Members jcar03 Posted January 23, 2009 Members Share Posted January 23, 2009 In the 2/10 issue of Digest, we report that Maura West (Carly, ATWT) and husband Scott DeFreitas (ex-Andy) will welcome baby No. 5 later this year. The couple's brood already includes Joseph, who will be 9 in March, Katherine, 7, Basil, 2, and Benjamin, 12, from West's first marriage. Word is that the pregnancy will not be written in. http://www.soapoperadigest.com/news/breaking/ I meant to put ATWT Star Expecting, if a mod could fix that.

Members SalemPlace Posted January 23, 2009 Members Share Posted January 23, 2009 Congrats to Maura!!! Hopefully she won't be gone too long this time. She was gone for what seemed like forever 2 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members All My Shadows Posted January 23, 2009 Members Share Posted January 23, 2009 Congrats! If Scott DeF was my husband, yeah, I'd probably be pregnant every other year too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BadZoe Posted January 24, 2009 Members Share Posted January 24, 2009 Ha I turned into ATWTS last week and said to my mom, that one playing Carly is preggers again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted January 24, 2009 Members Share Posted January 24, 2009 I thought for sure this would be about Martha Byrne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darn Posted January 24, 2009 Members Share Posted January 24, 2009 How do you go from Benjamin, Katherine and Joseph to...Basil? But whatever, congrats to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BadZoe Posted January 24, 2009 Members Share Posted January 24, 2009 Maybe she was inspired by Sage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jfung79 Posted January 24, 2009 Members Share Posted January 24, 2009 Congrats to them! But maybe this time, ATWT should do a temporary recast while she is on maternity leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jcar03 Posted January 24, 2009 Author Members Share Posted January 24, 2009 Lets not do a temp recast. They could just pre-tape stuff with her for her maternity leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SteveFrame Posted January 24, 2009 Members Share Posted January 24, 2009 I have no problem with a temp recast. It has been done many times in the past while people were on maternity leave. Often those pretaped scenes seem weird when they are intertwined back with the current stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted January 25, 2009 Members Share Posted January 25, 2009 Temp recasts always suck. Yes, sometimes they are necessary evils (and let's hope that it won't become medically necessary). But you can't just stick some random blonde in there to "be" Carly. I'd much rather TIIC give Carly a less-than-character-assassinating reason to leave town for a while, than throw some Carly-lite version into the fire. With the scaled back airtime for everyone thanks to budget cuts, they wouldn't have to pre-tape nearly as much to cover at least part of the maternity leave.

Members Cheap21 Posted January 25, 2009 Members Share Posted January 25, 2009 not always. There are quite a few examples of the temp being just as good, if not better than the person they are replacing.
