I think Drake could brush up on his acting on Lifetime MN- making some "I cheated on my wife" movie.

Diedre can hit up Y&R, but afterwards I would enjoy seeing her participate in charities.

I don't want to turn on the tv and find either doing a crappy makeup infor-mercial....Has anyone seen the info-mercials with the women from DOOL and AMC. I hate those

It'd be great to see Dee on any of the Bell shows. I'd be interested to see her take the role of Beth Logan on B&B. That character had so much potential and I don't think Brad Bell could ever put Dee in the "What do I do with her now" like all the other big names who have come and gone on the show. And if they brought on Moscolo to play Massimo again, that'd be gravy.

I think Deidre and Drake should enjoy the fruits of their labor (and the work their lawyers did on their contracts) and retire to their splendid homes in Beverly Hills and Malibu, respectively.

God love 'em both, they WERE DAYS for decades...but I don't want to see either of them at Y&R or B&B or any show for that matter. It'd simple be casting for casting's sake, which I've never been a fan of. It has to make sense. Deidre and Drake no longer make sense in daytime.

ICAM. I, for one, have had enough of shows (ATWT is a great example) hiring "name" actors just b/c they are "names" and not b/c they are actually needed on the canvas. If a part comes along that's right for Dee or for Drake, by all means, hire 'em. But don't hire 'em, "just because". Especially these days, when all soaps are making so many brutal (but necessary) budget cuts.

I know they dont have the money, but if GL really wants the publicity, they should hire DH as Hope Bauer, returning with an edge to kick Alan's ass. I think it would be great to see her and Dusay's Alex go toe to toe and it would certainly give "in negotiation," Zimmer something to chew on. They actually should dump the Zim and bring her on as Hope.

I think both will join the Y&R Deidre Hall as Nikki's sister Casey Reid and Drake a new character for a love interest for Jill or any other leading lady on the show. the show can afford both of them and im sure in order to join Y&R. They will have to take a pay cut but when the #1 rated show wants you but have to take a pay cut seems more of any option then to take a to do it with a last rated soap.

Well, if Deidre Hall played Casey, she could still be called "Doc" (UGH) since Casey, too, is a doctor.

On second thought...

Seriously? I don't see either returning to daytime. DeH, I can see returning to prime time. As for DrH, nice guy, I'm sure, but he simply does not seem a strong enough actor for any of the remaining soaps save, perhaps, for B&B, which thrives on camp.

    • Love this! You are both adorable. Wow
    • I have not gone back to watch much of 1987, but from what I've seen lately, it doesn't feel like the writers or producers had any sort of plan. The show feels as if it's constantly in flux.  I will give it credit for this. It's watchable for the most part minus Lisa/Jamie which I find nearly unwatchable now.   I don't find Cheryl mousy. I think she has a lot of quiet strength, but she was saddled with the Scott romance which the writers did not invest in. She had a good friendship with Julie (also criminally underused), and her interactions with Ada were enjoyable as well. I also like Layman, but Spencer was extremely talented and when Cass returns, Schnetzer and Spencer have some wonderful scenes. Spencer also fits in with Alexander, Hogan, and Marie.  I'd forgotten just how much I missed seeing Wallingford. IT was so good to see him again. Even when they didn't have a major plot, Felicia/Cass/Wallingford/Mitch always brings a smile to my face.

    • NBC must have been grateful to have LHOTP, it's only hit and still strong after several seasons. Their next established show was Rockford Files at 45th. They didn't develop any comedies and relied on movies and mini series  which didnt establish viewer loyalty and habits. Their only new hit was mid season's Project UFO which debuted Feb up against Rhoda/On Our Own on CBS and How the West Was Won on ABC. It opened with a strong 36 share beating CBS and close to ABC as HTWWW had a 36 share over 3 hours. The next week UFO saw a respectable 32 share, then a 31 so it was slipping. A 28 share followed but a few weeks later it jumped back up to a 34. So no blockbuster but compared to what else they had, there was potential, So next season NBC sent it to Thursday up against Mork and The Waltons and it bombed.  They were smart to see potential in Chips, which took off on Saturdaysnext season. ABC was on a roll with Love Boat, 3's Company, Taxi, Eight is Enough adding to their hits. Their only real flops were Redd Foxx and San Pedro Beach Bums, an Aaron Spelling misfire. Like Redd Foxx, Harvey Korman was lured to ABC but his series was a filler that did well but was considered a time slot hit. Nancy Walker and Rob Reiner were also given series on the philosophy that not only were they popular names, their absence from popular shows like Sanford, Rhoda and All in the Family might weaken those shows. CBS were relying on old favorites. Betty White was strong the first few weeks then faded. Incredible Hulk was their strongest newbie. It was lucky for CBS that NBC was doing so badly or else some of their weaker shows would have really suffered.
    • That outfit looks like something Martin would wear lol.
    • Omg not we both ran into people from the show this weekend!
    • I guess he was let out the gates, because he's outside. 
    • Yup.  You can hate John all you want, but like seriously he was the cornerstone of the show for years.  So he should get a long ass funeral and burial and all the things because Drake and John deserve that.
