Y&R: Andrea Evans to return?


Recommended Posts

  • Members

I read on Gold Derby's Daytime Emmy forum that SOD is reporting that Andrea could be headed back to Y&R. As Patty Williams Abbott, the role she previously played? Nope. As Amber's mother Tawny. *vomits* It'll take her however I can get her, but Paul actually needs family so this seems insane to me.

They could kill two birds with one stone.

Remember Patty went crazy, shot Jack, and left town. Years later, Mary Williams told Paul she had gone missing.

What if she went to California, drifted into drugs and debauchery, and became a tollbooth operator? So her family couldn't find her, she renamed herself Tawny.

Yup...Amber's mama.

This brings Patty back, BUT it also links Amber to a "core" (well, kinda, once was for a few months) family on the show.

Then, if they bring Mary Williams back, she has a wild daughter, wild granddaughter, and a new law-and-order granddaughter. Suddenly, we have hope for some depth and some humor.

That's what _I_ hope happens.

To paraphrase Carolyn Hinsey: If the characters we care about (e.g., Mary, Paul) care about Amber...well then we the audience will start to care about her :-).

Seriously, I am one of the few who LIKES Adrienne Frantz and Amber. She's the only female member of the young set who is NOT milquetoast...who brings energy to her scenes. She's a classic soap catalyst. I think the structural problem is that they didn't mine her B&B history (so she has no depth on Y&R). This would be an alternative way to build some depth.

But I know I'm in the minority on this one :-)
