Members Juliajms Posted May 30, 2009 Members Share Posted May 30, 2009 I never get tired of it. Just the other day I watched Cassie's death again and I lost it when Nadia's Theme started up. That's the moment you know there will be no miracle. The very first time around I had no idea Cassie was going to die until NT played. That said, I wouldn't mind a remix. I think MJ is about to get her shot at Jack because I think Sharon will leave him soon. Possibly Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cara mia Posted May 30, 2009 Members Share Posted May 30, 2009 Cassie's death. So not worth it. She & Sharon should be fighting over Daniel or JT or some other boy toy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MarkH Posted May 31, 2009 Members Share Posted May 31, 2009 Using Nadia's Theme like that is perfect. That's what I mean. Give us a new opening, and reserve it for those huge emotional moments. Remix is the right word. That's what I mean. Total disagreement. Total. FOUR YEARS of terrific story came from that death. Like, um, this weekend's cliffhanger. Plus Cassie has a twin. I'm POSITIVE of it. Yup. They used to play over closing credits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members classicmoment Posted May 31, 2009 Members Share Posted May 31, 2009 Doubt it. This dance will continue on into the next chapter, sadly this chapter is near end but not over. Next chapter seems as if it's going to tell the story from a couple perspective now insttead of breaking down from each character POV (at least that's my guess). This is Jack's breakdown. All in all I must say the general approach to have Sharon breakdown drive Phyllis over the edge and have Nick himself come apart because so much of him is intertwined with both women, then Jack who both loves and get hurt by all three was masterful. My problem is Jack's POV is not making as much sense as it should... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted May 31, 2009 Members Share Posted May 31, 2009 Thanks! That was a nice clip. I think I prefer the instrumental version, but it was nice to see Tracy and hear Gina sing again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cara mia Posted May 31, 2009 Members Share Posted May 31, 2009 Why did Cassie have to be the one to die? Why couldn't have been Noah? I like adult Noah but I wasn't attached to early kid Noah. That would have been a better story. Nick & Sharon still would have broken up, and we still could have had Phick. Cassie would have felt survivor's guilt and a sense of insecurity because she's not Nick's blood child. Pre-Reed, Victor would have all about a replacement grandson. I get the point of the dead kid, I just don't get why it had to be CG's Cassie. She should have the Lily role on canvas as the young ingenue.

Members MTSRocks Posted May 31, 2009 Members Share Posted May 31, 2009 That's exactly why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cashton Posted May 31, 2009 Members Share Posted May 31, 2009 I said it before and i'll say it again, the underlying reason was that CG was never going to be a great beauty, an the actress was so popular that to re-cast her would have been a disaster. The decision did bring about lots of drama for the show. Mark - why do you think Cassie has a twin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted May 31, 2009 Members Share Posted May 31, 2009 So, I see your point. But many of us loved Cassie. We literally saw her from preschool age, growing into a lovely and slightly awkward teen. So, killing her, in such a typical adolescent way had more impact than a nuclear bomb. Maybe Noah's death would have driven story for years...I acknowledge...but we (the audience) would not have felt it like we did Cassie's. This clip INSTANTLY puts me into tears. I doubt many other characters' deaths would have given us such a permanent, transcendent moment. In some other thread earlier this week, there was some discussion about storytellers and about soaps sort of exceeded their usual baseline. GH's "BJ's death" was referenced...a story that (even on history-weak GH) still resonates in the character of Maxie. So it is with Cassie's death. It is a moment as important in the history of this show as Phillip 3's death, of Jack stepping over Victor's lifeless body, and on and on. It is the DEFINING moment of Jack Smith's era, and it is his strongest contribution. This is just my opinion, of course, but Cassie's death is something I wouldn't change for anything. It has given me the best moments of the last four years. By the way, Joshua Morrow can't act (so I'm told). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
