Riche made Karen Harris and Richard Culliton use Guza’s projected story and they filled in the gaps. IIRC it took them up to Leslie being alive and Laura faking her death, including the Miranda character and her unknown backstory. But the stuff with Stefan shooting Katherine was added because I assume Shelly Curtis thought they could capture some heat again. Which was wild because before all that and Genie’s extended leave Laura and Stefan were hot as hell.
My favorite part of Miranda was that Guza came back but wasn’t credited yet, and in one episode Luke just told Alexis about her own past and all that was supposed to be part of the Miranda story.
Brenda was supposed to have Sam’s story had she stayed in 2002. The dead Sonny baby, falling in love with Jason. It was ready to go and then Vanessa didn’t come to terms with ABC/Jill.
I don’t know if this was ever supposed to be a a full story on Y&R, but I don’t think we ever found out who called Ryan, Nina, Cole and Victoria and had them meet at the restaurant (Colonnade Room?).
Nobody knows what was supposed to happen with the original Salem Stalker story. By the time they killed Alice the cast knew they were not really dead. What the Marlena endgame was supposed to be fascinates me. Would Reilly have gotten rid of his OG muse?
