Character who should (and could) return


Recommended Posts

  • Members

Like to hear your ideas on which characters could return to their soaps.

The criteria would be : those with storyline possibilties with current characters who would also shore up some of the continuity and history problems so many shows have a problem with.

To get the ball rolling:

Y&R

Keemo Abbott - As Jack's son he could return to work at Jabot - a sexy Asian actor would also help to diversify the cast.I thought the writing for the character and Phillip Moon's acting was pretty bland first time around.

Scott Grainger -the character got short shrift last time around.His presence would allow Lauren more to do,especially if he and Kevin became rivals in some way.

Kate Valentine -Esther's seldom mentioned daughter could return home.Perhaps Esther has never been honest about her parentage and Kate could search for her dad.

ATWT

Chris Hughes - the future of the core family -he should be centre stage as a young doctor and romantic lead.

Scott Eldridge - a troublemaker who has a past with Carly and could give Craig a run for his money

Abigail Snyder - her return immediately opens story for Holden and Lily

GL

Shayne Lewis - Reva and Josh need their kids back to give them something else to focus on

Rusty Lewis - working at Springfield PD

Nick Spaulding - comes back a widower ready make his mark in the family

Looking forward to your ideas and stories!!

James Stenbeck - We need a Real Villian back in Oakdale, someone to give Craig a run for the money and get Barbara more airtime.

Lyla Peretti- If anyone could keep Craig in line, it was his Mom! Plus we could have some great mother daughter scenes with Katie and Margo and we would have Susan's best friend back in town.

Frannie Hughes, Chris Hughes, Sabrina Hughes- The Hughes are the core family and yet we never see them! This would open up stories for Bob, Kim, Nancy and Barbara.

I have looked her up on the soapcentral web,:::::::!!!!!!!!!!!!

Marsha Talbot played by actress Giulia Pagano, from April 1985 to 26th of June 1986. This character should come back, just her list of all her crimes takes least half an hour to post.!!!!!!!!!!!!.........

1. Dr. Chris Hughes - Like Paul said, he's not only a blood Hughes, but he's also a doctor, which would make him a perfect romantic lead for the show. He should have never been written out in the first place.

2. Christina Hughes - Don Hughes's daughter, thus making her Nancy's granddaughter and Bob's niece. Adjusting her age for SORAS, she would be just a touch older than Katie.

3. Jessica Griffin - Okay, yes, I know, she was still around just a few months ago, but if they would be willing to do something with Dallas (who is just screaming to be paired with Jade), she would be a necessary voice in the storyline. I don't imagine Jessica would think too highly of Jade.

4. Scott Eldridge - Lisa's son who was involved with Carly in the 1990s.

5. Dr. Annie Stewart - Emily's aunt, Susan's ex-sister-in-law. She and her four children, all of whom would be in their mid 20s, would be perfect candidates for a return to town. Not all of her kids would come, just two or three, and she could come too. Annie would move into Susan's house, which used to be her parents' house.

6. Iva Snyder - Come on, with her biological daughter, son-in-law, and several grandchildren already in town, not to mention her adoptive mother...if Lisa Brown is willing, Iva should have been made a permanant return.

    • Honestly, they should've ordered more of 2000 Malibu Road for the 1992-93 midseason and aired it when Knots went on a break. That was probably their best shot.    Then of course they fumbled Central Park West by airing it in the 9PM slot instead of a 10PM slot where it would've been away from the Fox dramas. CPW got its best rating by airing randomly on a Sunday and when it was taken off the air for a "re-tooling", Party of Five's ratings actually had a spike, so clearly they were feeding off each other. But being a smaller network focused on a certain demographic, Fox could afford to be patient Party of Five, CBS couldn't... 
    • Agree on Bruce Gray as Owen; they needed to cast star power. He was too lightweight against Kim and he had no chemistry with Frances Fischer except more gay buddy or daddy figure.  I loved Nola and Eliot together though. Lee Godart should have been longer term.
    • Andre has the worst fashion of the males which is off putting for someone as fine as he is. His jackets and sweaters look dated and no vintage does not work for him
    • I don’t recall MSW having a toy line in the late 80’s or early 90’s like all those Saturday morning cartoons did LOL but thought this was cute when I saw it in a vintage toy store yesterday:

    • Copying and pasting pasting this here as to not to derail the KL thread lol Wow I forgot CBS actually did try multiple attempts to come up with a soapy replacement for Knots on Thursday nights in the 10/9 slots for the 93-94 season.   Angel Falls had promise but CBS didn’t give it a fair chance. Latham’s Second Chances got even worse ratings than Angel Falls and wasn’t given a second chance when the Northridge quake destroyed the show’s sets. One West Waikiki looked gorgeous but was a blink you missed it affair. Finally we got Hotel Malibu, a quasi follow-up to Second Chances that stayed as the summer replacement series it was. CBS switched gears and had Chicago Hope air in the slot…against ER. It made the Top 30 but obviously underperformed below expectations. CBS gave up, and gave us 48 Hours for years there. It wasn’t until the 2002-03 season when CBS finally produced a Top 20 show for that spot with Without A Trace against an aging ER.
    • Of course I join in on wishing that Peacock & Corday & Sony would all together come to the conclusion that NOW would be a fine time to put some of these gems in the archive on full display!!! But, at the same time I'd like to give kudos to the fact that behind the scenes they've been doing the great work of preservation by taking tapes, etc. & converting them to modern digital formats. Besides the important fact of preserving them it means they are ready to go!

    • Bill and Hayley’s living room set should be redressed as their bedroom. We’ve not seen their gorgeous circular entry way set since the first week? Why not utilise that more and build them a living room off those double doors? The hotel room also doesn’t have a bed? Does only Dani have a bedroom?
