When Tyler Christopher was fired in 1996, it was a shock too and never explained....

so wendy is on contract, but not his brother ? weird....

and we didnt know whos his father is..john or stefano? she knows but we don't

At that time cancer was a forbidden word...but it was cancer for sure...

maybe greta is still stefano's daughter...

I do wonder why they never bring back Kauffman Demott from the dead. He could be delussional and claimed C.C. abducted him in order to get Brandon from a fragile Gina. Seeing a malicious Gina, he would team up with Santana to get custody of Brandon. Finally his illness was Kirk Cranston's doing . He was brainwashed...

yes....that changed with the costume party katherine and rex organized in 1991.....everybody was there...from that moment, there were more interactions...

Eric was played by a fine actor, yes, but I didn't see him with a romance with any santa barbara girl.

the teens plots were supposed to be comedic and fun: escape to hollywood (booooorrrring), the motel, the school. But the audience wanted drama. So Christie was added, then Hayley (Tricia Cast and Stacy Edwards were stronger actresses than Julie Ronnie....). I don't know what was the purpose of Jackie Parks because it didn't go anywhere...A variant of Mrs Robinson? In 1985, we have Gina trying to frame Eden for C.C's attempted murder too. A very dramatic story. And the beginning of Santana/cruz/eden/ kirk square...

I like Julie Ronnie. Her version of Laken is naive, ingenue...Not fond of at all of the recast. We switched between miss goody two shoes and vamp. Susan marie snyder's version remind me early days of Jane Wilson.

In the beginning, Kelly and Joe were supposed to be the supercouple of the show. They have to fight rival Peter Flint, Mason 's manipulative ways and C.C's disapproval. Eden was described as fickle, free spirited, flirting with Warren, Lionel and Cruz. Then Dane Witherspoon was fired. Mark Arnold didn't not fit in (lack of charisma and presence, Robin did not like him ). Joe was kiled and at this moment Kelly is considered a damsel in distress and pursued many love interests ( Nick, Dylan, Pearl, Jeffrey etc...) The show needed another super couple. The Lockridges were slowly backburned so the writers paired Cruz with Eden. It was a hit with an incredible chemistry...

Pearl/Julia would have been very odd. I like Courtney/Pearl. Julia Campbell was very refreshing and full of life. Too bad the writers made her Madeline's killer ('Madeline was a true villainess mais too much stereotyped). But they were going to run of suspects...Pearl's past was interesting and intriguing. But again never developped it and Brian was bland. So many missed opportunities again... (sorry for my poor english..I am French)

how did Bateman not realize he 'd be fired? C.C. was comatose for weeks/months...In every soap parody, it is the beginning of the end for an actor....Many actors didn't make it in the C.C so he could have been suspicious... I liked Bateman... He had chemistry with everyone..acting classic but solid... Not fond of Allan... And curious about Lloyd bochner...His introduction to C.C in a tv promo was intriguing and appealing. Too bad he bad a heart attack (but survived rather the opposite of his Dynasty character, Cecil Colby).He had style, nobility and wits https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqkXG3gixtA

Well Brick was tied to Capwell and Lockridge's siblings. So it was difficullt to find a love interest.....too bad Santana didn't work....
