Fantastic! I love her in the role of Katie.

Good for Heather....

I guess we'll never get the REAL Victoria back on Y&R... *sigh*

Awesome news for B&B.

I'm glad, Y&R doesn't deserve her back. She was one of the best, if not the best, actresses to ever be on that show and they backburnered her character and wrote her as a stupid spineless wimp when originally she was anything but. Then used their re-written excuse of a character as their basis for firing her saying she wasn't a "fan favorite" like Sharon or Christine.

Since her move to the B&B I have actually been interested in tuning in. I'm excited about the long over-due development of the Logan family with another favorite of mine, William Devry. Now if only they would cast Donna Mills as Beth Logan, I would be in heaven!

Wow. I'm terribly indifferent about her presence on B&B. It's nice to know that not every Logan sister is pathetic like Brooke and Donna, though.

best soap news of the year for me.

she is ana maZing flawless actress and deserves the best. i hope B&B stays invested in both katie - and ashley. they have brought new life into this show and added something that had been missing.

i love katie. shes so not whinny pathtic and annoying like her sisters. and i love the katie/steph scenes - SH & HT! thats like.... not even words can tell! and katie/thorne is the only cute good couple on that show.

Glad to hear that. Heather is an amazing actress. Miss her on OLTL.

Great for Heather, but I want her as Victoria Newman on Y&R

What kind of possibilites does Katie have? Obviously a new romance with Thorne would be in the works but other than that, what else? Wasn't Katie introduced as the shy character with acne problems (I think that was a major storyline) in the 80's?

That's my concern also. Hopefully Bell has 3 years of story to give her, because building up families to spar with Stephanie is getting old. Lesli Kay has the goods too, but she's got nothing to do...

Katie has this great relatiosnhip they can play up with Stephanie. She and Thorne could be super good together, plus shes got morals and values unlike her sister. Yes, shes a biut on the borring side... but ya know what the emans in soapland? deep. dark. secret.
