All: What Stories would you re-write

[BadBoy93]

GH:The Texas Messege Killer storyline would have never occured sparing Luticia,Emily,Georgie & Coop from death and keeping Diego dead

Stefan and Stavros would have put into a coma after both returned in 2004 to try and kill Luke Spencer

[Gray Bunny]

For DAYS...

... Basically everything from 2003 till today could be wiped out and I wouldn't care.

...The Tony that came back in 2002 was the real Tony or another Andre. I prefer to think of the Tony of 1995 to be the real Tony. But even so, everything involving the character 2003 and on needs to be wiped from history.

... Salem Stalker of 2003-2004 never happened, as well as anything that resulted from it (Captive Island, the castle, etc.)

... Dr. Alex North never happened. Like we are to believe this man was never mentioned or known to anyone else in Marlena's life?!

... Chelsea never killed Zack.

... Chelsea wasn't the dead Swamp baby reincarnated. In fact, Chelsea never should've existed.

... The Austin/Sami/Lucas/Carrie redux of 2005-2006 never happened.

... EJ isn't Elvis.

... The Lockharts never existed other than the dayplayer family we met in 2000 when Mimi's house was built.

... Josh Taylor was never Roman.

... Ugh, I can go on and on. But really, anything from 2003 and on could be just a bad dream of Alice's.

For GL...

... Instead of the Reva clone, it could've been Annie Dutton with plastic surgery to look like Reva. It's outlandish, but it would've been easier for viewers to believe than human cloning and rapid growth serums.

... Hart Jessup would still be alive somehow, courtesy of Roger Thorpe.

... Maryanne Carruthers never happened.

... Josh & Cassie never happened.

... Jeffrey O'Neill never came to town.

... Jonathan would come to town back when Reva was being stalked in early 2003... HE would've been her stalker, not Alex, who also never would've been the druglord in 2004.

... Ava never came to town.

... Sebastian Hulce wouldn't have gone batsh!t crazy on Holly and become a sleazy perv in general.

... Gus & Harley would never have broken up and never gotten the chance to reunite.

... Jenna Bradshaw didn't die.

... Holly never became a psycho kidnapper... just a crazy boozer to cope with losing Meg & Fletcher.

... Ben Reade confided in India to get money instead of resorting to escorting (she offered help at any time, because his mother, Maeve, was a dear friend to her)

... Daisy/Susan was never re-introduced. Instead, we would just remember Brittany Snow's version of her and wonder why they never mentioned her again.

... Without Jeffrey existing, there never would've been Jeffrey/Marah or Jeffrey/Reva.

... The Michelle/Tony coupling never happened. Instead, Tony left for good when Jordi Vilasuso vacated the role.

... GL leads the gay bandwagon in 2003 by having Shayne be a big flaming homosexual.

ATWT

Noah and Luke never got together. Noah fought off Luke's desperate advances and stayed with his girlfriend, Maddie. Luke came to his senses and found...you know...a guy who is actually gay or at least really bi.

[CSF]

For GH: Everything from 1997 on.

For GL: Everything from 1994 on.

For Y&R: Everything under LML and MAB, and Alden's rewrite of Jill's family.

[MichaelGL]

Sigh GL....

GL

Either A.) Maureen never died or B.) Eve never would have become such a bore

A.)Who knows a Fletcher/Maureen/Ed triangle might have ensued? A custody battle perhaps?

2003-Present

-Jonathan was Reva's stalker not Alex.

-After Olivia left Alan for Phillip: Phillip would seek some distance between him and the Spaulding name, thus changing his last name to Marler and turning down the Spaulding money. He would focus on his writing. Meanwhile Olivia would find it difficult to stay away from the corporate world, and the Spaulding money. She would hide her opposition to the idea of Phillip not embracing his inner Spaulding and all the things that came with it. Alan would see this and try to lure Olivia away, not because he still loved her, but for revenge. However Olivia doesn't fall for the bait. It's then that A-M would have returned to town and secretly recruited Olivia to help him wrestle control of Spaulding from Alex. A-M also recruits Blake to help him wrestle control of Spaulding, but neither woman knows that they are working for the same man. At the Spaulding board meeting, A-M would reveal his take over of Spaulding, stunning Blake and Olivia that the two of them helped him take over Spaulding, which gains the fury of both women. What will anger the two women even further is that A-M would split the VP position into two, giving it to both Blake and Olivia, and which would be the birth of a new feud. As time progressed, A-M would try to get back together with Blake, who's on the outs with Ross bc she returned to her scheming ways to get A-M control of Spaulding. However when Blake rejects A-M's advances on a business trip, he sleeps with Olivia, who's on the outs with Phillip after he learned she helped A-M's take over of Spaulding.

-Bill/Michelle would have ended up together and lived happily ever after.

-Danny/Cassie would have ended up together, and would go into the witness protection program and away from Springfield forever.

-Gus's parentage would have been up in the air, between Alan-Spaulding and Ed Bauer. He was Rita Stapleton's son, and she fled from Springfield because she was pregnant, and not sure who the father was.

2005 and on...

-Annie had plastic surgery to look like Reva's sister, and took Cassie's place, thus she was the one that seduced Josh.

-Alan-Michael and Dinah would have paired up and become GL's new "it" couple. The story between the two would start off smoothly, but with A-M's philandering ways, Dinah and A-M would become involved in a constant love/hate relationship.

