From SOD website:

Art Imitates Life On AMC

Actor/director/producer/writer Melvin Van Peebles will appear on AMC on July 10, playing the part of Samuel's (Mario Van Peebles) father, Melvin Woods. Melvin Van Peebles is, of course, the real-life father of AMC regular Mario Van Peebles.

Emmerdale: Discussion Thread

I agree with everything on this list. This is such a stupid, stupid decision. Done for shock value most likely, without taking the long-term ramifications into consideration.

Meg 🥰
Strange to see her in anything other than Upstairs Downstairs. But her voice was instantly recognizable.

I've said it before - I like JP as a person who I've never heard a bad thing about but he's always been limited, particularly in a more straight down to the middle role. He is a very odd choice for Phillip to me. And I agree seeing him in dress army uniform is comical.

Any time I see JPL as Philip I just think of Ron's stable - he is nothing like what I see the character as being, if he is still a character.
I said this in another thread already but I also think if you are going play up the character being in his old uniform, keeping that long, greasy hair and stubble is a very questionable choice.

B&B: Former actors return

Honestly I’m happy to see Wyatt. I’d love to see his dynamic with Will - not that the writers will be able to cook anything original. Shallow comment: Wyatt’s hairline is doing much better than I was expecting! He looks phenomenal.

Happy to see Denise Richards - my reaction to Darrin Brook's return is way more lukewarm. He was NOT missed. Unless he brings Rena Sofer with him as well.

To this day it would be easy enough to introduce a secret male twin for Sam. Someone who comes to town with a vengeful agenda, like many Cassadines. Or kids of their own.
But I still believe Stavros is Sam's father, so what do I know.

I thought Amy thanked Roman for letting them use the pub for the reception after Sophia’s memorial. Not for the actual memorial.

Crossroads

Thanks @dc11786 I've read about the '80s Crossroads but barely watched beyond Meg's exit as it feels like the show moves further away from what made viewers care. You as always make me more compelled to watch these programs.
I think they only brought Amy back because they had dumped some of the last longtime characters, not in the best of ways either.
