I like Shannon Kane and Natalia so I guess that's good news. But this raises another issue with the "Everyone on contract who wants to go will go" approach: What if Darnell and Debbi and Cornelius decide not to go? TPTB would still take SK?

She wouldn't have standing? On what planet? If I decided to switch coasts because I was told I would be able to keep my job if I made the move, only to be FIRED because of other people deciding not to move, you bet your sweet ass I'd sue. There's a thing called "breach of contract" for a reason -- and it works on BOTH ends.

And then my favorite cutie, Bill Christian, could come back as Derek and be the Chief of Police since he lives in LA and left the show prior to the Garret/Dragon storyline because he didn't want to be in New York full-time.

At this point, I don't care about Darnell. I hate his acting and Jesse's become such a tool, I can't stand the character, either.

She really wouldn't have standing. In acting, as long as your contract is honored, you have no recourse.

As long as she was paid through her latest 13-week cycle, they can fire her for any reason.....even pregnancy, as long as they don't say that's why, lol.

Hunter Tylo successfully sued Aaron Spelling at Melrose Place because first and foremost she had a signed contract, and he wasn't planning to give her any money at all (whereas he could've legally paid her for her first cycle, and said "c-ya")....and second, Spelling came right out and said, yeah, it's because she got pregnant, lol.

Think about how many actors have been fired in daytime because the "other half" of their couple chose to leave. From Beth Chamberlain at GL when Grant Aleksander chose to leave in the 90's, to Wendee Pratt when Kamar De Los Reyes chose to leave...it happens all the time. And they can't sue over it.

    • I just watched it, it was decent, looking forward to Martin's secret. Glad to get info on why the children were aged up!
    • !!! I felt the same. Martin secret has always been my favorite storyline.  I happen to Andre's wardrobe but it ages him. They have a grandpa vibe.

      , Facts! I would like to see something like that in Daytime. Both of y'all can back up off my husband! Tomas couldn't shine his shoes.
    • Brandy was an odd mish-mash of a character. A radical during her college days, then a journalist/romance writer, I believe? But not so much of a radical that she had a problem chasing millionaire Alan, LOL. The actress, JoBeth Williams, went on to have a pretty good movie and prime time career.
    • Bill attempts to use Smitty to send a veiled thread to Martin.

      Thought I’d share this video featuring Cathy Carricaburu, now Foxhoven, who played Nancy Becker from 1976-1978.

      She talks a little about her acting career starting around the 6 minute mark and briefly mentions Y&R. I’d be interesting to see some of her work on Y&R since it seems to be her most notable role.
    • I believe Henry Slesar intended that the Paige/Nola plot would play out over three to six months and Paige would be the new younger ingenue; but a few things happened. Sharon Gabet didn't renew her contract and the audience didn't like the Paige/Brian romance as it flirted with incest. Kim Hunter revealed in an interview that she as slated for 3 months but Henry asked her to stay on for an additional period. I watched Edge during this period when it originally aired and Margaret Colin was not great in the role. She seemed very green among the vets as was the dude playing Brian. He was poorly cast which was unusual for Edge.  I think Henry started to get pressure from ABC and P&G to jazz up the show given what was exploding under Monty on GH at the time. I loved Kim as Nola and all the stories it generated for others. Miles and Deborah in particular. But the next who dunnit plot in this period was not one of Henry's best (at least for me the culprit and explanation were lame for Henry). 
    • Bill and the performer are the strongest male character and actor on this show.  Yeah, how I see it too. you pair your best young female with one of the weakest screams sabotage to me.  I like this idea, it doesn't make things too predictable. I would buy that!