-Phillip would have never gone insane, instead after a heated confrontation with Alan about their complicated relationship, Phillip seeks a shrink to help him sort out his issues, dating back to when he learned he was never a Spaulding. Felicia Boudreau would be his doctor.

-Sebastian would have become a character who would be a force to be reckoned with in the business world. He and Blake would team up to gain control of Spaulding, while there would have been a A-M/Dinah/Sebastian triangle.

-If Marina had kept her spunk(which hasn't been seen since Dollar was in the role), she would have been a perfect partner for Jonathan.

-Sandy Foster would be revealed to be Josh’s son by Sonni, and not Reva’s He did know Jonathan back in Switzerland, but took his place only to cover his tracks after the incident they had where Jonathan was thought to be dead, and bc he thought he’d be accepted easier into the family if he was Jonathan and not some illegitimate child of Josh’s.

OLTL

Ron (shakes head).....

Shortly after the Go-Red Ball, Allison's secret would have been that Jessica was actually Clint's daughter, not Mitch's. Roxy has always known this, but has kept quiet because Rex is actually Mitch's son and she wanted to protect him from his wrath.

[BadBoy93]

GL - Phillip not going insane and being some evil villian in 2004.That was Fd up.

[danthig]

Here are my choices on the subject:

All my children:

Dixie would be alive and raising Kate with Tad.

Josh wouldn't be killed but in a coma in Switzerland

As the world Turns

Rosanna would never have had a hysterectomy.

Paul and Emily's stillborn baby Jenny would be alive.

Meg's miscarried son would be alive and not Paul's but Craig's son.

Jennifer Munson would never have been killed off

The 2005 baby switch would have never happened.

Margo would not act like a keystone cop.

Jack wouldn't get back with Carly ever.

B&B

Kill off Ridge and Taylor freeing Brooke of that triangle.

DAYS

Bring Back Marlena and Carrie.

Guiding Light

Phillip and Ross would have never been killed off.

Y&R

Oltl:

Megan Gordon would be alive.

[Gray Bunny]

I'd love it if there were a secret twist (and therefore a secret deal with CBS & ABC) and during GL's final week, Ross Marler came home to Blake. Then he could give a fabulous final speech, as he was always excellent at doing.

[ClassicsSoapFan]

ATWT

I would have loved for Lorraine Broderick to have never been replaced by Leah Laiman.

If they had to add Hogan Sheffer,start him off writing scripts and then as a Breakdown writer first.

Much later promote him as a co HW before making him a HW.

GL

I would have loved for Millee Taggart and Carolyn Culliton to have never been replaced by Ellen Weston.

I would have wished that there be no budget crises for these soaps and the EP's stay out of the writing department and let their writer's write.

These people would have never left their show:

Peter Simon (GL)

Maureen Garrett (GL)

Maeve Kinkaed (GL)

Jerry ver Dorn (GL)

Beth Ehlers (GL)

Ricky Paull Goldin (GL)

Martha Byrne (ATWT)

Tom Wiggin (ATWT)

Lisa Brown (ATWT)

Tamara Tunie (ATWT)

Peter Parros (ATWT)

Larry Bryggman (ATWT)

These couples never tampered with

Ed and Holly (GL)

Blake and Ross (GL)

Phillip and Beth (GL)

Harley and Gus (GL)

Holden and Lilly (ATWT)

Jack and Carly (ATWT)

Tom and Margo (ATWT)

Ben and Jessica (ATWT)

[RomeAt50]

I'm a little confused. Do you not want Luke and Noah together because you don't buy Noah as gay or do you just want Luke with someone else?

AMC

-Unabortion would have never happened

-Zarf never would have existed

-Babe never would have come to town

-Stuart would not have been murdered

-Di and Dixie would still be alive

-Mary Smythe would not have left the show

-Ryan would have never returned

-Zach would have never fathered Gabrielle

-The Madden buried alive story never would have happened

[All My Shadows]

Notsomuch that I don't buy Noah as gay, I just don't buy him as being attracted to Luke. But who would be attracted to that whiny, weepy mess?

[J. Keith H.]

I was going to say GL from the mid 90's to the present but someone beat me to it.

[Shiner]

OLTL:

I would change the whole Nora sleeping with Sam to give Bo a child.

I also would change the whole Jess isn't a Buch.

[DRW50]

There is so much I would like to change, but I really really want to change the writing for the Lord family over the past 15+ years.

I don't think they should have made Todd the Lord heir. In the long run he has added nothing to the family and has actually caused them great harm.

I don't think they should have brought Powell back as the KAD killer. And let's not even talk about Rebecca!

I don't think they should have casually rewrote Tina into being a deadbeat mother who all but abandoned her children to run schemes with Cain.

I don't think Tina should have returned at all last year.

I don't think any incarnation of Sarah Roberts in this decade should have happened.

I don't think they should have made Jessica Mitch's daughter. Natalie has been a good addition to the family but there were other ways of making her a Buchanan. The thought of Mitch drugging and raping Viki in the Llanfair living room still upsets me to this day, both for the utter stupidity and the ugliness.

I don't think they should have had Niki taking young Jessica out with her and getting her molested. NIKI WAS NOT LIKE THAT.

I don't think they should have brought Victor back from the dead.

[Bright Eyes]

WORD to all of this. One other thing about the Lord family, I would mention Meredith once and awhile. The only sane Lord! It pisses me off when they have prime opportunities to do so and they don't.
