Scannell certainly has the look but the chemistry between Julie Osburn and Stephen Schnetzer was so unique and wonderful that I'd rather remember it fondly than risk a pale imitation of it.

Then again, Schnetzer did have chemistry with almost everyone, so who knows?

SS as Cass Rating & Ranking

1 Frankie A++

1 Kathleen A+ *

3 Lila C

4 Nicole D

6 Felicia romantically F

5 Cecile romantically D

* When Kathleen came back, IOW, her second tenure with Cass, an attempt at least, this is not tied for 1 nor does it get an A. It was like a C-, not an epic failure but also not a success.

Obviously this is totally subjective.

Thanks, tep for the idea.

You've done an admirable job of giving MDP a fair chance. No need to torture yourself. Also it's Philece impersonating Donna not the real deal Anna Stuart. 

In 1989, have you gotten to the week of Felicia's birthday yet?

I have a thing about that week. 

So, all along for years, fans ask me things about AW. One thing I was asked over & over was if I had any pictures of Linda Dano with long hair. By that they meant when she had the hair extensions in, which dates to that week in 1989 & the birthday bash with the Room of Mirrors where Jason Frame was shot. 

Well, I looked & looked & there simply were NO pictures. I figure Linda hated them & had them destroyed or something, maybe. So, I did screenshots so now I have those pix.

I think that's what I'm going to do. I may try again in a different time, but for now I'll pass. I plan to drag my husband into watching AW with me, so I may have to watch October-December 1988 again with him. It will be a pleasure.

We clearly weren't meant to see Kathleen and Cass as a proper couple in her second go-round. They had almost no fun moments together. 

At their best I would put them over Cass and Frankie. Stephen and Alice worked well together but I find the relationship overrated and a bit dreary at times. 

I would give Cass and Lila a B.

Oh, yeah, the writing definitely had it out for them. 

I would suspect that about half of Cass fans go with one & half with the other. From a competition perspective, they'd have to be called well-matched. 

I'm quite furious the new Digest special edition "50 greatest couples" does not list Steve & Alice at all. 

I am possibly a bit weird about Miss Lila because I really & truly thought she was perfectly suited to Matt. 

Have you thought about the fact that Baby Jasmine is now in her mid-twenties?

Thanks for playing my RATE CASS's Ladies game.

 

They should have! I swear they wrote him so boring. Just an attorney, period. What a waste!!!

    • He needs to divorce her arse with her constant cheating.   She's no better than Doug... she's F*cking pathetic.
    • I didn't know of any interruptions for Maeve Kinkead after her 1997 return. Her runs would then be 1981-1987, 1989-1996, 1997-2000, short arcs until the end. I knew Maureen Garrett second run was interrupted from a 2009 interview but I couldn't recall the exact year. Her runs would then be 1976-1980, 1988-2000, short arcs until the end.
    • As I said in May, I have no problem with Martin and Bradley being married. You can still do all the fun introloper storylines with them as you do everyone else. Both men of a certain age, and it is very believable for them to have either a first love or have been previously married. And, you can do it without either of them cheating!

       I said something similar during the premiere week. Bill was the perfect age to play Martin as Vernon and Anita's child. I would've much preferred this version, but oh well.
    • I don't know how you want to count Maeve. She "retired" in '00, but would come back for appearances. I don't know however if she made an appearance in '01 or '03. In '02 I believe she came back for Josh and Reva's wedding. I assume she came back when Gina Tognoni took over the role of Dinah. And I know she was back for Ross' memorial service. Maureen Garrett was around until at least '00. I don't think Holly was in town when Ben returned though. I just got pissed off about Jerry all over again.
    • So, pretty sure Zaslow, Garrett, Kinkead, and Newman all chose to leave the first time. (If that's wrong, please correct me). Bernau - not sure why he left the first time. Was it voluntary? Or did they decide to write him out? They were writing so many out during that time period. It always seemed odd to me that they introduced Alex, FINALLY giving him someone he could talk to, and then he was written out. Or maybe that's why they made Alex his sister, so she could take his place as the head of the Spaulding family? Would love more intel on that if anyone knows. Simon - was he replaced by RVV? Or did he voluntarily leave the first time? It seems to me like one of those times TPTB decided to sex up or glamorize a character (and it clearly flopped). If he was fired, interesting he came back. Again, would love if someone could spill the tea. Clarke - I've always assumed he left because of his personal issues, but not sure if that was the case the first time.
    • So Doug just leaves Vanessa there with Joey? He's a f*cking loser. Vanessa needs to divorce his arse 
    • Tina Sloan tied Jerry VerDorn record when Guiding Light was cancelled - 26 years uninterrupted 
    • Very true...but TPTB all were desperate to get into prime time or films and couldn't, so they looked down on their own industry and tried to infuse themes that just didn't work in soaps. I would have thought after 9/11 the shows would have gone out of their way to provide that warmth and comfort that the audience wanted, and to bring old viewers back. Budget cuts? Just bring back kitchen sets, both ATWT and GL got rid of those besides one each..(the Snyders and the Bauers) You don't need super fancy sets if you have the writing. 
    • LMAO they didn't
