Some Casting Notes: Walt Willey's Jack will be going to Europe off-screen for an undisclosed amount of time. Says AMC folk, "This is just the way the storyline is going now, nothing more." Maureen Garrett returns to GL on August 26. Dorothy Lyman (MAMA'S FAMILY; ex-Opal, AMC) will appear on GL on Aug 3.

They have a feature interview with Gina Tognoni. OLTL? "It's too early. I love daytime. I'm definitely open. In the last month and a half, things have changed a lot as far as what shows and where, so I'm sort of riding it out. Sooner or later, I'll know what I'm doing...I will wait for the right fit."

Thanks. How does the Nick proposing article lean, is this finally an article that talks about Phick or is it more about how it pertains to Shick/Sharon? We know Nick proposes to Phyllis so why is Sharon on the cover? Ugh.

It's much more Phick friendly than the past articles have been, though it continues to make Nick look like a dolt. One week he realizes this...one week he realizes that, etc. The Sharon stuff with Jack sounds awful too with her being all pissed about his daddy joy, bitch please! lol ... but oh, yeah look there she tells Jack the truth about the kid because he's annoying her. That means it may get to Nick and he may waffle again.

Thanks! Can you give this Phyllis fan some info? Are there any good quotes for Phick? It's been so long since there's been anything positive for them, I am just anxious to know how this will play out. Thanks again.

Hmm, does anyone else think we may not see Walt Wiley back on AMC? He has been seriously back burnered for a long time and it wouldn't surprise me if Jackson doesn't come back from Europe.

Poor Megan Ward. It makes me want to cry too.

It's Megan? I thought it might be Greg Vaughan.

So basically Jackson/Walt Willey is gone for good right?

It seems like they only re-signed him last year because he had been too prominent to just get rid of without any backlash. So they re-signed him for the sole purpose of phasing him out over the course of the year.

And now they are essentially firing a veteran of what...22 years?...without even admitting it.

Nick and Summer are watching N/P's wedding video, I believe, because it makes brain-damaged (2-year-old) Summer feel better. Phyllis comes home and thinks the scene of them together is cute but...tells him to make a choice - if he's going to be in their life, either be there or leave - no half-assing with her kid. Says Morrow, after that moment, "he realizes how tough and amazing Phyllis is...It's another reminder of why he fell in love with her in the first place. [He knows he should have never left Sharon but] he realizes he really was in love with Phyllis and he should've stayed with her." He passionately kisses Phyllis and proposes to her.

Poor Megan Ward. It makes me want to cry too.

Ward and the crying, she's talking about her fans on the internet and their support.

No, I think this is because of Walt's play with Jill Larson (Opal).

But then wouldn't TPTB have just said that? And if WW needed some time off for another project why send him to Europe when Jack is already frequently absent for weeks on end?

Plus WW's contract cycles are always up in July.

She's too good for GH!!!

I don't think Pratt has any interest in Jack or WW, cause I think if he did, we'd have gotten a Jerica reunion instead of Pratt doing Adam/Erica

Yea, this is suspicious. I guess time will tell.

Yea, him having little interest is obvious, as well as in JR or Beth. I think maybe if he could pair him with Krystal or Liza or someone else available fans might show interest, or at the very least outrage, and he'll get interested. I think he only cares about what he THINKS fans care about.

Is Walt getting the Reggie treatment?

Would love to see walt has a Gameshow host.

He gives up tons of time with his Family to do AMC so hopefully this isn't his sendoff?
