I do remember Joe being on horrible terms with Corday but still saying he would go over for a few shows as part of the swap. It was Corday who never cashed in. 2002-2003 was the time where Corday wanted to phase out Stefano and was pimping Tony. There was even a SOW story where Corday said Stefano's era was done.

Anyway, Corday should cash in on ED and have her come on, even for a few episodes. It may help the EJ character a bit. I know she is too big a character for a short return but a little of her is better then none.

However, knowing B&B and Brad Bell, she may be gone by the end of the year

As for the "flashback only" restriction, I don't buy that, either. I watched the B&B episodes when she was on, and they sure didn't seem like flashback scenes to me!

They were flashbacks - newly created ones.

And to answer the other question: no, Margo Lynley (Koslow's B&B alter-ego) is very much alive. She's working in New York for a fashion house called "Corday/Langan Designs" - that how they last refered to Margo on B&B...

In those 2002 scenes (more than years after Koslow was last seen in LA) Margo asked her son not to head for the west coast and keep a distance to his father, Clarke Garrison (Dan McVicar).

Mascolo should have swapped to DAYS a few weeks later but it did never happen. So B&B owes DAYS nada because it was their doing...
