They're going to explain how Warren returned.

Mandy is, like her last return, just a plot device. They have really trashed a character who was for years the heart of the show. I guess SJD's career must not be going well if she returned for this.

They were supposed to have scenes where Steph changed her mind but was trapped, but the show edited that, and a ton of other stuff, out.

I still can't believe they will not bring anyone back for her exit.

Thanks, Carl. Wow, wonder why they edited those scenes out because making it like she committed suicide taints her exit. Craig's not coming back for his sister's funeral? That sucks. Or is Guy Burnet busy doing something else?

I don't think Marquess cared at all about Steph, and her exit shows that to me. If Cheryl had died he'd have everyone she ever knew throwing themselves on her coffin.

Guy Burnet is in America making a film, and Jodi is in a band, but Jake could have returned. So could Johnno. Not to mention some of the people Steph was once close to, like Abby Davies, who was also Lee's longtime girlfriend. Just no interest in the show's history.

Toups, for whatever reason, they chose to chop a ton of material out of the fire episodes. Taylor Sharpe was heavily promoted as being a part of fire week, even on the posters, and then he was barely shown. Kevin the alien was supposed to have his exit in that week, which also built up to Eliot's exit, and all of that was junked, and Eliot left very abruptly. Amy also seems to have a poor exit.

I really wonder about this Ste/Brendan stuff. Are they saying gay relationships are only about self-loathing, abuse, and misery? I get that over and over when I see this story. Notice that Ste is happy with Rae, and is only drawn back to men based on his own demons, not on anything good or happy.

That's what you get for focusing so much effort on a stunt. I still can't believe what they did with Steph's exit. And he has no idea what to do with any characters he created. It's one thing to not get characters you inherited, but people you created?

Frankie was just amazing yesterday, "I'm going to cremate Steph and then spread her ashes over Max's grave." OUCH!

Meh to Mercedes & Riley. I wish they could have waited to start pairing Mercedes off. And a big [!@#$%^&*] you to Cheryl for judging Merc.

The actress that plays Gaby is so awful.

Does anyone else wonder if this Mercedes story was initially supposed to go to Mitzeee? Riley has lusted after Mitzeee. She's slept with Carl. And the initial talk about Hollyoaks Later mentioned that Riley and Mitzeee were going to get together.

I still can't believe they didn't mention any of Steph's family :(

I also read that they are bringing in a new character for Teresa instead of the cop she was with in Later. I wonder why. He was even in their calendar.

      Another World Discussion Thread

      My comment has nothing to do with cast resentment, but does relate to the Finland location shoot: It may be a coincidence, but Jim Matthews died in Finland in 1982.  Hugh Marlowe's final episode was in April 1982, but the character probably didn't die untll May or June. (I'm unable to find the character's date of death, only the date of Marlowe's final episode). SInce Jim and Rachel had very little interaction after around 1975, it is unlikely Jim's death in Finland had any connection to Rachel's potential visit, but the choice to have Jim die in that location at that time is a head-scratcher.

      BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      I totally understand your sloths concern about it and I agree with you. Let’s hope the show plays it’s cards right.    Further comments about the last few episodes: - I liked that one of the attendees was filming the scene. That’s realistic. I wonder if the writers will follow up with that.  - Martin and Smitty trying to drag Leslie out was very heteronormative, so perfectly in line with them two as characters lol.    As for the future: it’s obvious the Duprees will come to accept Eva one way or another, but the rivalry with Kay should be here for the long term   On the topic of acting: the only bad actors I’m seeing are Ted and Derek. Tomas hasn’t proven to be either good or bad, so far, but he’s certainly mediocre and uncharismatic. He sucks the energy out of the scenes and I don’t see any couple of women ever vying for him.

      I’m trying to think which actors VW were working with at the time, and none of them had been there for a while. Even like Mac and Ada didn’t have that big of a part in Rachel’s storyline.  And Jamie was involved with all that movie stuff.

      Brooke did ads before ATWT too. That probably helped get her the job. After ATWT she seemed to branch more into hosting, along with ads.  I think I saw Kelley in an ad or two, but you're right she wasn't on as much.

        Thanks for sharing these. I wonder if Charles might have been in the running for Adam. I know Preacher was a bit of a bad boy at times on EON, but Neal seemed to be a step down, and Robert Lupone had played a similar part on AMC. Given the huge cast turnover at this point I wonder who thought they had been there long enough to go.  Laura Malone/Chris Rich would get a remote within the next year.

      Interesting.  It seems to allude to that statement that Warren Burton made around that time about some AW actors getting special treatment.  I wonder who was resentful about not getting to go.

      The Madonna Thread

      By Maxim · Posted

      Under all of Madonna's social media today there is this wave of negative, toxic, absurd comments by Lady Gaga fans telling her how Gaga surpassed her in concert in Copacabana. I mean... Who the hell cares? Why are these fan communities so freaking toxic??? I'm sure Madonna doesn't care... But still. Have some respect for M. Leave her social media alone. Go cheer Gaga and be happy. Why come and spew hate on M??? Crazy world.

      In Loving Memory: Ruth Buzzi (Letitia Bradford, Days, 1983)

      By Contessa Donatella · Posted

      FYI, again, Ruth/Letitia is not in either of these 2 episodes. So that concludes the 4 episodes I had from Nov. 1983. I don't have the October episodes.

      Eddie has begun uploading the 1990 episodes. I'm so happy about that. I was mindfully taking a break till there's plenty of episodes I can binge watch when I feel like it. Now that 1989 is complete... I can't wait to press play on February 1989 and resume where I left off.
