That was a VERY good read. Thanks for posting!!!

And it was nice, if out-of-the-blue, for Variety to do something like that.

But I still say that I REALLY want to see Faith Hill try her hand at the Brooke character. I remember the days back when I was stupid and thought she and Katherine Kelly Lang WERE the same person. (Oh, it was years ago, thank God.)

Thanks so much for posting that. I love those four, even Ronn in all his eccentricity and offbeat fashion sense. But KKL?!? :wub: :wub: :wub:

That's my Girl! Brooke Logan was the first soap character to help me get over my Eden (followed by another Brooke- Ms.Brooke English).

This article was great.

You must click on the author to find some more fabulous readings. SO happy for Michael Maloney now writing for Variety - who was B&B/Y&R editor at SOD in the mid-90s. I met him online two years ago and had some very interesting e-mail-exchanges with him.

He knows his stuff about soap operas.

Wow, first of all that second pic of KKL is just WRONG. But we won't go into how that camera made her face hideously ugly.

No, if you get some straight up, lookin' into the camera publicity shots of both Faith Hill and KKL, you may see what I mean.

But since I first picked up on this doppleganger, it seems fair to let me fantasize about Faith replacement in my mind...

Oh god...this sleeping pill is about to knock me out. Forgive if I sound idiot.

    • 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!
    • That would have made sense. Did all these characters get dropped when DePriest left or had they already been dropped?
    • The other issue with Missy: in June 2020, she "liked" some social media posts by Candace Owens -- things Candace said that were against Black Lives Matter.  That is described here https://tvline.com/news/melissa-reeves-racism-days-of-our-lives-instagram-controversy-2894568/ I don't know if that was ever resolved.
    • She appeared onscreen not long after Rose Livingston and Sara Montaigne, and we found out that Sara was Rose's estranged daughter. I wonder whether Peggy might have been part of that family group -- or else they were just juggling a few different potential mysteries so that they could develop whatever seemed to be getting the best response from the audience. They didn't do anything much with Rose and Sara really either. Maybe Rose would have become more prominent if Rachel and Mac had split up over Mitch, or if Sara had really flourished. In some ways I can picture Cheryl being affected by MJ's prostitution similarly to how Josie was distressed by finding out about Sharlene. But I can also see that Josie as a Frame being involved with Matthew would have different stakes for Rachel and Sharlene than Cheryl being involved with Scott. I do think the solution for Cheryl would have had to be a badder boy than Scott -- either a real bad boy who would do her wrong, or the kind of bad boy (not Chad!!!) who is essentially misunderstood and other people just don't understand. Cheryl would also have been better off with some friends her own age. Matthew and Josie benefited a bit from having other teenagers to interact with.
