[Andrew]

For me it is shocking to see Suzanne Rogers (Maggie), with so many episodes, i find Maggie very irritating, but its a nice change too see her with so many episodes

[Jane1978]

I would love to know what happened with Peggy McCay. Did she park in producers parking lot? It´s weird to see Maggie replacing her even in the supporting scenes with Sami and/or Stephanie, even when Caroline is the family. But maybe she is sick.

Also, poor Abe. When he was part of the cop shop he had atleast some expository scenes here and there, but now as the major of Salem they really don´t know what to do with him. They cannot even do the traditional "Lexie: the slut" storyline, because Theo´s autism and Higley´s demand for a positive outcome.

Other than that you can tell there is no bias or personal vendetas against some actors/characters and the amount of airtime is stricly story dictated. I like that.
