She was cast as a stripper. It should have behooved her to practice a few moves on the off chance she was actually given a striptease scene. People crucified Undercover Stripper Antonio, but, at least, KdlR looked like he rehearsed.

I forgot all about stripper Antonio but Stacy's strip tease made me question if she was ever a stripper for hire and that's not a good thing.

Langston looked so pretty. I don't know what to make of Kyle. I want to like the idea of him but that's just it...there's a big BUT.

I do like how Jared ditched his own bachelor party.

I thought it was a little sad that she was never at a bachelorette party before.

It says so much about what a lonely, friendless girl she was. How becoming a stripper and getting male attention was the only thing close to "social connection" she ever felt. It explains why she is so dysfunctional vis-a-vis Rex. She doesn't know any other way....

It would make all the difference in the world if it was. I'll give Carlivati more time on this. He seems to think he can redeem Stacy and I'm curious to see if he can accomplish it.

JAI HO! Where's the dude that pops out during the video? LoL.

People have done worse than Stacey, so she's not irredeemable. However, I just don't think that Crystal Hunt has the ability to pull off a redemption arc, so they might as well just leave her as a vixen (with some depth).

Or at least with some more clothes on! Every time I tune into OL these days, there she is, passing off some contraption made entirely out of waxed floss as a dress.

    • I tried following the news in Los Angeles at https://laist.com (independent public radio and news) They had up-to-the minute accurate info during the wildfires in January. There's no video, no impact to my mind as to what's happening. Trying other outlets, to get the truth, but it's hard.  
    • That's a bit murky since that happened during a writers' strike. Assuming Kristen Marie had a 2-year contract she left about when her contract would have expired and Sharlene and Josie showed up right before that. Lemay was officially credited as HW from September 1988 but it seems very probable that his anticipated tenure influenced events that happened during the strike which started in April. 
    • I've seen so many posters over the years who are bright, creative, well-versed in soap history, and who care deeply about the integrity of the genre. I'd put the shows' chances in their hands a lot faster than I would allow any of the "usual suspects" to take control of the dramas they've already helped decimate. When I returned to university in the 1980s, I created a bible for a new soap and presented it in my screenwriting class. It was in reaction to how badly I saw the network shows being butchered at the time. The creative process was thrilling; a total joy, and I still smile when I remember the positive feedback I received from the professor and my fellow students. I was used to seeing written commentary from professors on my work. This one wrote me a long, complimentary note on the final page of the bible, but also graded it 97%, A+. I was beaming ear to ear for days!

    • Thanks. I do wonder if Rose was meant to be more given the caliber of actress they hired. I remembered Sara and Peggy staying longer as they were still on when Soapnet started their repeats. I wonder if that was part of the reason they brought Jake's brother in. 
    • Speculation about Missy Reeves' potential evolution on basic civil rights doesn’t change my opinion of her. My view is shaped entirely by her public social media presence—which I find unpalatable—and I have no interest in learning more beyond that. I simply liked Jennifer’s hair and dress. That’s as far as my admiration goes.

    • Cheryl was gone before Lemay came back but I agree with your thinking that he would rather a character from a family he introduced to the show than a family he did not originate.  I remember reading somewhere in the early 90's probably after DS left as writer, their was an either a writer or a producer who made a comment that their intent was bring the McKinnon family back to AW.  Would have made sense for the newer viewers from the 80's.  Much like Lemay's attempt to bring the Frames back from his writing in the 70's in his 1988 return
    • DePriest left in January 1988. According to the AWHP, Rose last appeared nearly a year before in February 1987 while both Sara and Peggy appeared as late as October 1987.
    • Annie was not brought in as an antagonist for Reva. Reva wasn’t even on the canvas when Annie first appeared in late 1994. 
    • The speculation……….very entertaining. 
    • I had forgotten that several Days stars came out strong against Melissa. Good for them!
