Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 22, 2009 Members Share Posted July 22, 2009 OMG! I never thought I'd see Melissa Hayden again. I always loved Bridget, even when McTavish totally trashed the character. I started watching GL just before Bridget debuted in 1991 and I always loved her, this is SOO GREAT to see. EEE, Bridget, Ed, and Holly back, it kind of feels like the early 90's again (though clearly not on the writing front). Too bad Michael Zaslow is dead. I was never a big Dylan fan, but glad to see Englund back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 22, 2009 Members Share Posted July 22, 2009 LOL! He's played Dyland on and off since 1989. August is gonna be great in terms of seeing old characters I loved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members brimike Posted July 22, 2009 Members Share Posted July 22, 2009 My turn to be the balloon popper. (Sorry, A!) You do realize they're probably just going to be a bunch of glorified extras, don't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 22, 2009 Members Share Posted July 22, 2009 Yes, but oh well, never thought I'd see some of these actors again. LOL! I'm just happy to see them, since the show is gone in a few months anyway and totally sucks right now on the writing front. I don't expect them to lead any stories at this point, since there's no time, but knowing they'll be there as the show ends, feels satisfying.

Members brimike Posted July 22, 2009 Members Share Posted July 22, 2009 Fair enough - what can I say? I couldn't resist the urge to turn the tables. But seriously, you know what a huge Bridget fan I was/am. I admit it - I'll be tuning in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 22, 2009 Members Share Posted July 22, 2009 I wonder if they have enough money to replicate the old Bauer kitchen/living room. Will we get a scene where Ed, Bridget, and Michelle (I hate St. Alban's acting, but whatever) discuss Maureen and what it was like living together in the early 90's? I loved Bridget, it will be at least somewhat interesting to hear what's she's been up to since leaving Springfield. I wonder if she became as crazy as her aunt Nola in her later audlthood, who Nancy Curlee said she based Bridget on (and the similarities are apparent).

Members Soapsuds Posted July 22, 2009 Members Share Posted July 22, 2009 I hear Alicia Silverstone has been casted as a young Vanessa Chamberlain Lewis. I hope they bring back Mary Kay Adams. She was a big part of GL too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 22, 2009 Members Share Posted July 22, 2009 MKA is beautiful, and she had great chemistry with Beverlee Mckinsey's Alexandra (who I miss so much). But I don't know where and with who India would fit in with at this point, unless she just pays the Spaulding's a visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted July 22, 2009 Members Share Posted July 22, 2009 Well Phillip is dying...LOL. She could return for his funeral? India needs to return ..IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MichaelGL Posted July 22, 2009 Members Share Posted July 22, 2009 Eeek! I never thought I'd see Melissa Hayden back on GL or television again! I'm so excited to hear that she and Englund are coming back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted July 22, 2009 Members Share Posted July 22, 2009 Awww...that is sweet. REALDylan and Bridget back!! I just thought of two more I'd love to see...Greg Beecroft and Lisa Brown. As long as we're talking Reardons. Is the lady who played Bea still alive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 23, 2009 Members Share Posted July 23, 2009 Lee Lawson is still alive. I'm so happy! Melissa!!!! Bridget was one of the true underrated gems on GL in the first half of the 90s and the way she was written in her last few years broke my heart. I'm so glad she will be returning, even briefly. I wonder who she will share scenes with. Is this just for some Jeffrey memorial and she's returning with Dylan? I hope she will at least have scenes with Matt. Reardon power! And I'm glad that the last Dylan we'll see will be Morgan Englund. Brian Gaskill was horrible in the role, totally miscast. Morgan wasn't a great actor but he was right for Dylan and he had his moments. I also want to see him interact with Daisy, as I liked Morgan's brief scenes with Brittany Snow during his 1999 return. I wish they could have Nola and Quint back just for a day or two to make up for the horrible writing for them in 1995-1998. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted July 23, 2009 Members Share Posted July 23, 2009 I would love to see Nola back. I hear Greg Beecroft was difficult to work with. I remember Melanie Smith(ex-Emily..ATWT) saying that in an interview. But I did love Tony Reardon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dan Posted July 23, 2009 Author Members Share Posted July 23, 2009 I really, REALLY hate to be greedy, but there is still one more person who is desperately needed back on the show to say goodbye and that person (besides the near-impossible Jerry return) is Ellen Parker (Maureen). If they are to do what is rumored, then they should at least go all out with Maureen and Julie Bauer returning as a ghostly vision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
