@DeeVee No worries! Just wanted to clarity. In fact Henry Slesar did make a return of sorts to EON. He filled in for Lou Scofield and then took over as full time headwriter.

Film and stage actor Keir Dnllea is joining the cast of the CBS daytime soap “Guiding Light" for a two-month run. Dullea, best remembered for his work in “2001: A Space Odyssey," will portray Dr Mark Jarrett, a splashy publicity seeking doctor who cures “‘critically ill” patients and then leaves town. In the storyline, Claire will have a relapse and turn to Dr Jarrett Dullea was most recently seen on Broadway in the production "Doubles." he starred in the movie " David and Lisa,” was in the sequel to “2001,” and appeared on stage in “Butterflies Are Free." This is Dullea's first work in a daytime drama.
“Guiding Light" has replaced head writer Mary Munislteri with Sherry Andersen and Anderson's real life husband, Joe Manetta. Anderson was most recently head writer with " Days of Our Lives." We understand Anderson is going to give a younger look to the show, using “love-on-the-run” storylines. Look for some gradual changes starting in October, when Anderson’s work first begins airing. Word is that that some of the older characters will be exiting the show.
