Personally, I loved Colleen as Felicia. She was the original and the best. It's probably the writing, but Lesli's Felicia has become incredibly useless and annoying IMO. If I were in charge, she would be the first character I'd write out.

I think Colleen Dion was fine when Felicia was younger. I was just neutral on her when she came back a few years ago and had that fast fling with Nick. However, I'm not sure that she could take it to the level that Lesli Kay can. If Brad would give her some material, I think Lesli Kay could blow us away. Even without a huge story, LK can own any scene she's in. Like a few weeks ago when we'd see Felicia for maybe a minute a day, she'd make her presence completely known. And I don't really think that Felicia's current situation is based on LK at all. Felicia was always the rebel and what she's doing now is just continuing that. And you can't say useless without including Thorne and Jackie.

These newbies like Brandon Beemer may have a pretty face, but I think Lesli Kay can back up her great looks with some great talent. I think if she was written out, it'd be a HUGE waste of talent.

Right you are! Just goes to show that my usually iron clad memory didn't even register Colleen Dion's last turn as Felicia, I didn't find her memorable the last time around...plus I don't think she could have done the cancer storyline one iota better than Lesli did.

Lesli reminds me of Susan Flannery...when the lady retires it'll be time to let Ms Kay rule the roost.

Felicia wasn't on the show in the 80s. Colleen played her from 1990-1992 and again in 1997 and 2004, then Lesli stepped in in November 2005.

I'm kind of hoping that if and when that does happen, Alley Mills will be the one "ruling the roost". ;)

I love Lesli Kay. She's very under used right now, but the show needs to slowly shift towards Felicia as the Forrester matriarch over the next 5 years. As I said in another thread she should be married and have at least two more children, so that when SF is gone there is a strong Forrester woman to center the show around. I think Lesli Kay is the only actress on the show who is in the position to take over that role and who has the charisma and screen presence to lead the show. I just hope Brad Bell and KA see that because as of right now, I don't think they do.

But a potential pairing should not dictate something like this. It would have been way more dramatic if Felicia's child had shown up. It could have explained all the resentment between Felicia/Steph over the years too and lead to some great scenes between those two. Then they could have SORASed Dino and Felicia would be well on her way to becoming a pillar of the show going forward.

I'm not completely unhappy about Donna having an adult son though. I like that the Logan's have been reestablished. I wish they hadn't killed off Storm though.
