Recommended Posts

  • Members

Crystal Chappell confirmed on her site that she has signed a new contract with GL, but only for a year.

She said, "I am so happy to be staying on Guiding Light for another year. They are my family and hopefully, Olivia will find her own light. Regardless of how some people feel about Olivia, I have always appreciated all the fans of the show."

Personally, I think the fact that she only signed on for ONE year says it all. She must just want to finish up her current storyline and some stuff after, then she's gone.

Crystal would've been good on GH or something. Even though I like the actress playing Kate Howard, Crystal would've made a FIERCE Kate. Also, Crystal and Maurice both worked together before, when they were day players on AMC.

If Y&R were actually watchable, she would've also made a fantastic Diane Jenkins recast as well.

Are you sure about that?!

She had the itch in her butt to leave GL for OLTL when the Paige recast came up...now there's no buzz.

Maybe she realizes how risky the climate is in daytime TV. Cancellation rumors abound and across the board. If one of the safe choices didn't offer anything at renewal(ABC or Bell), why the heck would she jump ship to a show that would probably offer her less money, less screentime, and less award recognition?!

Not to mention at a show like GH, she would have to fight for airtime and Emmy recognition with the rest of those b***hy actresses! They are great, talented actresses, but b***hy nonetheless!

Crystal Chappell may want to leave GL, but girlfriend is smart for sucking it up and sticking it out for another year. She's realizes she needs GL just as much as they need her.

    • 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?
