I don't know. I'll never forget how INCREDIBLY fake Susan and Liza were at the Daytime Emmys; they're MOTHER AND DAUGHTER and they looked SO artificial just telling each other how talented the other was and how much they loved their shows!

It would NEVER work.

Liza deserves to be far away from Susan. I don't mean that in a mean way. I just mean, it'd be better for the two to have their OWN territory.

Then again, I hope Liza, Lindsay and other "Passions" actors stick with the "Passions" spinoff on the INternet or another network. ;)

Lindsay Korman Hartley (Theresa) - I could see her on General Hospital. Perhaps she can be a Cassadine family member or Brenda's cousin

Silvana Arias (Paloma) - One Life to Live

Emily Harper (Fancy) - I think the NBC executives and JER like her a lot. I can see her being cast on Days of Our Lives. If not, I can see her on The Young and The Restless and General Hospital.

Heidi Mueller (Kay)- The Bold and The Beautiful as Rick's girlfriend

Dylan Fergus (Noah) - One Life to Live

See, I would expect to see her on DOOL (if a character in her age group is needed) because she has a DOOL 'look' and is familiar to one of the consultants (JER, who seems oddly obsessed with her/her current character) and to NBC Daytime executives - "Fancy's World" and how she's been the main one doing the bulk of PSNS promotional work over the last 6 months. They even have a photo of Fancy and the link to Fancy's World on the DOOL homepage.

Emily Harper (Fancy) - ATWT or DAYS

Lindsay Hartley (Theresa) - B&B

Brook Kerr (Whitney) - ATWT or OLTL

Ben Masters (Julian) - AMC, DAYS or GH

Kim Johnston Ulrich (Ivy) - ATWT, B&B or Y&R

Everyone else, I'm sorry about your luck :lol: I can see the majority of the cast on upcoming telenovelas on MyNetworkTV. I would include Juliet Mills (Tabitha), but I believe she's been ruined by PSNS and I can't take her seriously as an actress anymore. I'll always think of her as the witch from PSNS. She's forever typecast :(

When SuBe went off I expected to see some of those actors elsewhere and have been surprised by those that have and haven't (Christina Chambers but no Priscilla Garita? Like 'em both, but dang), so now I'm not expected to see any of these people again.

I'd love to see Lindsey Hartley show up elsewhere, and I agree with the idea that Harper could show up on Days. She seems like she could fit either with Phillip/Shawn/Belle or Sami/Lucas/EJ, and she is talented (one of few new actors to draw me in instantly).

If Passions does continue on the internet (pay per view), they will likely make pocket change compared to their current paychecks. And I'm sure that a vast majority of the cast has no interest in acting on the internet. No exposure! However, if that happens... which ones will stay and which ones will go?

It seems like the less or least talented ones make it farther than the ones you would expect. For instance, I thought Jesse Metcalfe and Molly Stanton (1st Charity) were the worst actors on the show. Lo and behold, they left PSNS and immediately landed on shows - Molly even had a co-lead on a show. Comparing them to better performers such as Natalie Zea (2nd Gwen) and Donn Swaby (1st Chad) and it's 'whoa'

Luck and connections

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
    • @janea4old Your detailed explanation and delving into the psychology and motivations is no doubt the opposite of what we will see onscreeen. As @ranger1rg stated we will get a few scenes and some sketchy explanations. Like the adoption of Aria, most of it will take place off screen.
    • I'm suddenly fearful that DAYS is going to pull a Flowers-for-Algernon stunt and Bo's progress will be reversed.  While @te. is stuck on Abe's tiny bedroom, I can't stop thinking of the size of Bo's huge hospital room.
    • Okay, why are Paulina and Abe sleeping like that?!  I'd take a screen grab if I wasn't lazy, but come on.
