst actor on the show IMHO.  Remington Hoffman(Li) I'd say is next, with Galen Gering(Rafe) very close.

Nina would've gained my upmost respect had she told Weeping Willow to simply drop dead after Willow told her that nothing changes between them. You expect me to donate to save your life and you still act like a twat in return? Chile, bye. To the afterlife you shall go. 

 

Yes, I'm that petty.

Agreed!

Considering that's how she was meant to play the role it does not surprise me. But, acting-wise, she'd be a WIN overall, but I don't see the need to recast Kristina.

Not Lexi Ainsworth's Kristina, but Kevin & Lucy's adopted Christina, Julie Devlin's daughter from when they were on PORT CHARLES.

I could have seen Kimberly J. Brown (ex-Chloe) as a Serena recast.

I don't know if I'd buy Gina Tognoni as Sarah Webber. I could see her in other roles, though! But I do like this idea. Would be good for the 60th!

Kimberly J. Brown would be a terrible Serena IMHO, maybe a good Christina, but don't know IF I want her back on GH.  She looked too psycho looking as Chloe lol.  Gina Tognoni would be good as Sarah maybe.

Yeah, to be dispensing advice at her empty coffeehouse and start a bland romance with her third cop. But each to their own. 

I think Sharon & Chance will be a great couple.  Rey & Sharon were pretty good together as well.  Nick & Sally are pretty good as well.  The over and over again repetitive couples is stupid on any show, Y&R seems to have do it more than anyone else.  So a big NO to a Nick and Sharon reunion.

Esther should be living at the Chancellor estate as should Jill when she visits. Billy and Chance also.

100 Billion % agree.  Bitch Abby should NO WAY in hell get the mansion when SHE was the ONE in the WRONG not Chance.   Hate that Chance didn't kick her whoring ass out and knock the sh*t out of Devon.

Jess Walton having such a small presence for the year is sad to me.  I know she lives out of state but it just makes me sad.

I agree.  I thought she was supposed to start appearing more last year, that turned out to be untrue.

No way in hell would I axe Sharon from Y&R nor Noah, not even Diane, although I hate the storyline that is dumbing Jack, Kyle & Summer down as hell, making me hate all 3. 

DAYS OF OUR LIVES

1) Leo Stark 2) Kristen DiMera  3) Dr. Wilhelm Rolf 4) Orpheus  5) Rafe Hernandez--- all 5 have been played out.  Plus NEVER bring back Jan Spears or Clyde Weston.   6) Recast Rex Brady, axing Kyle Lowder, casting someone more like original Rex, Eric Winter. 

GENERAL HOSPITAL

1) Dr. Austin Gatlin-Holt (Roger Howarth)-----a promising character, IF given to another, younger actor for a love interest for Maxie.  Roger Howarth should've not be cast as this character.  Howarth should have been brought back as Todd Manning IMHO. Reveal Austin as a con man and NOT really Jimmy Lee's son, bring in Steve Bond as a not-so-dead-afterall Jimmy Lee with a good actor playing the real Austin. 

2) Dr. Hamilton Finn (Michael Easton)----Finn is exactly just like prior character Dr. Silas Clay, why wasn't he not killed off and just brought back, instead creating a similiar character, Finn.   Plus sometimes they have Finn seem to be investigating as if he was his ONE LIFE (and briefly GH as well LOL) character Detective John McBain.

3) Mason Gatlin (Nathanyael Gray)--- pointless character relative for another pointless character

4) Kirsten Storms as Maxie Jones, replaced by Jenn Lilly, Robyn Richards(is she still acting?) or someone else resembling Kristina Wagner(who looks younger than Storms!) Cast and dress Maxie as a fashionista as she is supposed to be. 

5) Gladys Corbin --- they've gone and ruined her redemption, smh.  Have Sonny and Selena run her out of town.

6) Olivia Falconeri Quartermaine ---- overplayed her welcome and storyline, let her be a victim of The Hook. 

7) Amy Driscoll ----annoying as hell. 

THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS

1) recast Abby, maybe bring back Emme Rylan, but I really would cast someone younger than Melissa Ordway or Emme Rylan. 

Axing Sharon Case, Melody Thomas Scott, Michelle Stafford & Susan Walters, would be HUGE mistakes.  Just write good storylines for all 4.

Speaking of Taggert, where the heck is he? He should be all over this Trina stuff. Is there ANYONE who wants Curtis to be her father? It's so lame. 

The temp Taggert needs to be brought back, if Real Andrews is ill again then temporarily.  If Andrews just doesn't want to be on the show,  the recast Taggert should be brought back permanently.  Taggert's  airtime around his daughter's storyline makes no sense.   Also on that same page,  Haley Pullos(Molly) needs to be featured much more, her tv hubby Tajh Bellow(TJ) is on contract, she should be as well.  IF she doesn't want the airtime, recast Molly as well.
