I was very surprised to see Tippi Hedren and with no promo! She's fabulous so it's nice seeing her again. But as Gloria's mother? I was shocked what with her being white and having a New England accent.

LOVING the bit with Maria falling in love with William and it turns out he's playing her. I can't wait for everything to come crashing down on her. I thought she was going to be a pure villian with no redeeming qualities. This is making me feel for her, you can tell the evilness is because she's lonely.

Still loving Michelle and Luke! The actress who plays Michelle is so cute and she fits in so well with the cast. Love her scenes at the office with the fabulous gays, with her nutty husband and Luke! *swoon*

Nikki is another surprising one for me. She's not really a bitch at all, thats more Tania, IMO.

I agree, she's terribly miscast. She gives off such a "filthy rich" vibe it doesn't fit with the poor sorroundings.

She's cold. I like that she isn't overtly !@#$%^&*]y. Her catchprase "You can run away now" is hillarious.

I was hoping Hedren would play a wealthy fashion maven or something but the role they gave her sucks so far. Her scene with Gloria was really unnatural.

Are you sure? Or just confused by all the flashbacks?

Nikki and the photographer slept together after getting shitty drunk.

Maria saw Michelle and Luke at a club when she was out with William.

Geez, my affiliates better not pull that [!@#$%^&*]. It's bad enough they cut off the promos for the next FH because they run past 9PM.

I totally wished they would do daily reruns of these dramas, ala SOAPnet. So, in case I miss one episde, I can have the rerun as backup.

I'm willing to bet if these end up in the DVD culture, they will(as dc#### put it) only put the recaps on sale. Which, for some, may be fine, but I feel that a lot of the suspense and tension gets lost in those.

I've been watching this scene over again laughing my ass off! TOO FUNNY. Ought to be YouTube-d.

And what I meant by rerun is that they could replay yesterday's episode during the daytime, up against the daytime soaps. It would give me an opportunity to catch any show that I may miss(because of DVD/VCR mishaps or cable outages).

    • That's a bit murky since that happened during a writers' strike. Assuming Kristen Marie had a 2-year contract she left about when her contract would have expired and Sharlene and Josie showed up right before that. Lemay was officially credited as HW from September 1988 but it seems very probable that his anticipated tenure influenced events that happened during the strike which started in April. 
    • I've seen so many posters over the years who are bright, creative, well-versed in soap history, and who care deeply about the integrity of the genre. I'd put the shows' chances in their hands a lot faster than I would allow any of the "usual suspects" to take control of the dramas they've already helped decimate. When I returned to university in the 1980s, I created a bible for a new soap and presented it in my screenwriting class. It was in reaction to how badly I saw the network shows being butchered at the time. The creative process was thrilling; a total joy, and I still smile when I remember the positive feedback I received from the professor and my fellow students. I was used to seeing written commentary from professors on my work. This one wrote me a long, complimentary note on the final page of the bible, but also graded it 97%, A+. I was beaming ear to ear for days!

    • Thanks. I do wonder if Rose was meant to be more given the caliber of actress they hired. I remembered Sara and Peggy staying longer as they were still on when Soapnet started their repeats. I wonder if that was part of the reason they brought Jake's brother in. 
    • Speculation about Missy Reeves' potential evolution on basic civil rights doesn’t change my opinion of her. My view is shaped entirely by her public social media presence—which I find unpalatable—and I have no interest in learning more beyond that. I simply liked Jennifer’s hair and dress. That’s as far as my admiration goes.

    • Cheryl was gone before Lemay came back but I agree with your thinking that he would rather a character from a family he introduced to the show than a family he did not originate.  I remember reading somewhere in the early 90's probably after DS left as writer, their was an either a writer or a producer who made a comment that their intent was bring the McKinnon family back to AW.  Would have made sense for the newer viewers from the 80's.  Much like Lemay's attempt to bring the Frames back from his writing in the 70's in his 1988 return
    • DePriest left in January 1988. According to the AWHP, Rose last appeared nearly a year before in February 1987 while both Sara and Peggy appeared as late as October 1987.
    • Annie was not brought in as an antagonist for Reva. Reva wasn’t even on the canvas when Annie first appeared in late 1994. 
    • The speculation……….very entertaining. 
    • I had forgotten that several Days stars came out strong against Melissa. Good for them!
