For the poster who said that KT was the only Mindy for them, I disagree. Kimberly Simms damn near owned the role in the early 90s.

On DAYS the Jack recasts after Matthew Ashford left were pretty mismatched IMO. Wasn't there a Jennifer recast around that time too?

GL has had their share of bad recasts. Marty West (Shayne), the last Annie Dutton, and Ryan Brown(Bill). Either didn't have the chops or were terribly miscast in their roles.

The last guy to portray David Grant was pretty bad also, or so I had thought. I saw him on DAYS a couple of months ago and didn't seem as sucky as I had previously thought. He was simply miscast in the role of David.

ETA: Anyone remember that Antonio recast a few years back? Talk about bad. I never thought anything would make me miss the Antonio we have currently.

First of all Lily isn't Neil daughter second of all what do you mean by ghetto. Because she isn't boring & bland like CK. the backstory they gave Lily was how Davetta played her. They change Lily to fit Bland & Boring CK.

I can't picture CKLily hanging around rough, tough, wrong side of the tracks kids. Since you like to bring up Ghetto right there say that Lily wasn't hang around stuck up kids that whine if their fingernails break. Or the kids was snotty princess that think they better then their own family memebers. That's the only thing CK emotes. She never connected with her family especially Victoria Rowell Dru. & most people who fell for DavettaLily saw the mother & daughter bond or connection something CKLily lacked.

Look y&r fan, I know that you have the right to choose whatever actress you like I respect that but in the fall it's going to be lots and lots and lots of recasts (which include your favorite actresses) that you won't believe :D trust me

    • Any fan of RuPaul would dispute calling any of these examples “drag”. A costume?, A disguise?, A lame attempt at humor? -- yes -- Drag? -- nope
    • No asterisk. I meant that the circumstances during the first year were in her favor.
    • Maybe I am misunderstanding you? Are you suggesting that her success at GL should have an asterisk next to it because she was smart enough to exploit a weakness in the marketplace to gain ratings?  Note: Try not to take this personally—I’m not accusing anyone of being consciously misogynistic. I’m simply proposing that the origins of certain ideas about Ms. Phelps—such as claims that she was unprepared or a poor manager of her writing staff—may be rooted in misogyny. Perhaps, with the benefit of hindsight, it's worth reconsidering those opinions. At the very least, imagine being one of the few women in the room while a male network executive tries to decide what women want to watch during the day. That context has certainly led me to reassess many of my own long-held views.
    • Through 78 and 79 under Marland and Pat Falken smith GH was still heavily hospital based with a mix of storylines. The Doctors would have been fine had they followed that template. Once GH went with Ice Princess all bets were off.Who knows how much TD would have copied that direction? And OLTL, DOOL went in that direction quite heavily while other shows dabbled in far out stories. The thing is that TD was well set up for an expansion.

    • Aaron Spelling still had clout with ABC in Fall 1984, as I think they knew he was going to pull out all the stops for Dynasty to get to #1, which he did. That's probably why ABC kept Hotel as Dynasty lead out. Fall 1985 with the sale to Capital Cities and Brandon Stoddard arrival, Aaron Spelling would lose his clout with ABC.
    • Correction, July 1991 to May 1995. JFP got the ratings up during her first year, but it also helped that ABC big three were tanking at various times during that year and Days was in their post-supercouple/pre-Reilly mess era. It will always disappoint me that the ratings during the Calhoun/Long/Curlee era did not reflect the quality of the show.

    • Perhaps. But would anyone have wanted The Doctors to turn into what General Hospital ultimately became?  Dear God in Heaven...
    • Thanks @EricMontreal22 that must be one of the last issues. Probably the best soap magazine.
