I would be suprised if this hurt ratings at all. There are many Jan haters who loved Heather Lindell, she just acted the stories JER wrote for her and she gave it her all.

I still cannot wait to see this!!!!!! I wonder if she looks any different now....and if her acting has changed in any ways....

This is great news in a way. Heather's back in the soap bizz. It's just sad to see that she joins a soap that is so bad right now (although all of them seem pretty bad, ATWT is the worst).

I hate that Lindell's character is gonna be involved in Kate/Brad stuff. I'd love to see her interact with Henry and Vienna, or even Jack. Just not those two.

Awwwwwww. :(

Hopefully ATWT will see her talent and hire her PERMANANATLY!

I do worry though, because the fact she did not audition for this makes me worry a little. She's back in the soap business but only for three days...I wonder if she will try auditioning for other soaps perhaps....

I don't get why Brad and Katie need a foil. They're not even a couple. We had this same news when Robin Mattson was hired as Cheri and that went nowhere so I'm not even going to pay attention to this until I see the story. Katie has always had never ending stories with crazy women - Dahlia, Pilar, etc.

Heather Lindell is a helluva lot better actor than Austin Peck. ATWT is lucky to get her IMHO. Heather is pretty and a good actress. She was pretty good on DAYS, not Emmy-worthy, but definitely nowhere near horrible! Ron, you may have her confused with the original Jan Spears, Heather Lauren Olson, who was definitely horrible.

Happy for Heather in her new job, but sad for her that it's only 3 episodes. I hope she audtions for ONE LIFE's Sarah (formerly Flash) Roberts. She'd be good as Cord & Tina's daughter-----Tina's fiery & sometimes bitchy personality and Cord's dark wavy hair. She'd be great.

Hey! It happened with Jennifer Landon, who plays Gwen and now Cleo. She was only on for a day and a few weeks later, TPTB announced they were so impressed with her that they hired her on a contract basis. :D

But as of late, she barely misses a day on the screen, therefore making even her biggest fans just a wee bit tired of her being on AALLLLL the time!!..... <_<

    • I did some research and the story wrapped up with a caretaker responsible for Georgina's death who then  tried to do away with Laurie but a vision of Georgina spooked him and he fell to his death. So there was a supernatural element.
    • AI has it wrong. David was working as an aide at PV Hospital due to failing to save his brother's life and refusing to continue as a doctor. His true profession was revealed later. Edna had divorced him while he was in Vietnam and he had no reason to be in contact with her. He had no idea that he had a daughter.  Ruth was Ruth Martin, she was still married to Joe, not Jeff. He was not deceiving Ruth as he believed that Edna was his ex. The poisoning story happened late in his run and probably introduced when they knew Gleason was leaving. AI's interpretation of him as conniving seems to based on that short lived poisoning story and other misinformation. For most of 76 he was involved in the Ruth/Joe triangle to the point where Ruth was ready to divorce Joe and leave town. Joe had to have surgery, David operated and Ruth suddenly realized she wanted to stay with Joe despite all the problems they'd been happening. David then got involved with Christina with Jeff and then Edna as complications. And he arrived late 75 not 76.
    • Interesting that they started going into a supernatural direction with ghosts - I don't think they really did that before? I wonder if it was a response to getting put so late in the afternoon and I guess trying to appeal to that former Dark Shadows audience? 
    • That makes sense then! Is there a place where you can read more Daytime Serial Newsletters? They sound very informative. Thank you

    • Yep. Access to the Vault works fine but upon downloading attempts an error message pops up.   Maybe it is just a temporary glitch.

    • I'm pretty sure this ep is  from Dec 73 From the Daytime Serial Newsletter Ian and Valerie Northcote are deeply concerned over Laurie's  life being increasingly dominated by hallucinations and fantasies about Georgina, the former owner of the house the Reddins recently bought and are now living in. Doreen Post (Linda Purl) was involved in that story .Perhaps she was going to be revealed as Georgina's daughter? Wonder how that story evolved and whether it was wrapped up before cancellation? and thanks to @skylark
