AMC: Fan Favorites Returning?

I think Chrishelle Stausse (sp?) is as good as gone. The character is useless, and the actress just horrid. In think the other actress out, the one with the "liability" problem, is Sydney Penny, the "liability" stemming from axing an actress on maternity leave. I'm sure ABC didn't want to open themselves up to a lawsuit, a la Kari Wuhrer at GH. The Jack/Julia thing is filler and going nowhere, and once Tad and Kate are reunited, that's the end for Julia. I wouldn't be shocked to see Melissa Clare Egan gone at some point as well. I can definitely see Liza back on the way home to Pine Valley, but not in the form of Marcy Walker. Didn't she chuck show business to become a minister? I could see Beth Chamberlin fill that role easily. She's working without a contract at GL, correct? Larry Lau back on AMC? It's possible now with Jesse and Angie back, but who would they pair him with? I'm really happy that the show is FINALLY working overtime to get the show back on track. I'm not thrilled with Harmon/Esensten, but I'm hoping the perfomances can overcome the writing.

Given that AMC experienced record low ratings recently, naturally, it follows that TPTB are going to take steps to arrest the decline. (Didn't Brian Frons just do the same thing w/ OLTL?) That isn't insider information, that's common sense.

Two females? Hmm. How about Amanda Baker (not a successful recast, and Fronsie might be itching to bring back "the REAL Babe," Alexa Havins) and Chrishell Stause (not much to do lately, story-wise), w/ Sydney Penny (same as CS) as a possible third. Melissa Claire Egan might be "marked" as well, but that might happen down the road, depending on how Ryan's current story shakes out.

As for who I'd like to see come back --

Julia Barr (Brooke English)

Mark LaMura (Mark Dalton)

Laurence Lau (Greg Nelson)

Dorothy Lyman (the REAL Opal, lol)

Kathleen Noone (Ellen Dalton)

Richard Shoberg (Tom Cudahy)

I'd also to see like Liza return (even if it's not Marcy Walker portraying her) so as to anchor Colby a bit more; and I'd like to see Jake Martin return, as well. Oooh, and how about Devon and Bonnie McFadden, too?

Krystal/Tad/Greg. Think about it.

I know many don't care for Krystal. And I'm with you, I really am. (No. Really.) But Bobbie does have a contract, and as long as that contract is in effect, they have to use her.

RavenBeauty I think deserves some credit *this* time. She's right on this time.

My guesses for the 2 women out are Leven Rambin(Lily & Ava---there's no story for Lily and Ava's a horribly conceived and written character IMHO) and Melissa Claire Egan(Annie, there's no room for her at the inn imho).

Returns----I predict,-----2 or 3 of these----- Laurance Lau as Greg Nelson, Julia Barr as Brooke English, Cady McClain as Dixie Martin, and/or Robin Christopher as Skye Chandler, with maybe Marcy Walker or a big daytime vet --maybe Kristina Wagner as Liza Colby, Alexa Havins as Babe Carey, & Michael Lowry as Jake Martin. I'd also love to see Karen Lyn Gorney back as Tara Martin.

    • So far the only interest I've seen from Evan to Amanda has been listening to Iris's orders to go and seduce her.  So far he hasn't been successful... but who knows. Amanda is unbearable at times. Entitled, spoiled... idiotic. Iris... so blatantly manipulating her and Amanda takes the bait. But I guess... when she gets in trouble... she'll have a chance to learn. That's what makes these shows so interesting.    Oh, no, don't worry. You haven't ruined a thing. Evan has not been on my radar that much... he was not one of the characters I was caring particularly... so nothing much has been changed for me. I don't think he has the stuff to ruin Rachel's life. He's just a pretty guy that can follow orders. Iris on the other hand... is dangerous.

    • The show has gone back to 10/10 entertainment! I'm glad that I was right in feeling that what were experiencing were growing pains. I'm sure they are not over yet, but I'll know that we always comeback to quality drama. I think it's going to be a hell of ride (in a good way) from this moment on. BTG has that magic that not a lot of shows have. I'll update more... when I'm done catching up.
    • So very glad to hear this. Yesterday I suddenly thought; OMG, what about spoilers, have I just  ruined things for Maxim in getting carried away with interest in Evan, who was so well-written & well-acted. BTW, your fan review of this episode was a sight for eyes that had not seen one of these for a little bit too long, LOL!!!  Mitch is also fascinating to me but in his case it's because he was all in with Janice & her nefarious plan & then he did this turnabout we've mentioned & he basically got off scot-free.
    • It does seem cheap and lazy for this show to have just one family. Passions was heavily criticized but it was nicely structured with a total of four families.      
    • I think it was definitely a surprising reveal in the storyline. I had a hard time appreciating Evan because I couldn't get behind his interest in Amanda. But that's because I never thought Sandra Ferguson made her a compelling character (although to give her credit she occasionally had decent emotional scenes with Mac or Rachel).
    • I'll even go further... I'll make her re-think BeLief and create a new patent. Brooke needs stuff to do. Anything other than beg or be in her panties. We need her to be creative. But sadly Bradley has a very low opinion of these characters. To him Brooke is nothing more than sex and scandal... or a pathetic doormat. Ridge is nothing more than a chauvinist pig that needs to pit women against each other to feel like A MAN and Steffy is nothing more than her father's guard-dog. I don't even want to open my mouth about Hope. She is such a fiasco in my opinion... I will not suffer if they kill her off. Bradley pooped on her character and now it's too late to fix it. Annika is great and I would hate to see her go, but slutty Hope was not her thing. The vibe was missing.     
    • I've seen Jason interact with Mitch and annoy him. That's as far as I recall. I didn't even have a slight idea that Evan had a vendetta against Rachel... That came as a surprise to me. I thought Evan was Iris's dog and that's it. Now he's definitely more interesting.
    • Thanks for these. I can't recall -- did Evan's vendetta have any position on Mitch, or was it all about Rachel? @Maxim have you seen any Frames intreracting with Mitch in any way?
    • Thank you for the tag! It's always a pleasure to see these little pearls of memories. 
    • Uh-oh. Today just might’ve been the first Paula/Jeanne stinker. I have a feeling whose fault that might be though. So, Doug III is getting a job at the Pub?  It’s good to see him interact with other characters. I enjoyed his scenes with Roman, even though the talk of Frankie and Max seemed a little random. And it also could be really interesting now that Tate knows. Days really need to start pushing their rivalry again. We need some follow up from the punch. Tying it all to Holly, to Sophia’s pregnancy, to the guys that Doug III owes money to could be good.  But yeah, wayyy too much Leo again in today’s episode. Seriously, has anything changed with this nothing character? I thought it was all Ron’s fault, but maybe Greg Rikaart is (partially) responsible for Leo being so insufferable.  And yeah seriously, Rafe needs to throw all of these people out of his house. Including Gabi

      But I do wonder who’s the mysterious voice that Gabi overheard with EJ on the night he was shot. Based on yesterday’s episode, I have a suspicion.
