Members DRW50 Posted October 30, 2009 Members Share Posted October 30, 2009 My problem isn't with Eva - I actually preferred Maria in the botched return to the smug Saint Maria of the Push-Up Bra, the doctor who didn't even know she was pregnant for five months - as much as I just don't see why she is coming back. Aidan is going, Zach is going, and she probably won't have any scenes with them anyway. If they're just bringing her back to have a scene with Mateo, then why not use this money to have returns for classic characters who still have relatives in town? I would love to see Nick Davis return one last time and ask Erica why she is hanging all over Ryan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted October 31, 2009 Members Share Posted October 31, 2009 IA. KC's Janet was reminiscent of a Disney villian. She was great for laughs but I could not take her seriously Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members stix Posted October 31, 2009 Members Share Posted October 31, 2009 But are we supposed to take Janet From Another Planet seriously? Personally, I'm not so sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members You're Soaking in it Posted October 31, 2009 Members Share Posted October 31, 2009 You really couldn't NOT take her seriously once Mattson took over the role... no matter what planet she came from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted October 31, 2009 Members Share Posted October 31, 2009 It's not an All My Children anniversary without Nick Davis present, kthxbye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members stix Posted October 31, 2009 Members Share Posted October 31, 2009 Oh I completely agree...but I think that Kate Collins' Janet is the 'true' Janet, if that makes any sense. Robin's character is more Jane Cox than Janet Green IMO. I agree about Nick Davis being necessary, though he would seem so out of place in 2010's Pine Valley.

Members Jonathan Posted October 31, 2009 Author Members Share Posted October 31, 2009 Nick Davis should come to town and shoot Zach. In fact, he should shoot all the deadweight on the show, just take them out one by one: Randi, Bailey, Marissa, etc. How awesome would that be? Then we can start fresh.

Members quartermainefan Posted October 31, 2009 Members Share Posted October 31, 2009 I wish there was a way to bring Palmer back even for just one episode. Daisy too and then they go off to live happily ever after. Others I would bring back are Chuck, Donna, Benny, Tom, Brooke, Nina, Cliff, Mark and Ellen.

Members Vee Posted October 31, 2009 Members Share Posted October 31, 2009 There's no excuse not to bring back Brooke. Even I miss that old otter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted October 31, 2009 Members Share Posted October 31, 2009 No, none at all. "Otter", I'm laughing and I feel bad about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Pine Charles Posted October 31, 2009 Members Share Posted October 31, 2009 Same here. That coupling ruined the character of Janet. I liked RM in the role, but it was all downhill after the Trevor hookup. I could understand him tolerating Janet (for Amanda's sake), but actually falling in love with and marrying her?! It was too much. And to everyone who thinks KC's Janet is too over-the-top: I'm not saying Janet has to be totally batsh!t crazy again. KC only plays her like that when it's written that Janet is off her medication. She is capable of playing it more subtle (nutty, but not over-the-top): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members You're Soaking in it Posted October 31, 2009 Members Share Posted October 31, 2009 Well, that's the material - which she pulled off well, whether we like the direction or not. I still prefer Mattson's version. KC's Janet was pretty much whatever Natalie was not... and that was it. Mattson's Janet was far more than just the "kooky opposite of her sister" - she fleshed out an entire character of her own, well beyond being defined by Natalie. I see Mattson as a whole character of her own, and KC's version as a counterpoint to Nat. But, you know, different strokes for different folks...
