Listen guys, I have a theory that Passions was always meant to be a 2nd (or 3rd) version of the long-defunct (and my beloved) Santa Barbara. Here's a chart showing why.

Lopez-Fitzgerald = Castillo

Martin= Rafael Castillo

Katherine, Wife of Martin= Carmen Castillo Senora

Luis= Cruz Castillo

Miguel= Ric Castillo

Theresa = Carmen Senorita (daughter

Crane= Capwell

Julian= CC Capwell

Ivy= Sophia Capwell

Sheridan= Eden Capwell

Ethan= Mason Capwell

Fancy = Kelly Capwell

Fox= Ted Capwell

More details to follow

Post what you think about the possiblity.

I actually think you could be onto something here, possibly. I've always compared Passions to DAYS in 1995 or 1996.

Thanks Michael. Believe me, I'm on to something.

By the way- about your avatar Mike= last I checked, GL is still alive and kicking. Don't you think it's a bit morbid to consider a living, functioning soap DEAD? :lol:

LOL! Pretty interesting theory, juniorz!

I've always considered Sunset Beach, though entertaining, a poor man's Santa Barbara.

I have always thought there were a lot of similarities between Julian and Mason. The suave, drunken, Greek chorus kind of role. Lots of dark humor but this sexiness too. And definitely there are similarities between Eden and Cruz and Sheridan and Luis, for sure. And the way both shows beat to a different drummer than the norm. They have so much wit.

haha, i really think you're onto something also! This also reminds me of a Greek soap opera that I watch on Greek satelitte
